Penalized likelihood analysis based on new nuclear ribosomal DNA (rDNA) internal transcribed spacer (ITS) sequences indicates that the most relictual lineages occupy high elevation Andean habitats that did not exist until some 10 my later. This result is contrary to the expecta- tion that younger habitats should be occupied by phylogenetically younger lineages. The results are interpreted with respect to the devel- opment of aridity in lowland habitats during the Miocene and Pliocene, which presumably extinguished the lowland relatives of the high elevation taxa or, in eVect, forced them upwards in search of adequate moisture. As the more northerly lineages were being displaced upward, others diversiWed in the mediterranean-type climate area of central Chile, giving rise to additional high elevation taxa again, at an early date, as well as lowland taxa. Some species of Chaetanthera from lowland central Chile appear as the phylogenetically youngest taxa, suggesting secondary adaptation to lowland aridity. At the same time, at least two high elevation species, Chaetanthera peruviana and Chaetanthera perpusilla, appear to have been derived recently from a lower elevation ancestor, while some middle to low elevation taxa seem to have evolved recently out of a high elevation complex. The results suggest that the younger high elevation habitats have served as both “cradle” and “museum” for Chaetanthera lineages. © 2006 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

E-mail [email protected] Received: 20 November 2015 Returned for revision: 22 December 2015 Accepted: 8 January 2016 Published electronically: 20 April 2016 Background and Aims The plant family Asteraceae (Compositae) exhibits remarkable morphological variation in the styles of its members. Lack of studies on the styles of the sister families to Asteraceae, Goodeniaceae and Calyceraceae, obscures our understanding of the origin and evolution of this reproductive feature in these groups. The aim of this work was to perform a comparative study of style morphology and to discuss the relevance of im- portant features in the evolution of Asteraceae and its sister families. Methods The histochemistry, venation and general morphology of the styles of members of Goodeniaceae, Calyceraceae and early branching lineages of Asteraceae were analysed and put in a phylogenetic framework to dis- cuss the relevance of style features in the evolution of these families. Key Results The location of lipophilic substances allowed differentiation of receptive from non-receptive style papillae, and the style venation in Goodeniaceae and Calyceraceae proved to be distinctive.

Los resultados arrojan la presencia de 28 géneros, 192 especies y otros 22 taxones infraespecíficos en Chile. Siete de estos géneros, 77 especies y 12 taxones infraespecíficos tienen carácter de endémicos para el país. La revisión arroja dos adiciones y dos sustracciones a la flora de Chile. Adicionalmente, 47 de los taxones han sido corregidos en cuanto a su distribución geográfica por región en Chile.

This item is printed on demand - Print on Demand Neuware - The Mutisieae (Asteraceae) are a diverse basal lineage. A polymorphous paraphyletic group of about 50 South American species within the Mutisieae are characterized by having foliaceous outer involucral bracts and winged inner bracts. This publication presents the results of the systematic and taxonomic study of these taxa. The research focuses on newly assessed morphological and anatomical variation of characters taken from habit, involucral bracts, and achenes, combined with palynological and genetic (nr DNA) information. The genus Chaetanthera (30 species) is extensively revised and the genus Oriastrum (18 species) is reinstated. Character variation is considered in the light of form, function and habitat. Primary (cold) and secondary (aridity) adaptations to environmental conditions and trends towards insular syndromes are discussed. The biogeography of the species is explored. Three case studies of species complexes within Chaetanthera demonstrate the occurrence of polymorphism as evidence of active speciation and hybridisation events.
