Radiation of this group occurred in all biomes of tropical America and was accompanied by extensive phenotypic and ecological diversification. Here we performed phylogenetic analyses using DNA sequences from three plastid loci to reconstruct the evolutionary history of Gesnerioideae and to investigate its relationship with other lineages of Gesneriaceae and Lamiales. Our molecular data confirm the inclusion of the South Pacific Coronanthereae and the Old World (OW) monotypic genus Titanotrichum in Gesnerioideae and the sister-group relationship of this subfamily to the rest of the OW Gesneriaceae. Calceolariaceae and the NW genera Peltanthera and Sanango appeared successively sister to Gesneriaceae, whereas Cubitanthus, which has been previously assigned to Gesneriaceae, is shown to be related to Linderniaceae. Based on molecular dating and biogeographical reconstruction analyses, we suggest that ancestors of Gesneriaceae originated in South America during the Late Cretaceous.

Description and Phylogenetic Position of a New Species of Nematanthus (Gesneriaceae) from Bahia, Brazil
Description and phylogenetic position of a new species of Nematanthus (Gesneriaceae) from Bahia, Brazil Alain Chautems & Mathieu Perret Abstract CHAUTEMS, A. & M. PERRET (2017). Description and phylogenetic position of a new species of Nematanthus (Gesneriaceae) from Bahia, Brazil. Candollea 72 : 351-359. In English, English abstract. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.15553/c2017v722a13 Nematanthus exsertus Chautems, a new species of Gesneriaceae from the state of Bahia in Brazil, is described. It is easily distinguished from other Nematanthus Schrad. species by its pendent resupinate flowers with funnel-shaped and laterally compressed corolla combined with striking exserted stamens and style. According to the phylogenetic analyses based on nuclear and plastid DNA sequences, this species belongs to a clade including the morphologically distinct Nematanthus monanthos (Vell.) Chautems and four other species with a similar flower morphology but lacking exserted stamen and style. Field photographs accompany the description. The new species is known from one locality in the municipality of Wenceslau Guimarães in the southern part of Bahia state within the “região cacaueira” [cocoa producing area]. The new species is assigned a preliminary assessment of “Vulnerable” using the IUCN Red List Categories and Criteria.

Lepidorrhachis Mooreana (H
Palm Conservation – Palm Specialist Group Lepidorrhachis mooreana (H. Wendl. & Drude) O. F. Cook Status: Not Evaluated in IUCN Red List. Vulnerable according to Dowe in Johnson (1996). Preliminary evaluation based on IUCN 2001 criteria: Endangered (EN B1a,bv) Common name Little Mountain Palm. Natural range Lepidorrhachis mooreana is restricted to the summits of Mt. Gower (875 m) and Mt. Lidgbird (777 m) on the remote Lord Howe Island. It occurs only above 750 m in dwarf mossy forest that dominates the summit plateau of Mt. Gower and the narrow summit ridge of Mt. Lidgbird. This forest is home to numerous remarkable endemic species including the pumpkin tree (Negria rhabdothamnoides), an arborescent member of the Gesneriaceae, and Dracophyllum fitzgeraldii (Ericaceae). It is also the primary nesting locality of the providence petrel (Pterodroma solandri) and is a stronghold for the woodhen (Tricholimnas sylvestris), an endemic member of the rail family that was recently rescued from the brink of extinction. However, less that 0.5 km2 of Lord Howe’s total surface area of 12 km2 is found above 750 m. The total area of suitable habitat available to Lepidorrhachis is thus extremely limited. Recognition characteristics Lepidorrhachis is very easily distinguished from the two other endemic palm genera on Lord Howe Island, Howea and Hedyscepe. It is a short solitary palm with a stem that rarely exceeds 2 m in height. It has stiff, arching leaves with short, deeply split leaf sheaths that do not form a distinct crownshaft. The sheaths are also covered with buff indumentum. Its bushy inflorescences are born below the leaves and are unisexual, both male and female inflorescences occurring on the same plant.

A New Formal Classification of Gesneriaceae Is Proposed
Selbyana 31(2): 68–94. 2013. ANEW FORMAL CLASSIFICATION OF GESNERIACEAE ANTON WEBER* Department of Structural and Functional Botany, Faculty of Biodiversity, University of Vienna, A-1030 Vienna, Austria. Email: [email protected] JOHN L. CLARK Department of Biological Sciences, The University of Alabama, Tuscaloosa, AL 35487, USA. MICHAEL MO¨ LLER Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh, Edinburgh EH3 5LR, Scotland, U.K. ABSTRACT. A new formal classification of Gesneriaceae is proposed. It is the first detailed and overall classification of the family that is essentially based on molecular phylogenetic studies. Three subfamilies are recognized: Sanangoideae (monospecific with Sanango racemosum), Gesnerioideae and Didymocarpoideae. As to recent molecular data, Sanango/Sanangoideae (New World) is sister to Gesnerioideae + Didymocarpoideae. Its inclusion in the Gesneriaceae amends the traditional concept of the family and makes the family distinctly older. Subfam. Gesnerioideae (New World, if not stated otherwise with the tribes) is subdivided into five tribes: Titanotricheae (monospecific, East Asia), Napeantheae (monogeneric), Beslerieae (with two subtribes: Besleriinae and Anetanthinae), Coronanthereae (with three subtribes: Coronantherinae, Mitrariinae and Negriinae; southern hemisphere), and Gesnerieae [with five subtribes: Gesneriinae, Gloxiniinae, Columneinae (5the traditional Episcieae), Sphaerorrhizinae (5the traditional Sphaerorhizeae, monogeneric), and Ligeriinae (5the traditional Sinningieae)].

Bremer, P. Cantino, J. Chau, J. L. Clark, B. Drew, P. Garnock- Jones, S. Grose (Heydler), R. Harley, H.-D. Ihlenfeldt, B. Li, L. Lohmann, S. Mathews, L. McDade, K. Müller, E. Norman, N. O’Leary, B. Oxelman, J. Reveal, R. Scotland, J. Smith, D. Tank, E. Tripp, S. Wagstaff, E. Wallander, A. Weber, A. Wolfe, A. Wortley, N. Young, M. Zjhra, and many others [estimated 25 families, 1041 genera, and ca. 21,878 species in Lamiales] The goal of this project is to produce a working infraordinal classification of the Lamiales to genus with information on distribution and species richness. All recognized taxa will be clades; adherence to Linnaean ranks is optional. Synonymy is very incomplete (comprehensive synonymy is not a goal of the project, but could be incorporated). Although I anticipate producing a publishable version of this classification at a future date, my near- term goal is to produce a web-accessible version, which will be available to the public and which will be updated regularly through input from systematists familiar with taxa within the Lamiales. For further information on the project and to provide information for future versions, please contact R. Olmstead via email at [email protected], or by regular mail at: Department of Biology, Box 355325, University of Washington, Seattle WA 98195, USA.

Conservation Issues for the Vascular Flora of Lord Howe Island
490 Cunninghamia 8(4): 2004 Auld & Hutton, Plant conservation on Lord Howe Island Conservation issues for the vascular flora of Lord Howe Island Tony D. Auld1 and Ian Hutton2 1Biodiversity and Conservation Science Section, Department of Environment and Conservation (NSW) PO Box 1967 Hurstville NSW 2220, AUSTRALIA Email: [email protected] 2PO Box 157 Lord Howe Island, NSW 2898 AUSTRALIA Abstract: The flora of the Lord Howe Island Group (31°30’S, 159°05’E) comprises a unique mix of elements of Australian, New Zealand and New Caledonian floras. It is significant for its high degree of endemism and for its structural and biological (leaves, flowers, fruit) role in supporting a diverse array of fauna. Conservation of this flora is dependant upon: reducing current habitat degradation (mostly the result of exotic weeds); minimising any future impacts, in particular the effects of climate change on the unique cloud forests of the southern mountains and the continued introduction and spread of weeds and the pathogen Phytophthora cinnamomi. We provide a description of the nature of the major threats to the flora and suggest an area-based scheme, focussed on the relative conservation significance of remaining vegetation, as a mechanism for developing priorities for threat mitigation activities. While a number of threat control works are in place, eg. weed control, some re-emphasis is needed. In addition, some new initiatives are required including: reducing the rate of introductions of new exotics; a system to remove potential environmental weeds from the settlement area; phytosanitary guidelines; pathogen quarantine measures; search and removal of environmental weeds from remote areas; and ex situ initiatives for plant species restricted to the cloud forests of the southern mountains.
