Muelleria 33: 85–95 Published online in advance of the print edition, 21 April 2015. Nomenclature, variation and hybridisation in Rough Blown-grass (Poaceae: Lachnagrostis) Austin J. Brown National Herbarium of Victoria, Royal Botanic Gardens Melbourne, Birdwood Avenue, South Yarra 3141, Victoria, Australia; tel: +61 3 9252 2300; e-mail: [email protected] Introduction Abstract Variation in Rough Blown-grass (also known as Ruddy, Even or Meagre The name Lachnagrostis scabra ‘(P. Blown-grass) has been previously examined by Brown (2006) with the Beauv.) Nees ex Steud.’ for Rough Blown-grass is found to be a result that Lachnagrostis aequata (Nees) S.W.L.Jacobs (syn. Agrostis misapplication of Lachnagrostis scabra aequata Nees) and L. scabra ‘(P.Beauv.) Nees ex Steud.’ (syn. Agrostis scabra Nees ex Steud. (currently known R.Br. non Willd.) were considered to be the same taxon. In addition, it was as Agrostis pilosula Trin.): an Asiatic found that the name L. aequata had been misapplied to a Tasmanian taxon not found in Australia. The montane taxon, which was subsequently described as L. morrisii A.J.Br. correct name for Rough Blown-grass is Lachnagrostis rudis (Roem. & Schult.) Recent doubt expressed in Tropicos (2014) and APC (2014) concerning Trin. A dwarf form of the species the status of Vilfa scabra P.Beauv. as a new name or a new combination from Flinders Island is described as for A. scabra Willd. or A. scabra R.Br. respectively, has initiated a closer L. rudis subsp. nana A.J.Br., based examination of the name L. scabra Nees ex Steud. -

Conserv. 11, – (2003) Journal for © Urban & Fischer Verlag http://www.urbanfischer.de/journals/jnc Nature Conservation Constructing Red Numbers for setting conservation priorities of endangered plant species: Israeli flora as a test case Yuval Sapir1*, Avi Shmida1 & Ori Fragman1,2 1 Rotem – Israel Plant Information Center, Dept. of Evolution, Systematics and Ecology,The Hebrew University, Jerusalem, 91904, Israel; e-mail: [email protected] 2 Present address: Botanical Garden,The Hebrew University, Givat Ram, Jerusalem 91904, Israel Abstract A common problem in conservation policy is to define the priority of a certain species to invest conservation efforts when resources are limited. We suggest a method of constructing red numbers for plant species, in order to set priorities in con- servation policy. The red number is an additive index, summarising values of four parameters: 1. Rarity – The number of sites (1 km2) where the species is present. A rare species is defined when present in 0.5% of the area or less. 2. Declining rate and habitat vulnerability – Evaluate the decreasing rate in the number of sites and/or the destruction probability of the habitat. 3. Attractivity – the flower size and the probability of cutting or exploitation of the plant. 4. Distribution type – scoring endemic species and peripheral populations. The plant species of Israel were scored for the parameters of the red number. Three hundred and seventy (370) species, 16.15% of the Israeli flora entered into the “Red List” received red numbers above 6. “Post Mortem” analysis for the 34 extinct species of Israel revealed an average red number of 8.7, significantly higher than the average of the current red list. -

The Mediterranean Island of Alboran: a Review of Its Flora and Vegetation
Fitosociologia 39 (1) - 15-21, 2002 O Società Italiana di Fitosociologia The Mediterranean Island of Alboran: a review of its flora and vegetation J. E Mota, A. J. Sola, A. Aguilera, M. I. Cemllo & E. D. Dana Dpto. Biologia Vegeta1y Ecologia. Universidad de Almeria. E-04120, Almeria; e-mail: [email protected] Abstract The island of Alboran lies in the middle of the Alboran Sea (Mediterranean Sea, South Spain) and is characterised by high mean temperatures and scarce precipitation. Its botanical irnportance led the authors to analyse the floristic changes occurred through the XIX and XX centuries as related to the increased human pressure on the Isle, as well as to elucidate the significant environmental variables causing the observed vegetation patterns by anaìysing published relevès. It can be concluded that the flora of this island has been dramatically affected by temporary or permanent human presence: some species have come into extinction while others have been progressively introduced into the island as newcomers -in our visits to the island five neophytes have been recorded-. Despite the low species richness of the area, historically the island has harboured four endemic taxa: Anacyclus alboranensis, Senecio alboranicus, Frankenia corymbosa subsp. alboranensis and Diplotaxis siettiana, although the latter species is practically extinct in the wild nowadays. Man-disturbance and, to a lesser extent, edaphic salts content are probably the environmental parameters influencing themost the species distribution and floristic composition of the island plant communities. Consequently, disappearance of some particu- lar habitats +.g. unsteady sandy soils- and creation and over-representation of new man-made habitats are highlighted as the main factor responsible for the flonstic variations accounted in the Isle of Alboran throughout the last two centuries. -

Aliso 23, pp. 335-348 © 2007, Rancho Santa Ana Botanic Garden A PRELIMINARY PHYLOGENETIC ANALYSIS OF THE GRASS SUBFAMILY POOIDEAE (POACEAE), WITH ATTENTION TO STRUCTURAL FEATURES OF THE PLASTID AND NUCLEAR GENOMES, INCLUDING AN INTRON LOSS IN GBSSI JERROLD I DAVIS'"" AND ROBERT J. SORENG^ 'L. H. Bailey Hortorium and Department of Plant Biology, Cornell University, Ithaca, New York 14853, USA; ^Department of Botany and U. S. National Herbarium, National Museum of Natural History, Smithsonian Institution, Washington, D.C. 20013-7012, USA, ([email protected]) ^Corresponding author ([email protected]) Phylogenetic relationships in the grass family (Poaceae), with specific attention to the internal structure of subfamily Pooideae, are analyzed on the basis of nucleotide sequence variation in plastid- encoded genes (ma/K, ndKP, ndhïl, and rhcL,). The resulting phylogenetic hypothesis was examined with attention to the taxonomic distributions of two inversions and an insertion/deletion within ndh¥, the absence of intron 10 of the nuclear gene GBSSI (waxy), and positions of the boundaries between the Short Single Copy (SSC) region and the neighboring Inverted Repeat (IR) regions of the plastid genome, relative to the endpoints of ndh¥ and ndhH, which span these boundaries in some taxa. The PACCAD clade is resolved, and extension of the 3'-end of ndhF from the SSC region into the IR region is interpreted as a synapomorphy of this clade. The BEP clade also is resolved, with Ehrhar- toideae placed as the sister of a clade in which Bambusoideae and Pooideae are sister groups. The loss of GBSSI intron 10 is interpreted as a synapomorphy of Poeae s.l., which includes the traditionally defined tribes Poeae, Aveneae, and Hainardieae, and the results support a novel set of relationships among the tribes of Pooideae, including the placement of Brachypodieae, Bromeae, Triticeae, and Poeae s.l. -
Contribution to the Flora of Cyprus. 3
Flora Mediterranea 4 - 1994 9 Jindnch Chrtek & Bohumil Slavik Contribution to the flora of Cyprus. 3. Abstract Chrtek, 1. & Slavik, B.: Contribution to the flora of Cyprus. 3. - Fl. Medit. 4: 9-20. 1994. ISSN 1120-4052. The third part of the results of a floristic investigation of Cyprus is presented, including 85 species. One species is new for Cyprus: Saccharum sponraneum. Two new combinations are made: Bellevalia pieridis and Bromus scoparius subsp. chrysopogon. 34 taxa are reported as new to some of the eight botanical divisions of Cyprus. Introduction This is a continuation of our contributions on gymnosperrns and dicotyledons (Chrtek & Slavik 1981,1993), and covers the monocotyledons and fems as ordered and named in voI. 2 of Flora of Cyprus (Meikle 1985). The localities are arranged according to the botanical divisions 1-4 as delimited by Meikle (1977: 4-8). Following the localities are abbreviations of collectors' names (which also stand for the collecting period): C&S = J. Chrtek & B. Slavik in ApriI 1978; N &N = R. Neuhausl & Z. Neuhauslova in August 1981; D = J. Dostal in 'April 1982; C = C. Cthalik in May 1984. This contribution reports data on 85 species from 214 localities. One species (Saccharum spontaneum L.) is new to Cyprus. Two new combinations at the specific and subspecific ranks are given: Bellevalia pieridis (Holmboe) Chrtek & B. Slavik and Bromus scoparius subsp. chrysopogon (Viv.) Chrtek & B. Slavik. When one compares our localities with the distributions given in Meikle's flora, it appears that certain species are new to some of the four botanical divisions mentioned above. -
