Koelerioid grasses (subtribe Aveninae, tribe Poeae; Pooideae) resolve into two major clades, here called Koelerioid Clades A and B. Phylogenetic relationships among koelerioid grasses are investigated using plastid DNA sequences of rpl32-trnL, rps16-trnK, rps16 intron, and ITS regions, focusing on Trisetum, Acrospelion, and some annual species (Ros...

During the journey through Portugal by Hoffmannsegg and Link (1797–1801), these authors collected an appreciable number of specimens, most of which have been lost. Their collections are relevant since they were used by themselves or by other authors to describe numerous species. In the herbarium of the Real Jardín Botánico of Madrid, 70 specimens f...

A synthetic synopsis of the herbaria of the 16th century is provided. The list is in chronological order and resumes the general information on the earliest herbaria from the XVI century facilitating the access by the scientific community to this important source of historical information. Fifteen herbaria are listed, of which the oldest date back...

To investigate the evolutionary relationships and biogeographical history among the species of Calamagrostis and other members of subtribe Agrostidinae, Calothecinae, Echinopogoninae, and Paramochloinae, we generated a phylogeny based on DNA sequences from one nuclear ribosomal and three plastid areas (ITS, rpl32‐trnL spacer, rps16‐trnK spacer, and...

As a consequence of the ongoing studies that we are carrying out about the Spanish botanist Casimiro Gómez Ortega, we have reviewed the nomenclatural history of Genista micranta and we propose the typification of this name on a drawing as well as an epitype collected at the same locality of the locotypic indication, as there are no other materials...

This chapter of Flora iberica includes all the species of the genus Rostraria Trin. (Poaceae) that grow spontaneously in the Iberian Peninsula and the Balearic Islands. The identification of these species is facilitated by means of a key and it is offered for each one of them: the scientific name considered correct and its synonyms, its morphologic...

Se citan por primera vez 38 taxones de flora para la provincia de Murcia (España). Entre los más relevantes, debido a su rareza o singular distribución, destacan Astragalus guttatus o Frankenia composita. Además, se indican 7 especies alóctonas, en su mayoría, potencialmente invasoras. Se incluyen datos sobre la distribución y ecología de todos ell...

As taxonomists who have embraced the amalgamation of traditional and modern research techniques, we have witnessed dramatic changes and the gradual disappearance of one of the oldest disciplines in biological science, that is, taxonomy and the associated application of nomenclature. In this note we address some of the causes and effects behind redu...

Plantas vasculares de la Península Ibérica e Islas Baleares. Fam. Gramineae, primera parte

Based on a molecular DNA phylogeny of three plastid (rpl32-trnK, rps16 intron, and rps16-trnK) and nuclear ITS regions investigating 32 species of Agrostidinae, we describe two new genera, Agrostula gen. nov. with a single species and Alpagrostis gen. nov. with four species; provide support for five species in a monophyletic Podagrostis; and includ...

The high diversification rates of plant lineages in the Mediterranean Basin hotspot have been linked to a complex interaction of climatic stressors, geographic isolation and soil type, but the question remains as to which of these factors has been the most significant environmental driver of recent speciation. Here, we draw on distributional data f...

Se ofrece el catálogo de las localidades mencionadas por J. Quer y C. Gómez Ortega en los 6 volúmenes de la Flora española

The Iberian Peninsula and the Balearic Islands are home to 1823 endemic taxa of vascular plants (nearly a quarter of total flora), half of which are narrowly distributed. Here, we explore the ecological traits related to endemism and rarity, and identify the variables other than range size associated with the conservation status. As found in other...

Since 1753 the description of vascular plants has been highly uneven. Given its high levels of plant endemism and long botanical history, the Iberian Peninsula is considered a suitable territory to study the species discovery process. Anova tests were conducted to explore the differences on the description dates for categories of range size and lif...

To investigate the evolutionary relationships among the species of Trisetum and other members of subtribe Koeleriinae a phylogeny based on DNA sequences from four gene regions (ITS, rpl32‐trnL spacer, rps16‐trnK spacer, and rps16 intron) is presented. The analyses, including type species of all genera in Koeleriinae (Acrospelion, Avellinia, Cinnagr...

Detailed morphometric descriptions, illustrations, distribution maps, an identification key, and habitat data are given for each taxon. Morphometric variation of the main characters is...

Reliable plant species identification from seeds is intrinsically difficult due to the scarcity of features and because it requires specialized expertise that is becoming increasingly rarer, as the number of field plant taxonomists is diminishing (Bacher 2012, Haas and Häuser 2005). On the other hand, seed identification is relevant in some science...

We examine various aspects of Joseph Quer's Flora espanõla (1762-1764, 1784), taking into consideration the contributions made by Casimiro Gómez Ortega and proposing that he be credited as a co-author on the last two volumes of the work. Flora espanõla comprises 2602 species, 2493 of which are vascular plants, including both wild and cultivated spe...

An historical review of the Iberian flora is presented here to give a summary of the main milestones from the fourteenth century until today.

The Iberian flora has a high degree of originality (1328 endemic species, 24% of endemism), comparable to other regions in the Mediterranean Basin. The richness of Iberian endemic species is unevenly distributed; the greatest diversity is found in the main mountain ranges although the southwestern Atlantic coast and specially the Balearic Islands a...

The taxonomic complexity of the Senecio doria group (Compositae, Senecioneae) is reflected in the heterogeneous treatments that have been proposed and the poor knowledge of some species. This species group consists of perennial herbs distributed in Europe, western and central Asia, and northwestern Africa. The first worldwide revision of this group...

Nakai (1909a) described var. pseudopratense under Geranium yesoense Franch. & Sav., but soon corrected the name to var. pseudo-palustre (Nakai 1909b). According to the ICN Art. 51.1, this change is not allowed, and var. pseudopratense must be maintained. Nakai did not cite specimens when he described G. yesoense var. pseudopratense, or when he chan...

The complexity of the evolutionary history of Senecio is reflected in its conflicted taxonomy. Within this genus, Senecio section Crociseris (Compositae, Senecioneae), a group of perennial herbs distributed in Europe, western and Central Asia, and northwestern Africa, was not fully revised.
