  • Morphological Characters Add Support for Some Members of the Basal Grade of Asteraceae

Each of the major clades is well supported but the relationships among them are not always clear. Some of the new taxa are easily characterized by morphological data but others are not, chief among the latter being three subfamilies (Stifftioideae, Wunderlichioideae and Gochnatioideae) and the tribe Hyalideae. To under- stand evolution in the family it is critical to investigate potential morphological characters that can help to evaluate the basal lineages of the Asteraceae. The data for this study were taken from 52 species in 24 genera representing the basal groups in the family. Many characters were examined but most of the useful ones were from reproductive structures. Several apomorphies supported a few of the clades. For instance, members of subfamily Wunderlichioideae (Hyalideae and Wunderlichieae) share predominantly ten-ribbed achenes and members of Wunderlichioideae + Stifftioideae share two synapomorphies: 100–150 (200) pappus elements, arranged in (three) four or five series. These apomorphies can be viewed as an indication of a sister-group relationship between the two subfamilies as the placement of Stifftieae was not well resolved by the molecular data.

FREIRE Instituto de Botánica Darwinion Casilla de Correo 22 Labardén 200, San Isidro (B1642HYD) Buenos Aires, ARGENTINA [email protected] ABSTRACT A previous molecular study showed that Chucoa ilicifolia , the type species of the genus Chucoa , is within the genus Onoseris clade. A new genus, Paquirea Panero & S.E. Freire, is proposed and described to accommodate the other species of Chucoa , C. lanceolata , as Paquirea lanceolata (H. Beltrán & Ferreyra) Panero & S.E. Freire, comb. nov. The new genus differs from Onoseris in having actinomorphic corollas with lobes of equivalent size and discoid capitula. Paquirea shares with other Onoserideae a shrubby habit, solitary capitula, epaleate receptacles, five- lobed corollas, anthers with long tails, style branches dorsally papillose with rounded apices, and heteromorphic pappi in three series. Among the Onoserideae, Paquirea, because of its solitary capitula and shrubby habit, is most similar to Plazia and Aphyllocladus . Paquirea can be distinguished from these genera by its conspicuously leafy stems (vs. leaves soon deciduous in Aphyllocladus ), alternate leaves (vs. spirally-arranged leaves in Plazia ), discoid capitula (vs. radiate capitula in Plazia ), cream-colored corollas (vs. lilac to purple corollas in Aphyllocladus and white to pink in Plazia ), and glabrous achenes (vs.

Associate editor: Hideki Innan Abstract Biodiversity results from multiple evolutionary mechanisms, including genetic variation and natural selection. Whole- genome duplications (WGDs), or polyploidizations, provide opportunities for large-scale genetic modifications. Many evolutionarily successful lineages, including angiosperms and vertebrates, are ancient polyploids, suggesting that WGDs are a driving force in evolution. However, this hypothesis is challenged by the observed lower speciation and higher extinction rates of recently formed polyploids than diploids. Asteraceae includes about 10% of angiosperm species, is thus undoubtedly one of the most successful lineages and paleopolyploidization was suggested early in this family using a small number of datasets. Here, we used genes from 64 new transcriptome datasets and others to reconstruct a robust Asteraceae phylogeny, covering 73 species from 18 tribes in six subfamilies. We estimated their divergence times and further identified multiple potential ancient WGDs within several tribes and shared by the Heliantheae alliance, core Asteraceae (Asteroideae–Mutisioideae), and also with the sister family Calyceraceae.

  • 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.

PhytoKeys 95: 93–106. https://doi.org/10.3897/phytokeys.95.22916 Abstract Gerbera hieracioides (Kunth) Zardini of the Gerbera-complex (Mutisieae, Asteraceae/Compositae) is dis- tributed in Ecuador and Peru. This perennial herb was first named as Onoseris hieracioides Kunth and was later recognised as Trichocline hieracioides (Kunth) Ferreyra. Now it is generally treated as Gerbera hieracioides (Kunth) Zardini but it has never been included in any section of Gerbera. In this study, the position of Gerbera hieracioides is assessed based on morphology and a molecular phylogeny that includes G. hieracioides and 28 other species from the Gerbera-complex. Morphologically, G. hieracioides bears leaves with the adaxial epidermal surface without stomates but with soft thin trichomes, bracteate scapes, trimorphic capitula and inner ray florets with the corolla shorter than the style.

Problems concern rank (subgenus vs. genus); type designation; cor- rect place of valid publication; alternative names; and other miscellaneous issues. An annotated list with correct nomenclatural information for 391 generic names or designations is provided, including types (newly designated here for 17 names) and one new combination (Gyptis tanacetifolia). The current taxonomic disposition of Cassini’s genera and the accepted names for the listed typonyms are consistently mentioned. The familiar names Felicia and Chrysopsis, already conserved, are threatened by unlisted earlier synonyms, and currently used Fulcaldea turns out to be illegitimate. Proposals to deal with these problems by conservation are being presented separately. Keywords Asteraceae; conservation; genera; nomenclature; subgenera; typification INTRODUCTION of valid publication for many of Cassini’s generic names, as well as their nomenclatural status and the identity of their type. Henri Cassini is considered the founder of modern syn- These problems have come to light with incipient work on a antherology (the study of Compositae or Asteraceae; King & Global Compositae Checklist (GCC, www.compositae.org/ Dawson, 1975).
