Studies in South American Malpighiaceae, Lauraceae and Hernandiaceae, Especially of Surinam Studies in South American Malpighiaceae, Lauraceae and Hernandiaceae, especially of Surinam BY A.J.G.H. Kostermans (Utrecht). INTRODUCTION. Acknowledgments. The present investigation has been carried out in the “Botanisch Museum en Herbarium” of the University of Utrecht. I wish to render to Dr. A. Pulle, the Director of the sincere thanks for the facilities afforded Institute, my most to and for the interest in the of this work. me progress I indebted to of the Berlin- am also greatly the Directors Dahlem, Brussels, Göttingen, Leiden and Paris Herbaria and to the members of their staff for the opportunity of studying in these Institutes the collections entrusted to their care and advice. words of thanks due to for their helpful Special are Dr. O. C. Schmidt (Berlin-Dahlem), Dr. R. Benoist (Paris) and Dr. Exell (South Kensington). To Mr. Wilmott for the information he (South Kensington) I am obliged gave me with to the Persea, and to Dr. Hochreutiner regard genus (Geneva) for the loan of the type specimen of Ocotea vernicosa. To the Brussels, Berlin-Dahlem, Göttingen, Kew, Leiden indebted the of and Paris Herbaria I am for loan specimens which I needed for the solution of various special problems. 2 Scope of work. It in the first Surinam which in this are place species to paper has been In attention paid. various instances however it was found advisable revise of and then of to a part a genus, course species not occuring in Surinam had also to be taken into consideration. Material studied. I have done my best to make the enumeration of the specimens in collected Surinam as complete and reliable as possible. For this I have verified all the older determinations. The purpose Surinam collections preserved in the Herbaria of Berlin- and Dahlem, Brussels, Gottingen Leiden are entirely included. It doubtless that other herbaria is true too possess specimens but of Surinam plants, as the greater part of these are merely duplicates of sheets belonging to the herbaria mentioned above, these collections are not of great importance. Those of Daniel Rolander, presumably in the Copenhagen Herbarium, could is not be found; this a great pity, because the study of these is for the solution of several plants absolutely necessary problems of identity. The Surinam material preserved in Utrecht consists for the greater part of collections made by it the ,,Boschwezen” (Forestry Bureau); was collected mainly in the localities indicated on the the end of this map at paper. In the of the trees in the a method 1924 numbering forest, which to that date had been the Bureau up applied by Forestry with such a great succes, was unfortunately stopped. Especially in the this method is the utmost a family like Lauraceae of it is the for importance, as practically only way establishing various the specific identity or non-identity of the fruiting and in flowering branches, which their vegetative characters are often similar.

Niedenzu in his monograph o£ the Malpighiaceae includes the diagnostic characters of the varieties in his description of the this however species. In paper the description of the species is based on the var.

In the course of this study appeared however that and be found glandular eglandular sepals may the flowers of the even in same tree (see: Byrsonima coriacea). taxonomic value be attached Consequently no great can to the absence of these and in the enumeration presence or glands of the specimens I have indicated the two forms therefore and merely as: glandless gland bearing.

The sole difference lies in the tomentum, which is sericeous in M. macrodisca and tomentose in M. anisopetaLa. The difference in the form of the leaf, to which Niedenzu draws the attention, viz. leaves usually obtuse- cuspidate-acuminate in M. macrodisca, acuminate or in M. of apiculate anisopetala are fluctuating nature. Of still 5 less importance is the diameter of the wings and I have not been able to confirm his statement that the glands of the sepals than of M. macrodisca are less free those of M. anisopetala. not macrodisca. Niedenzu did see flowers of M. A specimen with flower buds from Bolivia (Buchtien n. 1799) shows that the flowers the those of M. too are exactly same as anisopetala. Mascagnia anisopetala (Juss.)

Darwiniana, nueva serie 9(1): 39-54. Malpighiaceae constitutes a family of 77 genera and ca. 1300 species, distributed in tropical and subtropical regions of both hemispheres. They are mainly diversified in the American continent and distributed in a wide range of habitats and altitudinal gradients. For this reason, this family can be a model plant group to ecological and biogeographical analyses, as well as evolutive studies. In this context, an analysis of distribution, richness, endemism and phylogenetic diversity of Malpighiaceae in natural regions and their altitudinal gradients was undertaken. Malpighiaceae are represented in Colombia by 34 genera and 246 species (19.1% of endemism). Thus, Colombia and Brazil (44 genera, 584 species, 61% of endemism) are the two richest countries on species of this family. The highest species richness and endemism in Colombia is found in the lowlands (0-500 m a.s.l.: 212 species, 28 endemics); only ten species are distributed on highlands (2500-3200 m a.s.l.). Of the Malpighiaceae species in Colombia, Heteropterys leona and Stigmaphyllon bannisterioides have a disjunct amphi-Atlantic distribution, and six other species show intra-American disjunctions.

  • Revision of Mezia (Malpighiaceae)
    EDINBURGH JOURNAL OF BOTANY 75 (3): 321–376 (2018) 321 © Trustees of the Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh (2018) doi: 10.1017/S096042861800015X REVISION OF MEZIA (MALPIGHIACEAE) C. Anderson1 & W. R. Anderson† The Neotropical genus Mezia (Malpighiaceae) comprises 15 species of lianas (except M. huberi W.R.Anderson, a shrub or small tree). All have multibranched, densely brown-sericeous inflorescences with the ultimate unit a 4-flowered umbel of bilaterally symmetrical flowers. The distinctive pair of large cymbiform bracteoles subtends a rudimentary pedicel and encloses the floral bud. The flowers contain elongate sepals, the lateral four biglandular, yellow petals, the posterior often splotched with red, a heteromorphic androecium, and a tricarpellate gynoecium. The three styles are all free; the posterior pair is lyrate in five species but erect in the others. The samaras havean orbicular to oblate lateral wing and a much smaller dorsal wing; in most species, additional winglets and/or crests are present between the lateral and dorsal wings. Only Mezia mariposa W.R.Anderson has butterfly-shaped samaras lacking additional ornamentation. Four new species are proposed: Mezia andersonii C.E.Anderson, M. bahiana C.E.Anderson, M. fanshawei C.E.Anderson and M. sericea C.E.Anderson. One variety is elevated to species level and provided with a new name, Mezia peruviana C.E.Anderson; a lectotype is chosen for Diplopterys involuta var. ovata Nied. Full descriptions and synonymies are provided, as well as a distribution map. All species are illustrated. Keywords. Christianella clade, lianas, Malpighiaceae, Mezia, Panama, South America.

More than a decade after the PLANAFORO program concluded, the aim of the present work is to recover and share the information from the long-abandoned plant collections made during the project’s ecological-economic zoning phase. Most of the material analyzed was sterile, but the fertile voucher specimens recovered are listed here. The material examined represents 378 species in 234 genera and 76 families of angiosperms. Some 8 genera, 68 species, 3 subspecies and 1 variety are new records for Rondônia State.

Two new species from the Brazilian Atlantic rainforest of Espírito Santo State, Licaria spiritusanctensis and Ocotea teresae, are described and illustrated. Their putative relationships within the respective genera are discussed. We also provide illustrations and comments on micromorphological and anatomical features of leaves of these new species, comparing them to those of congenerics and showing that they can be useful for recognition of different taxa. Keywords: leaf cuticle, leaf vascular bundle, Licaria, Ocotea, taxonomy In this study, two new species are described respectively published a synopsis of the genus, proposing its subdivision for Licaria Aubl. and Ocotea Aubl.
