  • Canary Islands) by Per Sunding Botanical Garden, University of Oslo, Norway
    Notes on the Flora of La Graciosa (Canary Islands) By Per Sunding Botanical Garden, University of Oslo, Norway RESUMEN Notas sobre la flora de La Graciosa (Islas Canarias): Enume- ración de 80 especies de fanerógamas, anotadas y colectadas du- rante una breve visita en dicha isla. Se considera citas florísticas poco conocidas y se presenta algunos datos sobre la vegetación en general. During field work in the eastern part of the Canary Is- lands archipelago in February-March 1969 the author made an one-day excursion to the island of Graciosa, north of Lanzarote. The flora of this 27km2 of mainly desert seems to be ~nlyscarcely known. There may well be material de- posited in various herbclria from the island, but what have bcen brought to common knowledge through publications have, so far, been only a few short plant lists or brief des- criptions of the vegetation. The first list of species from Graciosa was given by Berthelot (1836), who, however, included many doubtful cases and questionmarks. Further contributions to the flora of the island were given by Christ (1888), Bolle (1892, 1893), Pitard & Proust (1908), and Bannerman (1922). In the flora of Pitard & Proust were listed 35 species from Graciosa. The vegetation of the island is - where the landscape .S not completely devoid of plants - marked by open plant conimunities of the classes Ammophiletea and Salicornietea fruticosae (cp. Esteve Chueca 1968, and Sunding, in press). Some of the more common plant communities are the Cy- perus kalli - Euphorbia paralias comrnunity on unstable sand (the sand dune forming Traganum moquini community) and the Salsola vermiculata community on more stabilizcd sand or rocky ground.

This is probably the most well known location on Tenerife as it is where most people see their first Blue Chaffinches and we were not to be disappointed. Also at this location we saw the only Great Spotted Woodpecker of the tour plus a few Canaries, a Tenerife Kinglet and a few African Blue Tits. After departing from Las Lajas we continued climbing and entered the Las Cañadas National Park which is a spectacular drive through volcanic scenery. On the drive we encountered quite a few endemic plants including Pinus canariensis and Spartocytisus supranubius that were common and easily recognized and Echium wildpretii, Pterocephalus lasiospermus, Descurainia bourgaeana and Argyranthemum teneriffae which were rather unimpressive as they were not yet flowering but we were compensated by the fabulous views across the ancient caldera.

  • Stefan Cherrug
    Stefan Cherrug www.cherrug.se Introduction I made a weeklong trip mainly for birding with my two children Alexander 20 and Nina 16. It was my third trip to the archipelago since Gran Canaria 1999, Tenerife 2011, and the fifth trip to Macaronesia after Madeira 2005 (two trips) and Kap Verde 2010. We stayed at the good hotel Geranios Suites and Spa in Caleta de Fuste just S of the airport near the sea on the middle of the east coast on Fuerteventura. It was a rather good point with reasonable easy access to most localities on the island. We travelled with Apollo and also rented a car through that agency. A little new for us was that we had to wait for bus transportation to the rental company Orlando nearby. The main targets for the trip were to see Hourbara Bustard, Canary Islands Stonechat and the endemic subspecies of the island – dacotiae of Common Kestrel, insularum of Stone-curlew, polatzeki of Lesser Short-toed Lark, degener of African Blue Tit, and harterti of Common Linnet. I had no intention to get gracilirostris of Barn Owl or canariensis of Long-eared Owl, and did not make any efforts due to lack of localities. I have in former trips seen ssp. baroli of Little Shearwater, insularum of Common Buzzard, berthelotii of Berthelot's Pipit, orbitalis of Spectacled Warbler, koenigi of Southern Grey Shrike and amantum of Trumpeter Finch, so these endemics would be the last for me to see. Great emphases were also put on photographing, me for birds and nature, my daughter and son for more touristic objects.

  • A New Aulacidea Species (Hymenoptera, Cynipidae
    Graellsia, 60(2): 175-184 (2004) ANEWAULACIDEA SPECIES (HYMENOPTERA, CYNIPIDAE) FROM CABO DE GATA NATURE PARK (SPAIN) INDUCING GALLS ON LAUNAEA ARBORESCENS, INCLUDING DESCRIPTION OF ITS TERMINAL INSTAR LARVA J. L. Nieves-Aldrey* ABSTRACT A new species of Aulacidea Ashmead, A. martae n. sp. (Hymenoptera, Cynipidae) is described from Cabo de Gata Nature Park (South-Eastern Spain). The new species indu- ces galls on stems of Launaea arborescens (Asteraceae) and represents the first cynipid species recorded from this plant, growing in desertic areas of south Spain. The terminal- instar larva and the gall are also described. A. martae is closely related to A. laurae Nieves-Aldrey, a species inducing galls in achenes of Podospermum laciniatum (Asteraceae). Characters separating adults, larvae and galls of both species are given and life-cycle data of the new species are provided. Key words: Aylacini, Aulacidea, herb gall-wasps, new species, Launaea, galls, Cabo de Gata, Spain. RESUMEN Una nueva especie de Aulacidea (Hymenoptera, Cynipidae) del parque natural de Cabo de Gata (España) que induce agallas en Launaea arborescens, incluyendo la descripción de su último estadio larval Se describe una nueva especie de Aulacidea Ashmead: A. martae sp. n. (Hymenop- tera, del Parque Natural de Cabo de Gata (Sureste de España). La nueva especie induce agallas en tallos de Launaea arborescens (Asteraceae) y es la primera especie de cinípi- do citada en esa planta, que crece en áreas desérticas del sureste español. Se describe también la larva madura y la agalla. A. martae es cercana a A. laurae Nieves-Aldrey, una especie que forma agallas en los aquenios de Podospermum laciniatum (Asteraceae).

E-mail: [email protected]. Abstract Faberia is a perennial herbaceous member of Asteraceae that is mainly distributed in central and southwestern China. Nuclear (ITS) and plastid (psbA–trnH, rbcL, matK, and trnL–F) sequences representing five Faberia species were analyzed with maximum parsimony, maximum likelihood, and Bayesian inference, all of which strongly supported the monophyly of Faberia. Faberia nanchuanensis, F. cavaleriei, and F. faberi from central China form a well-supported clade. Additionally, F. sinensis and F. thibetica from southwestern China also form a well-supported clade. Incongruence between nuclear and plastid fragments was interpreted as hybridization or limited character evolution in the plastid DNA. Faberia may have descended from hybridization between Lactucinae and Crepidinae. Besides phylogenetic results, Faberia nanchuanensis is recorded for the first time from Hunan Province, and F.
