Pelagodoxa Henryana (Arecaceae): a Supplement of Additional Photographs and Figures to the 2019 Article in the Journal PALMS
PALMARBOR Hodel et al.: Pelagodoxa supplement 2019-1: 1-24 Pelagodoxa henryana (Arecaceae): A Supplement of Additional Photographs and Figures to the 2019 Article in the Journal PALMS DONALD R. HODEL, JEAN-FRANCOIS BUTAUD, CRAIG E. BARRETT, MICHAEL H. GRAYUM, JAMES KOMEN, DAVID H. LORENCE, JEFF MARCUS, AND ARIITEUIRA FALCHETTO With its large, initially undivided leaves; big, curious, warty fruits; monotypic nature; and mysterious, remote, island habitat, Pelagodoxa henryana has long fascinated palm botanists, collectors and growers, and been one of the holy grails of all who have an interest in palms. The possibility of a second species of Pelagodoxa has generated a substantial amount of interest but the recent literature on the subject has dismissed this prospect and accepted or recognized only one species. However, for 40 years the senior author has propagated and grown P. henryana nearly side by side with a second species of the genus, first in Hawaii, U.S.A and later at his wife’s home in Papeari, Tahiti, French Polynesia, allowing ample opportunity to compare and contrast the two species at various stages of development. An article we wrote reassessing the genus Pelagodoxa was published in the journal PALMS [Hodel et al., Reassessment of Pelagodoxa, PALMS 63(3): 113-146. 2019]. In it we document substantial and critical differences between the two species, P. henryana and P. mesocarpa, establish the validity and resurrect the name of the second species from synonymy, discuss molecular data, phylogeny and phytogeography, ethnobotany and conservation of Pelagodoxa and what impact, if any, they might have had in its speciation and insular distribution. -
Análisis Aeropalinológico Del Parque Nacional El Palmar
Bol. Soc. Argent. Bot. 52 (3) 2017 N. E. Muñoz et al. - Análisis aeropalinológico del Parque NacionalISSN El0373-580 Palmar X Bol. Soc. Argent. Bot. 52 (3): 473-496. 2017 ANÁLISIS AEROPALINOLÓGICO EN TRES ÁREAS DE VEGETACIÓN DENTRO DEL PARQUE NACIONAL EL PALMAR (COLÓN, ENTRE RÍOS) Y SU RELACIÓN CON LA VEGETACIÓN LOCAL Y REGIONAL NADIA E. MUÑOZ1, MERCEDES DI PASQUO1, FERNANDO BIGANZOLI2 y WILLIAM B. BATISTA2,3 Summary: Aeropalinological analysis in three vegetation areas within El Palmar National Park (Colón, Entre Ríos) and its relationship with the local and regional vegetation. The diversity of pollen rain monthly collected during two years (2011-2013) from the atmosphere in Tauber traps located at three sites in El Palmar National Park (Entre Ríos Province) is used to characterize the source vegetation. Site 1 is a mixed area composed of grassland, palm savanna, and wetland communities, site 2 is a grassland area and site 3 is a dense palm savanna. A total of 71 pollen-grain types grouped in 43 families coming from local, regional and extra- regional areas are identified. Of them, sixteen pollen types with more than 1% of Annual Pollen Influx in at least two samples were used in this analysis. Different factors involved in quali-quantitave changes of taxa during the observation interval (e.g. pollination affinity, origin of pollen grains, canopy effect, meteorological variables) are further considered. The floral composition of each site compared to their palynoassemblages revealed that site 2 is characterized by a high abundance of Asteraeceae-Asteroideae, with an increase in the value of Vernonia (Asteraceae Cichoroidea) and Lamiaceae during the second year. -

Wild boar is an invasive species introduced to Argentina for sport hunting purposes. Here, this spe- cies is present in at least 8 phytogeographic provinces but we only have information in four of them (Pampean grassland, Espinal, Subantarctic and Monte Desert). We review the ecological strategies and impact of wild boar on ecosystem processes in these different phytogeographic provinces and identify knowledge gaps and research priorities for a better understanding of this invasive species in Argentina. -
Monocotyledons and Gymnosperms of Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands
SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION Contributions from the United States National Herbarium Volume 52: 1-415 Monocotyledons and Gymnosperms of Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands Editors Pedro Acevedo-Rodríguez and Mark T. Strong Department of Botany National Museum of Natural History Washington, DC 2005 ABSTRACT Acevedo-Rodríguez, Pedro and Mark T. Strong. Monocots and Gymnosperms of Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands. Contributions from the United States National Herbarium, volume 52: 415 pages (including 65 figures). The present treatment constitutes an updated revision for the monocotyledon and gymnosperm flora (excluding Orchidaceae and Poaceae) for the biogeographical region of Puerto Rico (including all islets and islands) and the Virgin Islands. With this contribution, we fill the last major gap in the flora of this region, since the dicotyledons have been previously revised. This volume recognizes 33 families, 118 genera, and 349 species of Monocots (excluding the Orchidaceae and Poaceae) and three families, three genera, and six species of gymnosperms. The Poaceae with an estimated 89 genera and 265 species, will be published in a separate volume at a later date. When Ackerman’s (1995) treatment of orchids (65 genera and 145 species) and the Poaceae are added to our account of monocots, the new total rises to 35 families, 272 genera and 759 species. The differences in number from Britton’s and Wilson’s (1926) treatment is attributed to changes in families, generic and species concepts, recent introductions, naturalization of introduced species and cultivars, exclusion of cultivated plants, misdeterminations, and discoveries of new taxa or new distributional records during the last seven decades. -
