We document its first report in the Americas and the first report of the genus in +Brazil +. According to +Randeria (1960) +, eFloras (2008), and + +Pornpongrungrueng +et al. +(2016) + +, the species is commonly found in dry fields, on hillslopes, along roadsides, on old walls, and in other disturbed and anthropic areas. In +Brazil +, the species was found, so far, in urban and rural disturbed areas in the state of +Goiás +, specifically in the municipalities of Goiânia and Bela Vista de +Goiás +(Roselândia district) ( +Figure 2 +). + + +Phenology:— +Specimens in florets and fruits were collected between July and September, which is the dry season in the Cerrado biome. + + + + +FIGURE 1. + +Blumea axillaris +. + +A. +Apical part of the plant with the upper leaves and capitulescence. +B. +Basal part of the plant with the lower leaves. +C. +Taproot. +D. +Variation of the leaf blade. +E. +Detail of the capitulescence. +F. +Disciform capitulum. +G. +Capitulum dispersing the cypselae. +H. +Capitulum with the convex and alveolate receptacle after releasing the cypselae. +I. +Florets in detail, the outer filiform and pistillate floret (on the right-hand side) and the inner tubulose and bisexual floret (on the left-hand side). +A.–I. +by A.M. Teles. + + + + +FIGURE 2. +Geographical distribution map showing the distribution of + +Blumea axillaris + +in Brazil. + + + + +Discussion:— +A single specimen of + +Blumea axillaris + +was observed and collected in 2021, making it the first record of this species in +Brazil +. In 2022, new collections of the species were made near the area where it was initially recorded, with a remarkable increase in frequency and broader dispersion of the original population. In 2023, the species was collected again, with a significant increase in population and a notable dispersion of them. As stated by +Nesom (1983) +, all species of the genus have an efficient mechanism for anemochorous dispersal facilitated by the pappus. +Randeria (1960) +noted that the genus is expanding its geographic range. This was supported by the records of + +Blumea + +from places where it had not been previously reported. The origin of + +B. axillaris + +in the Americas remains unknown, with questions on how and when it was introduced. It may be impossible to determine the exact date of the dispersal event that introduced + +B. axillaris + +to the Americas. However, the first author’s observations over the past twenty-five years, especially in +Brazil +, strongly suggest a recent introduction since older specimens than the current ones were not found up to now. Nevertheless, we can make some hypotheses. The less likely one is the natural dispersion by migratory water birds. The more plausible scenario is the facilitation of diaspore dispersion through contamination linked to animal fur or human clothing, along with the importation of potted plants, crop seeds, or agricultural machinery as discussed by +Davies & Sheley (2007) +. In any case, this record serves as a warning since it is an invasive exotic species that, by all indications, has already become well-established as a weed and can represent significant challenges for agriculture and the environment. In +Brazil +, +Inuleae +is represented by 22 species grouped into five genera ( + +Monge +et al. +2017 + +, +Monge & Semir 2024 +). Considering the new record reported in this work, the number of genera of the tribe +Inuleae +in +Brazil +increases to six and the number of species to 23. + + + + \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/03/CB/87/03CB87A3C53C7825FF28DED2FDF7FE58.xml b/data/03/CB/87/03CB87A3C53C7825FF28DED2FDF7FE58.xml index fb8a84b52a1..cae2d281bfd 100644 --- a/data/03/CB/87/03CB87A3C53C7825FF28DED2FDF7FE58.xml +++ b/data/03/CB/87/03CB87A3C53C7825FF28DED2FDF7FE58.xml @@ -1,92 +1,95 @@ - - - -Trichoderma azadirachtae sp. nov. from rhizosphere soil of Azadirachta indica from Guangdong Province, China + + + +Trichoderma azadirachtae sp. nov. from rhizosphere soil of Azadirachta indica from Guangdong Province, China - - -Author + + +Author -Huang, Qiu-Rong -0009-0006-0979-3264 -Innovative Institute for Plant Health, Zhongkai University of Agriculture and Engineering / Key Laboratory of Fruit and Vegetable Green Prevention and Control in South China, Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs, Guangzhou 510225, P.

It has been collected only in the Serra do Rola-Moça State Park, which is located in the municipalities of Belo Horizonte, Brumadinho, Ibirité, and Nova Lima ( +Fig. 3 +). This lithophyte species frequently occurs at an elevation from 1350 to 1430 meters on slopes in ironstone ecosystems, characterized by shallow, acidic, oligotrophic soils containing high concentrations of metallic minerals, mainly iron (see + +Carmo +et al. +2018 + +). These unique soils develop from iron formations, in this case, ferruginous phyllite [Itabira Group, Cauê Formation] ( + +Carmo +et al. +2018 + +). + +Microlicia ferricola + +was collected with flowers and fruits in July and August. + + +The populations of + +M +. +ferricola + +are exclusively inside a conservation area maintained and managed by the +Minas Gerais +government ( +Fig. 3 +). Despite its restricted AOO and EOO ( +4 km +2 +), + +M +. +ferricola + +occurs in a preserved habitat with no disturbances and has populations with a moderate number of individuals. Then, we consider this species as Least Concern (LC) based on IUCN criteria (2022). However, it is imperative to recognize that the surrounding areas adjacent to this protected unit are under significant threat mainly due to extensive mining activities, which has led to a persistent degradation of the quality of the vegetation habitat (see + +Jacobi +et al. +2007 + +). Numerous efforts have been made to draw the attention of relevant authorities to address the mounting biodiversity loss within the Iron Quadrangle, often driven by specific and private interests, but with little success (see +Carmo & Kamino 2023 +). + + + + +FIGURE 3. +Occurrence map of + +Microlicia ferricola +Versiane, M.J.R.Rocha & R.Romero + +at Serra do Rola-Moça State Park, in the Iron Quadrangle, Minas Gerais, Brazil. + + + + +Etymology: +—The specific epithet + +ferricola + +is from the Latin words +ferreus +(= iron) and +-cola +(= dweller) [see +Stearn 1983 +], referencing the iron-rich soil of the Iron Quadrangle where this new species occurs. + + +Taxonomic Notes: +— + +Microlicia ferricola + +shares similarities with three species: + +M +. +longicalycina +R.Romero + +in +Romero & Castro (2014: 1177) +, + +M +. +trichocalycina +De Candolle (1828: 120) + +, and + +M +. +woodgyeriana +R.Romero & Paranhos + +in + +Romero +et al. +(2021b: 444) + +. Like + +M +. +ferricola + +, these species are also endemic to +Minas Gerais state +( +Romero & Castro 2014 +; + +Romero +et al. +2021 +b + +, 2024). They all have pentamerous flowers with pink petals, bicolored androecium with dimorphic stamens and tetrasporangiate anthers, three-locular ovary, deciduous sepals in the mature fruits, and fruits with basipetal dehiscence and deciduous collumelas. + +Microlicia ferricola + +and + +M +. +longicalycina + +also share lanceolate to elliptic-lanceolate leaves with acute apices and entire margins with glandular trichomes. However, + +M. longicalycina + +has leaves with light green margins (see +Romero & Castro 2014 +) ( +vs. +entirely green or green-reddish in + +M +. +ferricola + +) with setose trichomes ( +vs. +only glandular), and long linear-triangular sepals ([ +4–6 mm +long] +vs. +triangular [ +1.8‒2 mm +long]). Additionally, + +M +. +longicalycina + +is exclusive to the Diamantina municipality and commonly found in the Biribiri State Park ( +Romero & Castro 2014 +). + +Microlicia ferricola + +and + +M +. +woodgyeriana + +exhibit elliptic-lanceolate leaves and triangular sepals with entire margins, often with green-reddish to reddish indumentum. But + +M +. +woodgyeriana + +differs by its coriaceous leaves ( +vs. +chartaceous in + +M +. +ferricola + +), margins that are revolute ( +vs. +flat), and campanulate hypanthia ( +vs. +campanulate-oblong). + +Microlicia woodgyeriana + +is endemic to northern +Minas Gerais +, specifically found in the Serra do Bota municipality of Itacambira ( + +Romero +et al. +2021b + +). + +Microlicia ferricola + +and + +M +. +trichocalycina + +have lanceolate to elliptic-lanceolate leaves with very short petioles.

The extent of occurrence (EOO) falls within the limits for the Vulnerable status under sub-criterion B1. This loss of forest patches as +a major +threat leads us to predict a continuing decline in extent and quality of habitat, as well as number of mature individuals. By considering this threat, the species occurs at six locations, where all individuals can be severely affected by it.

The German botanist Ignatz Urban (in April of 1894, and also in +Urban 1894 +–1895) and one of us (EJL in 2005) made annotations on the +type +collection stating that it was not +Myrtaceae +and suggested +Melastomataceae +. The +type +specimens of + +M. melastomoides + +has acrodromous, 3-plinerved leaf venation not exclusive to +Melastomataceae +, a character that is also found in other groups such as + +Strychnos +Linnaeus (1753: 189) + +from +Loganiaceae +, with ca. 80 species in the Neotropics ( + +Setubal +et al +. 2021 + +). The +type +material has other features similar to + +Strychnos + +such as an interpetiolar line (very thin in this case) and a panicle-like inflorescence. However, + +M. melastomoides + +lacks other important diagnostic characters of + +Strychnos + +such as: nodes conspicuous by thickened and woody petiole bases that support axillary branches after the leaves have fallen (vs. nodes not thickened and the bases of the petioles attached to the fallen leaves leaving circular scars in the twigs) and branches usually with tendrils or other innovations typical of the lianescent species of + +Strychnos + +(vs. tendrils absent) ( + +Setubal +et al +. 2021 + +). Furthermore, the subsessile leaves, the axillary inflorescences with long internodes and the small fruits, ca. +0.5 cm +in diameter, with thin and smooth pericarp present in + +M. melastomoides + +are incompatible with other species of + +Strychnos + +with axillary inflorescences that occur in the Caribbean and nearby continental regions. For these reasons, the species remains in + +Myrcia + +as it is the only available name.

Igatimi ( +Canindeyú +, Villa Ygatimi), “in pratis silvaticis”, +December 1856 +. +Parodi s.n. +(not found). + + + + +The vernacular Guarani name cited by Parodi for this species, + +ñandu-apysa + +, meaning “ema ears” is usually applied to + +Campomanesia guazumifolia + +( +Cambessèdes 1832 +–1833: 280) O. +Berg (1855 +–1856: 434) ( +Berg 1857 +–1859, +Landrum 1986 +, + +Dujak +et al +. 2015 + +). However, + +Campomanesia guazumifolia + +is a tree, with leaves that are covered with a dense indumentum of long trichomes, and fruits crowned by a circular scar due to the deciduous calyx lobes ( +Landrum 1986 +, + +Lima +et al +. 2011 + +). Parodi’s description eliminates the possibility of it being this species (see below). + + +Comparing the description of + +Myrcia nandu-apysa + +to other species of + +Campomanesia + +known to grow in +Paraguay +( +Landrum 1986 +, +Sobral 2003 +, + +Lima +et al +. 2011 + +) allowed us to speculate that it might be a superfluous name for + +Campomanesia aurea +O. +Berg (1857 + +–1859: 454). The description of + +M. nandu-apysa + +as a glabrous shrub, with sessile leaves, few lateral veins, pale yellow venation that forms a reticulum, major veins covered with glands, as well as solitary flowers with ovaries with 9 locules and small fruits ( +1.3 cm +) with rounded, persistent calyx lobes is a good match for this species that occurs in +Canindeyú +, although not recorded from Villa Ygatimi. Parodi noted that “ + +Species homonyma ex +Cordillera +diversa + +”, i.e., recognizing that this name was used for another species. Two morphological characters described by Parodi for + +M. nandu-apysa + +are somewhat discordant with + +C. aurea + +. The first is that the leaves of + +M. nandu-apysa + +are stated to be up to +3 inches +long (c. +7.5 cm +). +Landrum (1986) +recorded a maximum leaf length of +5.6 cm +for + +C. aurea + +in his review of the genus and + +Lima +et al +. (2011) + +a maximum length of +5.5 cm +in +Paraná state +( +Brazil +). We also searched images in online herbaria for possible recent specimens of + +C. aurea + +with larger leaves, but the longest leaf found was still slightly below +6 cm +. However, leaves can vary significantly in size and if Parodi was describing the species from live plants he might have included measurements of basal, larger leaves that collectors often do not include, as they usually cut several centimetres above ground. The second (possibly) discordant character is that Parodi describes the fruits of + +M. nandu-apysa + +as green when mature, while the fruits of + +C. aurea + +are yellow or orange when mature ( +Landrum 1986 +, +Sobral 2003 +). Due to these inconsistencies and the absence of any Parodi’s specimen, the species remains in + +Myrcia + +as an unknown name. + + + + \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/97/58/87/975887CDFB02FFF2F0A5C9C2FA7EFB5B.xml b/data/97/58/87/975887CDFB02FFF2F0A5C9C2FA7EFB5B.xml new file mode 100644 index 00000000000..0dc73dfec68 --- /dev/null +++ b/data/97/58/87/975887CDFB02FFF2F0A5C9C2FA7EFB5B.xml @@ -0,0 +1,575 @@ + + + +Ceratostema gualaquizensis (Ericaceae: Vaccinieae), a new species from Ecuador known from previously misidentified specimens and new insights on Ceratostema loucianae + + + +Author + +Jiménez, Marco M. +0000-0002-9502-5651 +Grupo de Investigación en Medio Ambiente y Salud (BIOMAS), Ingeniería en Agroindustria, Facultad de Ingenierías y Ciencias Aplicadas, Universidad de Las Américas, Vía a Nayón, Quito 170124, Ecuador +marco.jimenez.leon@udla.edu.ec + + + +Author + +Iturralde, Gabriel A. +0000-0003-2456-0929 +Grupo de Investigación en Medio Ambiente y Salud (BIOMAS), Ingeniería en Agroindustria, Facultad de Ingenierías y Ciencias Aplicadas, Universidad de Las Américas, Vía a Nayón, Quito 170124, Ecuador +gabriel.iturralde@udla.edu.ec + + + +Author + +Kuethe, J.

The species is known only from the eastern Andean foothills surrounding the towns of Macas ( + +Cornejo +et al. +2024 + +), Limón, Santiago de Méndez, Sucúa and Zamora at elevations between +1100–1400 m +, where it grows both in primary forests and in disturbed secondary areas ( +Figure 6 +). + + +Additional specimens were observed +8.5 km +northwest of Macas, +8 km +south of Sucúa and +3.6 km +northwest of Limón and were vouchered with photographs ( +Figure 6 +). In the area of Santiago de Méndez, the species was found in pastures growing epiphytically on relict trees of + +Pouteria caimito +( +Ruiz & Pavón 1802: 18 +) Radlkofer (1882: 333) + +( +Sapotaceae +) and + +Protium +sp. + +( +Burseraceae +). Near Zamora it was seen growing on phorophytes of + +Alchornea +sp. + +, + +Centronia laurifolia +Don (1823: 314) + +, + +Graffenrieda +sp. + +and + +Protium +sp. + +within its natural habitat, it has been seen on tree branches from near the canopy to the understory (up to +2 m +aboveground). + + + +Conservation status +:— + +This species is currently known only from 11 localities across south-eastern +Ecuador +. The Extent of Occurrence (EOO) calculated for the species +resulted +in an area of +1,650 km +2 +with an area of occupancy (AOO) of +32 km +2 +. This scales + +C. loucianae + +as EN (Endangered) according to IUCN (2022) criteria B2ab(i,ii), focusing on restricted distribution and stability of habitat. + + + +Ceratostema loucianae + +has been registered only in the lower part of the Sangay National Park ( + +Cornejo +et al. +2024 + +), the buffer zone of the Podocarpus National Park and the surrounding area of the Río Negro-Sopladora National Park. Nevertheless, the populations outside these areas are highly threatened by deforestation in favor of cattle pastures, slash-and-burn agriculture and infrastructure activities. + + +Ex situ +, the species is being sold by nurseries in +Ecuador +and is known in private collections and commercial nurseries in the +United States +, Europe and Asia under incorrect names such as “ + +Ceratostema villosa + +” and “ + +Ceratostema rauhii +var. +villosa + +”. + + + +Notes +:— + + +Ceratostema loucianae + +is similar to + +C. rauhii + +(1992: 314), + +C. glans +Luteyn (1996: 54) + +and + +C. lanigera +( +Sleumer 1941: 398 +) Luteyn (1984: 367) + +by the epiphytic habit, the vegetative and floral parts variously covered with indumentum, the plinerved leaves that are arranged in a spiral manner, the axillary to supraxillary inflorescences that are sessile to short-pedunculate and the red colored corollas with triangular, spreading to slightly recurved, acuminate lobes (being black in + +C. loucianae + +and the two latter species).

Map prepared using ArcGIS by Henry X. GarzónSuárez. + + + + +FIGURE 3. + +Ceratostema gualaquizensis + +in situ. Photos by Henry X. Garzón-Suárez. + + + + + +Distribution and habitat +:— + + +Ceratostema gualaquizensis + +is known only from two localities near Gualaquiza in southern +Morona-Santiago Province +, +Ecuador +. The +type +locality of the new species is located near Nueva Tarqui and another individual was observed +15 km +northwest of the mentioned locality ( +Figure 2 +). The new species is found growing epiphytically on trees of + +Celtis iguanaea +( +Jacquin 1760: 16 +) +Sargent (1895: 64) + +( +Cannabaceae +), + +Protium +sp. + +( +Burseraceae +), + +Piptocoma discolor +( +Kunth 1818: 35–36 +) +Pruski (1996: 97) + +( +Asteraceae +) and + +Tachigali +sp. + +( +Fabaceae +). It grows in the branches near the tree canopy in primary forests and relict trees near pastures ( +Figure 3 +). + + + + +Conservation status and illegal export from +Ecuador + +:— + +At the moment, the new species has not been found in any protected area, but rather it has been registered only in the buffer zone of the Runahurco Municipal Conservation Ecological Area (AECMR) ( +Figure 2 +). The habitat of + +Ceratostema gualaquizensis + +is threatened by deforestation for livestock activities. + + +This species is presently known only from two localities near the town of Gualaquiza in south-eastern +Ecuador +. The Extent of Occurrence (EOO) calculated for the new +species +resulted in an area of +15 km +2 with an +area +of occupancy (AOO) of +20 km +2. This scales + +Ceratostema gualaquizensis + +as CR (Critically Endangered) following IUCN (2022) criteria B2ab(i,ii) and C, evidenced by its very restricted distribution and very few specimens known to represent this species. In addition, the close vicinity to the town of Gualaquiza and its urban expansion means great uncertainty to the longevity of the habitats, especially given the stress imposed by the discovery of mining in the area. + + +This species is sold by nurseries in +Ecuador +and is known in private collections and commercial nurseries in the +United States +, Europe and Asia under the erroneous name “ + +Ceratostema pendens + +”. What appears to be an “honest mistake” due to the complicated taxonomy of this group of plants is addressed by several authors as a conscious and predetermined practice (Parra-Sánchez +et al. +2004, + +Yeager +et al. +2020 + +). These practices are not limited to just one plant family and have been most commonly reported in plants of the +Orchidaceae +family illegally exported during the last decades using permits, including CITES, of other species. Such is the case of + +Dracula trigonopetala +Meyer & Baquero ex Doucette + +in +Doucette (2012: 59) +, + +Scaphosepalum luanneae +Baquero (2019: 272) + +, + +Scaphosepalum tarantula +Baquero & Hirtz + +in + +Baquero +et al. +(2018: 231) + +and + +Trisetella pachycaudata +Mogrovejo-Herrera & Baquero + +in Baquero & Mogrovejo (2021: 272) where the authors already mention the illegal export of new species from +Ecuador +as a common practice. By having these ornamental plants at a certain price on the market for ornamental purposes, illegal collections put the natural populations of these species at risk. + + + + +Etymology:— +This new species is named after Gualaquiza, the name of the township and municipality where the new species was found. + + + +Taxonomic discussion +:— + + +Ceratostema gualaquizensis + +is most similar to + +C. pendens + +by sharing its long-pendent branches; the spirally arranged leaves with very short petioles; the convex blades, of which the sides are involute at the base; the sessile inflorescences and the axillary flowers with corollas expanding slightly distally. The new species can be distinguished from the latter by the smaller, non-amplexicaul leaves, measuring 3.9–6.0 × +2.2–2.5 cm +( +vs. +amplexicaul, 7.0–10.0 × 4.0–7.0 cm); the leaf base obtuse ( +vs. +deeply cordate and auriculate); the inflorescence exclusively 1-flowered ( +vs. +1–4-flowered); the ovate-triangular and acuminate bracteoles ( +vs. +ovate and acute); the calyx with a longer turbinate hypanthium, +3.9–4.2 mm +long ( +vs. +obconic, +2.7–3.5 mm +long), the magenta and tubular corolla that is sparsely puberulous in the apical half ( +vs. +dark maroon, cylindric and short-pilose throughout) with narrowly linear-triangular and acuminate, recurved lobes ( +vs. +narrowly-triangular, long-acuminate and straight lobes) having black ( +vs. +dark maroon) apices and the shorter thecae (up to +5.1 mm +long +vs. +ca. 7.0 mm long) ( +Luteyn 2005 +). Another relevant feature observed in + +C. gualaquizensis + +is the leaves abaxially green ( +vs +. suffused with purple) and the glabrous style ( +vs. +pilose) in + +C. pendens + +( +Figure 4 +). + + + + \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/C8/35/87/C83587A1740A3B541F8374B9FBB4FE62.xml b/data/C8/35/87/C83587A1740A3B541F8374B9FBB4FE62.xml new file mode 100644 index 00000000000..5021abb38f1 --- /dev/null +++ b/data/C8/35/87/C83587A1740A3B541F8374B9FBB4FE62.xml @@ -0,0 +1,215 @@ + + + +Chalaropsis pruni sp. nov.
