Earlier versions of these data Generic concepts and classification of New World were maintained in dBase during the 1980s and Gesneriaceae have changed with the recent surge in 1990s with an emphasis on New World molecular-based phylogenies, and that has made it challenging to determine the accepted names in Gesneriaceae. In the late 1990s, the data were historical literature and outdated names that persist in transferred to Microsoft Access and expanded to databases such as GenBank. The list is organized include Old World names, literature, and specimen alphabetically with a look-up table that links all and live collection data.

  • Outline of Angiosperm Phylogeny
    Outline of angiosperm phylogeny: orders, families, and representative genera with emphasis on Oregon native plants Priscilla Spears December 2013 The following listing gives an introduction to the phylogenetic classification of the flowering plants that has emerged in recent decades, and which is based on nucleic acid sequences as well as morphological and developmental data. This listing emphasizes temperate families of the Northern Hemisphere and is meant as an overview with examples of Oregon native plants. It includes many exotic genera that are grown in Oregon as ornamentals plus other plants of interest worldwide. The genera that are Oregon natives are printed in a blue font. Genera that are exotics are shown in black, however genera in blue may also contain non-native species. Names separated by a slash are alternatives or else the nomenclature is in flux. When several genera have the same common name, the names are separated by commas. The order of the family names is from the linear listing of families in the APG III report. For further information, see the references on the last page.

  • Temporal and Spatial Origin of Gesneriaceae in the New World Inferred from Plastid DNA Sequences
    bs_bs_banner Botanical Journal of the Linnean Society, 2013, 171, 61–79. With 3 figures Temporal and spatial origin of Gesneriaceae in the New World inferred from plastid DNA sequences MATHIEU PERRET1*, ALAIN CHAUTEMS1, ANDRÉA ONOFRE DE ARAUJO2 and NICOLAS SALAMIN3,4 1Conservatoire et Jardin botaniques de la Ville de Genève, Ch. de l’Impératrice 1, CH-1292 Chambésy, Switzerland 2Centro de Ciências Naturais e Humanas, Universidade Federal do ABC, Rua Santa Adélia, 166, Bairro Bangu, Santo André, Brazil 3Department of Ecology and Evolution, University of Lausanne, CH-1015 Lausanne, Switzerland 4Swiss Institute of Bioinformatics, Quartier Sorge, CH-1015 Lausanne, Switzerland Received 15 December 2011; revised 3 July 2012; accepted for publication 18 August 2012 Gesneriaceae are represented in the New World (NW) by a major clade (c. 1000 species) currently recognized as subfamily Gesnerioideae. Radiation of this group occurred in all biomes of tropical America and was accompanied by extensive phenotypic and ecological diversification. Here we performed phylogenetic analyses using DNA sequences from three plastid loci to reconstruct the evolutionary history of Gesnerioideae and to investigate its relationship with other lineages of Gesneriaceae and Lamiales. Our molecular data confirm the inclusion of the South Pacific Coronanthereae and the Old World (OW) monotypic genus Titanotrichum in Gesnerioideae and the sister-group relationship of this subfamily to the rest of the OW Gesneriaceae. Calceolariaceae and the NW genera Peltanthera and Sanango appeared successively sister to Gesneriaceae, whereas Cubitanthus, which has been previously assigned to Gesneriaceae, is shown to be related to Linderniaceae. Based on molecular dating and biogeographical reconstruction analyses, we suggest that ancestors of Gesneriaceae originated in South America during the Late Cretaceous.

  • Atoll Research Bulletin No. 503 the Vascular Plants Of
    ATOLL RESEARCH BULLETIN NO. 503 THE VASCULAR PLANTS OF MAJURO ATOLL, REPUBLIC OF THE MARSHALL ISLANDS BY NANCY VANDER VELDE ISSUED BY NATIONAL MUSEUM OF NATURAL HISTORY SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION WASHINGTON, D.C., U.S.A. AUGUST 2003 Uliga Figure 1. Majuro Atoll THE VASCULAR PLANTS OF MAJURO ATOLL, REPUBLIC OF THE MARSHALL ISLANDS ABSTRACT Majuro Atoll has been a center of activity for the Marshall Islands since 1944 and is now the major population center and port of entry for the country. Previous to the accompanying study, no thorough documentation has been made of the vascular plants of Majuro Atoll. There were only reports that were either part of much larger discussions on the entire Micronesian region or the Marshall Islands as a whole, and were of a very limited scope. Previous reports by Fosberg, Sachet & Oliver (1979, 1982, 1987) presented only 115 vascular plants on Majuro Atoll. In this study, 563 vascular plants have been recorded on Majuro. INTRODUCTION The accompanying report presents a complete flora of Majuro Atoll, which has never been done before. It includes a listing of all species, notation as to origin (i.e. indigenous, aboriginal introduction, recent introduction), as well as the original range of each. The major synonyms are also listed. For almost all, English common names are presented. Marshallese names are given, where these were found, and spelled according to the current spelling system, aside from limitations in diacritic markings. A brief notation of location is given for many of the species. The entire list of 563 plants is provided to give the people a means of gaining a better understanding of the nature of the plants of Majuro Atoll.

Resumen. – Una nueva especie de Eriocnemis (Trochilidae) del suroeste de Colombia. – Una nueva especie de colibrí, el Zamarrito del Pinche (Eriocnemis isabellae, sp. nov.), es descrita de la Serranía del Pinche, un macizo aislado e inexplorado localizado en el Departamento del Cauca en el suroeste de Colombia (02°16’04.18”N, 77°21’26.41”W, 2800 m s.n.m.). Esta especie representa un nuevo miembro distincto del género Eriocnemis y habita los bosques templados y nublados de la Serranía. Aunque se puede identificar fácilmente como un miembro del género Eriocnemis por sus zamarros blancos, el azul violeta en las infracaudales de la cola y la cola azul negra bifurcada, se diferencia ampliamente de la mayoría de las especies de su género en tener la cara, corona y nuca de color negro con visos amarillosos verde oliva. Además, tiene una gorguera bicolor iridiscente distincta, azul violeta y verde. Este nuevo taxón comparte algunas características con otros de su género (i.e., E. vestitus, E. nigrivestis) y esta ecológicamente asociado a bosques enanos ocupando un pequeño rango en pendientes pronunciadas a lo largo de filos montañosos.

    Selbyana 2(1):67-132.1977 NEW GENERA AND SPECIES OF GESNERIACEAE FROM THE NEOTROPICS Hans Wiehler* The preparation of a new classification of the New World Gesneriaceae, preliminary work for the floras of Panama, Colombia, and Ecuador, and field work by fellow workers and myself have accumulated a wealth of new spe­ cies to be described, and also necessitate the establishment of four new genera. The many novelties recently collected are foremost an indication that the Gesneriaceae (and most other tropical plant families) have not re­ ceived due attention in botanical field surveys in the past, even though the neotropical cloud forests and rain forests are disappearing at an ever increas­ ing, now alarming rate. Of the more than 120 new species of Gesneriaceae currently awaiting description at the greenhouses of the Marie Selby Botan­ ical Gardens, 48 are published in this account. Others will follow in the next issues of Selbyana. Many of these species have horticultural value and will be distributed to commercial growers and gesneriad societies. I. THE GESNERIACEAE OF THE Rio P ALENQUE SCIENCE CENTER IN ECUADOR Plates 19-26 The flora of this field station on the western slopes of the Ecuadorian Andes will be published in volume 4 of Selby ana. Among the more than 1100 species of vascular plants occuring in the small territory (70 hectares) of the Science Center, there are 14 flowering plant families which are represent­ ed by over 20 species each. The 32 species of Gesneriaceae found at the Cen­ ter and in the surrounding area attest to the abundance of gesneriads in the Andean flora.
