Included inthe script are narrations for use with a total of 338 slides illustrating 150 different plants. Generally, two slidesare used to illustrate each plant: one slide shows the growth habit of the plant, and the other is a close-up of the plant's flower or foliage. Plantsare grouped by flowering period and treated alphabetically in eachgroup by scientific name. At the end of the scriptare two indexes: one for each plant's scientific name and the other fcr itscommon name(s). The introduction to the script also includes suggestions for itsuse and recommended additional learning activities.

FOREWORD A major objective of Herbaceous Ornamental Plants, slide set and script, is to aid in the studyand identification of commercially important herbaceousornamentals. For the most part, the herbaceous plants covered in this slide set are perennials. Those involved in selling herbaceous ornamentals should be able to identify the plants, helpcustomers select plants for specific situations, and providecultural tips as well. Those whogrow or maintain herbaceous plants must also be able to identifythe plant and the cultural requirementsof each. Herbaceous Ornamental Plants containsslides of 150 different plants. Generally two slides to illustrate each perennial. One slide are used shows the habit of the plant; the other isa close-up of the flower, or foliage. The plants are grouped by floweringperlod and treated alphabetically, in each name. grc up, by scientific Narration for the first slide of each plant isas follows: 000.Scientific name (genus and species) Family name (Phonetic spelling of scientific name) Habitat COMMON NAME Description At the end of the script are two indexes:one for each plant's scientific name(s). name, the other for the common SUGGESTIONS FOR USE 1. Review the slide series and script prior to presenting it. For additionalinformation consult sources such as the book, Herbaceous OrnamentalPlants, by Steven Still. 2.Determine which plants are incommon usage in your area, then adapt the situation. series to reflect your local 3.Before presenting this series, makesure viewers have some knowledge of the herbaceous ornamentals and of terminology culture and uses of related to plant growth. Then decide howmuch and what type of additional informationyour viewers need to know. 4.This series has been divided into sections based on season of bloom. It is suggestedthat no more than one segment be presented during anyone session. 5.Add your own information and comments or those of your viewers to make the series relevantto your local situation. For example, viewersmay be called upon to describe how each the outdoor environment. plant might be used in SUGGESTIONS FOR ADDITIONALACTIVITIES 1.

We identified Apocynaceae species by using nuclear internal transcribed spacer 2 (ITS2) and psbA- trnH based on experimental data. The identification ability of ITS2 and psbA-trnH was assessed using specific genetic divergence, BLAST1, and neighbor-joining trees. For DNA barcoding, ITS2 and psbA-trnH regions of 122 plant samples of 31 species from 19 genera in the Apocynaceae family were amplified.

Our hosts: Melanie and Peter Rich at Casa Sarasa www.casasarasa.com Photos by Chris Gibson (CG), Helen Crowder (HC) and Peter Crook (PC), all taken during this holiday. At the end of this report there are photos of some of the non-British moths seen during the week. Front cover: enjoying Aisa valley (CG). Below: eating outside on the last evening (CG) and the green pastures of the upper Hecho valley (HC). This holiday, as for every Honeyguide holiday, also puts something into conservation in our host country by way of a contribution to the wildlife that we enjoyed, in this case for La Sociedad Española de Ornitología (SEO), the Spanish Ornithological Society, and its work in Aragón. The conservation contribution this year of £40 per person was supplemented by gift aid through the Honeyguide Wildlife Charitable Trust, leading to a total of £440 This donation brings the total given to SEO since the first Honeyguide holiday in Spain in 1991 to £16,745 (through all Honeyguide holidays, mostly the Spanish Pyrenees and Extremadura). As at July 2016, the total for all conservation contributions through Honeyguide since 1991 was £108,716. 2 DAILY DIARY Wednesday 15 June: The way there… What should have been a simple journey, Stansted to Biarritz then minibus to Berdún, had by 8pm turned out rather differently. After a series of delays due to thundery weather our flight eventually got onto French tarmac an hour late, where we were held on the plane because of the heavy rain, although any benefit from that was soon negated when we had to wait outside, in the continuing deluge, while another plane took off.

Address for correspondence: Nicolás García, [email protected] DOI https://doi.org/10.1002/tax.12062 Abstract A robust generic classification for Amaryllidaceae has remained elusive mainly due to the lack of unequivocal diagnostic characters, a consequence of highly canalized variation and a deeply reticulated evolutionary history. A consensus classification is pro- posed here, based on recent molecular phylogenetic studies, morphological and cytogenetic variation, and accounting for secondary criteria of classification, such as nomenclatural stability. Using the latest sutribal classification of Hippeastreae (Hippeastrinae and Traubiinae) as a foundation, we propose the recognition of six genera, namely Eremolirion gen. nov., Hippeastrum, Phycella s.l., Rhodolirium s.str., Traubia, and Zephyranthes s.l. A subgeneric classification is suggested for Hippeastrum and Zephyranthes to denote putative subclades.

E-mail: [email protected] Received: 14.01.2019. Accepted: 25.02.2019 The genus Aubrieta Adans. includes 12-24 species naturally distributed in South-West Asia (mainly in Anatolia) and in South and Southeast Europe. Most of these species grow in mountain, subalpine and alpine altitudinal belts. The most common is A. deltoidea (L.) DC. It has long been known as a garden ornamental plant in Western Europe and in other countries. During the last 10-15 years, plants of this species began to be cultivated in Ukraine and in Eastern Europe. For the genus and for A. deltoidea, the nomenclature, basic synonymy, complete morphological description, ecological affinity, range, and also features of distribution in Ukraine and in Eastern Europe are given at the first time. Based on the analysis and generalization of ecological and biological specificity, features of plant distribution and cultivation, it was suggested that in the climatic conditions of Ukraine A. deltoidea plants may run wild and form spontaneous populations. Keywords: Aubrieta deltoidea; ornamental plants; potential ergasiophyte; flora of Ukraine Introduction According to modern data, the Brassicaceae Burnett family includes about 4,000 species, which belong to more than 300 genera and 52 tribes (Al-Shehbaz, 2012; Hohmann et al., 2015; BrassiBase, 2017).
