While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1.The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. -

Notes Sur Les Différents Taxons De Phaseolus À Partir Des

Freytag the manuscript of the monograph (Freytag, G.F. & D.G. Debouck. 2002. Taxonomy, distribution, and ecology of the genus Phaseolus (Leguminosae- Papilionoideae) in North America, Mexico and Central America. SIDA Bot. Misc. 23: 1-300), it was mutually agreed with the Editor of the Botanical Research Institute of Texas that the monograph should not exceed 300 pages. We had a lot of specimens that the two of us had seen and annotated together in Mayagüez, or separately. We agreed with the Editor that at least an identification list should be in the monograph (pages 291-294), so Curators of Herbaria would have identifications for the specimens they kindly allowed us to see. Since 2002 more Herbaria have been visited (see full list at the end of this explanatory note) by myself and more specimens have been annotated. Obviously few journals would accept the publication of these records in full. The publication of these ‘note books of phaseology’ on the web site of the genebank of CIAT where the largest collection of beans is currently maintained, was one way to put that information available to the public. This file is periodically updated as more visits to Herbaria increase the number of specimens of species belonging to this section. -
Rediscovery of Arrabidaea Chica (Bignoniaceae) and Entada Polystachya Var
Phytotaxa 125 (1): 53–58 (2013) ISSN 1179-3155 (print edition) www.mapress.com/phytotaxa/ Article PHYTOTAXA Copyright © 2013 Magnolia Press ISSN 1179-3163 (online edition) http://dx.doi.org/10.11646/phytotaxa.125.1.8 Rediscovery of Arrabidaea chica (Bignoniaceae) and Entada polystachya var. polyphylla (Fabaceae) in Puerto Rico MARCOS A. CARABALLO-ORTIZ Herbarium, Botanical Garden of the University of Puerto Rico, 1187 Calle Flamboyán, San Juan, Puerto Rico 00926, USA. Current address: Pennsylvania State University, Department of Biology, 208 Mueller Laboratory, University Park, Pennsylvania 16802, USA. E-mail: [email protected]; [email protected] Abstract In this contribution the rediscovery of the lianas Arrabidaea chica (Bignoniaceae) and Entada polystachya var. polyphylla (Fabaceae-Mimosoideae) in Puerto Rico is reported. These species were first collected during the 1880s and subsequently considered extirpated. Their current status in Puerto Rico is discussed, and recommendations for their conservation are offered. Introduction During the decade of 1880, the German botanist Paul Ernst Emil Sintenis and the Puerto Rican naturalist Agustín Stahl collected several plant species and made significant contributions to the knowledge of the flora of Puerto Rico (Urban 1903–1911, Stahl 1883–1888). During their explorations throughout the island, Sintenis and Stahl collected several species new to science and new records for Puerto Rico, some of which are still known only from their collections (Acevedo-Rodríguez 2007, 2013). Examples of these are Arrabidaea chica (Bonpl. in Humboldt & Bonpland 1807: 107, pl. 31) Verlot (1868: 154) (Bignoniaceae) and Entada polystachya (Linnaeus 1753: 520) Candolle (1825: 425) var. polyphylla (Bentham 1840: 133) Barneby (1996: 175) [synonym: Entadopsis polyphylla (Benth.) Britton (in Britton & Rose 1928: 191)] (Fabaceae-Mimosoideae), both collected in 1885 and 1886. -
