Williams, over a period of many years. This most welcome assistance made possible both the field work and the research necessary to complete this work. The Museum and the prin- cipal investigator are most appreciative of this financial aid. COMPREHENSIVE INDEX TO THE FLORA OF GUATEMALA INTRODUCTION This comprehensive index covers the 12 parts of Volume 24 of Fieldiana: Botany which consists of 5,697 pages with many plates. The index does not cover the orchids, mosses or ferns of the flora since these are or will be separately indexed. The numbers following an entry refer first to the part number of the flora and second to the page or pages where the entry occurs. The index is intended to include all accepted names (in roman), all synonyms (in italics), and all common names of plants (in roman). Specific names of plants occasionally will appear in roman and in italics; the italic entry indicates a synonym while the roman entry indicates that the name appears in a discussion. Hyphenated words are treated in alphabetical order as one word. Names of persons, when considered potentially useful to the reader, have been indexed. Vernacular names, wherever available, have been used in the text and are indexed here. Languages are those of the informant and, if known, the dialect is given when names were supplied by indigenous peoples. Most dialects are Mayan in origin and the names usually transcribed by persons speaking English, Spanish or German. Consequently, the same Mayan name may have been transcribed differently. For example, the common names bisib and t 'isib apply to the same plant. Indian languages of Guatemala were all un- written and only in recent years have attempts been made to reduce them to writing. This work has been done by professional linguists. Botanical collectors have not been versed in the phonetic signs used by linguists, except in rare cases. Vernacular names often duplicate generic names and the two names do not necessarily refer to the same plant. The letters of the Spanish alphabet, ch, 11, and n are not given in separately at the end of c, 1, and n as they would be a Spanish index. 2 FIELDIANA: BOTANY, VOLUME 24 This volume will serve quite well as a check list of scientific names of plants for a much wider geographical area than Guatemala and Belize since a very large number of the plants in our floristic area occur over a much greater geographical range.

    Characterization of Some Common Members of the Family Malvaceae S.S

    Indian Journal of Plant Sciences ISSN: 2319–3824(Online) An Open Access, Online International Journal Available at http://www.cibtech.org/jps.htm 2014 Vol. 3 (3) July-September, pp.79-86/Naskar and Mandal Research Article CHARACTERIZATION OF SOME COMMON MEMBERS OF THE FAMILY MALVACEAE S.S. ON THE BASIS OF MORPHOLOGY OF SELECTIVE ATTRIBUTES: EPICALYX, STAMINAL TUBE, STIGMATIC HEAD AND TRICHOME *Saikat Naskar and Rabindranath Mandal Department of Botany, Barasat Govt. College, Barasat, Kolkata- 700124, West Bengal, India *Author for Correspondence: [email protected] ABSTRACT Epicalyx, staminal tube, stigma and trichome morphological characters have been used to characterize some common members of Malvaceae s.s. These characters have been analyzed following a recent molecular phylogenetic classification of Malvaceae s.s. Stigmatic character is effective for segregation of the tribe Gossypieae from other tribes. But precise distinction of other two studied tribes, viz. Hibisceae and Malveae on the basis of this character proved to be insufficient. Absence of epicalyx in Malachra has indicated an independent evolutionary event within Hibisceae. Distinct H-shaped trichome of Malvastrum has pointed out its isolated position within Malveae. Staminal tube morphological similarities of Abutilon and Sida have suggested their closeness. A key to the genera has been provided for identification purpose. Keywords: Malvaceae s.s., Epicalyx, Staminal Tube, Stigma, Trichome INTRODUCTION Epicalyx and monadelphous stamens are considered as key characters of the family Malvaceae s.s. Epicalyx was recognized as an important character for taxonomic value by several authors (Fryxell, 1988; Esteves, 2000) since its presence or absence was employed to determine phylogenetic interpretation within the tribes of Malvaceae s.s.

ABSTRACT Background. Mexico is one of the most floristically rich countries in the world. Despite significant contributions made on the understanding of its unique flora, the knowledge on its diversity, geographic distribution and human uses, is still largely fragmented. Unfortunately, deforestation is heavily impacting this country and native tree species are under threat. The loss of trees has a direct impact on vital ecosystem services, affecting the natural capital of Mexico and people's livelihoods. Given the importance of trees in Mexico for many aspects of human well-being, it is critical to have a more complete understanding of their diversity, distribution, traditional uses and conservation status. We aimed to produce the most comprehensive database and catalogue on native trees of Mexico by filling those gaps, to support their in situ and ex situ conservation, promote their sustainable use, and inform reforestation and livelihoods programmes. Methods. A database with all the tree species reported for Mexico was prepared by compiling information from herbaria and reviewing the available floras. Species names were reconciled and various specialised sources were used to extract additional species information, i.e.

Weedin SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION PRESS City of Washington 1981 ABSTRACT Robinson, Harold, A. Michael Powell, Robert M. King, and James F. Weedin. Chromosome Numbers in Compositae, XII: Heliantheae. Smithsonian Contri- butions to Botany, number 52, 28 pages, 3 tables, 1981.-Chromosome reports are provided for 145 populations, including first reports for 33 species and three genera, Garcilassa, Riencourtia, and Helianthopsis. Chromosome numbers are arranged according to Robinson’s recently broadened concept of the Heliantheae, with citations for 212 of the ca. 265 genera and 32 of the 35 subtribes. Diverse elements, including the Ambrosieae, typical Heliantheae, most Helenieae, the Tegeteae, and genera such as Arnica from the Senecioneae, are seen to share a specialized cytological history involving polyploid ancestry. The authors disagree with one another regarding the point at which such polyploidy occurred and on whether subtribes lacking higher numbers, such as the Galinsoginae, share the polyploid ancestry. Numerous examples of aneuploid decrease, secondary polyploidy, and some secondary aneuploid decreases are cited. The Marshalliinae are considered remote from other subtribes and close to the Inuleae. Evidence from related tribes favors an ultimate base of X = 10 for the Heliantheae and at least the subfamily As teroideae.

Borhidi Instituto de Biología, Universidad de Pécs, H-7624 Pécs, Ifjúság útja 6, Hungría E-mail: [email protected] (Received 13 June, 2017; Accepted 31 July, 2017) The last synthetic treatment of the Arachnothryx genus was published by D. Lorence in the Flora Mesoamericana (Vol. 4, part 2, 2012) based on a polyphyletic concept including several genera of different tribes and leaving the results of the molecular studies out of consideration. The analytic key offered by the author is based firstly on the highly complex and varied indumentum, and not on the more stable structural elements of the species, therefore the determination of the different species and species-groups is problematic. The present treatment is based on the original strictly monophyletic concept of Planchon (1849) pointed out and detailed by Steyermark, including into the study all (103) the valid species existing in México, Mesoamerica and South America. The new analytic key comprises all the existing Mexican and Mesoamerican species (81). Key words: Arachnothryx, Flora Mesoamericana, Guettardeae, Rubiaceae HISTORIA BREVE DE LOS ESTUDIOS DEL GÉNERO ARACHNOTHRYX PLANCH. Como fue expuesto por Borhidi y Fernández (1981: 309) el concepto del género Rondeletia L. ha sido notablemente extendido por De Candolle (Prodr. 4: 406. 1830) y Bentham (Pl. Hartw. 1841). Planchon fue el primero, quien reco- noció diferencias importantes en las flores de distintas especies de Rondeletia existentes en Centro América, que permiten su separación en géneros nuevos: Rogiera y Arachnothryx.

Hernández, Mario Sousa and Helga Ochoterena Herbario Nacional de México, Departamento de Botánica, Instituto de Biología, Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México. Apartado postal 70- 233, 04510 México D. F., Mexico. [email protected] Abstract. Trees or tree-like plants are defined here broadly as perennial, self-supporting plants with a total height of at least 5 m (without ascending leaves or inflorescences), and with one or several erect stems with a diameter of at least 10 cm. We continue our compilation of an updated list of all native Mexican tree species with the dicotyledonous families Asteraceae (36 species, 39% endemic), Leguminosae with its 3 subfamilies (449 species, 41% endemic), and Rubiaceae (134 species, 24% endemic). The tallest tree species reach 20 m in the Asteraceae, 70 m in the Leguminosae, and also 70 m in the Rubiaceae. The species-richest genus is Lonchocarpus with 67 tree species in Mexico. Three legume genera are endemic to Mexico (Conzattia, Hesperothamnus, and Heteroflorum). The appendix lists all species, including their original publication, references of taxonomic revisions, existence of subspecies or varieties, maximum height in Mexico, and endemism status. Key words: biodiversity, flora, tree definition. Resumen. Las plantas arbóreas o arborescentes se definen aquí en un sentido amplio como plantas perennes que se pueden sostener por sí solas, con una altura total de al menos 5 m (sin considerar hojas o inflorescencias ascendentes) y con uno o varios tallos erectos de un diámetro de al menos 10 cm.
