  • Revision of Annesijoa, Elateriospermum and the Introduced Species of Hevea in Malesia (Euphorbiaceae)
    BLUMEA 49: 425– 440 Published on 10 December 2004 doi: 10.3767/000651904X484351 REVISION OF ANNESIJOA, ELATERIOSPERMUM AND THE INTRODUCED SPECIES OF HEVEA IN MALESIA (EUPHORBIACEAE) HOANG VAN SAM1 & PETER C. vaN WELZEN2 SUMMARY Annesijoa is an endemic monotypic genus from New Guinea with as single species A. novoguineensis. Elateriospermum is also monotypic (E. tapos) and found in West Malesia. The South American genus Hevea comprises about 10 species. One species (H. brasiliensis) is presently cultivated worldwide in plantations for its rubber and has become one of the major economic products of SE Asia. Two other species, H. guianensis and H. pauciflora are sometimes present in Malesian botanical gardens. Key words: Euphorbiaceae, Annesijoa, Elateriospermum, Hevea, Malesia. INTRODUCTION Three genera are revised for Flora Malesiana, Annesijoa Pax & K. Hoffm., Elaterio­ spermum Blume, and Hevea Aubl. These genera are not very closely related, but they are all part of the subfamily Crotonoideae (Webster, 1994; Radcliffe-Smith, 2001), though classified in different tribes (Jatropheae, Elateriospermeae, and Micrandreae subtribe Heveinae, respectively). Typical for the Micrandreae are colporate pollen with a reticulate sexine, articulate laticifers, absent petals, and plenty of endosperm (oily in the Heveinae). The Jatropheae and Elateriospermeae share inaperculate pollen with a typical ‘crotonoid’ sexine, inarticulate laticifers, petals absent or not, and seeds with or without endosperm. They differ in several characters, the Elateriospermeae lack endosperm and have no petals, while these are present in the Jatropheae. The three genera can easily be distinguished from each other. Hevea and Elaterio­ spermum have white latex, whereas Annesijoa has variable latex ranging from clear to white to red.

E-mail: Abstract: The Universidade Federal Rural do Rio de Janeiro (Federal Rural University of Rio de Janeiro) Botanical Garden (JB/UFRRJ) has a green area occupied mostly by sparsely planted arboreal species, in addition to a small area of regenerating forest and plantations. In consideration of the Brazilian federal rules for botanical gardens, the collection of the Arboretum was studied systematically: collection of complete samples, herborization and identification of the species by accepted botanical methods. The occurrence of native species from different Brazilian phytogeographic domains and common names were verified. A total of 125 species of arboreal Eudicotyledons, belonging to 30 families were registered, of which Fabaceae, Bignoniaceae, Malvaceae, Myrtaceae and Anacardiaceae were the richest ones. Species in danger of extinction and others with biological, ecological or economic value are represented, demonstrating the importance of the area to flora conservation.

Braca). 1 ABSTRACT A phytochemical study of chloroform-methanol and methanol extracts of Joannesia princeps Vell. leaves led to the isolation of twenty eight compounds, including two α- ionones (2, 5), three glycosylated monoterpenes (1, 3, 4), eight phenolic compounds (6, 8, 9, 12, 14, 17, 18, 24), two gallotannins (10, 11), twelve flavonoids (7, 15, 16, 19, 20-23, 25- 28), and one lignan (13). The structural characterization of the isolated compounds was performed by spectroscopic data and comparison with the literature. All compounds were isolated from this species and from the genus Joannesia for the first time. The chemotaxonomic importance of these metabolites is therefore summarized. Keywords: Joannesia princeps; Flavonoids; Gallotannins; Phytochemical study; Chemotaxonomy 2 1. Subject and source The genus Joannesia (Euphorbiaceae) comprises two species, one of which is J. princeps Vell., endemic to subtropical and coastal regions of Brazil, but it is also cultivated in Africa and Asia (Araújo et al., 2016). Joannesia princeps leaves were collected and identified by Momdouh Shokry at El-Zoharia Botanical Garden, Cairo, Egypt, in June 2013.

  • The Ecology of Trees in the Tropical Rain Forest
    This page intentionally left blank The Ecology of Trees in the Tropical Rain Forest Current knowledge of the ecology of tropical rain-forest trees is limited, with detailed information available for perhaps only a few hundred of the many thousands of species that occur. Yet a good understanding of the trees is essential to unravelling the workings of the forest itself. This book aims to summarise contemporary understanding of the ecology of tropical rain-forest trees. The emphasis is on comparative ecology, an approach that can help to identify possible adaptive trends and evolutionary constraints and which may also lead to a workable ecological classification for tree species, conceptually simplifying the rain-forest community and making it more amenable to analysis. The organisation of the book follows the life cycle of a tree, starting with the mature tree, moving on to reproduction and then considering seed germi- nation and growth to maturity. Topics covered therefore include structure and physiology, population biology, reproductive biology and regeneration. The book concludes with a critical analysis of ecological classification systems for tree species in the tropical rain forest. IAN TURNERhas considerable first-hand experience of the tropical rain forests of South-East Asia, having lived and worked in the region for more than a decade. After graduating from Oxford University, he took up a lecturing post at the National University of Singapore and is currently Assistant Director of the Singapore Botanic Gardens. He has also spent time at Harvard University as Bullard Fellow, and at Kyoto University as Guest Professor in the Center for Ecological Research.
