Download date: 06. Oct. 2021 THE LANDSCAPE OF LEXICOGRAPHY THE LANDSCAPE Alina Villalva & Geoffrey Williams (eds.) THE LANDSCAPE OF LEXICOGRAPHY Alina Villalva & Geoffrey Williams (eds.) Williams & Geoffrey Villalva Alina This book consists of a series of papers that look at three different aspects of the landscape as seen in dictionaries from across Europe. Multilingual diachronic case studies into lexicographical descriptions of fora, landscape features and colours concentrate on three supposedly simple words: daisies (Bellis perenis L.), hills and the colour red. The work is part of the ongoing LandLex initiative, originally developed as part of the COST ENeL - European Network for e-Lexicography - action. The group brings together researchers in lexicography and lexicology from across Europe and is dedicated to studying multilingual and diachronic issues in language. It aims to valorise the wealth of European language diversity as found in dictionaries by developing and testing new digital annotation tools and a THE LANDSCAPE LANDSCAPE THE OF LEXICOGRAPHY historical morphological dictionary prototype.

COST (European Cooperation in Science and Technology) is a funding agency for research and innovation networks. Our Actions help connect research initiatives across Europe and enable scientists to grow their ideas by sharing them with their peers. This boosts their research, career and innovation. www.cost.eu The LandLex research initiative came about through joint activities with the COST ENeL project. We greatly appreciate all the input from the members of the Consortium and most especially the help received from the chair, Professor Martin Everaert. Particular thanks go to Dr. Taneke Schoonheim who unfailingly supported us throughout. Though the creation of the LandLex group and our initial activities received some fnancial support from COST-ENeL, our research has been developed in parallel with our members professional duties. LandLex has no own funding and that is why a word of recognition for their willingness to collaborate is due to each and every one of its active members. In the specifc case of the preparation of this book, we would like to mention speakers at the LandLex training school, notably Professor Carla Marello and Dr. Steve Wright, and most particularly Dr. Philip Durkin who supplied us with the preface for this volume. One person who has been absolutely invaluable has been LandLex co-founder Dr. Chris Mulhall for his work in proofreading the texts, and also for having organised the LandLex Training School in Waterford, Ireland. It goes without saying that we extend our thanks to our patient publisher, Dr. João Paulo Silvestre. A last word is due to the audiences that have so warmly received the presentation of our research activities and have manifested their willingness to join us. We hope to welcome you in a very near future. 3 5 authors Alina Villalva Professor of Linguistics at Faculdade de Letras da Universidade de Lisboa and researcher at Centro de Linguística da Universidade de Lisboa.

    NETWORKING FOR DIVERSITY Annual Report 2017 – 2019 2017 – BGBM BGBM Annual Report 2017 – 2019 Cover image: Research into global biodiversity and its significance for humanity is impossible without networks. The topic of networking can be understood in different ways: in the natural world, with the life processes within an organism – visible in the network of the veins of a leaf or in the genetic diversity in populations of plants – networking takes place by means of pollen, via pollinators or the wind. In the world of research, individual objects, such as a particular plant, are networked with the data obtained from them. Networking is also crucial if this data is to be effective as a knowledge base for solving global issues of the future: collaboration between scientific experts within and across disciplines and with stakeholders at regional, national and international level.

In this study, we investigated the entire visitor’s inability to discriminate between model and angiosperm flora of the Alps with regard to visually dis- mimic, sensory exploitation, and signal standardisation played pollen and floral guides. All species were checked among floral morphs, flowering phases, and co-flowering for the presence of pollen- and stamen-imitating structures species. We critically discuss deviant pollen and stamen using colour photographs. Most flowering plants of the mimicry concepts and evaluate the frequent evolution of Alps display yellow pollen and at least 28% of the species pollen-imitating structures in view of the conflicting use of display pollen- or stamen-imitating structures.

Received: 12/01/2021 The main aim of this study was to characterize the microsculpture of cypsela surface of the Libyan taxa of Bellis. (Asteraceae). Detailed Revised: 28/01/2021 descriptions of cypsela surface were given for each taxon. The results indicated that the examined taxa had very high variations regarding their Accepted: 27/02/2021 cypselae surfaces and these variations have great importance in determining the taxonomic relationships of the discussed taxa. Based on © IJPLS the results, pericarp texture and color could be used for taxonomical diagnosis.

(Asteraceae) species from Turkey Faruk Karahan* Department of Biology, Faculty of Science and Arts, Hatay Mustafa Kemal University, 31040 Hatay, Turkey Abstract – In the present study, the morphological characters, root, stem and leaf anatomy, pollen and achene micromorphology of Bellis L. species (Bellis annua L., B. perennis L. and B. sylvestris Cirillo) distributed in Turkey have been investigated on light and scanning electron microscope. Palynological analysis showed that pollen characters were found as small to medium size, isopolar, radially symmetrical, oblate-spheroidal and prolate- spheroidal, tricolporate and echinate-perforate ornamentation in the three species. Achene characters were found dark brown to yellow in colour, often cylindrical, compressed, with thickened margin, obovate orobovoid shaped, pappus absent and the coat ornamentations are rectangular with short hairs on the surface. As a result of this study, leaf morphology and some pollen characteristics such as pollen size, shape, perforation and distance be- tween spines were demonstrated to be different among the Bellis species. Keywords: Bellis, common daisy, Compositae, taxonomy, SEM Introduction The genus Bellis L. (Asteraceae) has been included in the Fiz et al.
