What Is Primitive in Mesembryanthemaceae? an Analysis of Evolutionary Polarity of Character States
S.Afr.J. Bot., 1989,55(3): 321-331 321 What is primitive in Mesembryanthemaceae? An analysis of evolutionary polarity of character states V. Bittrich* and M. Struck Institut fUr Allgemeine Botanik und Botanischer Garten der Universitat Hamburg, Ohnhorststr. 18, D-2000 Hamburg 52, West Germany Accepted 16 November 1988 Characters of the family Mesembryanthemaceae are investigated with respect to their state (primitive or derived) within this family. Out-group comparison with the closely related family Aizoaceae s.str. (excl. Mesembryanthemaceae) is used mainly, along with some other criteria. A tabulated survey of the characters discussed is provided. By combination of all characters considered as primitive, a morphotype (,hypothetical ancestor') of the Mesembryanthemaceae can be constructed. It is shown that no extant taxon possesses all features of this morphotype, but that all have acquired a number of derived characters. The possibility of the meronectary being a further synapomorphy of the family is discussed. A new synapomorphy for the subfamily Mesembryanthemoideae, namely the absence of expanding sheets on the valves of the hygrochastic capsule, is provided. The fundamental splitting of the Mesembryanthemaceae in two monophyletic subfamilies (Mesembryanthemoideae and Ruschioideae) is further supported by the results. Kenmerke van die familie Mesembryanthemaceae word, met betrekking tot hul toestand (primitief of afgelei) binne die familie, ondersoek. Buitegroep-vergelyking met die naverwante familie Aizoaceae s. str. (wat die Mesembryanthemaceae uitsluit) word hoofsaaklik, saam met ander kriteriums gebruik. 'n Getabuleerde oorsig van die kenmerke onder bespreking, word voorsien. Deur middel van 'n kombinasie van al die kenmerke wat as primitief beskou word, kan 'n morfotipe (hipotetiese voorouer) van die Mesembryanthemaceae gekonstrueer word.

Some Major Families and Genera of Succulent Plants
SOME MAJOR FAMILIES AND GENERA OF SUCCULENT PLANTS Including Natural Distribution, Growth Form, and Popularity as Container Plants Daniel L. Mahr There are 50-60 plant families that contain at least one species of succulent plant. By far the largest families are the Cactaceae (cactus family) and Aizoaceae (also known as the Mesembryanthemaceae, the ice plant family), each of which contains about 2000 species; together they total about 40% of all succulent plants. In addition to these two families there are 6-8 more that are commonly grown by home gardeners and succulent plant enthusiasts. The following list is in alphabetic order. The most popular genera for container culture are indicated by bold type. Taxonomic groupings are changed occasionally as new research information becomes available. But old names that have been in common usage are not easily cast aside. Significant name changes noted in parentheses ( ) are listed at the end of the table.

Population Dynamics of Translocated Frithia Humilis, an Endangered Sandstone Endemic
Population dynamics of translocated Frithia humilis, an endangered sandstone endemic PG Jansen 22174788 Dissertation submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree Magister Scientiae in Environmental Sciences at the Potchefstroom Campus of the North-West University Supervisor: Prof SJ Siebert Co-supervisor: Dr F Siebert Assistant Supervisor: Prof J van den Berg May 2017 PREFACE Translocation of plants in South Africa is still poorly studied and seldom used as a conservation tool. Thus, the translocation of Frithia humilis for conservation purposes can be seen as a first for South Africa. Consequently, a monitoring programme was initiated to assess the feasibility of translocation as a conservation tool for this species. This study is considered to be the second phase of the monitoring program and aims to determine the long term feasibility of translocation, since the previous study determined whether F. humilis could survive the translocation process and successfully reproduce at the receptor sites. The objectives were to study the population to quantify and compare the: (i) pollination system over time and between receptor and control sites; (ii) fecundity over time and between receptor and control sites; and (iii) population structure over time and between receptor and control sites. The dissertation is divided into seven chapters. Chapter 1. Discusses project history, species account, aims and objectives, hypotheses and dissertation layout. Chapter 2. Discusses translocation challenges, factors influencing success and failure and guidelines. Chapter 3. Describes the study area, study sites and methodology. Chapter 4. The findings of observations and identification of potential pollinators are given and primary and reserve pollinators are suggested.

Presenting Plants for Show—Information for Exhibitors
CACTUS and SUCCULENT SOCIETY of NEW MEXICO P.O. Box 21357 Albuquerque, New Mexico 87154-1357 http://www.new-mexico.cactus-society.org PRESENTING PLANTS FOR SHOW—INFORMATION FOR EXHIBITORS It is perhaps a good idea to first point out some of the benefits to all concerned of entering plants in the Society’s shows. The show is an educational effort by the club for the public, which allows them to see beautiful plants that are new to them, to learn something about the types of succulents that exist, and to find out how they should look when properly cared for. It is useful to the Society in the acquisition of new members, the education of recent members, and the study and display of the plants for all members. Then, it is useful for the entrant to learn how the results of his/her cultivation methods compare to those of others, to learn the names and near relatives of his/her plants, and to show off the results of his/her work, as well as to participate in the above-mentioned educational efforts. Finally, it is good for the plants. As usual, first-, second-, and third-place ribbons will be awarded in each category or subcategory (as decided by the judges), as well as honorable mention ribbons, as deemed appropriate. However, additionally the judges will determine the best of designated plant categories for rosette awards, as well as a Sweepstakes Award (see page 2). Some helpful hints to exhibitors are: Plants should be in good condition: not etiolated (growing too fast toward the light), badly scarred or sunburned, or malformed because of improper cultural conditions.

A Bimodal Pollination System Enhances Reproductive Potential of Translocated Populations of an Endangered Grassland Succulent
KOEDOE - African Protected Area Conservation and Science ISSN: (Online) 2071-0771, (Print) 0075-6458 Page 1 of 13 Original Research A bimodal pollination system enhances reproductive potential of translocated populations of an endangered grassland succulent Authors: A major concern during the translocation of higher plant species is related to habitat suitability 1 Peter G. Jansen and the availability of pollination services. Should these not meet the requirements of the Stefan J. Siebert1 Frances Siebert1 plant, then successful reproduction and establishment cannot occur. We studied an endangered Johnnie van den Berg1 succulent, Frithia humilis, which had previously been translocated to typical and atypical Anine Jordaan2 habitats, to assess the occurrence of potential pollinators at these sites. Insects visiting F. humilis flowers and showing signs of pollen were captured, preserved and studied using a scanning Affiliations: electron microscope. Pollen of F. humilis was searched for. Abundance and diversity patterns 1Unit for Environmental Sciences and Management, of these pollen carriers across edaphic habitats of translocated populations were compared North-West University, with those in a natural occurring population.
