A floristic and vegeta- tion study was carried out in the grassland formations at Morro São Pedro, Porto Alegre municipality, Rio Grande do Sul State, a granitic elevation area, so far poorly surveyed, that cradles important natural vegetation remnants of the region. After the study, which lasted from April 2005 to March 2009, we found 497 angiosperm species, distributed in four main grassland formation types: dry grassland, rocky grassland, humid grassland and wetlands. Among the species list three species are noteworthy: Alstroemeria albescens, a new species for the science, Lepuropethalon spathulatum, a new record for Southern Brazil, and Thrasyopsis juergensii, a new record for the Pampa biome. Based on our results and on support from other papers we concluded that ca. 65% of the grassland species present in the granitic hills of the region belong to seven main botanical families (Astera- ceae, Poaceae, Fabaceae, Cyperaceae, Rubiaceae, Verbenaceae and Apiaceae). The species belonging to these families are also determining in the vegetation phytophysiognomical and structural composition, so that cespitous grasses predominate in the landscape, shaping a continuous gramineous layer. The grasslands at the granitic hills of the municipality have an insular present distribution, isolated in patches at hilltops, due to the presence of forests in the slopes. They show a high number of species that can be found in higher numbers in dry areas than in humid areas, and there is a gap in works concerning the characterization of humid grasslands and wetland formations inserted at hilltops. Despite the significant plant diversity of these grasslands, their representation in conservation units at the municipality is virtually inexistent. Key words: plant diversity, floristic, Pampa, grasslands vegetation. RESUMO: (Florística e caracterização da vegetação campestre em um morro granítico no sul do Brasil). Foi realizado um estudo florístico e vegetacional nos campos do morro São Pedro, Porto Alegre, Rio Grande do Sul, uma área de elevação granítica, ainda pouco estudada, que conserva importantes remanescentes de vegetação natural da região. Após a realização do estudo, com duração de abril de 2005 a março de 2009, obteve-se a catalogação de 497 espécies de angiospermas nativas distribuídas em quatro tipos de formações campestres principais: campo seco, campo rupestre, campo úmido e banhado. Dentre a lista de espécies, destacam-se Alstroemeria albescens, uma espécie nova para a ciência, Lepuropethalon spathulatum, uma nova citação para a Região Sul do Brasil, e Thrasyopsis juergensii, uma nova citação para o bioma Pampa. Com base nos resultados obtidos e o suporte de outros trabalhos realizados, conclui-se que cerca de 65% das espécies campestres de morros graníticos da região pertencem a sete famílias botânicas principais (Asteraceae, Poaceae, Fabaceae, Cyperaceae, Rubiaceae, Verbenaceae e Apiaceae). As espécies destas famílias também são determinantes na composição fitofisionômica e estrutural da vegetação, predominando na paisagem as gramíneas cespitosas, formando um estrato contínuo de tapete graminoso. Os campos dos morros graníticos do município têm distribuição atual em forma insular, isolado em manchas nos topos destas elevações devido à presença de florestas nas encostas. Apresentam elevado número de espécies que se concentram em maior número nas áreas secas do que nas áreas úmidas, havendo uma lacuna de trabalhos de caracterização de formações de campos úmidos e banhados de topos de morro. Apesar da significativa diversidade vegetal destes campos, sua representatividade em unidades de conservação é praticamente nula no município.

ISSN 2153 733X TWO NEW COMBINATIONS IN BACCHARIS (ASTERACEAE: ASTEREAE) GUSTAVO HEIDEN Departamento de Botânica, Instituto de Biociências Universidade de São Paulo Rua do Matão, Travessa 14, 321 São Paulo, SP 05508-090, Brazil [email protected] ABSTRACT The newly proposed genus Lanugothamnus Deble is considered a synonym of Baccharis , since phylogenetic data strongly support the monophyly of Baccharis sensu lato and reject the current circumscription of Baccharis subg. Tarchonanthoides , on which the circumscription of the new genus is based. Two new combinations are proposed: Baccharis anabelae (Deble) G. Heiden and Baccharis pluricapitulata (Deble) G. Heiden, based on taxa originally described in Lanugothamnus . KEY WORDS: Baccharidinae, Compositae, new combinations, nomenclature Baccharis L. comprises between 338 and 400 species occurring from the USA to southern Argentina and Chile (Bremer 1994; Müller 2006) and is characterized by the usually tufted indumentum of the leaves and stems and the common occurrence of dioecy (Müller 2006). Heering (1904) published the first subgeneric classification of Baccharis and included the subgenera Baccharis , Molina (Pers.) Heering, Pteronioides Heering, Stephananthus Heering, and Tarchonanthoides Heering. The genus has been subject of recent alterations in its circumscription. Hellwig (1993) proposed segregate Neomolina F.H. Hellw. and Pingraea Cass. from Baccharis and suggested that the species he included in the informal group “Lanugobaccharis” should be considered equivalent to a genus as well. On the other hand, broader circumscriptions of Baccharis were proposed by Nesom (1988) and Müller (2006) with the merging of monoecious ( Baccharidastrum Cabrera), gynodioecious ( Heterothalamus Less.), and polygamous taxa ( Baccharidiopsis G.M.

  • Evolution of Grasses and Grasslands in South America
    TAXON 24(I): 53-66. FEBRUARY 1975 EVOLUTION OF GRASSESAND GRASSLANDS IN SOUTH AMERICA Arturo Burkart* Summary This is a discussion of the South American grasslands from the standpoint of their evolution and composition. The tribes are considered in relation to climate, and grasses are classified as mega-, meso-, or microthermic with respect to their temperature requirements. The principal grassland regions are three: (A) Tropical and Subtropical, which include the Llanos of the Orinoco River system and the Campos Cerrados of Central Brazil; (B) Temperate, including the Pampa of Argentina and the Campos of Uruguay; and (C) Cold Country Grasslands, which are the Steppes of the high Andes and Patagonia, and also the Pairamos of Colombia and Ecuador. Some attention is given to the floristic composition of each of these regions. The subject of endemism is dealt with, as well as the problem of disjunct distribution. Included is a discussion of changes brought about by agriculture and ranching in historic times, and what may be expected in the future. INTRODUCTION The Gramineae, with about 6oo genera and some 6ooo species, is one of the largest families of flowering plants. It is a truly cosmopolitan group, and remarkable because of the capacity of its members to form the domi- nant vegetation over large areas of the earth's surface. The terms steppes, savannas, prairies, pusztas, campos or pampas all refer to vegetation types in which grasses are dominant. To quote Ronald Good (1953; p. 53) "Pride of place must certainly go to the Gramineae . ., the great family ... Not only do the grasses reach to the furthest land in the north and to the borders of Antarctica in the south, but their degree of distribution is usually particularly complete and continuous.

  • Heterothalamus Wagenitzii (Compositae, Astereae), a New Species from Brazil
    Haussknechtia 9: 135-139; 2003 F r a n k H. H el l w ig Heterothalamus wagenitzii (Compositae, Astereae), a new species from Brazil The genus Heterothalamus LESS, comprises three or four species distributed in South America. Three species, Heterothalamus alienus (SPR.) O. Kuntze , H. psiadioides LESS. (Barroso 1976) and an hitherto unknown third taxon described here, are endemic to Southeast Brazil, Uruguay and parts of Argentina. The fourth species, Heterothalamus boliviensis WEDDELL, is a common plant of high eleva­ tions in the central Andes. Its systematic position within subtribe Baccharidinae O. Hoffm. is still uncertain (Hellwig 1996), though it is certainly related to the other three species of Heterothalamus. Heterothalamus is associated to Baccharis L. differing from this genus by the pres­ ence of sterile or female marginal florets in the male capitula of the two species, which were described first, while the female plants have always purely female capitula (Lessing 1831). Since this polygamic-dioecious condition was treated as character generalis, the dioecious species Heterothalamus boliviensis , as well as some other taxa originally described for Heterothalamus , has been transferred to Baccharis , where all dioecious taxa of New World Astereae have been placed. Besides the sexual differentiation there are further differential characters which allow for the distinction of the two dioecious species from those of Baccharis and allied genera: - the uniseriate pappus with few bristles, caducous in most species of Hetero­ thalamus , - the presence of hardened receptacular bracts in the female capitula, - the short but regularly ligulate shape of the female or neuter flowers, and the short, bifid style which is always overtopped by the corolla.
