[efloraofindia:195995] Re: Araceae, Arecaceae and Zingiberaceae Fortnight: Zingiberaceae- Costus speciosus from Yamunanagar for validation-GSAUG24

2014-08-08 Thread manudev madhavan

Dear All,

The name of this species has been changed very recently. Specht  Stevenson 
(2006) proposed a separate genus status for this species as *Cheilocostus 
speciosus *(J.Koenig) C.D.Specht (2006: 159) based on a new phylogeny-based 
classification of the family Costaceae. They choose *C. speciosus *as the 
type species based on* Banksea speciosa* J.Koenig (1783: 75). But this 
generic name is a later parahomonym of *Banksia *J.R.Forster  G.Forster 
and is  treated as a homonym. Thus Cheilocostus is a replacement name for 
*Banksea*. However, already in 1791, Retzius had published a replacement 
name for *Banksea*, namely *Hellenia *Retzius. Thus, *Cheilocostus *is an 
illegitimate superfluous name for *Hellenia*. 

Dr. Suchandra Dutta (2010) proposed a new combination based on this, as 
*Hellenia 
speciosa (*J.Koenig) S.R.Dutta (2010: 152) but she considered the basionym 
to be *Costus speciosus* Koenig ex Smith instead of  *Banksea speciosa* 
J.G. Koenig thus the combination became illegitimate. However she rectified 
the mistake and legitmately published the name *Hellenia speciosa* (J. 
Koenig ex Smith) S. Duta later (Pleione 7(1): 28 - 29. 2013).
 
Goaverts (2013) published the same combination in same year (2013) as *Hellenia 
speciosa* (J.Koenig) Govaerts unaware of the second publication of Dr. 
Dutta (Phytotaxa 151 (1): 63–64; 2013). However according to the rule of 
priority the combination of Dr. Dutta is valid which hadbeen published 
earlier. 

Thus the correct name is *Hellenia speciosa (J. Koenig ex Smith) S. Dutta, 
Pleione 7(1): 228. 2013*

*regards*

I am confused.. seeing the long appendix, well exserted beyond the mouth, 
which is not a characteristic feature for *A. sahyadricum*. 
However, another closely allied species *A. ghaticum* (Sardesai *et al*.) 
Punekar  Kumaran, actually described as a variety of the former species, 
has an appendix which exserts beyond the mouth of the tube. I suppose this 
could be *A. ghaticum* (Sardesai *et al*.) Punekar  Kumaran, though I

 season  apart from monsoon. I hope these posts lure members to Kas in 
 non-peak seasons also. I am sure no one will stop them from exploring 
 plants.
 This is a plant found flowering in rocks around Kumudidni lake at Kas in 
 May with the advent of first moisture (not showers). This perennial has a 
 tuber of about 3 cm. The peduncle is 15-20 cm and the spathe is 7-10 cm. 
 The solitary leaf 15-30 cm tall arises in June with rains. The plant is

Dear all,

I must be proud to say Mr. Prabhu Kumar is one of my best friends from  the
taxonomy arena.
He is such a good filed taxonomist and have surprised me many times with
his enthusiasm and positive energy while climbing steep hills and
mountains.. And we also have discussions on taxonomic problems and
disputes at least once in a week..
I am sure he would be a asset for this group...

wishing him all the best

 Dear Gargji, Gurcharanji and Vijayasankarji

 Thank you very much for your great appreciation.
 I learned a lot of things from our group. Eflora is a great network team
 with great experts.
 Because of some some official problems I cant to come with our group in
 some time.
 I assure that I am ready to give any help to our members at any time
 regarding photos, literature collection or plant collection in Kerala and
 Tamil Nadu (Herbarium ref: MH and CALI).
 Vijayasankar sir,  still I am remembering our collection trip at
 Malappuram. That is a nice one.
 When you are return back to India? Hope we can meet soon.

 Thanking you,

[efloraofindia:123819] Re: two more new species from Kerala

2012-08-09 Thread manudev madhavan



Congratulations to all..!!


Let me repeat the words of Usha di,

 *may be these reviewers and editors are very honest and upright people ...
*

* may be we should congratulate them for their honesty... *

 Similar to Mayurji, I am not able to digest the fact that a paper being 
accepted ( that too a new species), within a couple of days..!! 

I must admit, the Reviewers have done a GREAT job...!! And I am worried, 
not for the long delay being taken for the review of one of my new species, 
which took almost one year for the process, not for the eager of authors to 
introduce the new plant to the public..!! 

A new species can be easily published in a journal with high impact 
factors. But it may take months or sometime years to publish it after its 
critical review process..!! I heard from a reliable source, that another 
fellow is waiting for the review process of a *similar* species for its 
publication in a high impact journal.

I hope that would have been a miscommunication..!! 

 

I need to add one more thing..!!

 

Last week I heard another story about a species already published in JETB 
(Journal of economic  taxonomic Botany). A researcher tried in vein to 
find the type specimen or any other collections of that particular species. 
Interestingly, none of the authors remember the exact locality, where the 
plant was collected and the place where the specimens were deposited...!! 
and the saddest thing is that, one of the author admitted that, he/she 
hasn't seen that plant.. Who knows the truth whether the species occurs or 
not??

 

*may be these researchers are very honest and upright people ...
may be we should congratulate them for their honesty... *

 

*regards*

 I am herewith attaching two new species described by Ratheesh Narayanan

 I would like to say few words about him, he is not a good taxonomist but 
 an excellent silent field worker and a great lover of RET plants of Western 
 Ghats. For his doctoral program he carried out Flora of Wayanad district, 
 Kerala and collected 2034 wild plants. He also described some plants like 
 Miliusa wayanadica, Oberonia swaminathanii, Miliusa gokhale, Impatiens 
 veerapazhassii, Impatiens minae, Impatiens mohana, and Memecylon 
 wayanadica. (Sorry if I missed some) I am sure we can expect some more new

[efloraofindia:123244] another query on citing voucher specimens

2012-08-01 Thread manudev madhavan

Dear all,

How do we cite two voucher specimens collected from the same locality in
different dates.???
Suppose if it is a tree species, when a voucher specimen with flowers were
collected in 12 June 2011 and fruits in the next year 15 August 2012.
We have to give separate voucher numbers since both the specimens were
collected in different seasons and dates.
How do we cite these two voucher specimens in our species description (as
specimens examined)??
Should I use *ib.* or *Ibid*. while citing the second specimen?? Or
should I repeat the locality as such.

*Specimens Examined*: Kerala, Idukki Dist., Munnar, 12.06.2011, *Manudev
30124*; Munnar, 15.08.2012, *Manudev 32331* (DEV). OR

If the specimens were collected in the same date.. and were given different

 You should understand one thing. Please dotn have a tendency to
 identify all plants in the wild. So even if you have multiple
 collections of same taxa from same locality but may be different
 population (not from same population), then you must give different
 number. If you collect multiple plants from one population then you
 can give same number with some suffix.

 If you give different number to plants collected from same population,
 then make sure you know which number belonged to same population
 otherwise it will be confusing while interpreting the intra-population
 variation.
 See the attached sheet plz (J. Renz  H.B. Naithani 13574). The main
 aim was only to show the variation.

  Dear Manu
  You should understand one thing. Please dotn have a tendency to
  identify all plants in the wild. So even if you have multiple
  collections of same taxa from same locality but may be different
  population (not from same population), then you must give different
  number. If you collect multiple plants from one population then you
  can give same number with some suffix.

   In the book Wild Orchids of Hong Kong, after a logn meeting it was
   decided that GPS localities or detailed localities wont be provided to

 Just for information. When we study pollination biology there is 
 pollination success which can be divided into two parts. Male pollination 
 success: meaning how many times insect visited divided by how many times it 
 was actually able to take off the pollinia. 
 Female pollination success: meaning how many times insect or pollinator 
 visited the flower divided by how many times it was able to deposit the 
 pollinia on the stigma. Then overall pollination success can be represented 
 by ratio of first by second.

 This is one of the most confusing gingers of India. I have been looking

 insufficient for confirmation. *But tentatively now placed in Z. neesanum

 Plant Discoveries 2011 by BSI has mentioned about *Zingiber

 Dr M. Sabu ji in his reply has mentioned that this is published as Z.

2012-05-05 Thread manudev madhavan

Hi, '

This could be *Eriocaulon heterolepis* Steudel, which has long exceeding
involucral bracts. I have collected this species myself from Maharashtra.
However, I can not confirm the identity without seeing the dissected
flowers and seeds. You may refer the book  Eriocaulaceae of India by
Ansari  Balakrishnan.

Important diagonostic features for this species are as follows..

Rootstock absent; Peduncles many; Heads white or grey; Involucral bracts
oblong-lanceolate, spreading; Male sepalsconnate ion to a spathe, 3-lobed;
Anthers blac;  Female sepals-3,  free, unequal; Female petals 3,
spathulate, not clawed; Cells of seed coat transversely elongated, aligned
in vertical rows; Appendages 5-6. dialated at apex, from the transverse
radial walls appears to be in transverse rings on the surface of the seeds.

With warm regards

It should be a big sigh of relief for many who were not able to post images

I dont think this is Abrus.
I have never observed a brancehd inflorescence in Abrus..
May be some species of Indigofera, but not sure

  Hi,

  I not think it is Arbus precatorius as I have the creeper in my garden.
  This was a tallish shrub with hardly any leaves.

  Or, it may be Indigofera tinctoria.

  Please check species of *Abrus *of Fabaceae family. Most probably  *Abrus

  I wish to see picture of leaves if you have the same.
