ARIZONA-SONORA DESERT MUSEUM PLANT CARE INFORMATION Dahlia-rooted Cactus or Sacamatraca Peniocereus striatus DESCRIPTION: The Dahlia-rooted Cactus seems to be a rare cactus of our region. However, it is probably more common than is thought because it is quite cryptic in appearance. It is a twiggy, barely succulent plant, generally looking like a bunch of dry sticks. Only close observation allows one to see the areoles and spines that show that it is a cactus. From its tuber-like roots it can grow up 4 feet tall, although only with support. It blooms in the summer, with delicate, white, night-blooming flowers. The fragrant flowers are pollinated by sphingid moths, leading to production of bright red fruit. Dahlia-rooted Cactus is native to southwestern Arizona, and into the hot deserts and thornscrub of Baja California and Sonora and Sinaloa, Mexico where it is often found growing under ironwood trees and creosote bushes. RECOMMENDED USE: Use as a patio container specimen or as a well-placed landscape oddity. CULTURE: Hardiness: Will take a few degrees of frost. Protect from temperatures below 28oF. Sun tolerance: It can take full sun if watched carefully for dessication. Light shade is much better. Watering and feeding: In containers, it needs regular water (weekly during warm weather) and twice yearly fertilization. In the ground it also needs regular watering to establish, and would benefit by supplemental water during drought after establishment. Soil requirements: Needs good drainage. Silty-sand is best. Pruning: Stems occasionally die and need to be removed. .

Acta Horti Bot. Bucurest. 2018, 45: 47-55 EUPHORBIA GENUS IN BOTANICAL GARDEN IASSY – FEATURES OF LIVING PLANT COLLECTION IFRIM Camelia 1* Abstract: The Euphorbia genus collection from the Botanical Garden of Iassy comprises 28 taxa, of which 18 are originated in the dry areas of South Africa. Most of the South- African species have conservative value, belonging to different sozological categories, at national or international level. The experience of cultivating items from the collection led to the establishment of characteristics concerning cultivation particularities, which are useful for horticultural purposes. The morphological studies of the plants cultivated in GBI greenhouses put together with information from specialty literature have permitted the development of an artificial key, useful in determining species from the collection. Key words: Euphorbia genus, Botanical Garden Iassy, artificial taxonomic key Received 30 September 2018 Accepted 15 November 2018 Introduction The Euphorbia genus is considered the second richest in the angiosperms group, the number of circumscribed species are appreciated at approximately 2000 (Berry et al. 2016) or even 2250 (Esser 2009). The genus has a cosmopolitan distribution (except Antarctica), the majority of the species occurs in tropical and subtropical Africa and America. The habitats occupied by species are very diverse, from forest steppe to arid areas; biological forms are very diverse as well, from herbaceous annual plants to trees with impressive dimensions. Characteristic for this polyphyletic genus is the inflorescence structure, named cyathium; likewise spurges are recognized for their irritant latex (Carter & Leach 2001). The genus’ name seems to have come from the name Euphorbus (Euphorbos) of the Greek physician of Juba (Iuba) II, king of Mauritania (a Berber kingdom that was part of present-day western Algeria and northern Morocco) from first century AD (Smith 1849).

Pima County Is Included in Appendix B
The lesser long-nosed bat is found during the summer within desert grasslands and scrublands. The lesser long-nosed bat spends the day in caves and tunnels and forages at night upon plant nectar and pollen. This bat is an important pollinator of agave, and organ pipe and saguaro cacti (AGFD 2003). Roosting occurs in caves, abandoned buildings, and mines, which are usually located at the base of mountains where food sources are present (AGFD 2003). The lesser long-nosed bat is a seasonal resident of the OPCNM. Roosting sites are located in the OPCNM, but no known roosting sites occur within the project corridor (NPS 2003). The closest location of a known maternity colony to the project corridor would be approximately 15 miles (NPS 2003). 3.6.1.3 Acuña Cactus The candidate status of Acuña cactus was last reviewed on May 11, 2005 (70 FR 24870). Seven populations of Acuña cactus are currently known to exist (Baiza 2007). The species is restricted to well drained knolls and gravel ridges between major washes on substrates, including granite hills and flats and bright red to white andesite, occurring from 1,300 to 2,000 feet in elevation (AGFD 2004). The species requires insect vectors for pollination, with polylectic bee species being the primary agent (AGFD 2004). Dispersal occurs primarily through gravity, and secondarily by wind, rain, and small insects. As a candidate species, the Acuña cactus is not Federally protected, but is protected by the Arizona’s Native Plant Law. Consideration is given to candidate species because of the potential for their listing during project activities, which could require USFWS Section 7 consultation.

Tissue Localization of Betacyanins in Cactus Stems
Revista Mexicana de Biodiversidad 83: 413-420, 2012 Tissue localization of betacyanins in cactus stems Localización de betacianinas en tejido del tallo de cactus Alessandro Mosco Department of Life Sciences, University of Trieste, Via Licio Giorgieri 5 I-34127 Trieste, Italy. [email protected] Abstract. Betalains are soluble pigments found only in the suborder Chenopodiniae, while in all other Angiospermae they are replaced by anthocyanins. The convergent evolution of the presence of anthocyanins and betalains in vegetative tissues supports the hypothesis of a similar function, based on the absorption properties of these pigments. The screening effect of anthocyanins results in the reduction of the amount of photoinhibition. Betalains, being the anthocyanin counterpart in most families of Caryophyllales, were also suggested to have a screening role. This study is aimed at identifying in which Cactaceae stem tissues betacyanins, reddish to violet betalain pigments, accumulate. Stem accumulation of betacyanins was observed in cacti both in their natural habitat and in cultivation. The localization of betacyanins was assessed by light microscope studies on tubercle transverse sections. During 2 field trips in distinct years to the Mexican plateau in March, many cactus species, belonging to different genera, were observed displaying a reddish stem. Light microscope studies on cultivated plants showed that betacyanins accumulate in the hypodermis and in the outer layers of the chlorenchyma, where they may act as a screen, thus protecting the photosystems present in the underlying chlorenchyma, and have a possible antioxidant function in the cortex. Key words: betacyanins, cacti, epidermis, hypodermis. Resumen. Las betalaínas son pigmentos solubles que se encuentran sólo en el suborden Chenopodiniae, mientras que en el resto de Angiospermae, lo que existe son antocianinas.

Hernández Departamento de Botánica, Instituto de Biología, UNAM, Apartado postal 70-233, 04510 México, D. F., México. *Correspondent: [email protected] Abstract. Acanthocereus chiapensis Bravo was described from plants collected in Chiapas, Mexico in March 1967. Field observations as well as detailed morphological and anatomical studies revealed that this entity rather belongs to genus Peniocereus. This taxonomic opinion was supported by the presence in this plant of tuberous roots; relatively thin stems; relatively small ﬂ owers and fruits, with numerous, weak spines; absence of primary phloem ﬁ ber caps on cortical bundles; and presence of minute, inter-cellular interstices in the seeds. Consequently, the following new combination is made herein: P. chiapensis (Bravo) C. Gómez-Hinostrosa and H. M. Hernández. Key words: Cactaceae, Peniocereus chiapensis, Acanthocereus chiapensis, A. griseus, Mexico, Chiapas, Guatemala.
