An Alphabetical List of Bromeliad Binomials
AN ALPHABETICAL LIST OF BROMELIAD BINOMIALS Compiled by HARRY E. LUTHER The Marie Selby Botanical Gardens Sarasota, Florida, USA ELEVENTH EDITION Published by the Bromeliad Society International June 2008 ii INTRODUCTION TO EDITION XI This list is presented as a spelling guide for validly published taxa accepted at the Bromeliad Identification Center. The list contains the following information: 1) Genus number (the left-hand number) based on the systematic sequence published in the Smith & Downs monograph: Bromeliaceae (Flora Neotropica, number 14, parts 1-3; 1974, 1977, 1979). Whole numbers are as published in the monograph. 2) Species number (the second number) according to its systematic position in the monograph. Note: Taxa not included in the monograph or that have been reclassified have been assigned numbers to reflect their systematic position within the Smith & Downs framework (e.g., taxon 14.1 is related to taxon 14). The utility of this method is that one may assume for example that Tillandsia comarapaensis (150.2) is related to T. didisticha (150) and therefore may have certain horticultural qualities in common with that species. 3) Genus and species names follow the respective numbers. 4) Subspecific taxa (subspecies, varieties, forms) names are indented below the species names. Note: Variety "a" (the type variety) is not listed unless it contains a form (see Aechmea caudata ). Similarly, the type form is not listed. 5) Author name follows the specific and subspecific names. These names are included for the convenience of specialist users of the list. This list does not contain publication data or synonymy, as it is not our intent for it to be a technical nomenclatural guide. -

Pollen Morphology of Proteaceae Native to Argentina: a New Dichotomus Key for Their Identification
Rev. Mus. Argentino Cienc. Nat., n.s. 19(1): 25-37, 2017 ISSN 1514-5158 (impresa) ISSN 1853-0400 (en línea) Pollen morphology of Proteaceae native to Argentina: a new dichotomus key for their identification Damián Andrés FERNÁNDEZ Sección Paleopalinología, Museo Argentino de Ciencias Naturales “Bernardino Rivadavia”, Av. A. Gallardo 470, C1405DJR Buenos Aires, Argentina. E-mail: [email protected]. Abstract: A dichotomous key for the identification of eight proteaceous species, native to Argentina, based on pollen morphology is presented. These species are: Embothrium coccineum, Gevuina avellana, Lomatia den- tata, L. ferruginea, L. hirsuta, Orites myrtoidea, Roupala meisneri and R. montana. The pollen morphology was analyzed with both, light and electron scanning microscopes. The morphological characters selected for species/ genera recognition are: ornamentation, pore number, equatorial diameter, the ratio of sexine/nexine thickness, and equatorial diameter/pore diameter ratio. Key words: Proteaceae, Argentina, palynology, dichotomous key. Resumen: Morfología polínica de las Proteaceae nativas de Argentina: una nueva clave dicotómi- ca para su identificación.

Rates of Molecular Evolution and Diversification in Plants: Chloroplast
Duchene and Bromham BMC Evolutionary Biology 2013, 13:65 http://www.biomedcentral.com/1471-2148/13/65 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Rates of molecular evolution and diversification in plants: chloroplast substitution rates correlate with species-richness in the Proteaceae David Duchene* and Lindell Bromham Abstract Background: Many factors have been identified as correlates of the rate of molecular evolution, such as body size and generation length. Analysis of many molecular phylogenies has also revealed correlations between substitution rates and clade size, suggesting a link between rates of molecular evolution and the process of diversification. However, it is not known whether this relationship applies to all lineages and all sequences. Here, in order to investigate how widespread this phenomenon is, we investigate patterns of substitution in chloroplast genomes of the diverse angiosperm family Proteaceae. We used DNA sequences from six chloroplast genes (6278bp alignment with 62 taxa) to test for a correlation between diversification and the rate of substitutions. Results: Using phylogenetically-independent sister pairs, we show that species-rich lineages of Proteaceae tend to have significantly higher chloroplast substitution rates, for both synonymous and non-synonymous substitutions. Conclusions: We show that the rate of molecular evolution in chloroplast genomes is correlated with net diversification rates in this large plant family. We discuss the possible causes of this relationship, including molecular evolution driving diversification, speciation increasing the rate of substitutions, or a third factor causing an indirect link between molecular and diversification rates. The link between the synonymous substitution rate and clade size is consistent with a role for the mutation rate of chloroplasts driving the speed of reproductive isolation. -

Kelloff edited by Phillip DaSilva and V.A. Funk Centre for the Study of Biological Diversity University of Guyana Faculty of Natural Science Turkeyen Campus Georgetown, Guyana 2003 ABSTRACT Carol L. Kelloff. Smithsonian Institution. The use of biodiversity data in developing Kaieteur National Park, Guyana for ecotourism and conservation. Contributions to the Study of Biological Diversity, volume 1: 46 pages (including 8 plates).- Under the auspices of the National Protected Areas System (NPAS), Guyana is developing policies to incorporate conservation and management of its tropcial forest. Kaieteur National Park was selected as the first area under this program. Information on the plants (and animals) is vital in order to make informed conservation or management policy for this unique ecosystem of the Potaro Plateau. Understanding and identifying important ecosystems and the locations of endemic plant taxa will assist Guyana in formulating a comprehensive management and conservation policy that can be incorporated into the development of Kaieteur National Park.

John A. Stevenson's "Foreign Plant Diseases" (U.S. Dept. Agr. unnumbered publication, 198 pp., 1926) has served as a reliable guide. Information on the occurrence of tree diseases in the United States has been obtained from the "Index of Plant Dis- eases in the United States" by Freeman Weiss and Muriel J. O'Brien (U.S. Dept. Agr. Plant Dis. Survey Spec. Pub. 1, Parts I-V, 1263 pp., 1950-53). The author wishes to express liis appreciation to Dean George A. Garratt for providing free access to the library of the School of Forestry, Yale University. The Latin names and authorities for the trees were verified by Elbert L. Little, Jr., who also checked the common names and, where possible, supplied additional ones. His invaluable assistance is grate- fully acknowledged. To Bertha Mohr special thanks are due for her assistance, enabling the author to complete a task so arduous that no one else has attempted it. For sale by the Superintendent of Documents, iTs.
