    NETWORKING FOR DIVERSITY Annual Report 2017 – 2019 2017 – BGBM BGBM Annual Report 2017 – 2019 Cover image: Research into global biodiversity and its significance for humanity is impossible without networks. The topic of networking can be understood in different ways: in the natural world, with the life processes within an organism – visible in the network of the veins of a leaf or in the genetic diversity in populations of plants – networking takes place by means of pollen, via pollinators or the wind. In the world of research, individual objects, such as a particular plant, are networked with the data obtained from them. Networking is also crucial if this data is to be effective as a knowledge base for solving global issues of the future: collaboration between scientific experts within and across disciplines and with stakeholders at regional, national and international level.

  • Garden's Bulletin Part2 13.Indd
    Gardens’A Conspectus Bulletin of the Lichens Singapore (Lichenized 61 (2):Fungi) 437-481. of Singapore 2010 437 A Conspectus of the Lichens (Lichenized Fungi) of Singapore H.J.M. SIPMAN Free University of Berlin Botanical Garden and Museum Königin-Luise-Str. 6-8 D-14195 Berlin, Germany Abstract A total of 296 species of lichenized fungi are reported from Singapore and presented in an annotated list with local distributional information. It is based on herbarium and literature study and the fieldwork done in the year 2000. Unidentified samples suggest the figure to be an underestimation, while some of the listed species may have become extinct. Lists of synonyms and collectors are added. Introduction Tropical conurbations, the world’s most fast-growing habitat, have turned out to harbour significant numbers of lichenized fungi.A ptroot and Seaward (1999) and Aptroot and Sipman (2001) report no less than 308 species for the city of Hongkong. Singapore seems particularly suitable for a study of lichens in an urbanized tropical area because it has received regular attention from botanists during its development from primary lowland forest with small settlements ca 1800 to extensive plantations a century later and to the present urbanized area with large built-up high rise areas interspersed by parks and secondary forest. During 1800-1964 scattered lichen collections were made by visiting and resident general botanists, e.g., E. Almquist, O. Beccari, T.R. Chipp, Kiah, A.M. Lemaitre, A.C. Maingay, H. Möller. Their collections have been investigated and published by, e.g., Krempelhuber (1875, 1877), Nylander and Crombie (1884) and Müller Argoviensis (1893).

  • Phylogenetic Placement of the Enigmatic Orchid Genera Thaia and Tangtsinia: Evidence from Molecular and Morphological Characters
    TAXON 61 (1) • February 2012: 45–54 Xiang & al. • Phylogenetic placement of Thaia and Tangtsinia Phylogenetic placement of the enigmatic orchid genera Thaia and Tangtsinia: Evidence from molecular and morphological characters Xiao-Guo Xiang,1 De-Zhu Li,2 Wei-Tao Jin,1 Hai-Lang Zhou,1 Jian-Wu Li3 & Xiao-Hua Jin1 1 Herbarium & State Key Laboratory of Systematic and Evolutionary Botany, Institute of Botany, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing 100093, P.R. China 2 Key Laboratory of Biodiversity and Biogeography, Kunming Institute of Botany, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Kunming, Yunnan 650204, P.R. China 3 Xishuangbanna Tropical Botanical Garden, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Menglun Township, Mengla County, Yunnan province 666303, P.R. China Author for correspondence: Xiao-Hua Jin, [email protected] Abstract The phylogenetic position of two enigmatic Asian orchid genera, Thaia and Tangtsinia, were inferred from molecular data and morphological evidence. An analysis of combined plastid data (rbcL + matK + psaB) using Bayesian and parsimony methods revealed that Thaia is a sister group to the higher epidendroids, and tribe Neottieae is polyphyletic unless Thaia is removed. Morphological evidence, such as plicate leaves and corms, the structure of the gynostemium and the micromorphol- ogy of pollinia, also indicates that Thaia should be excluded from Neottieae. Thaieae, a new tribe, is therefore tentatively established. Using Bayesian and parsimony methods, analyses of combined plastid and nuclear datasets (rbcL, matK, psaB, trnL-F, ITS, Xdh) confirmed that the monotypic genus Tangtsinia was nested within and is synonymous with the genus Cepha- lanthera, in which an apical stigma has evolved independently at least twice.

    ❖Odontoglossum Alliances Newsletter November 1997 Enigmatic Odontoglossums, Part 4 The Odontoglossmn cristatmn complex Text and Photographs by Stig Dalstrom ■ In 1841, CARL THEODOR HARTWEG traveled through the mountains of southwestern Ecuador. Near the village of Paccha he discovered some orchid plants that John Lindley later described as Odontoglossum cristatum (1844) As the name cristatum indicates, this species is character­ ized by the prominent and radiating callus teeth on the lip, which also generally have bright colored streaks of yellow, red, or purple. This characteristic stands out as the most typical feature for all members of this species complex. Today, 0dm. cristatum is still fairly common. It occurs as an epiphyte on the lower hills around the city ofZaruma, at the amazingly low altitude of 3,940 to 4,920 feet (1200 to 1500 m). The flowers of 0dm. cristatum are quite constant morphologically, as long as plants from the type area are studied. They are of intermediate size for the genus, fairly slender and with developed column wings , frequently recurved as in the shape of a shark’s fm, triangular or hook like. Furthermore, the plant is often “wobbly,” giving the impression of having a broken rizome. I am not aware of any collections of this species south of this area, possibly due to the dry and desert like habitat that extends from here. But it is not uncommon if we turn north from Zaruma, along the western slopes of the Andes. It is frequently encountered along the road from Santa Domingo de los Colorados to­ ward Quito, at altitudes between 4,265 and 6,560 feet (1,300 to 2,000 m).

    Lichenologist 26(2): 205-207 (1994) OBITUARY GUNNAR DEGELIUS 27 January 1903-22 July 1993 f f With the death of Prof. Gunnar Degelius, who passed away on 22 July 1993, the British Lichen Society has lost one of its most respected Honorary Members, and world lichenology its Grand Old Man. Degelius was born in Uppsala on 27 January 1903, but spent most of his childhood in Mariestad, a small city on Lake Vanern. His father, Bror Nilsson, was a pharmacist and amateur botanist, who very early on introduced his son to botany. Gunnar Nilsson (he changed his name to Degelius in 1932) already had a quite comprehensive collection of phanerogams by the age of six (now in GB), and at 12 he collected his first lichen, Peltigera canina, a specimen still in his herbarium. The family then moved to Goteborg where he met an amateur lichenologist, Captain Carl Stenholm (1862-1939) and also the famous Adolf Hugo Magnusson (1885-1964) both of whom inspired his lichenological 0024-2829/94/020205 + 03 808.00/0 © 1994 The British Lichen Society Downloaded from https://www.cambridge.org/core.

    Plant Trivia TimeLine A Chronology of Plants and People The TimeLine presents world history from a botanical viewpoint. It includes brief stories of plant discovery and use that describe the roles of plants and plant science in human civilization. The Time- Line also provides you as an individual the opportunity to reflect on how the history of human interaction with the plant world has shaped and impacted your own life and heritage. Information included comes from secondary sources and compila- tions, which are cited. The author continues to chart events for the TimeLine and appreciates your critique of the many entries as well as suggestions for additions and improvements to the topics cov- ered.

The user has requested enhancement of the downloaded file. The Genus Systeloglossum ROBERT L. DRESSLER AND NORRIS H. WILLIAMS HE COMPLEX OF GENERA which make up the subtribe Oncidiinae are notable for their great diversity of flower structure. It is not surprising T that Schlechter grouped these genera into as many as ten different btribes. How can one imagine close relationships between Notylia and ~richoPilia, or Quekettia and Odontoglossum? In spite of their striking differences, we now group them all into the subtribe Oncidiinae, for two 'mportant reasons. First, crossing experiments, especially those of Mr. Moir, ~ave shown that the whole group is closely tied together by interfertility. We may not be able to cross Comparettia with Brassia, but we can cross both with Oncidium. The second reason for grouping them together is that even the morphological differences do not hold up very well on close inspection. Notylia may seem very different from Trichopilia, but Notylia and Macradenia are surely closely related, and Macradenia and Trichopilia subulata are perhaps more similar to each other than T .

  • Josef Hafellner – a Life Amongst Lichens and Their Parasites
    Herzogia 29 (2) Teil 1, 2016: 213 –234 213 Josef Hafellner – a life amongst lichens and their parasites Martin Grube, Walter Obermayer*, Helmut Mayrhofer & Toby Spribille Abstract: Grube, M., Obermayer, W., Mayrhofer, H. & Spribille, T. 2016. Josef Hafellner – a life amongst lichens and their parasites. – Herzogia 29: 213 –234. The impact of Josef Hafellners scientific work on the systematics of lichenized ascomycetes and on the knowledge on lichenicolous fungi is discussed and the value of his extensive collections (c. 100,000 lichens including c. 8,000 lichenicolous fungi) is highlighted. A bibliography (1975 –2016) is presented. Zusammenfassung: Grube, M., Obermayer, W., Mayrhofer, H. & Spribille, T. 2016. Josef Hafellner – ein Leben inmitten von Flechten und ihren Parasiten. – Herzogia 29: 213 –234. Der Einfluss von Josef Hafellners wissenschaftlichen Arbeiten auf die Systematik von lichenisierten Ascomyceten und auf die Kenntnis von flechtenbewohnenden Pilzen wird diskutiert und auf den Wert seiner umfangreichen Aufsammlungen (ca. 100.000 Belege, davon ca. 8.000 Belege lichenicole Pilze) hingewiesen. Eine Publikationsliste (von 1975 bis 2016) wird vorgelegt. Key words: Bibliography, eponyms, lichenicolous fungi, European Alps. Introduction Few scientists make such a mark on their science that they can be said to change their field, and fewer still are involved in setting up the framework for an entire branch of natural history. One such person is Josef Hafellner, to whom we dedicate the present contribution. Conscious that he is – notwithstanding his recent retirement – still very much fully active as a researcher, we wish here to highlight his impact on our science to date. Josef Hafellner has dedicated his scientific career to the classification and taxonomy of fungi, in particular lichen-forming asco- mycetes and the fungi inhabiting lichen symbioses (known as lichenicolous fungi).
