The only exception is the Eurasian Sect. Cerris that comprises 15 species, a dozen of which are confined to western Eurasia. This section has not been comprehensively studied using molecular tools. Here, we assess species diversity and reconstruct a first comprehensive taxonomic scheme of western Eurasian members of Sect.

  • Witch-Hazel - Wikipedia, the Free Encyclopedia
    Witch-hazel - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Witch-hazel You can support Wikipedia by making a tax-deductible donation. Witch-hazel From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Witch-hazel (Hamamelis) is a genus of flowering plants in the Witch-hazel family Hamamelidaceae, with two species in North America (H. virginiana and H. vernalis), and one each in Japan (H. japonica) and China (H. mollis). They are deciduous shrubs or (rarely) small trees growing to 3-8 m tall, rarely to 12 m tall. The leaves are alternately arranged, oval, 4-16 cm long and 3-11 cm broad, with a smooth or wavy margin. The horticultural name means "together with fruit"; its fruit, flowers, and next year's leaf buds all appear on the branch simultaneously, a rarity among trees. [1] The flowers are sometimes produced on the leafless stems in winter, thus one alternative name for the plant, "Winterbloom". [1] Each flower has four slender strap-shaped petals 1-2 cm long, pale to dark yellow, orange, or red. The fruit is a two-part capsule 1 cm long, containing a single 5 mm glossy black seed in each of the two parts; the capsule splits explosively at maturity in the autumn about 8 months after flowering, ejecting the seeds with sufficient force to fly for distances of up to 10 m, thus another Hamamelis virginiana alternative name "Snapping Hazel". [1] Scientific classification Kingdom: Plantae Hamamelis species are used as food plants by the larvae of Division: Magnoliophyta some Lepidoptera species including Feathered Thorn. Class: Magnoliopsida The name Witch has its origins in Middle English wiche, from Order: Saxifragales the Old English wice, meaning "pliant" or "bendable".

  • Presenting Parrotia Persica 'Vanessa'
    Presenting Parrotia persica ‘Vanessa’ Your SMA 2014 Urban Tree of the Year Manager of Parks for Surrey, British Columbia Owen Croy wrote the Tree of Merit column in City Trees about Parrotia persica ‘Vanessa’ just last spring. He is gratified that this tree sailed on to take the big prize, SMA Urban Tree of the Year. Parrotia persica is most often called simply parrotia or Persian ironwood. Here’s an excerpt of Croy’s column about ‘Vanessa’ parrotia. he Persian ironwood tree is native to the lower mountain slopes Tof northern Iran, and it has been planted widely in cities across Europe and North America for many years. It has great colour in the spring, with glossy, green, red-tipped leaves that later turn a darker green through the summer. Fall colour is spectacular, often with leaves of multiple colours on the tree at the same time: orange, purple, yel- low and green. When older, this tree has flaky grey bark that is very attractive, giving it year-round appeal. The cultivar ‘Vanessa’ emerged from Europe in the 1970s and is now widely cultivated in North American nurseries. ‘Vanessa’ is upright, almost columnar, with branches that arch gracefully outward towards the tip. It is a slow-growing small tree, reaching a height of about 11 metres (36 feet) at maturity. Perhaps because of its slow growth rate, Parrotia ‘Vanessa’ fall color • Photo by Owen Croy it seems that much of the available nursery stock is slightly smaller than would be typical for street tree planting programs. It is hardy in USDA zones 4-8.

Beitr. 49/1 677-686 28.7.2017 New records of leafrollers reared in Azerbaijan (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae) Sheyda MAHARRAMOVA & Hamit AYBERK A b s t r a c t : 17 species of tortricid moths had been defined for the eastern parts of Azerbaijan during the years of 1994-2015. Five of these, Ptycholoma lecheana (LINNAEUS, 1758), Cacoecimorpha pronubana HÜBNER, 1799, Eudemis profundana ([DENIS & SCHIFFERMÜLLER], 1775), Hedya salicella (LINNAEUS, 1758), and Epinotia demarniana (FISCHER VON RÖSLERSTAMM, 1840), are new to the Azerbaijan fauna; two of them (Cacoecimorpha pronubana and Epinotia demarniana) are new to the Caucasian fauna, as well. Leafrollers were collected in the larval and pupal stage from March to September on their food plants according to the sampling methods. The early stages were kept in the laboratory until adult emergence, after which they were killed and pinned. Data on newly recorded leafrollers are given in the text including species name, collection area, coordinates of area, data of collection, food plants on which they were recorded, and sex of specimen(s). Key words: Tortricids, damage, host plants, Azerbaijan, fauna. Introduction Tortricidae, commonly known as leafrollers, are one of the most diverse families in the Microlepidoptera. The number of leafroller species in countries bordering Azerbaijan differs among the adjacent regions: 469 species are recorded from Turkey (KOÇAK & KEMAL 2012), 145 species from Iran (KOÇAK & KEMAL 2012), and 139 species from Georgia (ESARTIA 1988).
