Funaria Japonica, Syn. Nov. of Funaria Serrata Tadashi Suzuki1 Hattoria 6: 27－29, 2015 Notes on Funaria (Funariaceae, Bryopsida): Funaria japonica, syn. nov. of Funaria serrata Tadashi Suzuki1 1The Hattori Botanical Laboratory, Shimada Branch, 6480-3 Takasago-cho, Shimada-shi, Shizuoka- ken 427-0054, Japan Abstract. Funaria japonica Broth. is proposed as a new synonym of Funaria serrata Brid. Introduction Funaria japonica was described from Japan (Kyushu, Nagasaki-ken) by Brotherus (1899) and reported also by Noguchi (1988). I discovered that Funaria japonica has a close similarity with Funaria serrata Brid. Examination of North American specimens of Funaria serrata supported my conclusion that F. japonica is identical to F. serrata. Description, specimens examined, distribution, and illustration of F. serrata are included. 1. Funaria serrata Brid., Spec. Musc. 3: 70 (1817). Fig. 1. Funaria japonica Broth., Hedwigia 38: 216 (1899), syn. nov. Plants small, stem 2.8－4.5 mm long, erect, simple. Leaves crispate to contorted when dry, erect to spreading when moist, elliptic to oblong-lanceolate, 2.5－2.9×0.9－1.0 mm, acute or short-acuminate; margins entire, serrate above; costa subpercurrent; median laminal cells oblong-hexagonal, 41－67 μm long, 21－29 μm wide, somewhat longer and narrower at the margins forming a border, basal cells rhombic-hexagonal to rectangular, 90－130 μm long, 25－35 μm wide. Setae 10.0－12.5 mm long, flexuose, reddish-brown; capsule inclined, mostly pyriform, 1.4－1.7 mm long, with a large apophysis, mouth oblique; stomata immersed; annulus absent; opercula convex, slightly mucronate, ca. 0.3 mm long; peristome double, exostome teeth well developed, oblique, linear-lanceolate, 280－320 μm long, 75－90 μm wide at base, moderately trabeculate, vertically papillose-striate, endostome segments opposite the teeth, as long as the teeth, papillose with a basal membrane, cilia absent; spores 25－30 μm in diam., papillose.

  • Antibacterial Activity of Bryophyte (Funaria Hygrometrica) on Some Throat Isolates
    International Journal of Health and Pharmaceutical Research ISSN 2045-4673 Vol. 4 No. 1 2018 www.iiardpub.org Antibacterial Activity of Bryophyte (Funaria hygrometrica) on some throat Isolates Akani, N. P. & Barika P. N. Department of Microbiology, Rivers State University, Nkpolu-Oroworukwo, Port Harcourt P.M.B. 5080 Rivers State, Nigeria E. R. Amakoromo Department of Microbiology, University of Port Harcourt Choba P.M.B 5323 Abstract An investigation was carried out to check the antibacterial activity of the extract of a Bryophyte, Funaria hygrometrica on some throat isolates and compared with the standard antibiotics using standard methods. The genera isolated were Corynebacterium sp., Lactobacillus sp. and Staphylococcus sp. Result showed a significant difference (p≤0.05) in the efficacy of F. hygrometrica extract and the antibiotics on the test organisms. The zones of inhibition in diameter of the test organisms ranged between 12.50±2.08mm (F. hygrometrica extract) and 33.50±0.71mm (Cefotaxamine); 11.75±2.3608mm (F. hygrometrica extract) and 25.50±0.71mm (Cefotaxamine) and 0.00±0.00mm (Tetracycline) and 29.50±0.71mm (Cefotaxamine) for Lactobacillus sp, Staphylococcus sp. and Corynebacterium sp. respectively while the control showed no zone of inhibition (0.00±0.00mm). The test organisms were sensitive to the antibiotics except Corynebacterium being resistant to Tetracycline. The minimal inhibitory concentration of plant extract and antibiotics showed a significant difference (p≤0.05) on the test organisms and ranged between 0.65±0.21 mg/ml (Cefotaxamine) and 4.25±0.35 mg/ml (Penicillin G); 0.04±0.01 mg/ml (Penicillin G) and 2.50±0.00 mg/ml ((F.

  • Distribution and Phylogenetic Significance of the 71-Kb Inversion

This inversion of 57% of the genome is the largest rearrangement detected in the plastid genomes of plants to date. Although initially considered diagnostic of Physcomitrella patens, the inversion was recently shown to characterize the plastid genome of two species from related genera within Funariaceae, but was lacking in another member of Funariidae. The phylogenetic significance of the inversion has remained ambiguous. † Methods Exemplars of all families included in Funariidae were surveyed. DNA sequences spanning the inversion break ends were amplified, using primers that anneal to genes on either side of the putative end points of the inver- sion. Primer combinations were designed to yield a product for either the inverted or the non-inverted architecture.

  • 131 Nematode Fauna of Costa Rican Protected Areas
    NEMATODE FAUNA OF COSTA RICAN PROTECTED AREAS Alejandro Esquivel Universidad Nacional de Heredia (U.N.A), Apdo postal 86-3000 Heredia, Costa Rica. ABSTRACT Esquivel, A. 2003. Nematode fauna of Costa Rican protected areas. Nematropica 33:131-145. The Instituto Nacional de Biodiversidad (INBio), in collaboration with the Nematology Laborato- ry at Universidad Nacional (U.N.A) of Costa Rica, conducted a nematode inventory of Costa Rican wild lands. Hundreds of samples were randomly collected for nematode analyses and thousands of specimens were permanently mounted on Cobb slides. A total of 74 families, 231 genera and 105 spe- cies has been detected so far. Dorylaimida was the dominant order both in number of specimens and genera, while the least dominant orders were Aphelenchida, Monhysterida and Desmocolecida. Some nematodes were widely distributed across all microhabitats, others appeared be restricted to a specific microhabitat or ecosystem. Basic and advanced reports regarding nematode inventory in Cos- ta Rican protected areas can be requested through the web page of INBio (http://atta.inbio.ac.cr). Key words: biodiversity, conservation areas, inventory, nematodes, survey. RESUMEN Esquivel, A. 2003. Nematofauna de las áreas protegidas de Costa Rica. Nematropica 33:131-145.

The plant Funaria itself have ecological significance especially nutrient recycling and its role in establishment of community in ecosystem. It possesses characteristic smell and habitat of micro flora due to unique phytochemicals present in it. Hence preliminary phytochemical analysis confirms the presence of alkaloids, flavonoids, glycosides and terpenoids as an important phyto constituent.

  • Fungi, Bryophytes Before I Worked on This Project, I Had No Idea How to Apply GIS to Basic Ecological Concepts
    Galbreath Wildlands Preserve Galbreath Special Status Species Assessment - Fungi, Bryophytes Before I worked on this project, I had no idea how to apply GIS to basic ecological concepts. – Christoph Schopfer, Geography Major Project Summary A team of students and Center staff mapped potential habitat for 110 special status plants and animals on the Galbreath Wildlands Preserve. We identified special status species with potential to occur in the Galbreath Preserve using existing agency databases and publications. These included fungi, bryophytes, plants, invertebrates, amphibians, reptiles, birds and mammals. For each species, we collected biological information, undertook GIS-based habitat suitability analysis, and assessed the likelihood of occurrence within preserve boundaries. The project created professional experience for Biology and Geography undergraduates and graduate students who worked on an interdisciplinary team to develop assessment techniques and methods. See Methods (PDF) and Species List (PDF) for additional information.

Assessments were conducted as planning exercise and do not constitute evidence of occurrence. SSU Center

ФЕДОСОВ2 Abstract Afoninia dahurica from the Transbaikal region of the East Siberia in Russia is described as a new species accommodated in a new genus of Funariaceae, based on molecular phylogenetic evidence from nrITS, trnL-F and psbA-trnH, that highlights the combination of strongly reduced double peristome with a well developed annulus of inflated revoluble cells. The exostome teeth are tapered to the base and attached to basal membrane with a plate that is less than one third of the cell of the endostome to which it adheres. The plant is known from few nearby localities in a xeric area of Dahuria, growing on soil near cliffs. Резюме Afoninia dahurica, новый род и вид из Funariaceae, описан из Забайкалья по результатам молекулярно-филогенетического анализа (nrITS, trnL-F and psbA-trnH) и на основании уникальной комбинации морфологических признаков (сильно редуцированного двойного перистома и отворачивающегося колечка, образованного вздутыми клетками). Для этого вида характерны суживающиеся книзу зубцы экзостома, которые в месте прикрепления к базальной мембране эндостома в три раза уже тех клеток, к которым они крепятся. Вид известен из немногочисленных местонахождений в засушливых районах Забайкалья; он растет на почве в основании скал.
