Abstract Impatiens L. is one of the largest angiosperm genera, containing over 1000 species, and notorious for its taxonomic difficulty. Here, we present, to our knowledge, most comprehensive phylogenetic analysis genus date based on a total evidence approach. Forty‐six morphological characters, mainly obtained from own investigations, are combined with sequence data three genetic regions, including nuclear ribosomal ITS plastid atpB‐rbcL trnL‐F . We include 150 species representing all...

Abstract The genus Corydalis , with ca. 530 species, has long been considered taxonomically challenging because of its great variability. Previous molecular analyses, based on a few markers and incomplete taxonomic sampling, were clearly inadequate to delimit sections subgenera. We have performed phylogenetic analyses related taxa, using 65 shared protein‐coding plastid genes from 313 accessions (including 280 samples 226 species ) 152 universal low‐copy nuclear 296 271 covering all 42...
A reclassification of the tribe Sileneae compatible with molecular data is presented. The genus Eudianthe ( E. laeta and coeli‐rosa ) restored. Viscaria, Ixoca (= Heliosperma ), Atocion together form a well supported monophyletic group distinct from Silene Lychnis , are recognized at generic level. With Agrostemma Petrocoptis number genera in sums up to eight. new combinations samojedora, ajanensis, abyssinica, asterias, compacta, lerchenfeldiana rupestris made.

Summary It is emphasized that taxonomy concerns pattern and attempts to apply temporal aspects taxa, including species, are doomed lead unsolvable paradoxes. The species concepts have serious impacts on biological theory as the recognition of taxa confused with evolutionary processes. choice inclusiveness any Linnean taxon in principle arbitrary each particular case.

Cladistic analyses using parsimony jackknifing and Bayesian inference were performed to elucidate phylogenetic relationships in the genus Dionysia. DNA sequences from one nuclear region (ITS) two chloroplast genome regions (rps16 intron trnL‐trnF) used with without addition of a morphological character matrix. A total 43 species Primulaceae sequenced, including 39 The results strongly suggest that sister rest Dionysia are balsamea D. hissarica, not mira. No section subsection more than as...
Twenty-nine new species of Corydalis (Fumariaceae) from China, mainly Tibet, Sichuan and Yunnan, are described.
Impatiens pseudolaevigata from West Kameng district, Arunachal Pradesh, Northeast India, is newly described and illustrated. A detailed description, information on distribution ecology, colour photographs are provided for identification of the species.
Abstract— The karst area in South China is notable for its fragile vegetation and unique flora with many narrow endemic species, one of the most threatened biodiversity hotspots world. However, acid soil areas scattered have previously been underestimated. With a recent increase new discoveries plants animals, conservation these has become urgent. This study deals Impatiens longlinensis . species similar to I. yui lasiophyton having pubescence, two lateral sepals, funnelform lower sepal,...
Five new species of Fumariaceae from the Flora China area, viz. Hypecoum zhukanum (sect. Leptocarpae ), Dactylicapnos gaoligongshanensis D. leiosperma Minicalcara Corydalis laxiflora and C. tianshanica (subgenus Cremnocapnos sect. Strictae are described. burmanica comb. nov., grandifoliolata macrocapnos reported for first time, combinations ventii (basion.: Dicentra T. Khanh), schneideri Fedde) K. R. Stern) validated. Novelties in subgenus will be published separately.
The Dactylicapnos macrocapnos complex is revised, and D. platycarpa Lidén, odontocarpa Lidén subsp. echinosperma are recognised as new taxa. consists of a chain 4 vicariant taxa from northwestern India (Garhwal) to western Bhutan (Thimphu). cordata (eastern Nepal, Darjeeling) described contrasted with its close relative, the geographically disjunct burmanica (western Yunnan, Burma).
Twenty-three species and one subspecies of Corydalis DC. (Fumariaceae) from China Tibet are described as new to science: C. aeditua Lidén & Z. Y. Su, cheilosticta Su Lidén, cryptogama dolichocentra gymnopoda heterothylax Wu ex ischnosiphon jiulongensis lagochila longistyla lophophora madida mediterranea milarepa nematopoda nubicola papillosa procera sarcolepis sophronitis tenuipes virginea yaoi subsp. borealis Su. Six previously recognized subspecific taxa raised specific rank, three these...
Impatiens lixianensis, a new species of Balsaminaceae from Zhegushan, Lixian, Sichuan province, China, is described and illustrated. This closely related to I. apsotis in having small white greenish-white flowers, 2 lateral sepals, 1–2-flowered short racemes, but differs by its non-crested dorsal petals, 2-lobed swollen spur, long-clawed lower scale-shaped upper petals. Regarding palynological characters, the lumina reticulum lixianensis are smaller much more granulate than those apsotis.
