Observations On Thamnidiaceae (Mucorales). Ii. Chaetocladium, Cokeromyces, Mycotypha, And Phascolomyces., Gerald L. Benny, R. K. Benjamin Sep 1976

Observations On Thamnidiaceae (Mucorales). Ii. Chaetocladium, Cokeromyces, Mycotypha, And Phascolomyces., Gerald L. Benny, R. K. Benjamin

Aliso: A Journal of Systematic and Floristic Botany

Four previously established genera of Thamnidiaceae and their recognized species are described and illustrated. Seven species are treated as follows: Chaetocladium jonesii, C. brefeldii, Cokeromyces recurvatus, Mycotypha africana, M. microspora, M. poitrasii (a new combination based on Cokeromyces poitrasii), and Phascolomyces articuloms. Phascolomyces articuloms, the type species of Phascolomyces, was described in 1959 without the preservation of a nomenclatural type as required by the International Code of Botanical Nomenclature, and original material is unknown. A neotype specimen is designated (preserved in RSA) for validation of the genus and species.


New Species Of Stylidium, And Notes On Stylidiaceae From Southwestern Australia, Sherwin Carlquist Sep 1976

New Species Of Stylidium, And Notes On Stylidiaceae From Southwestern Australia, Sherwin Carlquist

Aliso: A Journal of Systematic and Floristic Botany

Three new species of Stylidium from southwestern Australia are described. Stylidium noriscandens is most closely related to S. scanclens, of which it may be regarded as a northern sandplain vicariant with sufficient morphological difference for specific recognition, just as S. veiticillatum is a montane vicariant of S. scandens. Stylidium expeditionis is a new species known only from the Tutanning Reserve near Pingelly; it is in the section Squamosae, and several species can be cited as bearing relationship to it. Stylidium ricae is the name given to a plant of granitic outcrops near Morawa and Mullewa; it was formerly …


A Taxonomic And Ecologic Study Of The Riverbottom Forest On St. Mary River, Lee Creek, And Belly River In Southwestern Alberta, Canada, Robert K. Shaw Sep 1976

A Taxonomic And Ecologic Study Of The Riverbottom Forest On St. Mary River, Lee Creek, And Belly River In Southwestern Alberta, Canada, Robert K. Shaw

Great Basin Naturalist

The riverbottom forest community of St. Mary River, Lee Creek, and Belly River in southwestern Alberta, Canada, is a unique ecological entity characterized by poplar species having their major Alberta distribution along these streams. Stands in the community are dominated by three tree species, six shrub species, and nine herb species. Establishment of the community is dependent on climate and substrate; destruction is the result of progressive lateral stream-flow erosion. Soils are sandy loams above gravel, with pH values of 7.7 to 8.0 and soluble salt concentrations of 176 to 458 parts per million. Trees in mature stands averaged 23.0 …


The Streblid Batflies Of Venezuela (Diptera: Streblidae), Rupert L. Wenzel Jun 1976

The Streblid Batflies Of Venezuela (Diptera: Streblidae), Rupert L. Wenzel

Brigham Young University Science Bulletin, Biological Series

This study was based on more than 36,000 Venezuelan Streblidae representing ca. 115 species and species complexes in 22 genera, taken from more than 6,800 hats of 95 species. Two new genera are proposed and 45 new species are described. The morphology is briefly discussed and terminology is revised. Collection data are given for each species, together with discussions on variability and host relationships when pertinent. Keys to genera and species arc included, as well as illustrations of most species. Noctiliostrebla dubia (Rudow) and the male of Parastrebla handleyi Wenzel are characterized, and relationships of Speiseria are discussed. New Taxa– …
