Crawford" (ASTERACEAE)' ABSTRACT Reportsof 68 new chromosomecounts attributed to 53 species from25 generaof Eupatorieaeof the Asteraceae, based mostlyon determinationsof mitoticmaterials, include first counts for 2 genera(Acanthostyles and Lepidesmia) and 14 species and new reportsfor 8 species. B chromosomesare reportedfor 4 generaand 12 species. Karyotype analysesmade on 20 species of Eupatorieaeand one species of Heliantheaeshowed that total karyotypic lengths of the taxa withn = 16-19 of helianthoidand eupatorioidtaxa are comparableto thoseof some eupatorioidtaxa withn = 10. This is contraryto the previoushypothesis that the higherchromosome numbers n = 16-19 werederived from n = 10 by polyploidizationfollowed by dysploidloss. Cytologicaldata supplementand are consistentwith the following conclusionspredicted from molecular phylogenetical and biochemicaldata: (1) The ultimatebase numberof Eupatorieae is 17, and thelower numbers are derivedby successivedysploid reductions; (2) A reductionin chromosomaland total karyotypiclength accompanied by evolutionaryadvancement has been revealedfor some generaand species within this tribe;(3) A high base numberof x = 17 in Eupatorieaeis consideredto be deriveddirectly from one of the membersof Heliantheaewith n = 17 to 19. The Eupatorieaeare a verydiversified tribe and chromosomenumbers are amongthe mostreadily consistof morethan 2300 species and 180 genera definedtaxonomically.

    Traits-Based and Perception Approaches for Management of Invasive Exotic Species from Tropical Botanic Gardens

    TRAITS-BASED AND PERCEPTION APPROACHES FOR MANAGEMENT OF INVASIVE EXOTIC SPECIES FROM TROPICAL BOTANIC GARDENS DECKY INDRAWAN JUNAEDI Submitted in the total fulfillment of the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy June 2018 School of Biosciences University of Melbourne 1 Abstract ABSTRACT The factors driving plant invasion are key questions in invasion ecology. Traits also can act as indicators of plant invasion processes. If traits are proven to be a significant proxy for plant invasiveness, then invasiveness of exotic species may be efficiently predicted by measuring traits. Botanic gardens have consistently supported ex-situ plant conservation, research, and environmental education. However, botanic gardens can also be pathways of exotic invasive species introduction. Botanic gardens should become a strategic stakeholder for exotic invasive plant species management. For exotic invasive species management, we cannot solely rely on ecological approaches. Social perception is an important component of invasive species management. Social perception may become either a problem or a solution for invasive species management. These perceptions should be clarified among relevant stakeholders to minimize conflicts of interest among relevant stakeholders of invasive species management. This study focuses on invasive plant species in tropical environments and the aim of this study is to answer the following questions: (1) Focusing on the relationship between exotic species abundance and traits in the tropical ecosystem, what traits

Apartado postal 70- 233, 04510 México D. F., Mexico. [email protected] Abstract. Trees or tree-like plants are defined here broadly as perennial, self-supporting plants with a total height of at least 5 m (without ascending leaves or inflorescences), and with one or several erect stems with a diameter of at least 10 cm. We continue our compilation of an updated list of all native Mexican tree species with the dicotyledonous families Asteraceae (36 species, 39% endemic), Leguminosae with its 3 subfamilies (449 species, 41% endemic), and Rubiaceae (134 species, 24% endemic). The tallest tree species reach 20 m in the Asteraceae, 70 m in the Leguminosae, and also 70 m in the Rubiaceae. The species-richest genus is Lonchocarpus with 67 tree species in Mexico. Three legume genera are endemic to Mexico (Conzattia, Hesperothamnus, and Heteroflorum). The appendix lists all species, including their original publication, references of taxonomic revisions, existence of subspecies or varieties, maximum height in Mexico, and endemism status. Key words: biodiversity, flora, tree definition. Resumen. Las plantas arbóreas o arborescentes se definen aquí en un sentido amplio como plantas perennes que se pueden sostener por sí solas, con una altura total de al menos 5 m (sin considerar hojas o inflorescencias ascendentes) y con uno o varios tallos erectos de un diámetro de al menos 10 cm.

PhytoKeys 9: 15–179. doi: 10.3897/phytokeys.9.2279 Abstract Th e Department of Ñeembucú is one of the least well-documented areas of eastern Paraguay, and the fl ora is composed of a mixture of forest and Chaco elements. Regions like Ñeembucú are often considered of lower diversity and interest that more forested regions; this results from both actual species richness fi gures and from under-collecting due to perception as uninteresting. We present here a checklist of the vascular plants of Ñeembucú, which includes 676 taxa (including infraspecifi c taxa and collections identifi ed only to genus) in 100 families and 374 genera. Four hundred and thirty nine (439) of these are new records for Ñeembucú and of these, 4 are new published records for Paraguay.

    Epilist 1.0: a Global Checklist of Vascular Epiphytes

    Zurich Open Repository and Archive University of Zurich Main Library Strickhofstrasse 39 CH-8057 Zurich www.zora.uzh.ch Year: 2021 EpiList 1.0: a global checklist of vascular epiphytes Zotz, Gerhard ; Weigelt, Patrick ; Kessler, Michael ; Kreft, Holger ; Taylor, Amanda Abstract: Epiphytes make up roughly 10% of all vascular plant species globally and play important functional roles, especially in tropical forests. However, to date, there is no comprehensive list of vas- cular epiphyte species. Here, we present EpiList 1.0, the first global list of vascular epiphytes based on standardized definitions and taxonomy. We include obligate epiphytes, facultative epiphytes, and hemiepiphytes, as the latter share the vulnerable epiphytic stage as juveniles. Based on 978 references, the checklist includes >31,000 species of 79 plant families. Species names were standardized against World Flora Online for seed plants and against the World Ferns database for lycophytes and ferns. In cases of species missing from these databases, we used other databases (mostly World Checklist of Selected Plant Families). For all species, author names and IDs for World Flora Online entries are provided to facilitate the alignment with other plant databases, and to avoid ambiguities. EpiList 1.0 will be a rich source for synthetic studies in ecology, biogeography, and evolutionary biology as it offers, for the first time, a species‐level overview over all currently known vascular epiphytes. At the same time, the list represents work in progress: species descriptions of epiphytic taxa are ongoing and published life form information in floristic inventories and trait and distribution databases is often incomplete and sometimes evenwrong.
