ABSTRACT: Four new Fosterella species from Bolivia are described and illustrated: F. fuentesii, F. now­ ickii, F. rexiae (Andes), and F. yuvinkae (eastern lowlands, Chiquitano mountains). Fosterella petiolata, F. weberbauer! (re-established), and F. windisch!! are recorded as new species for Bolivia. Fosterella graminea and F. heterophylla are recorded for the first time since the type collection. Additional information on morphological variation and distribution of other species is provided. The number of described Bolivian Fosterella species rises to 27. Thus, Fosterella now ranks third in Bolivia (after Tillands!a and Puya) in total number of species and percentage of endemic species of Bromeliaceae within Bolivia.

  • Nuclear Genes, Matk and the Phylogeny of the Poales
    Zurich Open Repository and Archive University of Zurich Main Library Strickhofstrasse 39 CH-8057 Zurich www.zora.uzh.ch Year: 2018 Nuclear genes, matK and the phylogeny of the Poales Hochbach, Anne ; Linder, H Peter ; Röser, Martin Abstract: Phylogenetic relationships within the monocot order Poales have been well studied, but sev- eral unrelated questions remain. These include the relationships among the basal families in the order, family delimitations within the restiid clade, and the search for nuclear single-copy gene loci to test the relationships based on chloroplast loci. To this end two nuclear loci (PhyB, Topo6) were explored both at the ordinal level, and within the Bromeliaceae and the restiid clade. First, a plastid reference tree was inferred based on matK, using 140 taxa covering all APG IV families of Poales, and analyzed using parsimony, maximum likelihood and Bayesian methods. The trees inferred from matK closely approach the published phylogeny based on whole-plastome sequencing. Of the two nuclear loci, Topo6 supported a congruent, but much less resolved phylogeny. By contrast, PhyB indicated different phylo- genetic relationships, with, inter alia, Mayacaceae and Typhaceae sister to Poaceae, and Flagellariaceae in a basally branching position within the Poales. Within the restiid clade the differences between the three markers appear less serious. The Anarthria clade is first diverging in all analyses, followed by Restionoideae, Sporadanthoideae, Centrolepidoideae and Leptocarpoideae in the matK and Topo6 data, but in the PhyB data Centrolepidoideae diverges next, followed by a paraphyletic Restionoideae with a clade consisting of the monophyletic Sporadanthoideae and Leptocarpoideae nested within them. The Bromeliaceae phylogeny obtained from Topo6 is insufficiently sampled to make reliable statements, but indicates a good starting point for further investigations.

INFERENCES ABOUT PHYLOGENY AND SOUTH AMERICAN–AFRICAN DISJUNCTIONS IN RAPATEACEAE AND BROMELIACEAE BASED ON ndhF SEQUENCE DATA Thomas J. Givnish,1,* Kendra C. Millam,* Timothy M. Evans,y Jocelyn C. Hall,* J. Chris Pires,* Paul E. Berry,* and Kenneth J. Sytsma* *Department of Botany, University of Wisconsin, Madison, Wisconsin 53706, U.S.A.; and yDepartment of Botany, Hope College, Holland, Michigan 49428, U.S.A. Rapateaceae and Bromeliaceae each have a center of diversity in South America and a single species native to a sandstone area in west Africa that abutted the Guayana Shield in northern South America before the Atlantic rifted. They thus provide ideal material for examining the potential role of vicariance versus long-distance dispersal in creating amphiatlantic disjunctions. Analyses based on ndhF sequence variation indicate that Rapateaceae and Bromeliaceae are each monophyletic and underwent crown radiation around 41 and 23 Ma, respectively. Both exhibit clocklike sequence evolution, with bromeliads evolving roughly one-third more slowly than rapateads. Among rapateads, the divergence of west African Maschalocephalus dinklagei from its closest South American relatives implies that Maschalocephalus resulted via long-distance dispersal 7 Ma, not ancient continental drift; only its sandstone habitat is vicariant. Rapateads arose first at low elevations in the Guayana Shield; the earliest divergent genera are widespread along riverine corridors there and, to a lesser extent, in Amazonia and the Brazilian Shield.

The achievement of this work would not have been possible for me without the provided PhD research fellowship. The field trip to South America was kindly supported by the DAAD. For the provision of the topic I would like to thank my supervisor Pierre L. Ibisch wholeheartedly. I benefited tremendously from his kind support and friendly advice just like his enthusiasm for Fosterella and Bolivia has infected me. My sincere thanks to my supervisor Kurt Weising for support and confidence throughout the whole project. I want to thank all further colleagues involved in the Fosterella project for the reliable cooperation: Georg Zizka and Katharina Schulte (Research Institute Senckenberg, Frankfurt/M.), Christoph Nowicki (University of Applied Sciences, Eberswalde), Martina Rex and Natascha Wagner (University of Kassel). Special thanks go to Christoph Nowicki for help with the distribution maps. We are very grateful to our longtime cooperation partners abroad, without whom the whole Fosterella project could not have been hardly that successful: Roberto Vásquez (Sociedad Boliviana de Botánica, Santa Cruz, Bolivia), Stephan G.

Gea Zijlstra Department of Plant Ecology and Evolutionary Biology Herbarium, University of Utrecht, Heidelberglaan 2 NL-3584 CS Utrecht, The Netherlands 1 Author for correspondence footnote: ABSTRACT An annotated catalogue of the known generic names of the Bromeliaceae is presented. It accounts for 187 names in six lists: I. Generic names (133), II. Invalid names (7), III. A synonymized checklist of the genera of the Bromeliaceae (56 accepted genera, and 77 synonyms), IV. Nothogenera (bigeneric hybrids) (41), V. Invalid nothogenus (1), and VI. Putative fossil genera (5). Comments on nomenclature or taxonomy are given when necessary to explain problematic issues, and notes on important researchers of the family are intercalated throughout. The etymological derivation of each name is given, including if named after a person, a brief remark on their identity. Appended is a chronological list of monographs of the Bromeliaceae and other works significant to the taxonomy of the family.
