ZULOAGA1 1Instituto de Botánica Darwinion, Labardén 200, Casilla de Correo 22, B1642HYD, San Isidro, Buenos Aires, Argentina. 2Author for correspondence: [email protected] Abstract Panicum scabridum, an incertae sedis species of Panicum s.l., is here included in the genus Coleataenia, following a phylogenetic analysis based on one new ndhF sequence of the species and associated morphological data. Panicum scabridum and species of Coleataenia are cespitose and perennial plants, with a lower glume (1–)3–5-nerved, 1/3 to 3/4 of the spikelet, upper glume and lower lemma 5–9-nerved, and upper anthecium smooth, shiny, and indurate. Within Coleataenia, P. scabridum appeared as the sister taxon of the species pair C. prionitis and C. petersonii; these three species are the only NADP-me taxa of tribe Paspaleae exhibiting two bundle sheaths around the vascular bundles, i.e., with an outer parenchymatous sheath and an inner mestome sheath with specialized chloroplasts. The new combination Coleataenia scabrida is proposed and a lectotype is designated. Key words: Panicum scabridum, phylogeny, combined analysis, anatomy Introduction Panicum scabridum Döll (1877: 201), originally described from a specimen collected in Brazil, grows in Colombia, Venezuela and the Guianas to northern Brazil and Bolivia, in wet open places at low elevations.

Aquatic herbaceous plants are especially suitable for mapping environmental variability in wetlands, as they respond quickly to environmental gradients and are good indicators of habitat preference. We describe the composition of herbaceous species in two oligotrophic wetland ecosystems, floodplains along black-water rivers (igapó) and wetlands upon hydromorphic sand soils (campinarana) in the Parque Nacional do Jaú and the Reserva de Desenvolvimento Sustentável Uatumã in Central Amazonia, both protected areas. We tested for the potential distribution range (PDR) of the most frequent species of these ecosystems, which are the ones that occurred in at least two of the sampled wetlands, using species distribution models (SDMs). In total, 98 aquatic herbaceous species were recorded, of which 63 occurred in igapós and 44 in campinaranas. Most igapó species had ample PDRs across the Neotropics, while most campinaranas species were restricted to the Amazon Basin. These results are congruent with studies that described similar distribution patterns for tree and bird species, which emphasizes a high degree of endemism in Amazonian campinarana. However, we also found differences in the potential distribution of species between the two protected areas, indicating high environmental variability of oligotrophic ecosystems that deserve further investigation to develop effective measures for their conservation and protection.

  • Fire: Its Effect on Grasslands, Including Swamps-Southern, Central and Eastern Africa
    Fire: Its Effect on Grasslands, Including Swamps-Southern, Central and Eastern Africa H. J. VAN RENSBURG Range Ecologist, F. A. O. Gabrone, Botsrwana* INTRODUCTION THE aspects of fire described in this paper relate to a very large area. The contents are based on the results from experi­ ments and observations carried out in Southern, Central and Eastern Africa for many years. Conditions vary greatly, climatically, topographically and in vege­ tation types and soils. They range from coastal regions with variable grassland-woodland formations to high altitude mountain grassland and woodland associations. There are extensive inland plateaux sup­ porting mixed vegetation communities. There are extensive flood plains associated with large drainage systems. These are subjected to various degrees of inundation. Some flood plain areas are rela­ tively dry while others are under permanent swamp and lagoon. Due to the extent and complexity of this subject, it is only pos­ sible to deal with relatively few aspects . .. Current address: Pasture & Fodder Crops Branch, Plant Production & Protec­ tion Division, F.A.O., Rome, Italy. 175 H. J. VAN RENSBURG Fires are cleansers as well as destroyers. Nature gives of her bounty and if man does not use it to the utmost, he is left with a residue that, in course of time, becomes a hazard. In most parts of Africa there is no rain for about 8 months of the year. People wait and pray for rain so that crops and pastures may grow. Growth is rapid during the rainy season. Herbage, surplus to grazing requirements, should be converted into hay and silage while it is still young and nutritious.

Peterson, and Hasnaa A. Hosni SERIES PUBLICATIONS OF THE SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION Emphasis upon publication as a means of “diffusing knowledge” was expressed by the first Secretary of the Smithsonian. In his formal plan for the Institution, Joseph Henry outlined a program that included the following statement: “It is proposed to publish a series of reports, giving an account of the new discoveries in science, and of the changes made from year to year in all branches of knowledge.” This theme of basic research has been adhered to through the years in thousands of titles issued in series publications under the Smithsonian imprint, commencing with Smithsonian Contributions to Knowledge in 1848 and continuing with the following active series: Smithsonian Contributions to Anthropology Smithsonian Contributions to Botany Smithsonian Contributions to History and Technology Smithsonian Contributions to the Marine Sciences Smithsonian Contributions to Museum Conservation Smithsonian Contributions to Paleobiology Smithsonian Contributions to Zoology In these series, the Smithsonian Institution Scholarly Press (SISP) publishes small papers and full-scale monographs that report on research and collections of the Institution’s museums and research centers. The Smithsonian Contributions Series are distributed via exchange mailing lists to libraries, universities, and similar institutions throughout the world. Manuscripts intended for publication in the Contributions Series undergo substantive peer review and evalu- ation by SISP’s Editorial Board, as well as evaluation by SISP for compliance with manuscript preparation guidelines (available at https://scholarlypress.si.edu).
