Notes on Epilobium (Onagraceae) from the Western Mediterranean
NOTES ON EPILOBIUM (ONAGRACEAE) FROM THE WESTERN MEDITERRANEAN by GONZALO NETO FELINER* Resumen NIETO FELINER, G. (1996). Notas sobre los Epilobium (Onagraceae) del Mediterráneo occidental. Anales Jard. Bot. Madrid 54: 255-264 (en inglés). Aportaciones taxonómicas sobre el género Epilobium que son consecuencia de la revisión lle- vada a cabo para producir una síntesis genérica destinada a Flora iberica. En particular, se acla- ran nombres tales como E. mutabile Boiss. & Reut., E. carpetanum Willk., E. psilotum Maire & Samuelsson o E. salcedoi Vicioso, así como varios creados por Sennen (E. barcinonense, E. gredillae, E. losae, E. rigatum, E. barnadesianum, E. debile, E. costeanum) y por Merino (£. maciae, E. simulans, E. tudense y E. lucense). Asimismo, se discute en detalle el problema de E. lamyi F.W. Schultz; en especial, se aclara el uso de dicho nombre por parte de botánicos que han trabajado en España y Portugal, y se rechazan las citas peninsulares del mismo. Se explican algunos problemas taxonómicos derivados de la variabilidad morfológica que exhiben E. duriaei, E. montanum, E. lanceolatum, E. collinum, E. tetragonum subsp. tournefortii y E. obscurum. De este último, adicionalmente, se aportan algunos datos de interés corológico. Palabras clave: Spermatophyta, Epilobium, Onagraceae, taxonomía, corología, Mediterráneo occidental.

Macfarlane's Four O'clock (Mirabilis Macfarlanei)
Macfarlane's four o'clock (Mirabilis macfarlanei) ENDANGERED Flowers (left), habit (center), and habitat (right) of Macfarlane’s four o’clock. Photos by Thomas Kaye. If downloading images from this website, please credit the photographer. Family Nyctaginaceae Plant description Macfarlane’s four o’clock is a stout perennial that forms hemispheric clumps 0.6-1.2 m in diameter, with several freely branched decumbent or ascending stems that are glabrous to sparsely puberulent. The leaves are opposite and fleshy, the lower blades orbicular to ovate-deltoid, the upper narrowly ovate. The petioles of lower leaves are 1- 2.5 cm long; upper leaves are nearly sessile. Flowers are clustered (4-7) in involucres borne on stalks about 1 cm long in the upper axils and on shoot apices. The conspicuous involucres are green to purplish, 1.3-2.5 cm long. The showy perianth is magenta, broadly funnelform, and 1.5-2.5 cm long, the limb slightly longer than the tube. The ellipsoid fruits are light brown to grayish, with 10 slender ribs visible when wet, 6-9 mm long, tuberculate, glabrous or very sparsely puberulent. Distinguishing characteristics No other Mirabilis species occur within the range of Macfarlane’s four o’clock. Mirabilis laevis var. retrorsa has shorter involucres (0.5-0.7 cm long), a white to pale pink perianth, and ranges from Malheur and Harney Counties in Oregon southward. Macfarlane’s four o’clock is most closely related to M. multiflora var. glandulosa and M. greenei, which occur in Nevada and California, respectively, and have longer involucres and larger perianths. -
Fall 2013 NARGS
Rock Garden uar terly � Fall 2013 NARGS to ADVERtISE IN thE QuARtERly CoNtACt [email protected] Let me know what yo think A recent issue of a chapter newsletter had an item entitled “News from NARGS”. There were comments on various issues related to the new NARGS website, not all complimentary, and then it turned to the Quarterly online and raised some points about which I would be very pleased to have your views. “The good news is that all the Quarterlies are online and can easily be dowloaded. The older issues are easy to read except for some rather pale type but this may be the result of scanning. There is amazing information in these older issues. The last three years of the Quarterly are also online but you must be a member to read them. These last issues are on Allen Press’s BrightCopy and I find them harder to read than a pdf file. Also the last issue of the Quarterly has 60 extra pages only available online. Personally I find this objectionable as I prefer all my content in a printed bulletin.” This raises two points: Readability of BrightCopy issues versus PDF issues Do you find the BrightCopy issues as good as the PDF issues? Inclusion of extra material in online editions only. Do you object to having extra material in the online edition which can not be included in the printed edition? Please take a moment to email me with your views Malcolm McGregor <[email protected]> CONTRIBUTORS All illustrations are by the authors of articles unless otherwise stated. -
1. Budorcas Taxicolor Tibetanus Milne-Edwards.- a Horn of an Adult and Skins and Skulls of Two Very Young Animals, Tai-Pa-Shiang, August 16 and October 25
59.9(51.4) Article XXIX.- MAMMALS FROM SHEN-SI PROVINCE, CHINA. By J. A. ALLEN. A small collection of mammals from Mount Tai-pai, Shen-si Province, China, recently acquired by the Museum through Mr. Alan Owston of Yokohama, contains several species of interest. It comprises 55 specimens, representing 16 species, some of which appear to be undescribed. The material is rather poorly prepared, the skulls having been left in the skins, and when removed were found to be more or less mutilated, some of them lacking the whole of the postorbital portion. The collection is of interest as coming from a hitherto unexplored locality, the Tai-pa-shiang mountains, on the western border of Shen-si, which are said to reach an altitude of about 11,000 feet. The specimens are mostly labeled simply "Tai-pa- shiang," with the sex of the specimen and date of collection, but a few are labeled as from "Yumonko, foot of Tai-pa-shiang," and others are marked "Si-Tai-pa-shiang." In no case is the altitude indicated. 1. Budorcas taxicolor tibetanus Milne-Edwards.- A horn of an adult and skins and skulls of two very young animals, Tai-pa-shiang, August 16 and October 25. The two specimens are respectively male and female, and differ much in color, the male having the body, except the ventral surface and the dorsal stripe, pale yellowish, the dorsal stripe, the ventral surface and limbs dark dull reddish brown; top of nose and edge of ears blackish. The other has the body nearly white, with the underparts and limbs dark brown; the dorsal stripe is dark brown only over the shoulders, and black mixed with white on the top of the neck and posterior two-thirds of the dorsal line; black hairs are also appearing on the limbs. -

Botrychium Paradoxum (Peculiar Moonwort) Predicted Suitable Habitat Modeling
Botrychium paradoxum (Peculiar Moonwort) Predicted Suitable Habitat Modeling Distribution Status: Present State Rank: S3 (Species of Concern) Global Rank: G3G4 Modeling Overview Created by: Braden Burkholder Creation Date: August 12, 2020 Evaluator: Scott Mincemoyer Evaluation Date: December 1, 2020 Inductive Model Goal: To predict the distribution and relative suitability of general habitat for Botrychium paradoxum at large spatial scales across its presumed range in Montana. Inductive Model Performance: The model appears to somewhat adequately reflect the distribution and relative suitability of general habitat for Botrychium paradoxum at larger spatial scales across its presumed range in Montana. Evaluation metrics indicate an acceptable model fit and the delineation of habitat suitability classes is reasonably well supported by the data. Model somewhat overpredicts suitable habitat in that areas of alpine in several mountains ranges is included. Otherwise, model appears reasonable given that the target species is known to occur in a variety of habitats. The model is presented as a reference, but more observation records, site-specific data, and/or other environmental layers may be needed to improve performance.
