  • New Species of Baccharis (Asteraceae) from Western Mexico
    Nesom, G.L. 2018. New species of Baccharis (Asteraceae) from western Mexico. Phytoneuron 2018-28: 1–20. Published 30 May 2018. ISSN 2153 733X NEW SPECIES OF BACCHARIS (ASTERACEAE) FROM WESTERN MEXICO GUY L. NESOM 2925 Hartwood Drive Fort Worth, Texas 76109 [email protected] ABSTRACT Four new species of Baccharis are described from western Mexico and one is raised in rank from variety. Baccharis charucoensis Nesom, sp. nov. , from the Rio Mayo region along Chihuahua-Sonora border, is similar in habit and related to B. macrocephala of eastern Mexico but differs in its linear leaves with stiffly ciliate margins. Baccharis horizontalis Nesom, sp. nov. , from western Durango and adjacent Sinaloa, is similar and closely related to the widespread B. serrifolia but differs in its sessile leaves and distant geographical location. Baccharis supplex Nesom, sp. nov. , from southeastern Durango (mpios. Mezquital and Súchil) differs from the sympatric B. thesioides in its rhizomatous habit with one or few stems from the base, broader leaves, and few-flowered capitulescence. Baccharis praetermissia Nesom, sp. nov. , from the Cape Region of Baja California Sur, is distinct in its erect habit, nearly glabrous stems, glabrous, elliptic leaves, dense capitulescence, and non-accrescent pappus, and disjunct geography within sect. Aristidentes . Baccharis multiflora var. herbacea McVaugh from western Michoacan is recognized here at specific rank: Baccharis herbacea (McVaugh) Nesom, comb. et stat. nov. Each of these five species apparently is rare. In a review of Baccharis in CAS-DS, TEX-LL, and UC-JEPS, collections indicate that four distinct species are without names. They are formally described here, and another is recognized by raising its rank from variety to species.

    Floristic Surveys of Saguaro National Park Protected Natural Areas William L. Halvorson and Brooke S. Gebow, editors Technical Report No. 68 United States Geological Survey Sonoran Desert Field Station The University of Arizona Tucson, Arizona USGS Sonoran Desert Field Station The University of Arizona, Tucson The Sonoran Desert Field Station (SDFS) at The University of Arizona is a unit of the USGS Western Ecological Research Center (WERC). It was originally established as a National Park Service Cooperative Park Studies Unit (CPSU) in 1973 with a research staff and ties to The University of Arizona. Transferred to the USGS Biological Resources Division in 1996, the SDFS continues the CPSU mission of providing scientific data (1) to assist U.S. Department of Interior land management agencies within Arizona and (2) to foster cooperation among all parties overseeing sensitive natural and cultural resources in the region. It also is charged with making its data resources and researchers available to the interested public. Seventeen such field stations in California, Arizona, and Nevada carry out WERC’s work. The SDFS provides a multi-disciplinary approach to studies in natural and cultural sciences. Principal cooperators include the School of Renewable Natural Resources and the Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology at The University of Arizona. Unit scientists also hold faculty or research associate appointments at the university. The Technical Report series distributes information relevant to high priority regional resource management needs. The series presents detailed accounts of study design, methods, results, and applications possibly not accommodated in the formal scientific literature. Technical Reports follow SDFS guidelines and are subject to peer review and editing.

  • Notes on Certain Type Specimens of American Asteraceae in European Herbaria
    NOTES ON CERTAIN TYPE SPECIMENS OF AMERICAN ASTERACEAE IN EUROPEAN HERBARIA By S. F. BLAKE In the course of the writer's work at several of the larger European herbaria in the summer of 1925, special effort was made to determine the identity of various American species of Asteraceae which were imperfectly described by early authors and have since been unrecog- nized or misinterpreted. In this paper four generic names (Parastre- phia, PhUactisj Anaitis, and Aschenbornia) and about 115 specific names which have been misunderstood or regarded as doubtful since the time of their original publication are first given their rightful status as valid names or synonyms. A few identifications here in- cluded have already been published.1 The genera are arranged in the systematic order of the accepted names, the species alphabetically under the genera. Special attention was given to the investigation of the Heliantheae, particularly in the Prodromus Herbarium of the DeCandolles, now forming a unit in the Delessert Herbarium, Geneva, and in the Schultz Bipontinus Herbarium, which includes Sprengel's types and forms a part of the Cosson Herbarium at the Museum d'Histoire Naturelle at Paris. Schultz's herbarium includes, besides his own types and those of Sprengel, a wealth of fragments of types and authentic specimens from other authors, and the Prodromus Herba- rium is rich in authentic specimens of earlier writers in addition to De Candolle's own types. A rather hurried examination was made of all the Asteraceae of the Humboldt and Bonpland Herbarium at Paris, Notes, photographs, and in many cases small fragments of types or significant specimens were obtained of hundreds of species of American Asteraceae, of which those discussed in this paper represent only the comparatively small part in which some change of interpretation has been found necessary.
