Minno2 Introduction Distribution The cloudless sulphur, Phoebis sennae (Linnaeus), is one of The cloudless sulphur is widspread in the southern United our most common and attractive Florida butterflies and is States, and it strays northward to Colorado, Nebraska, Iowa, particularly prominent during its fall southward migration. Illinois, Indiana and New Jersey (Minno et al. 2005), and Its genus name is derived from Phoebe, the sister of Apollo, even into Canada (Riotte 1967). It is also found southward a god of Greek and Roman mythology (Opler and Krizek through South America to Argentina and in the West Indies 1984). The specific epithet, sennae, is for the genus Senna (Heppner 2007). to which many of the cloudless sulphur’s larval host plants belong. Description Adults Wing spans range from 4.8 to 6.5 cm (approximately 1.9 to 2.6 in) (Minno and Minno 1999). Adults are usually bright yellow, but some summer form females are pale yellow or white (Minno and Minno 1999, Opler and Krizek 1984). Females have a narrow black border on the wings and a dark spot in the middle of the front wing. Males are season- ally dimorphic with winter forms being larger and with darker markings ventrally (Opler and Krizek 1984). Eggs The eggs are cream colored when laid but later turn to orange.

Summary GOTTSBERGER G. & SILBERBAUER-GOTTSBERGER 1.1988. Evolution of flower struc- tures and pollination in neotropical Cassiinae (Caesalpiniaceae) species. - Phyton (Austria) 28 (2): 293-320, 9 figures. - English with German summary. Poricidal anther dehiscence occurs in the majority of the species of the subtribe Cassiinae (Caesalpiniaceae); it implies a constraint for pollination through pollen- collecting female bees able to vibrate flowers. In open pollen-flowers, poricidal anthers also provide protection against pollen depletion by rainfall, as well as provide a means for more efficient and more economic pollination. The ovaries of the Cassiinae as also in the majority of the Fabales are elongated. It is shown that the longer the ovaries the more ovules they contain. The trend in the Cassiinae to approximate the position of the pollen releasing anther openings and the stigma is realized in different ways. In Cassia and many Senna species, at least some of the stamens are so long that the anther openings reach about the same level as the stigma.

Senna (Cassiinae, Leguminosae) est un genre qui compte env. 350 espèces, distribuées principale- ment dans les tropiques et en Amérique tempérée. Les auteurs reconnaissent 23 espèces pour le Paraguay. Une d’entre elles, S. macranthera, est nouvelle pour le Paraguay. La distribution des espèces est discutée. Celles-ci sont largement répandues au Paraguay. Néanmoins, on peut qualifier quatre espèces de peu fréquentes (moins de trois localités) et trois autres de rares. Leur statut de conservation est discuté par les auteurs. Le rôle écologique des espèces de Senna est aussi analysé, celles-ci offrant du pollen aux abeilles et du nectar extrafloral aux fourmis. Les aspects ethnobota- niques et l’utilisation ornementale de ces espèces sont passés en revue par les auteurs. Les clés de détermination publiées dans les révisions récentes du genre étant construites autour des relations systématiques entre les espèces de Senna, les auteurs présentent une nouvelle clé de détermination des espèces de ce genre au Paraguay, basée sur un critère pratique. Des notes discutant des problèmes potentiels de détermination accompagnent cette clé. ABSTRACT MARAZZI, B., R. H. FORTUNATO, P. K. ENDRESS & R. SPICHIGER (2006).

  • Trade Off Between Quantity and Size of Pollen Grains in the Heterandrous Flowers Ofsenna Pendula (Fabaceae)
    Acta Botanica Brasilica - 32(3): 446-453. July-September 2018. doi: 10.1590/0102-33062018abb0132 Trade off between quantity and size of pollen grains in the heterandrous flowers of Senna pendula (Fabaceae) Bruna Karen Pinheiro-Costa1 , José Neiva Mesquita-Neto1,2 , Juliana Ordones Rego3 and Clemens Schlindwein1* Received: April 5, 2018 Accepted: June 22, 2018 . ABSTRACT Heteranthery, the presence of different types of stamens in a flower, may reduce the conflict between pollinators and plants by ensuring the resource for the pollinator without drastically affecting the availability of viable male gametes for fertilization, according to the division-of-labor hypothesis. We investigated whether the poricidal anthers of Senna pendula, a buzz-pollinated heterantherous species, present morphological and physiological differences among pollen grains from the three sets of stamens. We compared quantity, ornamentation, size and fecundity of pollen from long, medium and short stamens. The short feeding stamens produced larger but fewer pollen grains than the long pollinating stamens, which produced smaller pollen grains but in higher quantity. The total pollen volume of pollinating and feeding stamens per flower, however, was the same. The medium stamen produced less- fertile small pollen grains and seems to play no specific role in bee feeding and pollination. Our results indicate differential allocation of pollen for pollinating and feeding stamens mediated by heteranthery. The differences in volume versus quantity of pollen grains fit the division-of-labor
