Correct Name of the Japanese Endemic Species Pertya Trilobata (Asteraceae) J. Jpn. Bot. 91: 79–83 (2016) Correct Name of the Japanese Endemic Species Pertya trilobata (Asteraceae) Tetsuo OHI-TOMA* and Jin MURATA Botanical Gardens, Graduate School of Science, the University of Tokyo, Bunkyo-ku, Tokyo, 112-0001 JAPAN *Corresponding author: [email protected] (Accepted on October 14, 2015) For the name of one of the Japanese endemic species of Pertya sect. Macroclinidium (Asteraceae) or the genus Macroclinidium, the adjective trilobus has been used as the specific epithet, as P. triloba or M. trilobum. However, this adjectival epithet should be treated as an orthographical variant of trilobatus used in M. trilobatum Makino, because they are confusingly similar epithets based on the same type. Thus, its correct name under Pertya is P. trilobata (Makino) Makino based on M. trilobatum, which has priority as the validly published name. Concurrently, on the basis of cytological, morphological and preliminary molecular evidences, P. ×koribana (Nakai) Makino & Nemoto, which has been known as a putative hybrid between P. trilobata and P. robusta, is to be treated as P. trilobata having unlobed leaves. Key words: Asteraceae, Macroclinidium trilobum, Macroclinidium trilobatum, Macroclinidium koribanum, nomenclature, Pertya ×koribana, Pertya triloba, Pertya trilobata. Pertya Sch. Bip.

Most of them, which are been used as a specific epithet: Pertya triloba shrubs or subshrubs, are classified into section (Makino) Makino (Kitamura 1981, Yonekura Pertya.

Here, we review the 2008). Recently, Freire (2012) indicated the nomenclature of the taxon (Tables 1–3), and separation of Macroclinidium from Pertya based showed that its correct name is Pertya trilobata on morphological cladistic analysis.

Previous morphological, cytogenetic and molecular studies suggested that L. decora is sister to N. insignis. However, it is less clear how the two species diverged, whether in full isolation or occurring gene flow across the Tanaka Line. Here, we performed a molecular study at the population level to characterize genetic differentiation and decipher phylogeographic history in two closely related species based on variation examined in plastid and nuclear DNAs using a coalescent-based approach. Results: These morphologically distinct species share plastid DNA (cpDNA) haplotypes. In contrast, Bayesian analysis of nuclear DNA (nDNA) uncovered two distinct clusters corresponding to L. decora and N. insignis. Based on the IMa analysis, no strong indication of migration was detected based on both cpDNA and nDNA sequences. The molecular data pointed to a major west-east split in nuclear DNA between the two species corresponding with the Tanaka Line. The coalescent time estimate for all cpDNA haplotypes dated to the Mid-Late Pleistocene. The estimated demographic parameters showed that the population size of L. decora was similar to that of N. insignis and both experienced limited demographic fluctuations recently. Conclusions: The study revealed comprehensive species divergence and phylogeographic histories of N.

The main source of botanical information of a particular area is its floristic checklists. Floristic study of any given area helps to evaluate the plant wealth and its potential values. To assess floristic diversity of an unexplored remote valley (Manoor Valley), frequent field visits were arranged in different growing seasons during 2015 to 2018. The life form classes and leaf spectra of all plant species were determined and further classified according to the Raunkiaer classification.

Nawanshahar, Near Ropar, Punjab, India *Corresponding Author Email: [email protected] Article Received on: 02/03/17 Approved for publication: 20/04/17 DOI: 10.7897/2230-8407.080450 ABSTRACT The present study deals with the investigation of the Phytochemical screening and Acute drug toxicity and Anti Diarrhoeal activity of Ethanolic extract of whole plant of Ainsliaea aptera (EEAA). The genus Ainsliaea is a medicinal herb that belongs to the family of be Asteraceae (Compositae). This Genus has been used as a folk medicine for the treatment of rheumatism, traumatic injuries, edema, and stomachache so far, several sesquiterpenes, triterpenes and flavonoids, have been isolated from this genus. The genus Ainsliaea Dc. is distributed in South East Asia ranging from Afghanistan to Japan. The present study deals with the investigation of the Phytochemical screening, Acute drug toxicity and Anti Diarrhoeal activity of Ethanolic Extract of Whole Plant of Ainsliaea aptera (EEAA). Preliminary Phytochemical screening done for the presence of carbohydrate, protein, alkaloids, flavonoids, tannins, glycosides, phytosterol, and saponins were carried out using standard test procedures. The procedure was followed as per OECD423 guidelines for acute drug toxicity. The methods used for evaluating the Anti-Diarrhoeal activity were castor-oil induced diarrhoea model in rats and charcoal meal test/intestinal motility test in mice at dose 800 mg/kg, p.o.

  • Vertebrate Pollination in Compositae STAPFIA 103 (2015): 5–26
    VOGEL • Vertebrate Pollination in Compositae STAPFIA 103 (2015): 5–26 Vertebrate Pollination in Compositae: Floral Syndromes and Field Observations STEFAN VOGEL* Abstract: The plant family Asteraceae (Compositae) owes its enormous evolutionary success to the development of the capitulum, in which many florets are combined into a flower-like pseudanthium. Although the details vary enormously, the capitulum adheres to a pattern that does not promote assortative specialisation to pollinators. Most species have a wide pollinator spectrum that includes bees, flies, butterflies, beetles and bugs. Here, I present a survey of tropical and subtropical Compositae that exhibit the floral syndromes of ornithophily (> 60 species in 27 genera), chiropterophily (17 species in 9 genera) and therophily (2–4 species of the genus Oldenburgia). In c. 20 cases, bird-pollination is supported by relevant (although mostly casual) observations (literature data and personal observations). The ornithophilous syndrome was convergently achieved by similar means to those seen in other families, albeit limited by the Compositae bauplan. Eight subfamilies (of the 12 presently recognised in the Compositae) and 12 tribes are involved, of which the Neotropical Barnadesioideae, Stifftioideae and Mutisioideae are the most prominent. Around 70% of the ornithophilous species are trees or shrubs. With respect to habitat, higher altitudes with a temperate climate are clearly preferred. Pollination by bats and non-flying mammals is much rarer. Although at least 17 species can be predicted to be bat-pollinated based on their chiropterophilous floral syndrome, visits by bats have only been observed in a single species,Gongylolepis jauaensis. In the South African genus Oldenburgia, at least two (and possibly all four) species are probably pollinated by non-flying mammals.

  • Record of Ainsliaea Brandisiana (Asteraceae) from Thailand and Its Biogeographic Significance
    Phytotaxa 230 (1): 081–086 ISSN 1179-3155 (print edition) www.mapress.com/phytotaxa/ PHYTOTAXA Copyright © 2015 Magnolia Press Article ISSN 1179-3163 (online edition) http://dx.doi.org/10.11646/phytotaxa.230.1.8 A “rediscovered” record of Ainsliaea brandisiana (Asteraceae) from Thailand and its biogeographic significance BAO NIE1, 2, GUOJIN ZHANG1, 2, ANGKHANA INTA3 & TIANGANG GAO1 1State Key Laboratory of Systematic and Evolutionary Botany, Institute of Botany, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing 100093, People’s Republic of China; e-mail: [email protected] (author for correspondence) 2University of Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing 100049, People’s Republic of China 3Department of Biology, Faculty of Science, Chiang Mai University, Mueng District, Chiang Mai 50200, Thailand Abstract Ainsliaea brandisiana was regarded as distributed only in southeastern Myanmar. Koyama once reported the occurrence of A. brandisiana in Thailand in 1983, whereas Tseng thought it was a new species and described it as A. spnocephala in 1988. This treatment was accepted by Freire in 2007. Thus, the record of A. brandisiana from Thailand reported by Koyama was not valid. However, during a field trip in Phu Soi Dao National Park of northeastern Thailand, we found a remarkable spe- cies of Ainsliaea growing in mountain forests at the elevation of 1600 m. After detailed and comprehensive examination, we determined that it was A. brandisiana. This “rediscovered” record of A. brandisiana suggested a close phytogeographical connection between the mountain forests flora of southeastern Myanmar and that of northeastern Thailand, although they were separated by the lowlands rain forests of Thailand peninsula. We proposed a new hypothesis that there might be a plant migration route connecting southeastern Myanmar, northeastern Thailand and the Hengduan Mountains.
