La lista anotada se elaboró en base a las 23.515 colecciones botánicas con coordenadas geográficas. El número total de especies fue de 3.981, en 1.360 géneros y 211 familias. Debido al escaso número de colecciones en las áreas, el inventario es todavía desigual ya que el número de especies encontrado en Madidi fue 2.741, en Apolobamba 570 y en Pilón-Lajas solamente 231. Las áreas alrededor de los parques contienen un total de 2.034 especies. Las familias más diversas fueron Fabaceae con 231 especies (incluyendo Caesalpiniaceae y Mimosaceae), Rubiaceae con 208 y Asteraceae con 165. La mayoría de las familias más diversas coinciden con otras listas anotadas del Neotrópico. Los géneros más diversos fueron Miconia (71 especies), Solanum (58) y Elaphoglossum (56). Sorprendentemente ningún género de Orchidaceae estuvo entre los 15 más diversos. Se estima que el área de Madidi contiene 250 familias, más de 2.000 géneros y probablemente más de 8.000 especies. Se necesita un mínimo de 85.000 colectas adicionales para tener un inventario completo. Palabras clave: Bolivia, Madidi, Apolobamba, Pilón Lajas, Lista anotada, Fitodiversidad. Abstract We here present the first checklist of the larger Madidi region. The area includes the three National Parks Madidi, Apolobamba, and Pilón-Lajas plus a significant area surrounding the parks. The list was constructed from 23,515 collections with coordinates. The total number of species was 3,981 contained in 1,360 genera and 211 families. The inventory is still uneven and the number of species recorded for the National Parks were 2,741 for the Madidi Park, 570 for the Apolobamba, and only 231 for the Pilón-Lajas. Areas surrounding the parks housed a total of 2,034 species. We found the most diverse families to be Fabaceae with 231 species (incl. Caesalpiniaceae and Mimosaceae), followed by Rubiaceae with 208, and Asteraceae with 165. Most of the diverse families coincide with other Neotropical checklists. The most diverse genera were Miconia (71 species), Solanum (58), and Elaphoglossum (56). It was surprising that no Orchidaceae genus made it into the 15 most 70 Lista anotada de las plantas vasculares registradas en la región de Madidi specious genera. We estimate the area to contain 250 families, more than 2,000 genera and probably more than 8,000 species. An additional 85,000 collections are probably needed to claim a complete inventory.

    Features and Conservation of the Brazilian Pantanal Wetland

    Wetlands Ecology and Management 12: 547–552, 2004. 547 # 2004 Kluwer Academic Publishers. Printed in the Netherlands. Features and conservation of the Brazilian Pantanal wetland Arnildo Pott* and Vali Joana Pott Embrapa, Caixa postal 154, Campo Grande, MS, 79002-970 Brazil; *Author for correspondence (e-mail: [email protected]) Accepted in revised form 18 July 2003 Key words: Aquatic vegetation, Ecology, Floodable grassland, Neotropical wetland, Savanna, Vegetation dynamics Abstract The Pantanal is a 140,000 km2 sedimentary floodplain in western Brazil and one of the largest wetlands in the world. The main landscapes and phytophysiognomies, according to flood origin, are briefly described and some of the characteristic plant species are mentioned: (a) river flood (1–5 m) on clayey eutrophic soils with gallery forests, pioneer forests and scrub, Tabebuia and Copernicia parks, seasonal swamps, grasslands and oxbow lakes; and (b) rain flood (10–80 cm) mainly on dystrophic sandy soils (72% of the total area) with savanna (‘‘cerrado’’) grasslands and woodlands, with or without ponds. Regulating factors of the vegetation such as wet-and-dry cycle and management are considered. Dynamics of the vegetation, in particular the aquatic types, are shortly depicted. The role of grazing for conservation is discussed, and we suggest that 200 years of cattle ranching apparently did not cause major changes in the vegetation, except turning tall grass into short swards, as the domestic herd found a nearly empty niche. However, severe threats to the flora and fauna of the Pantanal originate outside the floodplain. Siltation of the Taquari river is pointed out as the worst environmental problem, changing the hydrology (wet-and-dry to wet), fauna and flora, e.g.

  • CATALOGUE of the GRASSES of CUBA by A. S. Hitchcock

    CATALOGUE of the GRASSES of CUBA by A. S. Hitchcock

    CATALOGUE OF THE GRASSES OF CUBA By A. S. Hitchcock. INTRODUCTION. The following list of Cuban grasses is based primarily upon the collections at the Estaci6n Central Agron6mica de Cuba, situated at Santiago de las Vegas, a suburb of Habana. The herbarium includes the collections made by the members of the staff, particularly Mr. C. F. Baker, formerly head of the department of botany, and also the Sauvalle Herbarium deposited by the Habana Academy of Sciences, These specimens were examined by the writer during a short stay upon the island in the spring of 1906, and were later kindly loaned by the station authorities for a more critical study at Washington. The Sauvalle Herbarium contains a fairly complete set of the grasses col- lected by Charles Wright, the most important collection thus far obtained from Cuba. In addition to the collections at the Cuba Experiment Station, the National Herbarium furnished important material for study, including collections made by A. H. Curtiss, W. Palmer and J. H. Riley, A. Taylor (from the Isle of Pines), S. M. Tracy, Brother Leon (De la Salle College, Habana), and the writer. The earlier collections of Wright were sent to Grisebach for study. These were reported upon by Grisebach in his work entitled "Cata- logus Plant arum Cubensium," published in 1866, though preliminary reports appeared earlier in the two parts of Plantae Wrightianae. * During the spring of 1907 I had the opportunity of examining the grasses in the herbarium of Grisebach in Gottingen.6 In the present article I have, with few exceptions, accounted for the grasses listed by Grisebach in his catalogue of Cuban plants, and have appended a list of these with references to the pages in the body of this article upon which the species are considered.

Vegetation succession in abandoned plantations Publicado on-line: diciembre 2017 in buffer zones may take different paths that reach climax ecosystems in more or less time depending on the conditions of initial succession, thus enhancing or hindering biological connectivity and ecosystem services. This study documents the dominance of tree ferns in the initial stages of vegetation succession on abandoned pineapple plantations on the Andean foothills around Manu National Park, Peru, and discusses the role it may have on ecosystem restoration. Four years after abandonment, tree fern gametophytes grow under the shade of pineapple plants and melastomes. After 6-10 years of succession, the vegetation is dominated by a tree fern community composed of at least eight species, of which the most common are by far Cyathea delgadii and Cyathea microdonta. Cyathea microdonta functions as a short-lived pioneer, reaching its peak of live stem density in 6 to10 years and dying off in older plots.

Galianthe, with 39 species and Galianthe subgen. Ebelia, with 11 species. The diagnostic features of the genus are: usually erect habit with xylopodium, distylous flowers arranged in lax thyrsoid inflorescences, bifid stigmas, 2-carpellate and longitudinally dehiscent fruits, with dehiscent valves or indehiscent mericarps, plump seeds or complanate with a wing-like strophiole, and pollen with double reticulum, rarely with a simple reticulum. This study focused on two species that were originally described under Diodia due to the occurrence of fruits indehiscent mericarps: Diodia palustris and D. spicata. In the present study, classical taxonomy is combined with molecular analyses. As a result, we propose that both Diodia species belong to Galianthe subgen. Ebelia. The molecular position within Galianthe, based on ITS and ETS sequences, has been supported by the following morphological Submitted 10 June 2017 characters: thyrsoid, spiciform or cymoidal inflorescences, bifid stigmas, pollen grains Accepted 19 October 2017 with a double reticulum, and indehiscent mericarps.

    SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION Contributions from the United States National Herbarium Volume 49: 1-152 Acanthaceae of Bolivia by Dieter C. Wasshausen and J. R. I. Wood Department of Botany National Museum of Natural History Washington, DC 2004 ABSTRACT Wasshausen, Dieter C., and J. R. I. Wood. Acanthaceae of Bolivia. Contributions from the United States National Herbarium, volume 49: 152 pages (including 42 figures).—Recent fieldwork in Bolivia has resulted in the recognition of 180 species in 36 genera of Acanthaceae. The purpose of this taxonomic treatment is to discuss, in alphabetical order, all the known Bolivian species of the family, and as such, this work is a ready reference for botanists, so that they may identify their collections of acanthaceous plants or use the keys for detecting further undescribed species. Except for brief discussions to indicate possible relationships of the novelties to allied species, no phylogenetic inferences within the family have been made. A full list of synonyms for the Bolivian species and those of adjoining countries has been prepared. Keys, species descriptions, and specimen distribution data is provided. When available, illustrations, ecological and conservation data have been included. Two new species of Dicliptera, D. palmariensis and D. purpurascens are described and illustrated, and Lepidagathis alverezia is a new combination. The following 26 names are lectotypified: Ancylogyne peruviana, Aphelandra albadenia, Aphelandra simplex, Arrhostoxylum haenkeanum, Beloperone denudata, Beloperone matthewsii, Beleperone nodicaulis, Chaetochlamys ciliata, Chaetochlamys macrosiphon, Chaetothylax boliviensis, Chaetothylax tocantinus, Dicliptera pohliana, Dicliptera seriacea, Dicliptera squarrosa, Geissomeria tetragona, Justicia diamantina, Justicia dubiosa, Justicia yurimaguensis, Leptostachya parviflora, Mendoncia meyeniana, Orthotactus strobilacea, Pachystachys lutea, Porphyrocoma lanceolata, Ruellia glischrocalyx, Ruellia haenkeana, and Stephanophysum ruizianum.
