Garden's Bulletin Part2 13.Indd
Gardens’A Conspectus Bulletin of the Lichens Singapore (Lichenized 61 (2):Fungi) 437-481. of Singapore 2010 437 A Conspectus of the Lichens (Lichenized Fungi) of Singapore H.J.M. SIPMAN Free University of Berlin Botanical Garden and Museum Königin-Luise-Str. 6-8 D-14195 Berlin, Germany Abstract A total of 296 species of lichenized fungi are reported from Singapore and presented in an annotated list with local distributional information. It is based on herbarium and literature study and the fieldwork done in the year 2000. Unidentified samples suggest the figure to be an underestimation, while some of the listed species may have become extinct. Lists of synonyms and collectors are added. Introduction Tropical conurbations, the world’s most fast-growing habitat, have turned out to harbour significant numbers of lichenized fungi.A ptroot and Seaward (1999) and Aptroot and Sipman (2001) report no less than 308 species for the city of Hongkong. Singapore seems particularly suitable for a study of lichens in an urbanized tropical area because it has received regular attention from botanists during its development from primary lowland forest with small settlements ca 1800 to extensive plantations a century later and to the present urbanized area with large built-up high rise areas interspersed by parks and secondary forest. During 1800-1964 scattered lichen collections were made by visiting and resident general botanists, e.g., E. Almquist, O. Beccari, T.R. Chipp, Kiah, A.M. Lemaitre, A.C. Maingay, H. Möller. Their collections have been investigated and published by, e.g., Krempelhuber (1875, 1877), Nylander and Crombie (1884) and Müller Argoviensis (1893). -

The Botanical Exploration of Angola by Germans During the 19Th and 20Th Centuries, with Biographical Sketches and Notes on Collections and Herbaria
Blumea 65, 2020: 126–161 www.ingentaconnect.com/content/nhn/blumea RESEARCH ARTICLE https://doi.org/10.3767/blumea.2020.65.02.06 The botanical exploration of Angola by Germans during the 19th and 20th centuries, with biographical sketches and notes on collections and herbaria E. Figueiredo1, *, G.F. Smith1, S. Dressler 2 Key words Abstract A catalogue of 29 German individuals who were active in the botanical exploration of Angola during the 19th and 20th centuries is presented. One of these is likely of Swiss nationality but with significant links to German Angola settlers in Angola. The catalogue includes information on the places of collecting activity, dates on which locations botanical exploration were visited, the whereabouts of preserved exsiccata, maps with itineraries, and biographical information on the German explorers collectors. Initial botanical exploration in Angola by Germans was linked to efforts to establish and expand Germany’s plant collections colonies in Africa. Later exploration followed after some Germans had settled in the country. However, Angola was never under German control. The most intense period of German collecting activity in this south-tropical African country took place from the early-1870s to 1900. Twenty-four Germans collected plant specimens in Angola for deposition in herbaria in continental Europe, mostly in Germany. Five other naturalists or explorers were active in Angola but collections have not been located under their names or were made by someone else. A further three col- lectors, who are sometimes cited as having collected material in Angola but did not do so, are also briefly discussed. Citation: Figueiredo E, Smith GF, Dressler S. -
GUNNAR DEGELIUS 27 January 1903-22 July 1993
Lichenologist 26(2): 205-207 (1994) OBITUARY GUNNAR DEGELIUS 27 January 1903-22 July 1993 f f With the death of Prof. Gunnar Degelius, who passed away on 22 July 1993, the British Lichen Society has lost one of its most respected Honorary Members, and world lichenology its Grand Old Man. Degelius was born in Uppsala on 27 January 1903, but spent most of his childhood in Mariestad, a small city on Lake Vanern. His father, Bror Nilsson, was a pharmacist and amateur botanist, who very early on introduced his son to botany. Gunnar Nilsson (he changed his name to Degelius in 1932) already had a quite comprehensive collection of phanerogams by the age of six (now in GB), and at 12 he collected his first lichen, Peltigera canina, a specimen still in his herbarium. The family then moved to Goteborg where he met an amateur lichenologist, Captain Carl Stenholm (1862-1939) and also the famous Adolf Hugo Magnusson (1885-1964) both of whom inspired his lichenological 0024-2829/94/020205 + 03 808.00/0 © 1994 The British Lichen Society Downloaded from https://www.cambridge.org/core.

He soon found himself attracted to the circles around the radiant Prof. Rutger Sernander (1866-1944) at the Vaxtbiologiska Institutionen, and it was here in 1935 that he was awarded his doctorate for Das ozeanische Element der Strauch-und Laubflechtenflora von Skandinavien. -

Appendix 1 Vernacular Names
Appendix 1 Vernacular Names The vernacular names listed below have been collected from the literature. Few have phonetic spellings. Spelling is not helped by the difficulties of transcribing unwritten languages into European syllables and Roman script. Some languages have several names for the same species. Further complications arise from the various dialects and corruptions within a language, and use of names borrowed from other languages. Where the people are bilingual the person recording the name may fail to check which language it comes from. For example, in northern Sahel where Arabic is the lingua franca, the recorded names, supposedly Arabic, include a number from local languages. Sometimes the same name may be used for several species. For example, kiri is the Susu name for both Adansonia digitata and Drypetes afzelii. There is nothing unusual about such complications. For example, Grigson (1955) cites 52 English synonyms for the common dandelion (Taraxacum officinale) in the British Isles, and also mentions several examples of the same vernacular name applying to different species. Even Theophrastus in c. 300 BC complained that there were three plants called strykhnos, which were edible, soporific or hallucinogenic (Hort 1916). Languages and history are linked and it is hoped that understanding how lan- guages spread will lead to the discovery of the historical origins of some of the vernacular names for the baobab. The classification followed here is that of Gordon (2005) updated and edited by Blench (2005, personal communication). Alternative family names are shown in square brackets, dialects in parenthesis. Superscript Arabic numbers refer to references to the vernacular names; Roman numbers refer to further information in Section 4. -
