New Taxa, New Records and Name Changes for Southern African Plants Bothalia 17,2: 269-275 (1987) New taxa, new records and name changes for southern African plants G. E. GIBBS RUSSELL, C. REID. L. FISH. G. GERMISHUIZEN. M. VAN WYK. J. VAN ROOY and STAFF Keywords: name changes, new records, new taxa, PRECIS, southern Africa ABSTRACT Alterations for the year 1986 to the inventory maintained in PRECIS are reported for bryophytes, pteridophytes and monocotyledons, and for a few dicotyledons. For the cryptogams and monocots there are 77 newly described species or infraspecific taxa, 27 names brought back into use, and nine species newly reported for southern Africa, resulting in 113 additions to the total list of species. Five species were removed because they were mistakenly recorded from the area. Seventy-five names have gone into synonymy, there are 52 new combinations, and there are 35 orthographic corrections, resulting in 237 alterations to the list of species. The total of 355 additions, deletions and alterations represents about 5% of the total species and infraspecific taxa for the cryptogams and monocots. UITTREKSEL Veranderings vir die jaar 1986 aan die lys wat in PRECIS gehou word, word van briofiete, pteridofiete en monokotiele, en van n paar dikotiele vermeld. By die kriptogame en monokotiele is daar 77 nuut-beskryfde spesies of infraspesifieke taksons, 27 name wat in gebruik tefuggebring is en 9 spesies wat nuut aangeteken is in suidelike Afrika, wat gelei het tot 113 toevoegings tot die totale lys van spesies. Vyf spesies moes verwyder word omdat hulle verkeerdelik in die gebied aangeteken is. Vyf-en-sewentig name is in sinonimie geplaas, daar is 52 nuwe kombinasies en daar is 35 ortografiese regstellings, wat 237 wysigings aan die lys van spesies tot gevolg gehad het. Die totaal van 355 toevoegings, skrappings en wysigings verteenwoordig meer as 5% van die totale getal spesies en infraspesifieke taksons by die kriptogame en monokotiele.

Here we present a plastome phylogenomic analysis of 250 complete plastomes (179 genera) sampled from 44 of the 52 tribes of Poaceae. Plastome sequences were determined from high throughput sequencing libraries Submitted 8 August 2017 and the assemblies represent over 28.7 Mbases of sequence data. Phylogenetic signal Accepted 8 January 2018 Published 2 February 2018 was characterized in 14 partitions, including (1) complete plastomes; (2) protein coding regions; (3) noncoding regions; and (4) three loci commonly used in single Corresponding authors Jeffery M.

  • A Phylogenetic Analysis of Poaceae Tribe Poeae Sensu Lato Based On
    KEW BULLETIN 62: 425-454 (2007) 425 A phylogenetic analysis of Poaceae tribe Poeae sensu lato based on morphological characters and sequence data from three plastid-encoded genes: evidence for reticulation, and a new classification for the tribe Robert J. Soreng1, Jerrold I. Davis2 & Monica A. Voionmaa2 Summary. Phylogenetic analysis of variation in 18 morphological characters and structural and nucleotide sequence variation in three plastid-encoded genes provides a well-supported hypothesis of relationships within Poaceae supertribe Poodae. This supertribe includes tribes Poeae, Aveneae and Hainardieae, and other small tribes. Of the circa 135 genera that are assigned to this group, 57 were sampled, representing all major groups and most of the minor groups that have been recognised as tribes or subtribes. Historical and modern classifications of Poodae are reviewed and examined with respect to relationships detected by the phylogenetic analyses. Two major plastid DNA lineages are detected, corresponding in general to groups traditionally recognised as Aveneae and Poeae, but about one fifth of the genera are placed in positions that conflict with traditional classifications. When comparing trees obtained from the morphological character set with those obtained from simultaneous analysis of the morphological and molecular character sets, the character distributions on the trees reveal substantial differences between homoplasy levels for several morphological characters. These results suggest the possibility of wide hybrid origins for some groups, especially the subtribe Airinae. A revised classification is provided for Poodae, with all previously recognised tribes subsumed within a broadly circumscribed Poeae sensu lato, in which accepted genera are accommodated in 21 subtribes. Aveneae and smaller groups that have been recognised previously as tribes, including Hainardieae, Phalarideae, Phleeae and Seslerieae, are reduced to subtribes.

  • Sumatra, He Mentioned Paspalum a Species

When BUSE enumeration of the gave an grasses collected by JUNG- in and under HUHN Java Sumatra, he mentioned Paspalum a species, RETZIUS in the 1781 hirsutum. described by year as Paspalum BUSE identified from Sumatra the of a grass as being species RETZIUS, on account of the description, having certainly not studied the authentic which that time specimen, was at not easy to consult. It may be that even the work of RETZIUS was not at his disposal, it is probable that he studied only the description, given afterwards in LAMARCK’S Ency- clopédie. RETZIUS described his species from China, where it was col- lected BLADH. the of RETZIUS by Although description agrees fairly well with BUSE’S plant, we are in modern times not so satisfied with such an identification, because it is a priori not sure at all that the Chinese is identic with species a grass from the high plateau of Sumatra, the more because since the description by RETZIUS and the identification by BUSE, such a Paspalum was never found in the wide area between therefore China and Sumatra. I carefully studied the type of RETZIUS the of Lund for at herbarium (Sweden), which was kindly forwarded study from the director at Lund and I compared it with BUSE’S type, the condition. preserved at Rijksherbarium. The latter is in a very good first in the Already at sight the two types agree very much especially the and vegetative parts, number of racemes, their length general form In the much is genus Paspalum, a very large one, weight given by agrostologists to the form and outline of the spikelets and I will there- fore give my opinion on the type of RETZIUS first.
