On the regular webpage http://www.hcsstex.org and Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/Houston- CactusSucculentSociety/ you can find information about the club, programs and events. We now also have an active Facebook group https://www.facebook.com/groups/1049635895242129/?source_id=254317392276 for you to discuss anything related to cacti and succulents. Membership Kathy Fewox HCSS celebrated its anniversary on July 24, 2019 by having a potluck dinner. Seventeen members attended the meeting. There was lots of wonderful food to enjoy, and good company. Cindy Gray donated four Tephro- cactus plants, two for the raffle and two as door prizes. Our meeting on August 28 was attended by nineteen members who braved the threat of rain and flooding to reach the Multi-Service Center. Most of us managed to get there with little trouble, as the worst of the rain had moved south of the 610 loop by about 6:30 p.m. However, Robert Smith got stuck in rain-delayed traffic on his trip in from Highlands, and didn’t arrive until the meeting was officially over. Also attending were four guests: Chris Balshaw, Aditi Nabar, Ziona Burkett (a Florida friend of BonnieJean Grady’s), and Mariela Hiraldo (daughter of Alan Schachter). Dave Thomas donated a Carnegiea gigantea (Giant Saguaro) as a door prize. It isn’t giant yet, but winner Frank Lee is hoping it will grow into its name.

Received 18 January, 2017, Accepted 8 March, 2017 The two target cactus species in this study, Micranthocereus flaviflorus subsp. densiflorus (Buining and Brederoo) P.J.Braun and Esteves and Micranthocereus. polyanthus subsp. alvinii M. Machado and Hofacker, are endemic to the state of Bahia and have ornamental value. Therefore, this work proposed to establish M. flaviflorus in vitro, as well as to micropropagate both species. The temperature regimes 25°C and 30°C and the alternating temperatures of 15 to 25°C were tested for in vitro germination of M. flaviflorus seeds, which achieved higher germination rates at 25°C. Regarding nutrient media, the lower water potentials of MS and MS/2 media, when compared to agar, allowed the germination of M. flaviflorus seeds. Furthermore, the test of plant growth regulators for in vitro multiplication consisted of regulator concentrations in a factorial arrangement (2x4): Naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA) (0 and 1.34 μmol L-1) and Kinetin (KIN) (0, 6.74, 20.22 and 40.44 μmol L-1) in MS/2 media.

PHYLOGENETIC RELATIONSHIPS IN THE CACTUS FAMILY (CACTACEAE) BASED ON EVIDENCE FROM TRNK/ MATK AND TRNL-TRNF SEQUENCES1 RETO NYFFELER2 Department of Organismic and Evolutionary Biology, Harvard University Herbaria, 22 Divinity Avenue, Cambridge, Massachusetts 02138 USA Cacti are a large and diverse group of stem succulents predominantly occurring in warm and arid North and South America. Chloroplast DNA sequences of the trnK intron, including the matK gene, were sequenced for 70 ingroup taxa and two outgroups from the Portulacaceae. In order to improve resolution in three major groups of Cactoideae, trnL-trnF sequences from members of these clades were added to a combined analysis. The three exemplars of Pereskia did not form a monophyletic group but a basal grade. The well-supported subfamilies Cactoideae and Opuntioideae and the genus Maihuenia formed a weakly supported clade sister to Pereskia. The parsimony analysis supported a sister group relationship of Maihuenia and Opuntioideae, although the likelihood analysis did not. Blossfeldia, a monotypic genus of morphologically modi®ed and ecologically specialized cacti, was identi®ed as the sister group to all other Cactoideae.

While all three of these genera are often statuesque and the spines are short and very light brown, they easy to cultivate, and Cipocereus and Pilosocereus can briefly sport a lovely shade of red on new plants often have waxy cuticles in various shades of growth. Closed flower buds are usually green blue and green, large bat-pollinated flowers, and big and have few petals, but the petal tips are red or, fruits that split open to yield brightly colored pulp. rarely, bluish, which seems to hint at the rela- N tionship with Cipocereus. Brasilicereus The more robust species, B. phaeacanthus, usu- ally has chocolate brown spines, from which the Brasilicereus is a genus of two species, B. phaea- name is derived (phaea = brown; canthus = spine). canthus and B. markgrafii, endemic to Bahía and This species branches more, forming plants to L LEFT Brasilicereus markgrafii; these typically upright stems are only 1–2 cm diameter.
