Pelagodoxa Henryana (Arecaceae): a Supplement of Additional Photographs and Figures to the 2019 Article in the Journal PALMS
PALMARBOR Hodel et al.: Pelagodoxa supplement 2019-1: 1-24 Pelagodoxa henryana (Arecaceae): A Supplement of Additional Photographs and Figures to the 2019 Article in the Journal PALMS DONALD R. HODEL, JEAN-FRANCOIS BUTAUD, CRAIG E. BARRETT, MICHAEL H. GRAYUM, JAMES KOMEN, DAVID H. LORENCE, JEFF MARCUS, AND ARIITEUIRA FALCHETTO With its large, initially undivided leaves; big, curious, warty fruits; monotypic nature; and mysterious, remote, island habitat, Pelagodoxa henryana has long fascinated palm botanists, collectors and growers, and been one of the holy grails of all who have an interest in palms. The possibility of a second species of Pelagodoxa has generated a substantial amount of interest but the recent literature on the subject has dismissed this prospect and accepted or recognized only one species. However, for 40 years the senior author has propagated and grown P. henryana nearly side by side with a second species of the genus, first in Hawaii, U.S.A and later at his wife’s home in Papeari, Tahiti, French Polynesia, allowing ample opportunity to compare and contrast the two species at various stages of development. An article we wrote reassessing the genus Pelagodoxa was published in the journal PALMS [Hodel et al., Reassessment of Pelagodoxa, PALMS 63(3): 113-146. 2019]. In it we document substantial and critical differences between the two species, P. henryana and P. mesocarpa, establish the validity and resurrect the name of the second species from synonymy, discuss molecular data, phylogeny and phytogeography, ethnobotany and conservation of Pelagodoxa and what impact, if any, they might have had in its speciation and insular distribution. -

Received: 3 September 2012; in revised form: 29 October 2012 / Accepted: 16 November 2012 / Published: 23 November 2012 Abstract: Species endemic to mountains on oceanic islands are subject to a number of existing threats (in particular, invasive species) along with the impacts of a rapidly changing climate. The Lord Howe Island endemic palm Hedyscepe canterburyana is restricted to two mountains above 300 m altitude. Predation by the introduced Black Rat (Rattus rattus) is known to significantly reduce seedling recruitment. We examined the variation in Hedyscepe in terms of genetic variation, morphology, reproductive output and demographic structure, across an altitudinal gradient. -

Species Delimitation and Hybrid Identification of Acrocomia Aculeata
Species delimitation and hybrid identification of Acrocomia aculeata and A. totai by genetic population approach Brenda D´ıaz1, Maria Zucchi2, Alessandro Alves-Pereira1, Joaquim Azevedo-Filho2, Mariana Sanit´a2, and Carlos Colombo2 1State University of Campinas 2Instituto Agronomico October 9, 2020 Abstract To the Neotropical genus Acrocomia (Arecaceae) is attributed eight species with a wide distribution in America. A. aculeata and A. totai are the most important species because of their high economic potential for oil production. However, there is no consensus in their classification as different taxons and their distinctiveness is particularly challenging due to morphological similarities with large plasticity of the traits. In addition, there is doubt about the occurrence of interspecific hybrids between both species. In this study, we applied a genetic population approach to assessing the genetic boundaries, diversity and to identify interspecific hybrids of A. aculeata and A. totai. Thirteen loci of simple sequence repeat (SSR) were employed to analyze twelve populations representing a wide distribution of species, from Minas Gerais, Brazil to Formosa, Argentina. Based on the Bayesian analysis (STRUCTURE and NewHybrids) and Discriminant Analysis of Principal Components (DAPC), our study supports the recognition of A. aculeata and A. totai as two species and the estimates of genetic parameters revealed more genetic diversity in A. totai (HE=0.551) than in A. aculeata (HE=0.466). We obtained evidence of hybridization between the species and that admixed individuals were assigned as F2 hybrids. In conclusion, this study showed the usefulness of microsatellite markers to elucidate the genetic boundaries of A. aculeata and A. totai, supporting their classification as different species and increase our knowledge about genetic diversity at the level of populations and species. -

A Review of Animal-Mediated Seed Dispersal of Palms
Selbyana 11: 6-21 A REVIEW OF ANIMAL-MEDIATED SEED DISPERSAL OF PALMS SCOTT ZoNA Rancho Santa Ana Botanic Garden, 1500 North College Avenue, Claremont, California 91711 ANDREW HENDERSON New York Botanical Garden, Bronx, New York 10458 ABSTRACT. Zoochory is a common mode of dispersal in the Arecaceae (palmae), although little is known about how dispersal has influenced the distributions of most palms. A survey of the literature reveals that many kinds of animals feed on palm fruits and disperse palm seeds. These animals include birds, bats, non-flying mammals, reptiles, insects, and fish. Many morphological features of palm infructescences and fruits (e.g., size, accessibility, bony endocarp) have an influence on the animals which exploit palms, although the nature of this influence is poorly understood. Both obligate and opportunistic frugivores are capable of dispersing seeds. There is little evidence for obligate plant-animaI mutualisms in palm seed dispersal ecology. In spite of a considerable body ofliterature on interactions, an overview is presented here ofthe seed dispersal (Guppy, 1906; Ridley, 1930; van diverse assemblages of animals which feed on der Pijl, 1982), the specifics ofzoochory (animal palm fruits along with a brief examination of the mediated seed dispersal) in regard to the palm role fruit and/or infructescence morphology may family have been largely ignored (Uhl & Drans play in dispersal and subsequent distributions. field, 1987). Only Beccari (1877) addressed palm seed dispersal specifically; he concluded that few METHODS animals eat palm fruits although the fruits appear adapted to seed dispersal by animals. Dransfield Data for fruit consumption and seed dispersal (198lb) has concluded that palms, in general, were taken from personal observations and the have a low dispersal ability, while Janzen and literature, much of it not primarily concerned Martin (1982) have considered some palms to with palm seed dispersal. -

The flowering behaviour of palm species may be a useful indicator of phylogenetic relationships and therefore evolutionary events. This paper presents a detailed histological study of reproductive development in coconut (Cocos nucifera L.), from initiation up to maturation of staminate and pistillate flowers. Reproductive development in coconut consists of a sequence of individual events that span more than two years. Floral morphogenesis is the longest event, taking about one year, while sex determination is a rapid process that occurs within one month. The inflorescence consists of different ultimate floral structural components. Pistillate flowers are borne in floral triads that are flanked by two functional staminate flowers.
