Large clades of angiosperms are often characterized by diverse interactions with pollinators, but how these pollination systems structured phylogenetically and biogeographically is still uncertain for most families. Apocynaceae a clade >5300 species worldwide distribution. A database representing >10 % in the family was used to explore diversity pollinators evolutionary shifts across major regions. The compiled from published unpublished reports. Plants were categorized into broad then...

O estudo da biologia foi feito uma planalto Campinas, São Paulo. alata, P. amethystina e miersii apresentam flores cor púrpura a violeta corona variegada. As são diurnas, perfumadas, autoincompatíveis polinizadas por abelhas grande porte. diferem alata apresentarem filamentos livres no opérculo, que é horizontal denticulado.

With the recent taxonomic review of Chaetostoma DC., it was found that six species did not present set diagnostic features established to delimit genus. is characterized by sessile, keeled subkeeled, overlapping, acute leaves and a trichome crown on external apex length hypanthium. Three are transferred Microlicia D. Don: M. acuminata Naudin (C. acuminatum (Naudin) Cogniaux), castrata castratum oxyanthera oxyantherum Triana). Two new names also proposed: baumgratziana A. B. Martins &...
Biotic invasion in mutualistic communities is of particular interest due to the possible establishment new relationships with native species. Ficus species are widely cultivated as ornamental plants, and they host specific chalcid wasps that strictly associated fig inflorescences. Some introduced capable establishing local wasps, wasp may also be concomitantly their plants. Ficusbenjamina L. across world, but not reported outside range. We describe for first time a non-pollinating...
Chaetostoma hexapetalum, a new species from Chapada dos Veadeiros, Goias state, in the central-western region of Brazil, is described and illustrated. This can be easily differentiated its congeners by combination following characters: presence sixmerous flowers, four-locular ovary, fruits with slight apical prolongation, two glandular trichomes between opposite leaves. Images seeds made scanning electron microscopy, photos field, distribution map are presented. A key to occurring de...
is a laticiferous climbing vine, with showy yellow flowers an infundibuliform corolla and cylindrical tube
ABSTRACT This is the first record of Bradysia sp. as a pollinator Ditassa banksii Schult.. fly usually becomes trapped in flower and die, but it carries out pollination too. It common to find fragments insects bodies or dead individuals flowers Asclepiadoideae. However, this report inserting pollinia.
Temnadenia odorifera is an endemic species from the Brazilian Atlantic Forest.This study was developed in order to identify volatile compounds emitted by living flowers and nectar, evaluate temporal pattern of scent emission, sugars composition its nectar.Analyses flower dynamic headspace vivo, nectar sugar studies on floral biology were performed.Twenty-three identified scent.The total amount odor varied significantly throughout anthesis, ranging 10232.7 ng g -1 (9 12 h) 620.2 (15 18...

Palicourea guianensis e P. marcgravii possuem inflorescências flores de colorido vivo. Suas são tubulares polinizadas por beija-flores, mas elas visitadas também borboletas. Estas apresentam odor suave com o método do vermelho neutro tubo da corola ficou corado. É possível que seja um caso síndrome polinização mista ou a emissão seria uma característica ancestral dentro linhagem filogenética.
Four new combinations in Chaetosto¬ ma (C.albiflorum, C. cupressinum, selagineum, stenocladon,) are proposed, and a species, Chaetostoma flavum , endemic to the Chapada dos Veadeiros, Goids, Brazil, is described.Tbe species can be distinguished by its 4-5-locular ovary antisepalous stamens with prolonged ap¬ pendages.Chaetostoma DC. genus Brazil comprising 1 that occur campo rupestre, de altitude, cerrado vegeta¬ tion states of Distrito Federal, Minas Gerais, less considerable representation...
Abstract The Botanical Garden of the Museu Nacional/Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro (Rio Janeiro, RJ, Brazil) was investigated monthly from October, 2017 to December, 2019 in a total 27 collections, each lasting four hours, following methodology random walking. Vegetative and reproductive organs herbs, bushes trees (up 2 m high) were examined by two people. Voucher material deposited Entomological Collection Nacional (MNRJ)/Universidade Janeiro. We found 13 insect gall morphotypes...
