ABSTRACT Lemnoideae is a yet little known taxon in Brazil taxonomic and distributive terms, given the few records for country, especially Amazon region. Here, we present first record of Lemna minuta Kunth state Pará, providing description species, its occurrence Brazilian territory, additional comments. This contributes to expanding knowledge species’ distribution Amazon.
In this study we describe areas of endemism from Brazilian mountaintops associated with campo rupestre vegetation based on taxonomically verified records Microlicieae (Melastomataceae). To test the relevance vetted data, compared these those recovered using downloaded Global Biodiversity Information Facility (GBIF) website. A total 12 are recognized and described, which only eight (66%) were retrieved GBIF data. With 1º 0.5º cells, analyses data didn’t detect both individual consensus...
Marcetia wilburiana is described and illustrated from the southwestern region of Chapada Diamantina in Bahia, Brazil, where it appears to be a rare local species campo rupestre. Its affinities appear with M. ericoides shepherdii, both which have wiry subshrubby habit; small, coriaceous, glabrous leaves that are appressed imbricate on uppermost cauline internodes; solitary flowers. It differs having abaxial foliar surfaces longitudinally grooved between callose-thickened margins midvein,...
A new species of Trembleya that was first recognized by Auguste François Marie Glaziou is described. Line drawings, photographs, descriptions the leaf anatomical structure, SEM images, distribution maps, conservation status, and comments on generic circumscription are provided. The appears to be endemic Chapada dos Veadeiros in Goiás, Brazil. It characterized its oblong-lanceolate blades (1.4–4.5 × 0.3–0.9 cm) papyraceous, 3–5-nerved from base glandular-punctate both surfaces, tertiary veins...
O estudo da tribo Microlicieae (Melastomataceae) é parte do levantamento “Flora Serra Cipó”, Minas Gerais, Brasil. Em sua delimitação mais recente, engloba os gêneros Chaetostoma, Lavoisiera, Microlicia, Poteranthera, Rhynchanthera, Stenodon e Trembleya. Para a Cipó foram registrados cinco 69 espécies. Os diversos Microlicia (42 spp.), Lavoisiera (18 spp.) Trembleya (7 enquanto Chaetostoma Rhynchanthera representados por apenas uma espécie. São apresentadas chaves para espécies, descrições,...
Abstract— Microlicieae is a Neotropical tribe of Melastomataceae, and most its species are endemic to Brazil, especially in campo rupestre sites. The ecosystem occurs areas with shallow soils deficient water nutrients, elevations above 900 m. Foliar characters provide important structural features which taxonomic value for Melastomataceae. Due the high degree endemism, issues, variety economy strategies found our objective was evaluate leaf structure 25 Microlicieae, aiming identify...
In the course of preparing a monograph Microlicieae (Melastomataceae) for Serra do Cipó, two new species Microlicia were discovered that are described and illustrated here. The proposed species, nortecipoana obovatifolia, probably endemic to this mountain range. Morphological descriptions, diagnoses, photographs comments on their affinities provided. Their conservation status is assessed using IUCN criteria.
Microlicia woodii is described as a new species from the Meseta de Motacú, Santiago Chiquitos, eastern Bolivia, region rich in endemic plants. The seems to be closely related sphagnicola, and can recognized by combination of elliptic leaf blades 8–10 × 3.2–5 mm, glandular-punctate on both surfaces, petioles 0.2–0.4 mm long, rectangular dorso-ventrally flattened, solitary 5–6-merous flowers, external internal intercalycine eglandular trichomes ca. 1–2 pink petals, dimorphic, bicolored...
Abstract— Seven new species of the neotropical genus Microlicia are proposed ( capitata , M. coriacea mutabilis piranii polychaeta repanda and sparsifolia ). All seven known only from state Minas Gerais, Brazil, mainly in Diamantina Plateau and/or Serra do Cabral. Diagnoses, line drawings, distribution maps, notes on diagnostic characters, conservation assessments, habitat phenology provided.
Microlicia frankii is described, illustrated, and compared with M. ericoides juniperina. It distinguished by its reduced habit (3–15 cm in height), leaves linear-oblong 2–5 mm long, glandular-punctate on both surfaces, flowers apical solitary, calyx lobes narrowly-triangular 3.5–7 petals magenta, isomorphic stamens, tetrasporangiate thecae. The new species probably endemic to Serra do Cipó, Minas Gerais, Brazil.
Field and herbarium studies for a taxonomic revision of Cambessedesia have led to the discovery two new species, angelana C. uncinata. Each these species has restricted distribution in campo rupestre, rocky field habitats above 1200m, Minas Gerais Bahia states respectively. These are described, illustrated, compared with their presumed closest relatives.
Microlicia is a Neotropical genus with about 245 species centered in central-eastern Brazil, areas of campo rupestre and Cerrado. The majority occur the states Minas Gerais, Bahia, Goiás. Based on specimens from herbaria ALCB, HUEFS, MBM, SPF, HUFU, US, we here describe two new Chapada Diamantina region, decumbens macaubensis. apparently endemic to Abaíra municipality, whereas M. macaubensis known only Brotas de Macaúbas municipality. We provide morphological descriptions, line drawings,...
Microlicia pacificoi is described as a new species from limited area of the southern Cadeia do Espinhaço in Minas Gerais, Brazil. Line drawings, photographs, distribution map, and comparative notes on morphologically similar are provided. This readily distinguished by its wiry habit, narrowly lanceolate sessile leaf blades that 2.5–4 × 0.5–1 mm resinous-punctate both surfaces, delicate gland-tipped trichomes distal internodes hypanthia, glabrous irregularly rugulate calyx lobes caducous...
A systematic monograph of the Trembleya s.s. clade is presented, a Brazilian endemic lineage Melastomataceae comprising 11 species and currently recognised as part Microlicia s.l. (Melastomataceae). First, we investigate phylogenetic relationships within Lavoisiereae using two nuclear markers sampling datasets (102 134 terminals). Then, provide revision new circumscription clade, including line drawings, photos living specimens, leaves floral parts, distribution maps, key to accepted...
Two species of the Neotropical genus Microlicia are here proposed as new (Microlicia bicolor and M. pataroi). Both restricted to Beco do Guiné trail Vale Pati in municipality Mucugê, state Bahia, Brazil. Diagnoses, line drawings, notes on diagnostic characters, habitat phenology, conservation assessments, distribution maps provided.
