Biological Sciences Faculty Publications

Species descriptions and a key for the nine species of Elaphoglossum (Dryopteridaceae) in French Polynesia are provided. Three new species are described: E. austromarquesense from the southern Marquesas Islands, E. florencei from Raiatea and Moorea, and E. meyeri from Rapa. Each species is illustrated by a line drawing of the habit, and spore images using a scanning electron microscope. Images of scales, one of the most important diagnostic characters in the genus, are also included. © 2008 The Linnean Society of London.

Comparative Morphological, Anatomical, And Palynological Studies On The Genus Stachys L. Sect. Ambleia Bentham (Lamiaceae) Species In Turkey, Muhi̇tti̇n Di̇nç, Meryem Öztürk Jan 2008

Comparative Morphological, Anatomical, And Palynological Studies On The Genus Stachys L. Sect. Ambleia Bentham (Lamiaceae) Species In Turkey, Muhi̇tti̇n Di̇nç, Meryem Öztürk

Turkish Journal of Botany

In this study, comparative morphological, anatomical and palynological studies of Stachys L. sect. Ambleia Bentham species (Lamiaceae) in Turkey are carried out on the plants collected from their type localities. These species are Stachys cydni Kotschy ex Gemici & Leblebici and S. yildirimlii M. Dinç, which are highly local endemics. Morphologically, micromorphological features of the trichomes are studied. Trichome morphology appears to have a taxonomic value with respect to the results. The anatomical studies on cross-sections of stems, leaves, and surface sections of leaves are presented. According to the anatomical comparison between the 2 species, the pith structure of the …

A New Species Of Silene L. (Caryophyllaceae) From South Anatolia, Turkey, Yavuz Bağci Jan 2008

A New Species Of Silene L. (Caryophyllaceae) From South Anatolia, Turkey, Yavuz Bağci

Turkish Journal of Botany

Silene duralii Y. Bağcı sp. nov. from Ermenek-Kazancı (C4: Karaman province) is described and illustrated. It is closely related to S. capillipes Boiss. & Heldr., from which it differs mainly in its hairiness, leaves, and floral features. Diagnostic morphological characters are discussed and the diagnostic key for related Silene L. species, which are widespread in Turkey, is reorganized. The geographical distribution of the new species and other related species were mapped. Notes are also presented on its ecology, and biogeographical and conservation status. Chromosome count for S. duralii was 2n = 24. In addition, the seed coat surface of S. …
