  • Hans Walter Lack & Thomas Raus Hildemar Scholz
    Fl. Medit. 22: 233-244 doi: 10.7320/FlMedit22.233 Version of Record published online on 28 December 2012 Hans Walter Lack & Thomas Raus Hildemar Scholz (1928 – 2012) Hildemar Scholz, aged 84, passed away on 5 June 2012 as a consequence of a bad fall he had suffered at home a few weeks earlier. He was a world authority on grasses, the adventive flora of Europe, and rust fungi from central Europe. From 1964 until his retire- ment in 1993 he was a member of staff of the Botanic Garden and Botanical Museum Berlin-Dahlem, rising from scientific collaborator to one of the directors at this institution. Hildemar was a born plant-collector active all over Europe, in North and West Africa with a special interest in grasses and the rust fungi parasitizing them. Born on 27 May 1928 in Berlin into a family of protestant clergymen Hildemar Scholz remained both in language and manners very much a Berliner, in the true and best sense of the word, and never ever considered leaving his home town, even during the many diffi- cult years this city encountered in the last century. Having belatedly finished his school training because of the Second World War in 1947, he tried to get enrolled at Berlin University, subsequently renamed Humboldt University, in the Soviet sector of the city, but was rejected – probably because his father was a clergyman. Hildemar had more success at the newly founded Free University in the American sector of Berlin, where he got admit- ted in 1949 and chose biology as his subject.

Avda. Joan XXIII s/n, 08028 Barcelona, Spain Abstract. The precise generic delimitation of Aliella and Phagnalon, and their closest relatives within the Gnaphalieae are discussed in this review. Among the main results obtained, we have found that the genera Aliella and Phagnalon are nested within the “Relhania clade” and Anisothrix, Athrixia and Pentatrichia are their closest relatives. Macowania is also part of the “Relhania clade”, whereas the subtribal affinities of Philyrophyllum lie within the “crown radiation clade”. The monophyly of Aliella and Phagnalon is not supported statistically. In addition, Aliella appears to be paraphylethic in most of the analyses performed. The resulting phylogeny suggests an African origin for the ancestor of Aliella and Phagnalon and identifies three main clades within Phagnalon that constitute the following natural groups on a geographic basis: (1) the Irano-Turanian clade; (2) the Mediterranean-Macaronesian clade; and (3) the Yemen-Ethiopian Correspondence/Reprint request: Dr.
