Muell. (Asteraceae: Senecioneae) Ekaterina D. Malenkova, Lyudmila V. Ozerova, Ivan A. Schanzer & Alexander C. Timonin Summary: Analyses of ITS1-2 data from a comprehensive sample of African succulent species of Senecio and related genera reveals that Senecio tropaeolifolius, though closely related to S. oxyriifolius, should be treated as a separate species. According to our results, it may be one of the parental species to S. kleiniiformis, a widely cultivated ornamental of uncertain hybrid origin. Keywords: Asteraceae, Senecioneae, taxonomy, systematics, Senecio kleiniiformis, ITS1-2 Senecio tropaeolifolius MacOwan ex F. Muell. is a widely cultivated succulent ornamental (Brickell 2003) whose taxonomic rank has remained uncertain so far. Its similarity to S. oxyriifolius DC. was mentioned in its first description (Mueller 1867) and Rowley (1994, 2002) rendered it as a subspecies of the latter one. However, Jeffrey (1986, 1992) treated these allopatric (Fig. 1) taxa, S. tropaeolifolius and S. oxyriifolius, as two separate species in the section Peltati. According to their descriptions, these two species differ mainly in their growth form, the number of involucral bracts of the capitula, the number of florets in the capitula, the presence/absence of ray florets and bristles on cypselae. All these characters are rather variable amongSenecio L. s. latiss. and their taxonomic value is questionable. Molecular data drastically changed the understanding of taxonomy and phylogeny of Senecio and related genera (Pelser et al.

Knox b a School of Animal, Plant and Environmental Sciences, University of the Witwatersrand, Private Bag 3, Wits 2050, South Africa b Department of Biology, Indiana University, Bloomington, IN 47405, USA Received 16 August 2006; received in revised form 23 April 2007; accepted 25 April 2007 Abstract Cineraria lobata is a highly variable species centred in the Western and Eastern Cape Provinces, South Africa, with disjunct populations in Mpumalanga and Limpopo Provinces. Morphological variation was examined in order to delimit the species and to determine whether recognition at infraspecific levels was warranted. Plants from the Ngwenya Hills, Swaziland, similar to C. lobata in leaf shape and size, but with glabrous cypselae and a distinct type of trichome, are recognized as a distinct, but closely related species, C. ngwenyensis. Cluster Analysis and Principal Coordinates Analysis supported the recognition of four subspecies in C. lobata: from the Western Cape (ssp. lobata), Karoo (ssp. lasiocaulis), Soutpansberg (ssp. soutpansbergensis) and Eastern Cape (ssp. platyptera) regions. Five forms of C. lobata ssp. lobata from the Western Cape are also informally recognised. © 2007 SAAB. Published by Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Characteristics and Consequences of Invasion by Sweet Resin Bush into the Arid Southwestern United States Elizabeth A. Pierson and Joseph R. McAuliffe1 Abstract.-Eutyops multifidus (sweet resin bush), a shrubby composite native to South Africa, was introduced to the arid southwestern United States in 1935 by the USDA Soil Conservation Service. The spread of this shrub represents one of the most serious threats to the ecological integrity and economic value of several ecosystems in the semiarid Southwest. In southern Arizona, this shrub readily invades vegetationally intact, semi-arid grasslands and eventually forms virtually uninterrupted monocultures from which native grasses, shrubs, and succulents are almost completely excluded. Study of plant responses at the advancing front of the areas occupied by sweet resin bush demonstrated that death of native species is linked to the spread of this exotic shrub. These dramatic vegetation alterations are persistent and lead to a variety of additional detrimental changes, including marked increases in soil erosion. We have identified the climatic, vegetation, elevation, and soil characteristics of sites that are susceptible to invasion by E. multifidus. In southern Arizona sweet resin bush can occur in vegetation ranging from Sonoran Desert at low elevation (ca. 850-1060 m) to grasslands, chaparral, and woodland at higher elevation (ca. 1300+ m). In grassland, this shrub can invade a wide variety of different soil types, ranging from loamy calcic soils typically occupied by stands of black grama (Bouteloua eriopoda) to heavy clay soils occupied by tobosa (Hilaria mutica) and curly mesquite (H.

The first feast for bees, in the shrubland short of trees not breeze. Sun’s rays soon last longer in the days: Babianas, Chlorophytums, Geissorhizas, Gladiolius’s, Hesperanthas, Lachenalias, Moraeas and Trachyandras spread their cheerful gaze. Accompanied by annual daisies and bright gladioli filling the air with strong scents of honey - monkey beetles waste no time as they perch upon delicate flowers, lest they are caught in the season’s showers. As if to suggest this is the best nature sends small midge flies to pollinate in jest, and surround mammals to tease their bloody channels. Another month has come and gone - not long now for the raaptol and Micranthus which provide nectar for brown butterflies and painted ladies. Then is the last sequence of bulbs - the fine white-filled fields of chinkerinchees. Grasses’ hour is now soaking up the sun displaying beautifully crafted silhouettes till summers end. As if heaven sent delicate geophytes are still producing their charm, when botanists avoid the midday sun. A brief lapse in displays until the autumn reds begin the seasonal cycles.” Figure a: From left to right: Moraea villosa (Ker Gawl.) Ker Gawl.
