Postal: 4-116 Itzimná, Mérida, Yucatán 97100, México. 3E.-mail [email protected] (Author for correspondence) Abstract Three new species of Hechtia from the Mexican State of Oaxaca are herein proposed as new: Hechtia flexilifolia, H. hua- melulaensis, and H. nivea, from the physiogeographical provinces of Mixteca Alta, Costas del Sur, and Sierras Centrales de Oaxaca respectively. All three species are described and illustrated. Iconography provided features plants in habitat and under cultivation. An assessment of their conservation status sensu IUCN criteria is presented as well. We also discuss and illustrate the three growth patterns identified at this time in the genus. Keywords: Diversity, endemism, growth patterns, IUCN, Oaxaca, physiogeographical regions Introduction Oaxaca ranks third in vascular plant diversity among Mexican states only after Chiapas and Guerrero, with 251 families, comprising 1,824 genera and 8,431 species (García-Mendoza 2004). Among them, angiosperms are the most numerous with 7,752 species, whereas Bromeliaceae is the seventh most diverse family of monocots.

Abstract A multivariate analysis of the Pitcairnia palmeri group are presented. Principal Components and Cluster analyses were per- formed in order to have more accurate information to delimit the species. The analyses showed that the specimens referred to Pitcairnia palmeri var. longebracteata are clearly delimited, while those identified as P. palmeri var. palmeri, P. colimensis, and P. compostelae have a greater overlap of morphological characters, but remain as separate entities. A discriminant analy- sis showed that morphological characters used have significant multivariate differences between the taxa (P < 0.0005), and that the most important variables in the differentiation of these taxa are the percentage of floral bracts that exceeds the length of the sepals, the length of the floral bracts, and the length of the peduncle. We conclude that P. palmeri var. longebracteata is clearly a different species, not a variety, therefore is described and illustrated as P.

Schmitz1 and Vera L. S. Valente2 1 Universidade Federal da Integração-Latino-Americana, Foz do Iguaçu, PR, Brazil; [email protected] 2 Programa de Pós-Graduação em Genética e Biologia Molecular, Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul, Porto Alegre, RS, Brazil; [email protected] Abstract Diptera is a megadiverse order, reaching its peak of diversity in Neotropics, although our knowledge of dipteran fauna of this region is grossly deficient. This applies even for the most studied families, as Drosophilidae. Despite its position of evidence, most aspects of the biology of these insects are still poorly understood, especially those linked to natural communities. Field studies on drosophilids are highly biased to fruit-breeders species. Flower-breeding drosophilids, however, are worldwide distributed, especially in tropical regions, although being mostly neglected. The present paper shows results of a biodiversity inventory of flower-breeding drosophilids carried out in Brazil, based on samples of 125 plant species, from 47 families. Drosophilids were found in flowers of 56 plant species, of 18 families. The fauna discovered showed to be highly unknown, comprising 28 species, 12 of them (>40%) still undescribed.
  • Synonyms Listed in Smith & Downs Monograph (3

    Synonyms Listed in Smith & Downs Monograph (3

    SYNONYMS LISTED IN SMITH & DOWNS MONOGRAPH (3 VOLUMES 1974-79) Compiled by DEREK BUTCHER Cultivar Registrar Bromeliad Society International FIRST EDITION Published by The Bromeliad Society International JULY 2006 INTRODUCTION The index in the 3 volumes of the Smith & Downs monograph contains all names used in Bromeliaceae in the history of botany. To find out details about the particular name you have to search for the particular page, which can be frustrating especially if the bold face indicating current name has faded! I decided to go through the three volumes and compile my own list so I could refer to the entry concerned. Names quoted by Lyman Smith are not necessarily legitimate names and some are passing references made in botanical journals. Another problem is in duplication of names such as Aechmea amazonica where the ‘legitimate’ name has become Wittrockia amazonica whereas a passing reference to Aechmea amazonica leads to Aechmea chantinii. Such are the problems of taxonomical synonymy. In my own records of individual Bromeliaceae species I hold details of synonyms under the ‘current’ name. Hence I find this reference list very helpful when reading old documents such as Baker’s Bromeliaceae 1889 and Mez 1935. There is also an increased availability of scans of herbarium specimens on the internet and these are filed mostly under the original name!

  • Water Relations of Bromeliaceae in Their Evolutionary Context

    Water Relations of Bromeliaceae in Their Evolutionary Context

    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Apollo Botanical Journal of the Linnean Society, 2016, 181, 415–440. With 2 figures Think tank: water relations of Bromeliaceae in their evolutionary context JAMIE MALES* Department of Plant Sciences, University of Cambridge, Downing Street, Cambridge CB2 3EA, UK Received 31 July 2015; revised 28 February 2016; accepted for publication 1 March 2016 Water relations represent a pivotal nexus in plant biology due to the multiplicity of functions affected by water status. Hydraulic properties of plant parts are therefore likely to be relevant to evolutionary trends in many taxa. Bromeliaceae encompass a wealth of morphological, physiological and ecological variations and the geographical and bioclimatic range of the family is also extensive. The diversification of bromeliad lineages is known to be correlated with the origins of a suite of key innovations, many of which relate directly or indirectly to water relations. However, little information is known regarding the role of change in morphoanatomical and hydraulic traits in the evolutionary origins of the classical ecophysiological functional types in Bromeliaceae or how this role relates to the diversification of specific lineages. In this paper, I present a synthesis of the current knowledge on bromeliad water relations and a qualitative model of the evolution of relevant traits in the context of the functional types. I use this model to introduce a manifesto for a new research programme on the integrative biology and evolution of bromeliad water-use strategies. The need for a wide-ranging survey of morphoanatomical and hydraulic traits across Bromeliaceae is stressed, as this would provide extensive insight into structure– function relationships of relevance to the evolutionary history of bromeliads and, more generally, to the evolutionary physiology of flowering plants.

    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.
