The study of herbarium specimens, especially from Brazil and other South American countries, including historical collections from many European herbaria, resulted in the recognition of numerous new geographical records. Morphological characters of diagnostic importance are discussed for the genus and species, for which aspects of the inflo- rescence, corolla, gynoecium and indument are important for identification. In Neotropical Staurogyne, the corolla may have two basic forms: 1) short, infundibular, and white (often with markings on the limb and throat), and 2) long, tubular, and yellow or red. Species with the latter form of the corolla are restricted to southeastern Brazil. Eight synonymizations and one lectotyfication are proposed, while a key to species, descriptions, illustrations and comments on taxonomy, phenology and geographical distribution are provided. Keywords: Brazilian flora, description, morphology, synonymization, lectotypification Resumo Vinte e oito espécies de Staurogyne são reconhecidas para a região neotropical, onde o gênero se distribuí desde o México até o sul do Brasil. O estudo de espécimes de herbário, especialmente do Brasil e de outros países sul-americanos, incluindo coleções históricas de muitos herbários europeus, resultou no reconhecimento de inúmeros novos registros geográficos. Caracteres morfológicos de importância diagnóstica são discutidos para o gênero e para as espécies, para os quais os aspec- tos da inflorescência, corola, gineceu e indumento são importantes para a identificação. Nas espécies neotropicais, a corola pode apresentar duas formas básicas: 1) uma curta, infundibuliforme e branca (frequentemente com máculas no limbo e na garganta), e 2) longa, tubular e amarela ou vermelha. Espécies com a última forma da corola são restritas a região sudeste do Brasil. Oito sinonimizações e uma lectotipificação são propostas e são apresentadas chave para as espécies, descrições,

Two genera (Nelsonia and Staurogyne) and 29 species are considered native to Thailand, including new species Staurogyne kaengkrachanense.

In Thailand, Craib this subfamily (Choopan, 2013), the list of taxa in (1912) recorded three genera (Nelsonia R.Br., Nelsonia (1 species), Ophiorrhiziphyllon (1 species), Ophiorrhiziphyllon Kurz and Staurogyne Wall.), and Staurogyne (26 species) has been revised with one species in each.

  • Towards Resolving Lamiales Relationships
    Schäferhoff et al. BMC Evolutionary Biology 2010, 10:352 http://www.biomedcentral.com/1471-2148/10/352 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Towards resolving Lamiales relationships: insights from rapidly evolving chloroplast sequences Bastian Schäferhoff1*, Andreas Fleischmann2, Eberhard Fischer3, Dirk C Albach4, Thomas Borsch5, Günther Heubl2, Kai F Müller1 Abstract Background: In the large angiosperm order Lamiales, a diverse array of highly specialized life strategies such as carnivory, parasitism, epiphytism, and desiccation tolerance occur, and some lineages possess drastically accelerated DNA substitutional rates or miniaturized genomes. However, understanding the evolution of these phenomena in the order, and clarifying borders of and relationships among lamialean families, has been hindered by largely unresolved trees in the past. Results: Our analysis of the rapidly evolving trnK/matK, trnL-F and rps16 chloroplast regions enabled us to infer more precise phylogenetic hypotheses for the Lamiales. Relationships among the nine first-branching families in the Lamiales tree are now resolved with very strong support. Subsequent to Plocospermataceae, a clade consisting of Carlemanniaceae plus Oleaceae branches, followed by Tetrachondraceae and a newly inferred clade composed of Gesneriaceae plus Calceolariaceae, which is also supported by morphological characters. Plantaginaceae (incl. Gratioleae) and Scrophulariaceae are well separated in the backbone grade; Lamiaceae and Verbenaceae appear in distant clades, while the recently described Linderniaceae are confirmed to be monophyletic and in an isolated position. Conclusions: Confidence about deep nodes of the Lamiales tree is an important step towards understanding the evolutionary diversification of a major clade of flowering plants. The degree of resolution obtained here now provides a first opportunity to discuss the evolution of morphological and biochemical traits in Lamiales.

A nova combinação, Staurogyne nitida, é aqui proposta com base no nome anterior. Keywords: Nelsonioideae, Staurogyne carvalhoi, synonym, nomenclature Introduction Staurogyne Wallich (1831: 80) (Nelsonioideae, Acanthaceae) comprises 145 species distributed in Asia, Africa and the Americas (Champluvier 1991, Daniel & McDade 2014). In the Neotropics the genus is represented by 28 species (Braz & Monteiro 2017), most of which have been described in the genus Ebermaiera Nees von Esenbeck (1832: 75), which was treated as a synonym of Staurogyne by Kuntze (1891). Staurogyne carvalhoi Profice (2000: 203) was described based on specimens collected in the Brazilian states of Bahia and Espírito Santo. While examining historical collections of Acanthaceae from Brazil, we discovered that the type of Ebermaiera nitida Moore (1879: 812) (Fig.

De esta forma se establece una relación muy fuerte entre am- bos, planta-polinizador, y cuanto mayor es la especialización, tal como sucede en un gran número de especies de orquídeas y cactáceas entre otros grupos, ésta se torna más vulnerable ante cambios ambientales naturales o producidos por el hombre.

Evolutionary relationships in Thunbergioideae and other early branching lineages of Acanthaceae. Acanthaceae as circumscribed today consists of the three subfamilies Acan- thoideae (Acanthaceae sensu stricto), Thunbergioideae and Nelsonioideae, plus the genus Avicennia. Due to the morphological dissimilarities of Thun- bergioideae and Nelsonioideae, the delimitation of the family has been con- troversial. The mangrove genus Avicennia was only recently associated with Acanthaceae for the first time, based on molecular evidence, but without morphological support. In this thesis, phylogenetic analyses of nuclear and chloroplast DNA sequences were used to test the monophyly and exact posi- tions of Thunbergioideae and Nelsonioideae, and to infer detailed phyloge- netic relationships within these subfamilies and among major lineages of Acanthaceae. Floral structure and development were comparatively studied in Avicennia and other Acanthaceae using scanning electron microscopy and stereo microscopy. Phylogenetic analyses strongly support monophyly of Thunbergioideae and Nelsonioideae, and place the latter clade with strong support as sister to all other plants treated as Acanthaceae.

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.
