Many more and much love, always. wwwwwwwwwwww Preface I have lived within the Cross Timbers for 10 years, observing its many changes. It did not take me long to realize that many of the processes maintaining this eco- tone—between eastern deciduous forest and tallgrass prairie—may also control how trees invaded the ecotone de fi ned after abandonment from agriculture in New Jersey, USA which was the subject of my Ph.D dissertation and included in my fi rst book. Not only were many of the dominant species and genera the same (e.g., Quercus spp., Ulmus spp., Rubus spp., Juniperius virginiana ) but the ecotonal dynamics itself could be looked at as an interplay between the process of tree inva- sion on the forest side of the ecotone and those processes that present barriers to that invasion on the prairie side. Consequently I could combine my previous knowledge of the biology and ecology of many of the trees, shrubs, forbs, and grasses with re fi ned fi eld experimentation, to investigate this Cross Timbers ecotone and set the stage for this new book. I have been fortunate to work with these generous col- leagues at Oklahoma State University (OSU): Drs. John Weir, Stephen Hallgren, Edwardo Lorenzi, and Chris Stansberry at OSU—Stillwater, and Drs.

Bot. 42 (3-4): 347 - 357. 2007 ARTÍCULO INVITADO Plant diversity and galling arthropod diversity searching for taxonomic patterns in an animal-plant interaction in the Neotropics MILTON DE SOUZA MENDONÇA, JR.1 Summary: Gall-inducers are a special guild of endophytic herbivores generating distinct structures known as galls. Gallers are species-specific, as the galls they induce: each gall morphotype is unique. The relationship between plants and gallers is close, and some of the hypotheses to explain galling diversity consider plants directly; others do not. Here I review current diversity hypotheses on galls and their hosts, adding ideas on the interpretation of galler host plant data. The example comes from an ongoing standardised inventory of galls and hosts in Rio Grande do Sul (RS) state, southern Brazil. The questions addressed here are whether: a) galls occur consistently on some plant taxa in different areas, b) these taxa are important for vegetation composition, and c) taxon size influences galling richness. Families harbouring more gallers are usually the same throughout the Neotropics (Fabaceae, Myrtaceae, and in RS, Asteraceae), which is not unexpected as these are important components of vegetation. Larger plant families have more galls, a pattern driven by Asteraceae. At lower taxonomic levels, the dominance of a few taxa in galler richness («super-hosts») is higher. Mikania and Eugenia, for example, hold much more galls than others in the RS survey. Key words: gall, species richness, plant taxon size hypothesis, Fabaceae, Myrtaceae, Asteraceae. Resumo: Diversidade de plantas e diversidade de artrópodes galhadores.

GONZÁLEZ1 Summary: Foliar architecture of native species of Myrtaceae of the Argentinean flora II: Groups “Myrteola” and “Pimenta”. This work is part of an integrated study of leaf architecture of Myrtaceae native species of Argentina. Seventeen native species of native flora were studied to find patterns of leaf architecture to differentiate the Argentinean species of the informal subtribal: “group Pimenta” and “group Myrteola”, Tribu Myrteae (Family Myrtaceae). The leaves studied in this work are characterized by being simple, with apex and base variable, membranaceous to coriaceous in texture, and with entire margin or slightly crenate. Its venation pattern is characterized by having the first vein category pinnate, simple, and straight, without agrophic veins; venation of secondary category is brochidodromous-camptodromous veins (except in Myrteola nummularia that there was a pattern acrodromous-brochidodromous), with one or none paramarginal vein and intramarginal vein; the third and fourth vein category are percurrent alternate, percurrent alternate and opposite, random reticulate or branched, the areolae vary from undeveloped to fully developed and venules branching one, two, or more times. Key words: Leaf Architecture, Myrtaceae, “group Myrteola”, “group Pimenta”, Argentina. Resumen: El presente trabajo forma parte de un estudio integrado de arquitectura foliar en especies nativas de Myrtaceas de Argentina.

Berg, two native Myrtoideae from Rio Grande do Sul state, Brazil]. The wood anatomy of Eugenia burkartiana (D. Legrand) D. Legrand and Myrciaria cuspidata O. Berg are described and illustrated, based on samples from Rio Grande do Sul state, Brazil. The anatomical features shared by the two species reinforce the well known structural homogeneity ofMyrtaceae farnily. To segregate both species are specially important: the arrangement ofaxial parenchyma; the presence and/or abundance of organic inclusions in rays; the presence of crystalliferous strands on axial parenchyma; the cellular composition of ray margins (uniseriate ends); and the frequency of pores. Key words: Eugenia burkartiana, Myrciaria cuspidata, wood anatomy, Myrtaceae.

A large part of the present paper is devoted to the characterization and description of approximately 80 species and sub-specific taxa, mostly from Peru, which appear to be new to science. The keys which are set forth below are intended primarily for the student who wishes to place the newly described species properly among their congeners or to follow the lines of reasoning by which I became convinced that the specimens represented undescribed taxa. Both keys and descriptions have been abridged from those which were originally prepared for the Flora of Peru, so that extra-Peruvian species have not been included in the keys unless there seems reason to believe that ultimately they may be found in that country. The American representatives of the Myrtaceae have long been considered a "difficult" group, and one in need of much systematic study.

Nenhuma característica ocorre exclusivamente no grupo taxonômico em questão. É confirmado o valor do arranjo do parênquima axial para a separação de espécies, bem como da frequência de poros e características de raios. Não é possível contestar, com base na anatomia da madeira, a inclusão de Hexachlamys em Eugenia, como sugerido por Landrum e Kawasaki (1997). Palavras-chave: Anatomia; taxonomia; madeira; Myrteae.

Willdenow, for example (Sp. PI. 2: 93.5. 1800), knew among the capsular-fruited Myrtaceae 12 species of Leptospermum, 14 of Metrosideros, and 12 of Eucalyptus. The Myrtaceae with baccate fruits he referred to Eugenia 130 species), Psidium 18 species), jtlyrtus 128 species), Calyptranthes (6 species) and Plinia II species).

  • Native and Exotic Plants with Edible Fleshy Fruits Utilized in Patagonia and Their Role As Sources of Local Functional Foods Melina Fernanda Chamorro and Ana Ladio*
    Chamorro and Ladio BMC Complementary Medicine and Therapies (2020) 20:155 BMC Complementary https://doi.org/10.1186/s12906-020-02952-1 Medicine and Therapies RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Native and exotic plants with edible fleshy fruits utilized in Patagonia and their role as sources of local functional foods Melina Fernanda Chamorro and Ana Ladio* Abstract Background: Traditionally part of the human diet, plants with edible fleshy fruits (PEFF) contain bioactive components that may exert physiological effects beyond nutrition, promoting human health and well-being. Focusing on their food-medicine functionality, different ways of using PEFF were studied in a cross-sectional way using two approaches: a bibliographical survey and an ethnobotanical case study in a rural community of Patagonia, Argentina. Methods: A total of 42 studies were selected for the bibliographical review. The case study was carried out with 80% of the families inhabiting the rural community of Cuyín Manzano, using free listing, interviews, and participant observation. In both cases we analyzed species richness and use patterns through the edible consensus and functional consensus indices. Local foods, ailments, medicines and drug plants were also registered. Results: The review identified 73 PEFF, the majority of which (78%) were native species, some with the highest use consensus. PEFF were used in 162 different local foods, but mainly as fresh fruit. Of the total, 42% were used in a functional way, in 54 different medicines. The principal functional native species identified in the review were Aristotelia chilensis and Berberis microphylla. In the case study 20 PEFF were in current use (50% were native), and consensus values were similar for native and exotic species.
