Thirteen genera and 64 species are recognized as Desmodium and its relatives relatives in Malesia. Their distribution patterns 訂 'e diverse. Of 64 species recognized in this this study 56 訂 'e native to Malesia and 訂 e divided by their distribution patterns into the following following four groups: Malesia (including 8 species) , Asia (29 spp よAustralia (11 spp よ and and Asia-Australia (8 spp.) groups. All species of the genera native to Jawa ,New Guinea and and the Philippines are discussed. Each 訂 ea has almost equal numbers of native species , 31 ,32 , and 29 ,respectively. This fact suggest insufficient collections in New Guinea and the the Philippines.

Since information on the genetic diversity of these species is deficient, the creation of baseline data is an important means for the development of more sustainable and cost-efficient conservation approaches which eventually result in more comprehensive ex situ germplasm collections. The species analyzed are native to tropical and subtropical Asia, Australia, and Oceania and possess a potential as forage and/or medicinal plants. Moderate levels of inter-accession diversity represented by 37.5% and 33.3% of polymorphic fragments (P%) and average Jaccard’s similarity coefficients (JSCs) of 0.60 and 0.64 were found in D. heterocarpon and T. triquetrum, respectively, while moderate to high levels were detected in D. triangulare (P% = 52.9 and JSC = 0.61) and D. gangeticum (P% = 34.5 and JSC = 0.49). Mantel tests failed to reveal a correlation between geographic and genetic distances.

  • Additions to Paleotropical Bruchidius Associated with Desmodieae (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae: Bruchinae)
    Genus Vol. 25(3): 425-432 Wrocław, 30 IX 2014 Additions to paleotropical Bruchidius associated with Desmodieae (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae: Bruchinae) ALEX DELOBEL Muséum national d’Histoire naturelle, 45 rue Buffon, 75005 Paris, e-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT. Three species of Bruchinae are reported for the first time from Vietnam as feeding in seeds of members of leguminous tribe Desmodieae (Fabaceae - Faboideae). Two of them are new to science and described in genus Bruchidius: B. hoangi and B. madaguiensis. A redescription of B. minutissimus (Motschulsky) is also provided. Key words: entomology, taxonomy, Coleoptera, Bruchinae, new species, Desmodieae, Alhagi, Dendrolobium, Desmodium. InTroDuCTIon Desmodieae are a leguminous tribe of Faboideae (or Papilionoideae) with nume- rous members in tropical regions; it is composed of 27 genera, of which Desmodium and Lespedeza are the largest. About 190 Desmodieae species are present in Vietnam according to PHAM-HOÀNG HÔ (2002). recent contributions by DELOBEL (2010a, b) for Asian Desmodieae and CHAN et al. (2011) for world Desmodium have unveiled an unsuspected diversity of Bruchinae associated with this large group of plants. I report here on three Bruchidius species reared from pod samples of Dendrolobium lanceolatum, Desmodium gangeticum and Tadehagi triquetrum that were collected in Vietnam. This brings the number of seed beetles species known to be associated with Desmodieae in Vietnam to sixteen, and to nineteen (or twenty) species for Asia as a whole. Techniques used for sample collection and rearing were similar to those described earlier (DELOBEL & DELOBEL 2003). Leguminous host plants were identified using the Flora of Vietnam (PHAM-HOÀNG HÔ 2002), and botanical names were updated according to ILDIS (2014); I am greatly indebted to Dr.

The inhibitory effect of leaf distillates was compared with the Antifungal activity standard fluconazole. Quantitative phytochemical analyses were performed using standard Fabaceae procedures. The ethanol leaf extracts of P. pulchellum showed maximum activity against Phyllodium pulchellum Aspergillus niger, followed by Colletotrichum falcatum, Penicillium notatum and Phytochemicals Rhizoctonia solani. The ethanolic extract showed higher level of phenol (88.68±2.081 mg/g), flavonoid (71.33±4.172 mg/g) tannin (30.23±3.025 mg/g) and than the other extracts which having secondary metabolites. These findings provide scientific evidence to support the traditional use of Phyllodium pulchellum and also indicate that the leaf of this species are a promising potential for the development of quantitative phytochemical and antifungal agent.

Desmodium species are well explored in the treatment of neurological imbalances by traditional Indian medicinal system. The recent pharmacological studies recognized the multi-directional therapeutic significance like anti-leishmanial, anti-inflammatory and cardio-protective activity. It is also proved for detoxification and blood purification properties which might be attributed to its immunomodulatory activity. Phytochemical evaluation revealed that the plants have alkaloids, pterocarpans, phospholipids,

  • Taxonomic Studies on the Genus Phyllodium Desv. (Leguminosae) in Thailand
    Tropical Natural History 15(1):23-40, April 2015 2015 by Chulalongkorn University Taxonomic Studies on the Genus Phyllodium Desv. (Leguminosae) in Thailand * WITSANU SAISORN AND PRANOM CHANTARANOTHAI Applied Taxonomic Research Center, Department of Biology, Faculty of Science, Khon Kaen University, Khon Kaen 40002, THAILAND * Corresponding Author: Pranom Chantaranothai ([email protected]) Received: 16 February 2015; Accepted: 9 March 2015 Abstract.– The taxonomy of genus Phyllodium in Thailand was studied. The results showed that six species are enumerated. Morphological descriptions and photographs, key to species, distribution and some ecological data are given. Moreover, both pollen morphological and leaf epidermal characters of three and five species respectively are presented. KEY WORDS: Taxonomy, Phyllodium, leaf epidermis, pollen morphology, Thailand the Malay Peninsula and Ohashi (2004) for INTRODUCTION the whole region. Moreover, the genus is revised for the flora of Asia and Pacific Phyllodium is a small genus of the tribe region (Ohashi, 1973) and Australia Desmodieae (Leguminosae-Papilionoideae) (Pedley, 1999). Six species of Phyllodium with eight species that is distributed in were listed in “Thai Plant Names” by The India, southeastern and eastern Asia and Forest Herbarium, Royal Forest Department with a few species in northern Australia. (2014). However, there is no information on The genus name consists of two Greek the morphology, distribution, ecology, leaf words: phyllon refers to leaf and -odion epidermis and pollen morphology of the refers to both likeness and smallness. Both Thai species of Phyllodium. Accordingly, two words refer to the primary bracts of the this study aims to increase such information inflorescences that are like small leaves and in turn contribute to the advancement of (Lewis et al., 2005).

  • Biodiversity Summary: Cape York, Queensland
    Biodiversity Summary for NRM Regions Species List What is the summary for and where does it come from? This list has been produced by the Department of Sustainability, Environment, Water, Population and Communities (SEWPC) for the Natural Resource Management Spatial Information System. The list was produced using the AustralianAustralian Natural Natural Heritage Heritage Assessment Assessment Tool Tool (ANHAT), which analyses data from a range of plant and animal surveys and collections from across Australia to automatically generate a report for each NRM region. Data sources (Appendix 2) include national and state herbaria, museums, state governments, CSIRO, Birds Australia and a range of surveys conducted by or for DEWHA. For each family of plant and animal covered by ANHAT (Appendix 1), this document gives the number of species in the country and how many of them are found in the region. It also identifies species listed as Vulnerable, Critically Endangered, Endangered or Conservation Dependent under the EPBC Act. A biodiversity summary for this region is also available. For more information please see: www.environment.gov.au/heritage/anhat/index.html Limitations • ANHAT currently contains information on the distribution of over 30,000 Australian taxa. This includes all mammals, birds, reptiles, frogs and fish, 137 families of vascular plants (over 15,000 species) and a range of invertebrate groups. Groups notnot yet yet covered covered in inANHAT ANHAT are notnot included included in in the the list. list. • The data used come from authoritative sources, but they are not perfect. All species names have been confirmed as valid species names, but it is not possible to confirm all species locations.
