GALPHIMIA (MALPIGHIACEAE) IN SOUTH AMERICA Christiane Anderson University of Michigan Herbarium 3600 Varsity Drive, Ann Arbor, Michigan 48108-2287 Apsstract. A revision of the South American species of Galphimia (Malpighiaceae) is presented. Four species, G. amambayensis, G. australis, G. brasiliensis, and G. platyphylla, are recognized. Full descrip- tions, a key, and two maps are provided. Each taxon is illustrated. One new species, G. amambayensis, is proposed. Galphimia (Malpighiaceae) includes large herbs and shrubs characterized by yel- low petals and a schizocarpic fruit separating into three cocci. The calyx lacks the oil glands found in most genera of New World Malpighiaceae; however, in some species of Galphimia a small gland, which resembles the leaf glands, is borne at the base of the sinus of some or all adjacent sepals (Castro et al. 2001). Most of the ca. 20 species of the genus occur in Mexico, adjacent Texas, and northern Central America, but the remainder are found in South America, south of the Amazon Basin. The Mexican species may be assigned to one of three groups defined by details of the inflores- cence and flower. In two, the flowers are large and borne on a pedicel subtended by a peduncle; in one group the petals are deciduous, in the other they are persistent. The third group includes two species most similar in overall aspect to the South American taxa: the petioles are very short (mostly less than 1 cm long), the peduncle is rudimentary or absent, and the flowers are small (the petals deciduous). Three species of Galphimia have been proposed for South America: G. australis Chodat, G. brasiliensis (L.) Adr. Juss., and G. platyphylla Chodat; however, most bota- nists have followed Niedenzu (1914, 1928), who recognized only one polymorphic species, G. brasiliensis, comprising several varieties and forms. A recent review of the South American collections of Galphimia showed them to belong to four species. Galphimia brasiliensis occurs in northeastern Brazil (Paraiba, Pernambuco, Piaui, and Bahia). The variable G. australis ranges from central Brazil to western Bolivia, southern Paraguay, Uruguay, and adjacent Argentina, and the closely related G. platyphylla is found in eastern Paraguay and adjacent Brazil. The material from east- ern Paraguay included one collection that represents a species here newly described, G. amambayensis. The relationships of the South American taxa with the Mexican ones can be addressed only after a review of the entire genus. The taxonomy of the South American species is presented here as an aid to current floristic projects. A key to the four species is presented below; however, they are quickly separated by geography and obvious morphological characters. Only G. brasiliensis occurs in northeastern Brazil, and has strigose vesture, composed of hairs with a persistent tuberculate base, and uniformly velutinous ovaries/fruits. Galphimia amambayensis occurs within the range of the widespread G. australis and near to that of G. platy- phylla; it differs by its tomentose sepals and inflorescences, and partly velutinous ovaries/fruits; the sepals and ovaries/fruits of G. australis and G. platyphylla are glabrous. As the specific epithet implies, G. platyphylla differs from G. australis in its much broader leaves (length/width ratio 1.2-2.3 (—3) vs. (2-) 2.5—7 (-9). Z CONTR.

Cocci ca. 4.5 mm long, ca. 3 mm in diameter, velutinous like the ovary but glabrescent in age. Galphimia amambayensis is known only from the type collection from eastern Paraguay (Fig. 5). It is readily separated from the other three species by its dense tomentum on the calyx and inflorescence axes. The leaves are sparsely pubescent on both surfaces when young. The ovary is velutinous in a distinctive pattern: the vesture is present along the sutures but on the surfaces only in the proximal 2/3-3/4. In the type collection most of the petals are abaxially sprinkled with hairs but a few are apparently glabrous, though in these instances the hairs may have been broken off. Such petal pubescence occurs sporadically in some species of Malpighiaceae that usually have glabrous petals, and only additional collections of G. amambayensis can resolve whether pubescent petals are indeed characteristic of this species.

Galphimia australis is a widespread and variable species found from central Brazil to Bolivia and eastern Argentina. It is distinguished by glabrous leaves borne on very short petioles (to 6 mm long) and small flowers with a glabrous calyx and ovary. Although the youngest branchlets and inflorescence axes are pubescent, the vesture is soon shed and the more mature parts are usually glabrate to glabrous. In specimens from Rio Grande do Sul (Brazil) the vesture is retained in the racemes and leafy branches, and only the oldest vegetative branches are essentially glabrous. This variant was named by Jussieu (1833) and accepted by Niedenzu (1914, 1928) as G. brasiliensis var. pubescens. Such exceptional populations with persistent vesture occur occasionally in other parts of the range as well (e.g., Argentina, Lorentz 563, Entre Rios; Xifreda & Maldonado 381, Misiones) and are not accorded taxonomic recognition here. Throughout most of the range G. australis bears narrow laminas, ranging from linear to linear-lanceolate to lanceolate to narrowly elliptical, that taper toward the apex and are 3-6 (-9) times as long as wide. Occasionally, some laminas on a specimen are only 2.5 times as long as wide. Chodat (1892) assigned specimens with very narrow leaves to his forma angustifolia, based on Balansa 2394 from Paraguay. Schinini 14017 and Schinini et al. 23447, both from Argentina, are two similarly narrow-leaved collections. In some populations some of the leaves or sometimes even all are wider than usual, and approach the leaf shape found in G. amambayensis and G. platyphylla (c.g., Hassler 4524, Hatschbach 25071, 49160, Krapovickas 29878, Krapovickas & Cristobal 25195). These variants match G. australis in all other aspects. Galphimia brasiliensis (L.) Adr. Jussieu in A. St.-Hilaire, Fl. bras. MeMG: 9/1 E839 [“1832”].

Galphimia brasiliensis is characterized by the “tuberculate-strigose” vesture, the mostly ovate leaves, and a uniformly velutinous ovary and fruit. The androecium is also distinctive in that the filaments of stamens opposing the petals are only 2/3 as long as those of stamens opposing the sepals. The hairs of vegetative parts are borne on small tubercles, which persist after the hair is sloughed off, so that the stems, axes, petioles, pedicels, and even the abaxial costa and margins of laminas are often tuber- culate. Such tubercles are also found in the Mexican species G. arenicola C. Ander- son, G. hirsuta Cav.,and G. tuberculata (Rose) Nied. The glands of larger laminas are sometimes drawn out into a tooth (Fig. 4b). Galphimia platyphylla Chodat, Arch. Sci. Phys. Nat., sér. 3, 24: 500. 1890.

TWO NEW SPECIES OF GALPHIMIA (MALPIGHIACEAE), AND A KEY TO THE MEXICAN SPECIES WITH DECIDUOUS PETALS Christiane Anderson University of Michigan Herbarium 3600 Varsity Drive, Ann Arbor, Michigan 48108-2287 Asstracr. Galphimia mirandae and G. oaxacana, two new Mexican species with deciducous pet- als, are described and illustrated. A key to all 14 Mexican species of Galphimia with deciduous petals is presented. INTRODUCTION Galphimia Cav. (Malpighiaceae) comprises ca. 20 species of large herbs, shrubs, and treelets, all but four occurring in Mexico. Species of Galphimia have yellow petals, often suffused with red. The petals are deciduous in most species, but in those grouped in the G. glauca complex the petals become stiff and spreading, and are persistent. The calyx lacks the oil glands that are found in most genera of New World Malpighiaceae; however, in a few species a small gland, which resembles the leaf glands, is borne at the base of the sinus of some or all adjacent sepals (Castro et al. 2001). The fruit is a schizocarp breaking into three cocci. The genus is placed in the tribe Galphimieae, along with Lophanthera Adr. Juss., Spachea Adr. Juss., and Verrucularia Adr. Juss. (W. R. Anderson 1978; Cameron et al. 2001; Davis et al. 2001). any species included in Galphimia were first described in Thryallis L. or were transferred to it; however, the name Thryallis Mart. is conserved over Thryallis L. (C. Anderson 1995, 2003), and Galphimia Cav. is the correct name for this genus. A few of the Mexican species with deciduous petals are aptly named and easily recognized, e.g., G. angustifolia, G. sessilifolia, G. vestita; however, most species are less distinctive, and the name “G. gracilis” is widely misapplied to them. Galphimia gracilis occurs in Tamaulipas and Veracruz, as well as in adjacent regions of Hidalgo, Puebla, Querétaro, and San Luis Potosi. It is also widely cultivated as an ornamental in warm regions worldwide. A recent review of the Mexican collections of Galphi- mia revealed three undescribed species among material that was associated with G. langlassei (C. Anderson 2003), and two additional novelties, G. mirandae and G. oaxacana, are described here. A key is presented below to aid in the correct identification of the 14 Mexican species with deciduous petals. Commonly encountered synonyms for some names are noted in brackets.

Galphimia mirandae is recognized by its succulent laminas with large, thick- rimmed glands on the margin; if the base is decurrent the glands may at first glance appear to be borne on the petiole, but careful examination shows them embedded in the laminar tissue. The pedicels are quite long (14.5-18.5 mm), and the anterior styles slightly exceed the posterior one. The label data for the type collection include the note “suelo pedregoso”; perhaps this species is associated with substrates derived from volanic deposits. This species is named for the eminent Mexican botanist Faustino Miranda (1905-1964), who first collected it. Galphimia oaxacana C. Anderson, sp. nov.—T ype: Mexico. Oaxaca: Dtto.

Galphimia oaxacana, known only from the Pacific slope of the Isthmus of Tehuan- tepec, is distinctive in its leaves and flowers. The abaxial surface of the thick laminas is commonly papillose, and the costa and secondary veins are prominent. Calyx glands are present in all or nearly all flowers of an inflorescence, and the ovaries and cocci are beset with fine hairs along the dorsal sutures. The collections Torres C. 122, Torres C. 5717, and Torres C. & Martinez 5880 dif- fer in that they consist of terminal branches bearing a flush of small leaves along short internodes (to ca. 1 cm long) and a short inflorescence; the leaves are 1—2.5 cm long, —0.9 cm wide. This growth form may reflect particularly dry conditions. KEY TO THE MEXICAN SPECIES OF GALPHIMIA WITH DECIDUOUS PETALS 1.

PTERANDRA VIRIDIFLORA (MALPIGHIACEAE), A NEW SPECIES FROM BRAZIL Christiane Anderson University of Michigan Herbarium 3600 Varsity Drive, Ann Arbor, Michigan 48108-2287 ABsTRACT. Pterandra viridiflora, a new species from Brazil, is described and illustrated. The novelty is distinguished by its green petals and the placement of inflorescences in the axils of well-developed Pterandra Adr. Juss. is a genus of trees and shrubs of Central and South America (Fig. 1), which is named for its winged anthers (Fig. 2e). It is readily recognized by its stipules and inflorescences. The intra- and epipetiolar stipules are entirely to partly connate, forming two broadly triangular structures that act as valvate bud scales. The inflorescences consist of 2—6-flowered fascicles borne in the axils of bracts or leaves that are crowded at branch apices. The peduncles are absent, and each pedicel is subtended by a bract and two bracteoles. The petals are abaxially pubescent and persistent in fruit. In my monograph of Pterandra (Anderson 1997), I recognized 14 species; to these I add the novelty here described. Pterandra viridiflora C. Anderson, sp. nov—T ype: BraAziL.

It is distinctive in its green pet- als and the placement of the inflorescences. In most species, the fascicles are borne on a leafless node of a short shoot, often below a flush of new leaves, and subtended by a bract composed of the stipules and a rudimentary leaf; in P flavescens and P. sericea (occasionally) the fascicles are placed in the axil of a new leaf. In P. viridiflora the fascicles are borne in the axils of well-developed leaves of a young shoot. Because most species of Pterandra are known from few collections, their ranges are not well known (Fig. 1). An exception is the showy P. pyroidea, which is common in Minas Gerais, the Distrito Federal, and southern Goias. The very similar P. hatsch- bachii was found to the west in Mato Grosso. Both species are low shrublets and have large pink petals. Prerandra viridiflora was collected in eastern Minas Gerais, but in all aspects resembles more the northern species, which are larger shrubs to trees and 2005 C.

Anderson University of Michigan Herbarium 3600 Varsity Drive Ann Arbor, Michigan 48108-2287 Asstract. The name Heteropterys oxenderi W. R. Anderson is proposed for the species Mascagnia discolor W. R. Anderson when it is transferred to the genus Heteropterys, in which the epithet discolor is preoccupied. Heteropterys oxenderi, known only from La Paz province, Bolivia, is related to H. sylvatica Adr. Juss. and H. mollis (Nied.) Nied. in Engl., species of southern Bolivia and adjacent Brazil and Argentina. In 1995 I described a flowering specimen from Bolivia as Mascagnia discolor W. R. Anderson. At that time I was confident of its generic placement, even without the diagnostic fruits, but I was mistaken. A subsequently received collection of the species with fruits showed it to belong to the genus Heteropterys, and the epithet discolor has already been used in Heteropterys, so it is necessary to propose a new name for M. discolor in Heteropterys. The description given below is modified from that in the protologue to include data from the second collection. Heteropterys oxenderi W. R. Anderson, nom. nov. Mascagnia discolor W. R.

Heteropterys oxenderi is a member of a group of three species, the other two being H. sylvatica Adr. Juss. and H. mollis (Nied.) Nied. in Engl. The H. sylvatica group is defined by stipules epipetiolar if present; petioles usually biglandular between middle and apex; lamina glands marginal if present; inflorescence an unbranched axillary pseudoraceme; bracts long, narrow, and deciduous in anthesis; peduncle longer than pedicel; bracteoles apical or subapical, one or both usually bearing 1-2 large abaxial glands; sepals appressed in anthesis; and petals yellow. Heteropterys oxenderi, known only from La Paz province of Bolivia, differs from the other two species in these ways: the lamina, even in age, is abaxially so densely woolly that the long-stalked hairs completely hide the epidermis; the abaxial hairs are brown on the midrib and lateral veins and stramineous or white between the veins; the distal third of the lamina bears large bulging marginal glands + hidden by the vesture; the pseudoracemes are stout and 7-13 cm long; and the two posterior calyx glands are hardly or not at all more decurrent than the other six. In contrast, H. mollis and H. sylvatica are known from Santa Cruz, Bolivia (both), Mato Grosso do Sul, Brazil (H. sylvatica), Jujuy, Argentina (both), and Salta, Argentina (7. sylvatica). Their abaxial lamina hairs are all white and short-stalked, and even at their densest they never completely hide the epidermis of older leaves; the lamina margin is usually eglandu- lar, but may bear few to many small discoid glands; the slender pseudoracemes are 2-7 (—10) cm long; and the two posterior calyx glands are notably more decurrent onto the pedicel than the other six. The only reliable distinction between H. sylvatica and H. mollis is that in the former the lamina is abaxially glabrate at maturity, while in the latter the lamina is persistently tomentose below. The epithet of Heteropterys oxenderi honors my friend and former student Ben- jamin J. Oxender (b. 1977), in appreciation of his assistance to me during his years in the University of Michigan Herbarium.

Anderson University of Michigan Herbarium 3600 Varsity Drive Ann Arbor, Michigan 48108-2287 AssTRACT. The new species Tetrapterys anomala W. R. Anderson is described, illustrated, and dis- cussed. Among the known species of Tetrapterys subgenus Tetrapterys it is unique in its coherent styles, and nearly unique in combining minute, distinct, interpetiolar stipules with glands on the abaxial surface of the lamina. The presence of miniature leaves in the inflorescence and outgrowths between the dorsal and lateral wings of the samara suggests that its closest relatives may be T. discolor (G. Mey.) DC. and allies in section Jetrapterys Niedenzu (1928) placed the species of Tetrapterys with umbels (as opposed to pseudoracemes) in his subgenus Caulolepis Nied., which we would today call subge- nus Tetrapterys because it includes the lectotype of the genus, 7: inaequalis Cav. All of those species have the stipules interpetiolar, i.e., borne on the stem between and quite distinct from the petioles. Niedenzu's groupings within that subgenus rely heavily on whether the stipules between each pair of petioles are distinct or connate. Another informative character in that subgenus (not emphasized by Niedenzu) is the position of the lamina glands, marginal or borne on the abaxial surface. The plant described here does not have its states of those two characters associated as they are in most species of the subgenus, and its gynoecium is most peculiar. I am proposing for this species the epithet anomala to draw attention to its gynoecium and to its association of distinct stipules with glands on the surface of the lamina. Tetrapterys anomala W. R.

ADDITIONAL SPECIMEN EXAMINED. Guyana. CuyUNI-MAZzARUNI REGION: Pakaraima Mts., Mazaruni River, NW of Chi-Chi Falls, along stream between two tepuis, ca. 1.5 km above Base Camp 2, 762 m, 05°35'48.6"N, 60°12'48.8" W, very moist, dense forest, Feb fr, Redden 2510 (MICH). This species is known only from the two collections cited above. The label with the type said it was a liana; that with Redden 2510 described it as a “tree to 4 m.” Given the fact that most species in this genus are woody vines, I believe this one is more likely to be a liana than a tree. I can find only one other species of Tetrapterys that consistently combines distinct interpetiolar stipules with glands on the surface of the lamina, the condi- tion found in T: anomala. That species is T. mucronata Cav., which is common and widespread in South America. As I have noted before (Anderson 2001, p. 183), 7: mucronata is a variable species that may deserve division, but it could not possibly accommodate the plants described here as T. anomala. Tetrapterys mucronata has the leaves glabrous or soon glabrate, and the stems are usually similar. The inflorescence lacks the miniature leaves found in 7 anomala, the floriferous bracts are very narrow, and the calyx glands (if present) become stalked in age. The styles are distinct, long and slender, tapered distally, with the small stigma terminal or slightly internal. The upper lateral wings of the samara are much longer than the lower, about twice as long. These characters suggest that 7’ anomala and T: mucronata are not even very closely related. The presence of miniature leaves (non-floriferous bracts) in the inflorescence suggests that the closest relatives of T. anomala are probably to be found in section Tetrapterys (section Lophogynixa Nied.), in which such bracts are common. Perhaps one should look to T. discolor (G. Mey.) DC. and allied species, because those plants have well-developed outgrowths between the dorsal and lateral wings of the samara, 32 CONTR. UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN HERBARIUM VOLUME 24 as in 7’ anomala, but they all have much larger stipules that are connate in interpeti- olar pairs, which are often caducous. e gynoecium in 7’ anomala is unlike any I have seen before in Tetrapterys. In early flower the three styles are coherent but easily separated, forming a columnar structure as if they were standing back-to-back with their stigmas facing outward; the appearance is reminiscent of the gynoecium in some species of Bunchosia. The stigma is presumably on the internal angle of the style, which suggests that the styles must be twisted so that the stigmas will face outward, but that twisting is not obvious in the very limited material now available for study. The stout styles and large stigmas are consistent with species of Tetrapterys section Tetrapterys, but the stigma here is not decurrent, as it is in many species of section Tetrapterys.

Davis University of Michigan Herbarium 3600 Varsity Drive Ann Arbor, Michigan 48108-2287 Asstract. A revision is provided for the Mascagnia cordifolia group, five South American species with basally biglandular petioles. The group comprises M. aptera W. R. Anderson, M. cordifolia (Adr. Juss. in A. St.-Hil.) Griseb. in Mart., and three new species: M. aequatorialis W. R. Anderson & C. Cav. Davis, M. affinis W. R. Anderson & C. Cav. Davis, and M. glabrata W. R. Anderson & C. Cay. Davis. The treatment includes a key, descriptions, specimens studied, notes, a distribution map, and illustrations of M. aequato- rialis, M. aptera, and M. cordifolia. Mascagnia (Bertero ex DC.) Colla, as treated by Niedenzu (1928) and other authors, is a diverse assemblage of about 100 species of wing-fruited Malpighiaceae. Anderson (e.g., 1990, p.51) has suggested repeatedly that the genus in the broad tra- ditional sense is possibly or probably polyphyletic, and recent molecular phylogenies (Cameron et al. 2001; Davis et al. 2001, 2002) have supported his opinion—they show that Mascagnia sens. lat. comprises at least six distinct clades. In a separate paper, now in preparation, W. R. Anderson will divide Mascagnia sens. lat. into several putatively monophyletic genera. Mascagnia sens. str. is by far the largest clade within Mascagnia sens. lat. Most species of Mascagnia sens. str. can be recognized by the following combination of character-states (W. R. Anderson, unpublished data): vines with interpetiolar stipules, glands impressed in the abaxial surface of the lamina, glabrous petals exposed in the enlarging bud, orbicular membranous samaras with arching and anastomosing veins in the lateral wing, and a smooth three-lobed disciform structure subtending the fruit. The genus is easily subdivided: about 20 of the approximately 50 species have yellow petals, and the others have petals that are pink, lilac, or white. Among the latter, one group of five species is delineated by an easily observed character—a pair of large glands at the base of the petiole. Those species, which we are calling the Mascagnia cordifolia group, are the subject of this paper. Morphologically, the species of the M. cordifolia group are typical of Mascagnia sens. str., and plastid DNA sequences from M. cordifolia (C. C. Davis, unpublished data) nest it among other species of the genus. The group comprises Mascagnia cordifolia (Adr. Juss. in A. St.-Hil.) Griseb. in Mart., three species that are essentially sympatric with and morphologically very similar to M. cordifolia (M. affinis W. R. Anderson & C. Cav. Davis, M. aptera W. R. Anderson, and M. glabrata W. R. Anderson & C. Cav. Davis), and one species (M. aequatorialis W. R. Anderson & C. Cav. Davis) that is morphologically distinct and geographically isolated (Fig. 1). Basally biglandular petioles are otherwise unknown in Mascagnia, and are putatively synapomorphic for the M. cordifolia group. The five species treated here also have pink petals that are abaxially carinate or alulate and straight styles that are dorsally rounded or truncate at the apex. On the basis of overall morphological similarity it seems very likely that M. cordifolia, M. aptera, M. affinis, and M. glabrata are monophyletic. It will be interesting to test whether the monophyly of the whole group will be supported when we get better morphological 33 34 CONTR.

Within the M. cordifolia group, M. aequatorialis is immediately distinguished by its metallic- sericeous leaves, and its wet-forest habitat also sets it apart; it is far-disjunct from the other members of the group. The thick stems to which the leafy branches of the type are attached suggest that this plant is a large, woody liana. 2005 ANDERSON & DAVIS: MASCAGNIA Sf Mascagnia affinis W. R. Anderson & C. Cav.

This species is similar in most characters to Mascagnia cordifolia, which is why we chose an epithet meaning “near.” However, while the many collections of M. cor- difolia studied consistently have the lamina velutinous on both sides with V-shaped hairs, the plants treated here as M. affinis have the lamina subsericeous above and subsericeous to tomentose below. One collection not cited above merits comment. Guillén & Roca 2495 (MICH), from Velasco, Santa Cruz, Bolivia, at 14°22'S, 61°09'W, is intermediate in its leaf vesture between M. affinis, which is known from the same general area, and M. cordifolia, which has not been collected in Santa Cruz.

Its samara has lost the large membra- nous lateral wing found in almost all other species of Mascagnia sens. str. In that loss M. aptera is unique; unlike most of the larger samara-bearing genera, Mascagnia sens. str. has not experienced the repeated loss of wings discussed by Anderson (2001, pp. 84-85). Indeed, the samaras of Mascagnia are so conserved as to make them of 2005 ANDERSON & DAVIS: MASCAGNIA 39 FIG. 3. Mascagnia aptera. a. Flowering branch, x0.5. b.

This common and widespread species is morphologically rather uniform throughout most of its range. The disjunct populations in Amazonas and Para (see Fig. 1) that are assigned here to M. cordifolia agree in most or all respects with the populations of the Planalto cerrados. The single collection known from Espirito Santo is atypical in several characters. Its lamina is not as densely velutinous as in most populations, the petiole and bracteole glands are small, the stem and inflorescence hairs are not as erect as usual, and the petals are only carinate, not alulate. Yet, in a qualitative sense the plant of Espirito Santo agrees reasonably well with M. cordi- folia, and there is no other described species that could accommodate it, so for the present it is best left in this species with its closest relatives. Not treated here is the following collection: BRaziL. ParA: Approx. 70 km from Tucurut, 65 km SSW on old BR422, then 5 km NW on new logging road, 04°11'S, 49°44'W, forest on terra firme, Nov fr, Daly et al. 1436 (MICH, MO, NY). This plant 2005 ANDERSON & DAVIS: MASCAGNIA 43 resembles M. cordifolia in most characters, including large glands at the base of the petiole. However, the collectors did not give a petal color and we can find no old pet- als that would tell us whether or not they were alulate. The lamina is short-velutinous above and subsericeous below, such that these specimens are somewhat intermediate between M. affinis and M. cordifolia in their vesture. As Fig. | shows, the only other collection from near this locality is the single one we have cited from Para, from the Serra dos Carajas. The best disposition of Daly et al. 1436 will have to await further study of Mascagnia sens. str., which may be aided by additional collections from Para when they become available. There is another species of Mascagnia in the Amazon, M. strigulosa (Rusby) Nied. in Engl., that resembles M. cordifolia, because it has pink (or lilac) petals, leaves that are persistently velutinous on both sides, axillary pseudoracemes, a large gland on one of each pair of bracteoles, and erect to divergent styles. Mascagnia strigulosa is easily excluded from this group of species because its petioles are always eglandular. It further differs from M. cordifolia in having 24 large glands (1-2 mm in diameter) at the abaxial base of the lamina, and its lateral petals are only carinate, with a nar- row keel ca 0.1 mm wide.

Anderson Charles C. Davis University of Michigan Herbarium 3600 Varsity Drive Ann Arbor, Michigan 48108-2287 Asstract. Mascagnia leticiana W. R. Anderson is transferred to Malpighia to become Malpighia leticiana (W. R. Anderson) W. R. Anderson & C. Cav. Davis, on the basis of a new phylogenetic analysis of DNA sequences and morphological characters. The morphology of M. leticiana is illustrated and discussed in the context of the problem of distinguishing between Malpighia and Mascagnia. Anderson (1990) assigned Mascagnia leticiana W. R. Anderson to Mascagnia because of its samara-like fruit. In a new, unpublished phylogenetic analysis of Mal- pighiaceae, Mascagnia leticiana is nested within a very strongly supported Malpighia clade (see Fig. 1). The purpose of this paper is to transfer this species from Mascag- nia to Malpighia, and to discuss its morphology and the problem of distinguishing between Malpighia and Mascagnia. Malpighia leticiana (W. R. Anderson) W. R. Anderson & C. Cav. Davis, comb. nov. Mascagnia leticiana W. R. Anderson, Contr. Univ. Michigan Herb. 17: 48. 1990. Fig. 2a-g. This species could fit into either Malpighia or Mascagnia in terms of its stip- ules, leaf glands, petal color, androecium, and gynoecium; those characters support Anderson’s contention (1990) that Malpighia and Mascagnia are closely related, but do not provide a basis for assigning M. leticiana to one genus or the other. On the other hand, the golden needle-like hairs of M. leticiana are found in no species of Mascagnia but are common in Malpighia, and no species of Mascagnia forms trees 6 m tall, which was the size of the type and only known collection of M. leticiana; such trees do occur in Malpighia. On both of these bases M. leticiana belongs in Malpi- ghia. In addition, the short axillary umbels of M. /eticiana are like the inflorescences of many (but not all) species of Malpighia, whereas most species of Mascagnia have the flowers ultimately borne in pseudoracemes. This character, however, should be interpreted with caution, because the umbels of Malpighia are condensed pseudo- racemes and the inflorescence may not prove to be a reliable discriminator between these genera (Anderson 2001). The real problem with M. Jeticiana lies in its fruits. Malpighia and Mascagnia have, for the most part, very different fruit types. In Malpighia the fruit is a fleshy bird-dispersed berry, indehiscent except in M. albiflora (Cuatrec.) Cuatrec. and M. verruculosa W. R. Anderson, in which the fleshy pyrenes grow apart as they mature and separate at maturity. In Mascagnia the fruit is dry and dehiscent, breaking apart at maturity into three membranous samaras with large lateral wings; for an example of those samaras, see the illustration in this volume of Mascagnia cordifolia (Adr. Juss.) Griseb. (Anderson & Davis 2005). This seemingly unequivocal distinction is weakened by the presence of rudimentary winglets on the pyrenes of Malpighia, 45 46 CONTR.

Phylogenetic tree for 25 species of Malpighiaceae, representing the malpighioid clade (sensu Davis et al. 2001). Bootstrap values are given above branches for clades supported at >50%. The reduced strict consensus tree shown here is extracted from a larger phylogenetic analysis of Malpighiaceae using combined DNA sequences from plastid matK, ndhF, and rbcL, nuclear PHYC, and morphology; all genes were sequenced for all taxa (Davis & Anderson, unpublished data). Vouchers for collections sequenced are given in Appendix 1. buried in the fleshy pericarp (Anderson 1978; see here Fig. 2h-j; note that the fruit shown in i and j was not dehiscent, but when the flesh holding the pyrenes together was removed the pyrenes could be separated). Those rudimentary winglets suggest the probable origin of Malpighia from a Mascagnia-like ancestor with a winged, wind-dispersed fruit. Nevertheless, for most species the distinction between Malpi- ghia and Mascagnia is easy if one has fruits—if the fruit is indehiscent and fleshy the genus is Malpighia, and if it is dry, dehiscent, and samaroid the genus is Mascagnia. When Anderson (1990) studied the immature fruits on the type of M. leticiana, he found them to be small and coriaceous (suggesting that they may have been some- what fleshy), but conspicuously winged (Fig. 2g). The fruits were not dehiscent, but he had no difficulty separating the mericarps and concluded that they probably do separate at maturity. We have no way of knowing how fleshy the fruits may have been 2005 W. ANDERSON & DAVIS: MALPIGHTA LETICIANA 47 FIG. 2 Tee leticiana, M. novogaliciana, and M. rzedowskii. a—g, M. leticiana: a.

UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN HERBARIUM VOLUME 24 before being dried. The mericarps of M. /eticiana are perplexing because they do not quite resemble the samaras of Mascagnia or the pyrenes of any known species of Malpighia. Faced with this dilemma, Anderson chose to rely on the dry (?) dehiscent (?) winged fruits as the most reliable indicator of generic position and assigned the species to Mascagnia. Given our new phylogenetic analysis and the morphological characters mentioned above, we now believe this species is best placed in Malpighia; however, it remains anomalous and problematic in that genus, too. Anderson suggested that M. leticiana might represent an intermediate between Mascagnia and Malpighia, “with small leathery samaras that became fleshy, thereby shifting from wind to birds as the agent of dispersal” (Anderson 1990, p. 48). There may still be some conceptual merit in thinking about this plant in that way, especially if future analyses place M. leticiana sister to the core fleshy-fruited Malpighia clade; however, at the moment there is very little support for the exact position of this species within Malpighia (Fig. 1). Alter- natively, if M. leticiana is confirmed to be well nested within Malpighia, as suggested (albeit weakly) by Fig. 1, it will have to be considered a species in which an indehis- cent fleshy fruit reverted to something that secondarily resembles a Mascagnia-like cluster of three samaras.

CATALOG OF HONDURAN ACANTHACEAE WITH TAXONOMIC AND PHYTOGEOGRAPHIC NOTES Thomas F. Daniel Department of Botany California Academy of Sciences Golden Gate Park San Francisco, California 94118 BSTRACT. A taxonomic revision of Honduran Acanthaceae based on field and herbarium studies reveals the presence of 96 species of that family in the country. Seventy-four of these species are treated as native to Honduras; eight of them are endemic there. Four of the endemic taxa, Aphelandra molinae, Justicia ae Pseuderanthemum liesneri, and Stenostephanus hondurensis, are described as species new to science. Two genera and 12 a das described species are reported from Honduras for the first time. O ombination, S$: essilifolius, based on Glockeria sessilifolia Oerst. [syn. Hansteinia canta (Oerst.) Durkee], and one new name, Justicia ciriloi, based on Beloperone blechioides Leona [non Justicia blechoides (Lindau) Stearn], are proposed. A lectotype is designated for Ruellia ae Gibson, a synonym of Ruellia fulgida Andr. Seven names currently applied to Honduran taxa are placed in synonymy of other names. Honduras has relatively low numbers of both total nativ ies and endemic species of Acanthaceae compared to several smaller political units in the Nieconmencan region. This is attributed to several factors, including the prevalence of pine forests there. For each native species the catalog includes distributional data (both within and external to Honduras), habitats in Honduras, periods of flowering and fruiting in Honduras, specimen citations Ok each Hondur n department in which the species is known to occur, and descriptions and/or t u S nee appropriate. INTRODUCTION Located in the center of the Mesoamerican region, Honduras is the second largest Central American nation. Physiographically, it consists of a large mountain- ous core bounded by narrow Caribbean lowlands in the north and a small Pacific lowland in the south. The entire region has long been settled by pre-Colombian and subsequently European cultures, and much of the land area comprises second-growth forests. There is no recent treatment of the Honduran vascular flora, but estimates of the number of species there vary from 5000 (Gentry 1978) to 6000 (Gémez et al. 1997). Brief summaries of botanical activities in Honduras were provided by Nelson (1990, 1996) and Nelson et al. (1996). The country is divided politically into 18 depart- ments (Fig. 1). With the publication of the Flora de Nicaragua (Stevens et al. 2001), Honduras is the only nation in Central America for which a recent account of Acanthaceae is lacking. Other than descriptions of undescribed taxa and reports of range extensions, little has been published about this large, mostly tropical family in Honduras. The only previous account of Honduran Acanthaceae is that of Molina (1975), in which the names of 80 native and exotic (including cultivated) species of the family were listed. With the exceptions of the herbarium collections at EAP, F, and MO, Hon- duran Acanthaceae are not well represented in the world’s major herbaria. For the family, Honduras is both the least known and least collected region in Mesoamerica. The following study was undertaken in order to document those Acanthaceae known from Honduras, to revise their nomenclature and taxonomy, assess the status of the family in Honduras relative to the other Central American nations, and to provide additional collections of Acanthaceae from the country.

SUMMARY OF ACANTHACEOUS FLORA OF HONDURAS Herein, 96 species of Acanthaceae are documented from Honduras. Of these, 74 are treated as occurring natively there and 22 are native to other regions of the world and either cultivated and/or naturalized in the country. Four species, Aphelandra molinae, Justicia pilzti, Pseuderanthemum liesneri, and Stenostephanus hondurensis, are newly described from Honduras; two genera (Herpetacanthus and Stenostepha- nus) are newly reported from Honduras; and 12 previously described species of Acanthaceae (Herpetacanthus panamensis, Justicia ciriloi, J. tuxtlensis, Mendoncia guatemalensis, M. lindavii, Odontonema cuspidatum, Pseuderanthemum verapazense, Ruellia metallica, R. standleyi, R. tuberosa, Stenandrium chameranthemoideum, Ste- nostephanus sessilifolius) are reported as native to or naturalized in the country for the first time. Among genera of Honduran Acanthaceae, Justicia is the largest genus with 19 native species and Ruellia is the second largest with 11 native species. These are the two largest genera of Acanthaceae in the New World. The most widely distrib- uted species in Honduras is Aphelandra scabra, which occurs in all 18 departments. Eight species (Aphelandra dunlapiana, A. molinae, Dicliptera antidysenterica, Justicia calliantha, J. pilzii, Lophostachys zunigae, Pseuderanthemum liesneri, and Stenostephanus hondurensis) are recognized as endemic to the country. Three others (Anisacanthus tetracaulis, Justicia ciriloi, and J. ensiflora) are nearly endemic there (i.e., they occur only in Honduras and Belize, El Salvador, Guatemala, and/or Nicaragua). 2005 DANIEL: HONDURAN ACANTHACEAE 53 Although neither the total number of native species of vascular plants nor the number of those endemic to Honduras are known, based on the estimates of Davis et al. (1986; i.e., 5000 species and 148 endemic species) about 3% of the species are endemic to the country. The percentage of endemic Acanthaceae (11%) is thus more than three and one half times greater than the overall rate of endemism for the country. Taxonomic reassessments made during this study have resulted in a new name (Justicia ciriloi for Beloperone blechioides), a new combination (Stenostephanus sessilifolius for Hansteinia sessilifolius), the recognition of a species (Dicliptera anti- dysenterica) previously treated as conspecific with another, and the placing of seven currently accepted names (Dyschoriste hondurensis, Justicia danielii, J. rothschuhii, Ruellia latibracteata, R. molinae, R. williamsii, and Siphonoglossa ramosa var. hondu- rensis) in the synonymy of others. The following account includes species that are known to occur in Honduras as documented by specimen vouchers. Based on their presence in adjacent regions of Central America, additional species of Acanthaceae might be expected to occur in Honduras, but have yet to be collected in the country. These include Aphelandra gigantiflora Lindau, Chileranthemum pyramidatum (Lindau) T. F. Daniel, Dicliptera guttata Standl. & Leonard, Justicia caudata A. Gray, J. eburnea D. N. Gibson, J. fim- briata (Nees) V. A. W. Graham, J. grandiflora D. N. Gibson, J. montana (Standl. & Leonard) D. N. Gibson, J. silvicola D. N. Gibson, J. soliana Standl., Razisea spicata Oerst., Ruellia donnell-smithii Leonard, R. pereducta Standl. ex Lundell, R. pygmaea Donn. Sm., Schaueria parviflora (Leonard) T. F Daniel, and Tetramerium tenuis- simum Rose. DISTRIBUTION AND HABITATS Wilson and Meyer (1982) presented a concise and informative account of Honduran physiographic, climatic, and ecological parameters in which they recog- nize nine ecological formations varying from arid to dry to moist to wet. American Acanthaceae occur in diverse communities but are particularly abundant in wet and dry lowland formations and in moist to wet montane forests. The habitat informa- tion provided in this treatment reflects that noted on herbarium specimens, which is sometimes imprecise or incomplete. From the pooled ecological data for a given species, it is often possible to determine whether it occurs in moist to wet vs. dry habitats, however. Among native Honduran Acanthaceae that can be unambiguously assigned to either moist to wet or dry formations, 46 species appear restricted to the former and only three (Henrya insularis, Tetramerium nemorum, and T. nervosum) to the latter. Few tropical American Acanthaceae occur in pine forests (including oak-pine forests), which are the most common and widespread plant communities in Honduras. Only 10 species of native Honduran Acanthaceae have been specifically noted to have been collected in such forests. Figure 1 shows the numbers of native species of Acanthaceae in each depart- ment of Honduras. Major concentrations of species are present in the three central, mountainous departments of Comayagua (36), Olancho (32), and Cortés (31). Each of these departments contains a diversity of habitats, including extensive areas of both moist to wet and dry formations (Wilson & Meyer 1982). Olancho is the larg- est department of Honduras and, according to Nelson (1989), Comayagua is one of the few relatively well-collected departments. Departments with the fewest native Acanthaceae are Islas de la Bahia (5) and Valle (6). The low numbers there are likely 54 CONTR. UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN HERBARIUM VOLUME 24 due to the small sizes of these departments, the lack of habitat diversity (each depart- ment consists mostly or entirely of a single ecological formation), and the high level of human disturbance in the landscape (i.e., Valle). Although the Bay Islands were apparently connected to the mainland throughout much of the Tertiary (Wilson & Meyer 1982), other small Caribbean islands near the Central American mainland are also poor in Acanthaceae (e.g., Fosberg et al. 1 Given the country’s central location and diverse communities, it is perhaps not surprising that numerous Acanthaceae attain the northern- or southernmost extent of their distributions in Honduras. Non-endemic native Acanthaceae that attain the northernmost extent of their continental distributions in Honduras consist of Herpetacanthus panamensis, Ruellia fulgida, and Stenostephanus sessilifolius. All are species of moist to wet formations. Fifteen species of non-endemic Acanthaceae reach the southern- or easternmost extent of their continental distributions in Hon- duras: Anisacanthus tetracaulis, Justicia breviflora, J. ciriloi, J. ensiflora, J. tuxtlensis, Louteridium donnell-smithii, Mendoncia guatemalensis, Odontonema albiflorum, O. cuspidatum, O. hondurense, Pseuderanthemum verapazense, Ruellia harveyana, R. puberula, Spathacanthus hahnianus, and Stenandrium chameranthemoideum. Most of these species also occur predominantly or exclusively in moist to wet formations. It is a mystery to me why five times more northerly-occurring species reach the southern (or eastern) limit of their distributional range in Honduras than southern species reaching their northern limit. PHENOLOGY In general for Honduras, wet and dry periods are correlated with wind patterns resulting from migrations of the thermal equator and intertropical convergence zone (Wilson & Meyer 1982); however, given the diverse topography, local weather pat- terns are sometimes greatly influenced by regional physiography. In general, rains normally commence in Honduras in April or May, followed by a short dry season (the so-called “veranillo”) in late July and early August. Another period of rain commences following the veranillo and lasts until November or December. This is followed by the main dry season of five to six months duration. At least five species of native Honduran Acanthaceae flower more or less throughout the year: Aphel- andra aurantiaca, A. scabra, Justicia ramosa, Odontonema tubaeforme, and Ruellia hookeriana. The vast majority (at least 57 species) of the remaining native Honduran Acanthaceae flower during the long dry season from December into April or May. Forty-one of these species appear to flower only during that season. The known flow- ering periods of eight species (Herpetacanthus panamensis, Justicia ensiflora, Mendon- cia retusa, Pseuderanthemum alatum, P. cuspidatum, Ruellia puberula, Spathacanthus hahnianus, and Stenandrium pedunculatum) suggest that they flower primarily or exclusively during the rainy season(s). Several of these species are known from rela- tively few collections and additional observations would be helpful to confirm their flowering periods. Flowering collections (i.e., with corollas present) of Lophostachys zunigae and Ruellia standleyi from Honduras remain unknown. Fruiting usually occurs simultaneously with flowering or lags only a month or two behind. HONDURAN ACANTHACEAE IN A REGIONAL CONTEXT For its relative size, location in the tropics, and topographic complexity, Hondu- ras seems depauperate in the total number of native species of Acanthaceae.

Given its relatively large size and habitat diversity, Honduras has fewer total species and endemic species of Acanthaceae than several smaller regions to the north and south. This same situa- tion is evident to an even greater extent in Nicaragua, the largest Central American nation, which has only 59 total native species and just two endemic species of Acan- thaceae. One can attribute the relatively small numbers of Acanthaceae in Belize and El Salvador to such factors as the relatively small sizes of these nations, the disturbance there caused by humans (both pre- and post-Columbian), and the lack of a diversity of major vegetation types. But what accounts for the small numbers in Honduras and Nicaragua? Both are large and have a greater diversity of vegetation types. Assum- ing that both countries are as well collected as Costa Rica, Panama, and Guatemala, there are several possible reasons for the relative paucity of Honduran (and presum- ably Nicaraguan) Acanthaceae compared with surrounding regions: ere are not as many regions at high elevations in Honduras as there are in Guatemala, Costa Rica, and Panama. The highest point in Honduras (Montafia Celaque at 2850 m) is considerably lower than the higher mountains in these coun- tries (each of which has several peaks above 3000 m). Although Acanthaceae are not abundant in the cloud forest habitats that are generally found at these elevations, several genera (e.g., Spathacanthus, Stenostephanus) and species in other genera 56 CONTR. UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN HERBARIUM VOLUME 24 (e.g., Aphelandra tonduzii Leonard, Dicliptera iopus Lindau, D. skutchii Leonard, Justicia angustibracteata Leonard, J. fortunensis T. F. Daniel & Wassh.) are mostly or entirely confined to such locations. 2) There is a general absence of climatic extremes, both wet and dry, in Honduras compared with several other Mesoamerican regions. The more or less continuous dry forest or thornscrub that extends from Mexico to Costa Rica along the Pacific Coast occupies very little area in Honduras due to the country’s topography. As in several of the other regions of the country supporting dry forest and thornscrub, the limited dry region of the Pacific lowlands in southern Honduras has been highly degraded through its long history of human occupation and continues to be severely impacted by overgrazing of livestock and agriculture. There is also little truly wet forest in Honduras. Most portions of the low to mid-elevation, moist to wet forests of the Caribbean versant in Honduras have a definite dry season that decreases their diversity compared to the wet montane forests of other regions of Central America. Even moist to wet regions at high elevations that are referred to as cloud forests in Honduras (and which indeed contain cloud forest elements) have a definite dry sea- son and are not nearly as rich in species as cloud forests to the north or south. 3) The presence of pine forests covering much of the country would appear to be a limiting factor for many species of Acanthaceae, as noted above. Pine forests are notably lacking in Acanthaceae wherever both occur, from the southeastern United States through Mexico and northern Central America to Nicaragua, where this for- est type reaches its southern extent. Hence, the lack of Acanthaceae in this plant community and its prevalence in Honduras likely help to explain the relatively low number of acanthaceous species in the country. It is probable that there is no single reason for the low numbers of both species and endemic taxa in Honduras (and Nicaragua) compared to smaller political units in the Mesoamerican region. Those numbers may result from all of the factors men- tioned and from additional factors that are not obvious to me. Based on the numbers of total species presented in Table | and figures cited by Bramwell (2002), it appears that taxa other than Acanthaceae show a similar pattern in this region. Indeed, Almeda (1996) noted a similar situation for Honduran Melastomataceae. CONSERVATION AND FUTURE STUDIES Even with a lower number of acanthaceous species in Honduras compared with some other Mesoamerican regions, the country is home to a diverse, unique, and interesting assemblage of Acanthaceae. Indeed, the percentage of Acanthaceae endemic to Honduras (Table 1) is similar to that of Guatemala and Chiapas, regions with considerably more species. Several undescribed species are described below and additional taxa will undoubtedly be discovered in Honduras as remote regions are explored. Fortunately, several of the endemic Acanthaceae occur in protected reserves (e.g., Aphelandra molinae in Parque Nacional de Celaque and Lophostachys zunigae in Parque Nacional Pico Bonito). It is difficult to assess the conservation status of the majority of acanthaceous species in Honduras. Some formerly common species may be seriously threatened by loss of habitat (e.g., Anisacanthus tetracaulis, see below), whereas other species appear to be quite rare and are not known to occur in protected areas (e.g., Aphelandra dunlapiana). Hopefully, the information presented in the catalog below can help to assess the conservation priorities and needs for this family in Honduras. 2005 DANIEL: HONDURAN ACANTHACEAE 57 Collections representing three species of Honduran Acanthaceae, two of Justi- cia and one of Dicliptera, could not be identified; they do not sufficiently resemble known species in their respective genera from North and Central America to be associated with a name. In this catalog, they are treated under their respective genera but will require additional studies to determine whether they represent undescribed species, fall within the circumscription of poorly known South American taxa, or represent variation within species that require taxonomic reconsideration. La Mosquitia (i.e., that part of northeastern Honduras mainly occupied by the indigenous Miskito people, with extensive areas of lowland pine savanna, and com- prising most of the department of Gracias a Dios) is perhaps the least explored and least collected region of Honduras (Proctor 1983). Undoubtedly, additional native Acanthaceae will be found there. It is also likely that there were additional Acantha- ceae in Honduras that have been extirpated during the past several hundred years. CONTENTS OF CATALOG In the following enumeration of Honduran Acanthaceae at least one collection is cited from each department in which the species is known to occur. For native and naturalized species the habitats, elevational ranges, and flowering and fruiting times noted are based solely on Honduran collections. Distributions in the Western Hemisphere are noted for each native species. Detailed descriptions are provided here only for poorly known species and Honduran endemics. Pollen morphology is often useful for both classifying and identifying Acanthaceae. Scanning electron micrographs of pollen grains are shown for rare and endemic species, or to illustrate characteristics used in taxonomic discussions. Keys to and descriptions of most Acan- thaceae occurring in Honduras are available in one or more of the following recent treatments of American Acanthaceae: Daniel (1995b), Durkee (1978, 1986, 2001), and Gibson (1974). The catalog also includes Acanthaceae cultivated in Honduras as they are represented in herbaria. In addition to those noted here, there are undoubt- edly other exotic Acanthaceae cultivated in the country. Types of all names based on Honduran Acanthaceae are noted. Taxonomic reconsiderations are discussed where appropriate. CATALOG OF HONDURAN ACANTHACEAE Acanthus montanus (Nees) T. Anders. This native of western tropical Africa is cultivated in gardens in Honduras. Other species of Acanthus L. are likely grown for ornament in the country as well. Nelson (1986) noted A. mollis L. as being cultivated there, but no specimens of it have been located. REPRESENTATIVE SPECIMEN. Comayagua: vicinity of Siguatepeque, planted in garden, P. Standley & J.

According to Durkee (1999), A. tetracaulis differs from A. nicaraguensis by its shorter corollas (22-27 vs. 33-35 mm long), shorter calyces (6—9 vs. 11-15 mm long), shorter bracts and bracteoles (1.7—2.5 vs. 3.5-4.5 mm long), and shorter thecae (2.5—3.3 vs. 3.6-3.8 mm long). Leonard (1950) indicated that A. tetracaulis is related to the South American species, A. caducifolius (Griseb.) Lindau, which he indicated differed by its terete stems, shorter inflores- cence, and smaller calyces.

It appears that Anisacanthus tetracaulis is becoming rare in Honduras. It was rather commonly collected in the vicinity of Tegucigalpa and in the Yeguare Valley until about 1950. It has been collected only rarely since that time, and I was unable to locate populations of it during 2000 and 2001 in spite of extensive searching in regions where it had previously been collected. Both regions have experienced con- siderable increases in human population and environmental alteration in the years since 1950. 60 CONTR.

Croat & D. Hannon 64507 (CAS, EAP, MO).—Yoro: Piedra Colorada, A. Molina R. 6885 (EAP, F). Ruellia latibracteata is treated here as a synonym of B. grandiflorum. It was based on collections from several departments of Honduras (Gibson 1972). Most of the collections cited above were originally identified as “Ruellia locuples Stand. & L. Williams,” a name that was never validly published. Similar collections from Mexico, Guatemala, and Nicaragua have been treated as either R. mirandana Rama- moorthy & Hornelas (Ramamoorthy & Hornelas 1988) or Blechum grandiflorum Oerst. (Daniel 1995b; Durkee 2001). Daniel (1995a) discussed the generic position of this species and the generic distinctions between Blechum and Ruellia. Plants of RK. latibracteata from Honduras have the diagnostic characteristics of the former genus. Plants from the western portion of the range of the species (Mexico and Gua- temala) differ from most of those in the eastern portion of the range (Honduras and Nicaragua; including the type of R. /atibracteata) by having inconspicuous glandular trichomes on the surfaces of the bracts and bracteoles. Pubescence, if any, on the bracts and bracteoles of most plants from Honduras and Nicaragua consists of a few antrorse to antrorsely appressed eglandular trichomes mostly along the midvein. A few of the inconspicuous glands are evident on Dickson J/178 at EAP, however. In all other features, plants of R. latibracteata from Honduras concur with those treated as B. grandiflorum elsewhere in tropical America. Blechum pyramidatum (Lam.) Urb. Phenology.

Allen et al. 6054 (holotype: F!; isotypes: EAP! US!). In the protologue, Allen’s type collection number is erroneously cited as “6056.” This species is usually equated with D. swmichrasti Lindau (e.g., Gibson 1974), a spe- cies described from Mexico. Although studies of Dicliptera in Mexico and Central America are incomplete, the distinctions between D. antidysenterica and D. sumi- chrasti appear as great as between numerous other species currently recognized in the genus. Dicliptera antidysenterica and D. sumichrasti can be distinguished by the following couplet: Inflorescence bracts ovate to narrowly elliptic; outer cymule bracteoles rounded to acute (sometimes slightly apiculate) at apex, emucronate (or mucro, if present, up to 0.2 mm long), margin ciliate with erect to flexuose trichomes to 1.5 mm long; inner cymule bracteoles 5—9 mm long; calyx 4-5.5 mm long; external surface of corolla pubescent with eglandular trichomes only (or glands, if present, very sparse and inconspicuous); capsules pubescent with eglandular and glandular (sometimes only near apex) trichomes. D. antidysenterica Inflorescence bracts lanceolate; outer cymule bracteoles acute to spinose-aristate at apex with cro to 1 mm long, margin ciliate with antrorse eglandular trichomes 0.1—-0.2 mm long; inner cymule bracteoles 3.54.7 mm long; calyx 3-3.5 mm long; external surface of corolla pubescent with glandular (conspicuous) and eglandular trichomes: capsules pubescent with eglandular trichomes only.

OcorePEQue: 10 km NE of Sinuapa, 1300 m, stream bank in mixed forest, 24 January 1976 (flr), A. Molina R. et al. 31415 (EAP). Several superficially similar species have been described from Guatemala (e.g., D. debilis Leonard, D. guttata Standl. & Leonard, D. inutilis Leonard, and D. membranacea Leonard), but their status and range of morphological variation have not been adequately studied. Several of these species are known only by the types, which are sometimes fragmentary. The Honduran collection noted above superfi- cially resembles these species and D. antidysenterica, but differs from all of them by the following combination of characters: paired bracts subtending cymes linear to elliptic, 8.5-10 mm long, 1.1-2.7 mm wide; cymules 3 per cyme, sessile to subsessile; outer cymule bracteoles obovate, unequal, 10.515, 4-6 mm wide, abaxially sparsely pubescent eglandular trichomes, margin ciliate with flexuose eglandular trichomes to 1.3 mm long, apex rounded-apiculate; and corolla “fuchsia,” resupinate, 30 mm long, externally pubescent with glandular and eglandular trichomes. It may represent an undescribed species, but it would seem imprudent to describe yet another species in this complex, based on a single and fragmentary specimen, at the present time. A bet- ter understanding of species of Dicliptera in Central America and fruiting collections resembling Molina R. et al. 31415 should ultimately assist in determining its status.

The species generally has blue corollas, and those Honduran collections that note corolla color also indicate blue corollas. Daniel 9824 from Francisco Morazan has corollas entirely white. The population from which this collection was made occurs in a pine plantation on the grounds of the Escuela Agricola Panamericana. In this population, the ratio of plants with blue flowers to those with white flowers was approximately 1:1 among about 100 individuals seen. Plants grown from seed from these white-flowered individuals have white flowers themselves. Thus, they do not appear to represent an albinic form, but rather an unusual local expression of the species or an unrecognized taxon. 2005 DANIEL: HONDURAN ACANTHACEAE a. Eranthemum pulchellum Andr.

These Honduran collections, made in 1980 and 1981, greatly resemble the type, and only known collection, of Beloperone blechioides from the department of Chiqui- mula in east-central Guatemala. They represent the first records of the species in Honduras, and apparently the first collections of the species since that of the type in 1939. In 1984, J. Simmons collected cuttings of this species in the department of Yoro (42 km E of Santa Rita to Morazan); these were subsequently grown at the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew. A specimen from the plants cultivated at Kew was sent to CAS (CAS 930274) and conforms to the description above. Because Beloperone is now treated as congeneric with Justicia, and because a confusingly similar epithet (i.e., “blechoides”) has already been used in the latter genus, a new name is provided above for this “rediscovered” taxon, as allowed by Articles 11 and 53 of the International Code of Botanical Nomenclature (Greuter 2005 DANIEL: HONDURAN ACANTHACEAE 77 et al. 2000). The name honors Prof. Cirilo Nelson (b. 1938) of the Universidad Auténoma de Honduras, who participated in the collection of all recent Honduran specimens of it. abels of the Honduran collections note that corollas were yellow or white-yel- low. Label data on the type of B. blechioides notes that corollas were “white spotted with purple around lip. ” Living plants cultivated at Kew from Simmons’s cuttings (seen in 2002) have pale yellow corollas with maroon markings on the lips. Gibson (1974) noted that Justicia fulvicoma Schltdl. (including Beloperone bel- chioides in her circumscription of that species) was known from Honduras. The basis for her inclusion of Honduras within the range of this species remains unknown. The illustration (her Fig. 87) labeled as “Justicia fulvicoma” in her treatment of Guatema- lan Acanthaceae pertains to J. ciriloi.

Honduran specimens of this species were treated by Standley (1931) as J. trichotoma (Kuntze) Leonard. Both species occur in wet forests of the Caribbean lowlands. While J. pilzii resembles J. trichotoma of southern Central America by its antrorse cauline trichomes, anisophyllous leaves, similar inflorescences, equally S-lobed calyces, relatively small and similarly shaped corollas, and pubescent thecae, it differs in numerous significant characters, which are summarized in the following couplet: Cauline trichomes eglandular; leaf margin entire; calyx 3-4.1 mm long; corolla 6.5—10 mm long; the- cae 0.8-1.2 mm long, the lower theca with a basal appendage 0.5 mm long; pollen 3-aperturate, apertures flanked on each side by a pseudocolpus (i.e., 6-pseudocolpate); capsule 6.5-10 mm long; seed surface smooth to rugose; Honduras. J. pilzii Cauline trichomes usually wit some eee trichomes present; leaf margin sinuate; calyx 6.5—9 m long; corolla 15-17 n 0.7 mm long, the lower theca with a basal appendage 02 mm long; pollen 2- pees seers flanked on each side by peninsulae; capsule 12-15 mm long; seed surface gemmate to baculate; Costa Rica and Panama. J. trichotoma The palynological differences (Fig. 6c-f) were noted in multiple collections of each species (/. pilzii: Hazlett & Brant 8096, Standley 55396, and Wilson 219; J. tricho- toma: Chacon G. 1015, Hammel 7736, and Jiménez M. 1909 Although present, glandular trichomes are neither as numerous nor conspicuous in the inflorescence of Wilson 2/9 as in the other collections of J. pilzii observed. The epithet of this species honors Dr. George Pilz (b. 1942) of the Escuela Agri- cola Panamericana in Honduras, student of Nyctaginaceae, devoted teacher and amiable colleague, who helped make this account possible.

Both Gibson (1974; see under Siphonoglossa Oerst.) and Durkee (2001) treated J. ramosa and J. sessilis Jacq. as conspecific. Hilsenbeck (1989; as Siphonoglossa) studied these species and their types in detail and concluded that they are distinct on the basis of the flowers (sessile in the leaf axils in J. sessilis vs. borne in bracteate spikes in J. ramosa) and seeds (surface with bullate encrustations 0.3-0.5 mm long in J. ramosa vs. surface with tuberculate or papillose protuberances 0.1—-0.2 mm in diameter in 82 CONTR. UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN HERBARIUM VOLUME 24 J. sessilis). Until they are again thoroughly studied from throughout their ranges, both species, as distinguished by Hilsenbeck, are recognized here. As treated here, /. ramosa includes Siphonoglossa hondurensis Standl. & Steyerm. [=S. ramosa var. hon- durensis (Standl. & Steyerm.) Hilsenb.], the type of which was collected in Honduras [Francisco Morazan: region de La Travesia, cerca de Suyapa, 1100 m, 18 Sep 1948, P. Standley 12459 (holotype: F!; isotype: EAP!)|. Hilsenbeck (1989) indicated that var. hondurensis could be distinguished from var. ramosa by its dark brown stems, more ovately-lanceolate leaves, and usually shorter corollas. These characters appear to vary throughout the range of the species. As noted by Ayers and Boufford (1988), the type of Justicia rhodioides Leonard from Colombia also pertains to this species.

Gibson (Gibson 1974) or Justicia danielii L. H. Durkee (Durkee 1999: a new name In Justicia for C. cuspidatus, not J. cuspidata Vahl). Comparison of Central American collections to those of J. ramulosa from South America (including an isotype of Beloperone ramulosa Morong) reveals that they are similar in every way. Indeed, Lindau annotated the type of C. cuspidatus from Guatemala as Belo- perone ramulosa. South American plants show more variation than was observed among Central American plants in the following characteristics: density of cauline pubescence (trichomes nearly absent to sparse to dense vs. dense), bract shape (ovate to elliptic to obovate vs. obovate), degree of development of aristate bracteal apex (poorly to well developed vs. well developed), and capsule pubescence (glabrous to pubescent vs. pubescent). Some South American plants are indistinguishable from Central American plants in all of these features. As interpreted here, /. ramulosa exhibits an interesting disjunct and amphi-equa- torial distribution. At least two other species of Acanthaceae have a similar distribu- tion pattern, occurring in Mexico and southern South America: Ruellia erythropus (Nees) Lindau (Ezcurra 1993) and R. coerulea Morong (Daniel 1995b). Pollen of Croat & Hannon 641/17 is 2-aperturate with apertures flanked on each side by 2-3 rows of insulae (Fig. 5g—1). It greatly resembles pollen of J. ramulosa from South America (i.e., Wood 7/16] from Bolivia and Zardini 4585 from Paraguay; Fig. 5h, 1). Capsules and seeds, hitherto unknown for Central American representatives of J. ramulosa, can be described as follows: capsules 6.5—8 mm long, pubescent with erect to flexuose to retrorse eglandular trichomes 0.05—0.2 mm long, stipe 2-3 mm long, head subellipsoid with a shght medial constriction, 4.5-5 mm long; seeds 4, sublenticular, 1.5-1.9 mm long, 1.4-1.5 mm wide, surfaces and margin covered with trichomelike papillae (pilae and baculae).

OLANCHO: Quebrada Catacamas cerca de la presa en Montana Pena Blanca, A. Molina R. 8346 (EAP, F, NY). It is possible that this commonly cultivated species is not native in Honduras (although it is so treated here). Because of its uses as a bluing agent in laundering fabric, a blue dye, and a remedy in domestic medicine, it has likely been cultivated for centuries throughout Mexico and Central America. The limits of its native distri- butional range are not known with certainty. Justicia tuxtlensis T. F. Daniel Phenology. Flowering: April: fruiting: April. Distribution and habitats. Mexico, Honduras; moist forests; 200 m. ATLANTIDA: mountain Nombre de Dios between Saladito and San Francisco, A. Molina R. 20851 (EAP, F, NY). This species was recently described from the lowland rain forests on the Gulf slope of southeastern Veracruz in Mexico. Herewith, it is reported from Honduras for the first time. In spite of the apparent geographic disjunction in the range of J. tuxtlensis, its occurrence in Honduras is not surprising. The Caribbean lowlands in Honduras form a discontinuous portion of the moist to wet lowland formations that extend from southeastern Mexico (i.e., Veracruz) to Panama. The collection noted above agrees with the description provided by Daniel (2002), except that the bracts of a pair vary from only slightly heteromorphic to homomorphic (vs. heteromorphic) and the corollas are noted on the label to be pale yellow (vs. whitish). Pollen of the sole Honduran collection (Fig. 5f) also concurs with Mexican collections of the spe- cies (i.e., 3-colporate, 6-pseudocolpate). Additional representative of this species should be sought in the moist to wet forests between the Los Tuxtlas region of Vera- cruz and northern Honduras. Justicia sp. 1 SANTA BARBARA: dry lumbered hillside on hwy San Pedro to Copan at double S curve where it descends rapidly, 168 m, 17 April 1965 (flr, frt), . Dickson 1450 (US). I am unable to associate this collection with a known species of Justicia from northern Latin America. It differs from all other Honduran Justicia by the following combination of characters: dense, antrorse to antrorsely appressed and + evenly dis- posed cauline trichomes; crenate leaf margins; short axillary spikes; triangular bracts 1-2 mm long; equally 5-lobed and glandular pubescent calyces; red-orange and glan- dular pubescent corollas 21-25 mm long; 2-aperturate pollen (Fig. 5d, e) with apertures flanked by 2 rows of insulae; and glandular pubescent capsules 13.5—16.5 mm long. Whether it represents an undescribed species or one that has been overlooked in recent floristic accounts (e.g., the status of several names and species from southern Mexico has yet to be assessed) remains to be determined. Additional collections from Honduras that resemble this plant are also highly desirable. Justicia sp. 2 ATLANTIDA: Campamento Quebrada Grande, ca. 10 km SW of La Ceiba, base of N slope of Pico Bonito, 15°42'N, 86°51'W, 80-100 m, gravel bar along river, moist evergreen forests, 11 May 1993 (fir, frt), R. Liesner 26190 (EAP, MO). 84 CONTR. UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN HERBARIUM VOLUME 24 This collection lacks mature flowers and seeds. It can be distinguished from all other species of Justicia in Honduras by the following combination of characters: tawny-colored, antrorse to antrorsely appressed trichomes concentrated in (but not restricted to) two lines; terminal panicles with axillary spikes; heteromorphic bracts at each spike node with one bract obovate to circular, 3-4 mm wide, and subtending a |-flowered dichasium and with the other bract subulate, less than 0.5 mm wide, and sterile; calyces equally 5-lobed, the lobes with hyaline margins; whitish corollas less than 10 mm long and externally pubescent with eglandular trichomes only; and capsules 7 mm long, pubescent with eglandular trichomes only. Liesner’s collection superficially resembles other species with heteromorphic bracts from Mexico and Central America (Wasshausen & Daniel 1995) and four species from southern Cen- tral America with axillary and terminal, conspicuously bracteate inflorescences and relatively small corollas (Daniel & Wasshausen 1990). It differs from all of these in characters observable on the two specimens studied, however. Additional collections with mature flowers, pollen, and seeds are needed to fully assess its status.

Zuniga 453 (holotype: TEFH!; isotypes: EAP! MO! US!). Although the flowers are noted to be light purple on the label of Hawkin’s collection at MO and the presence of styles suggest that corollas were recently on the plant collected, corollas are not present on the two specimens examined. The label of Hawkins 937 at EAP attributes (erroneously) the collection to Cusuco National Park in Cortés on 3 May 1993. This species differs from all other Mexican and Central American species of Lophostachys (Daniel 1993a) by the following combination of character states: calyx 21-25 mm long, the anterior calyx lobe obovate, apically divided less than one-half the length of the lobe, the apical segments 0.5-3.3 mm long; bracteoles subulate to lance-subulate, 7.5—12 mm long; capsules 11.2-13 mm long, glabrous.

Flowering: May; fruiting: May. Distribution and habitats. Mexico, Guatemala, Belize, Honduras; habitats and elevation unknown. CopAn: Hac. El Limon to El Paraiso, S. Blake 7353 (US). This species was documented from Honduras by Leonard (1936) and is apparently known from there only by Blake’s collection made in 1919. Blake noted on the speci- men label that the corollas were white with maroon-purple spots on the limb. The Honduran species of Odontonema can be identified with the following key: iG Se 2. Bea sessile, at least some (usually most) whorled at inflorescence nodes; rachis near] glabrous or pubescent with appressed eglandular trichomes in lines. O. tubaeforme 2. Dichasia subsessile to pedunculate, at least some (usually most) clearly pedunculate in each inflorescence, opposite at inflorescence nodes; rachis evenly pubescent with erect eglandular trichomes. O. cuspidatum 1. Corolla yellow or white with purplish markings on limb. 3. Inflorescence of dense, unbranched (rarely branched at base), dichasiate spikes or racemes; dichasia mostly whorled at inflorescence nodes; corolla white with purplish markings on limb externally glabrous. O. albiflorum 3. Inflorescence of open panicles of dichasiate racemes; dichasia opposite at inflorescence nodes; corolla yellow, externally pubescent with glandular and eglandular trichomes.

Molina R. & A. Molina 34234 (EAP, MO). Odontonema cuspidatum was previously known from native populations only in Mexico and the West Indies (Daniel 1995c). Standley (1931) and Yuncker (1940) applied this name to plants of O. tubaeforme from Atlantida. The species is sometimes cultivated in other tropical regions, including Honduras. Collections from cultivated plants have been made in the departments of Cortés and Francisco Morazan. None of the collections noted above indicate that the plants were cultivated, and they all appear to represent either native or naturalized populations of the species in Honduras. These plants all have the rachis evenly pubescent with short, erect, and eglandular trichomes; the lower dichasia usually pedunculate; and the corolla red with the throat shorter and narrower than in O. tubaeforme. Gibson (1974) included Odontonema cuspidatum and O. tubaeforme, both red- flowered species, as conspecific with the purple-flowered O. callistachyum (Schltdl. & Cham.) Kuntze, and treated this latter species as occurring in Honduras. Daniel (1995c) recognized all three species and indicated that O. callistachyum was known from native populations only in Mexico, Belize, and Guatemala. Both O. cuspidatum and O. tubaeforme are herein treated as native to Honduras, although the former spe- cies may be represented in the country only by cultivated and naturalized plants. 88 CONTR.

As interpreted here, this species shows pons deribiy: more variation in pubescence than was suggested by Daniel (1995c). For example, the inflorescence rachises vary from virtually glabrous (e.g., Clewell & Cruz 4209) to inconspicuously puberulent (e.g., Liesner 26409, CAS) to conspicu- ously pubescent (e.g., Hawkins 181). Hawkins 18] is also unusual in its exceptionally long (to 27 mm long) corollas and its occurrence at 1680 m elevation. Odontonema hondurense can be distinguished from other species of Odontonema in Honduras by its Pan corollas, which are externally pubescent. Pollen (Fig. 2d, e) of this species is 3-colporate and 6-pseudocolpate, as in most of its Mesoamerican congeners. Odontonema tubaeforme (Bertol.) Kuntze Phenology.

Among Mesoamerican species, it superficially resembles P. verazpazense, which also occurs in Honduras (see below), but can be distinguished from that spe- cies by the following couplet: Herbs to 6 dm tall; young stems with at least some internodes bifariously pubescent with flexuose to recurved trichomes 0.1-0.8 mm long; calyx 2.54 mm long, abaxially pubescent with glandular and eglandular trichomes; corolla (16—) 18-35 mm long; stamens included in corolla tube; style 13-20 mm long. P. verapazense Shrubs to 1.5 m tall; young stems + evenly puberulent with erect trichomes less than 0.05 mm long; calyx 1.3-1.5 mm long, abaxially pubescent with eglandular trichomes only; corolla 9-11.5 mm long; stamens exserted from mouth of corolla; style 2.6—3 mm long. P. liesneri The androecial and gynoecial distinctions noted above may reflect different floral forms of heterostylous species. Heterostyly has been noted among various species of Pseuderanthemum (Daniel 1995b), but it has not been reported in P. verapazense. If P. liesneri is heterostylous, then the two known collections represent the “thrum” form. Cleistogamous flowers, which are also frequent among species of Pseuderanthemum (Daniel 1995a), were not observed on the collections of P. liesneri. Pollen of P. liesneri (Fig. 2h, 1) resembles that reported for other Mexican and Central American species (Daniel 1998). a2 CONTR.

Evans 1547 (EAP, MO Daniel (1995b) tentatively recognized both Pseuderanthemum fasciculatum (Oerst.) Leonard and P. praecox in Chiapas, Mexico. Salvadoran plants were treate as P. fasciculatum (Daniel 2001). Examination of Honduran collections referable to these taxa reveals that plants conforming to P. praecox differ from those conform- ing to P. fasciculatum only by lacking leaves. All Honduran (and Salvadoran) plants are here considered to belong to a single species, P. praecox, until such time as the taxonomy of this genus has been fully studied and resolved. Honduran plants of P praecox differ from those of P. cuspidatum by their generally longer and glandular calyx. Pseuderanthemum verapazense Donn. Sm. Phenology.

In the protologue of Ruellia molinae, Gibson (1973) indicated that the type was Molina 8343 at F and EAP. Because she annotated the specimen at F as the holotype in 1972, it is designated as the lectotype of the species. Gibson (1973) compared R. molinae to R. pereducta Standl. ex Lundell, to which it appears closely related; however, R. molinae 1s indistin- guishable from R. fulgida, and the name R. molinae is here included in the synonymy of that species. This pair of superficially similar species, R. pereducta and R. fulgida, can be distinguished in Honduras by the characters in the following couplet: Axillary dichasia with flowers crowded into a headlike cluster at distal end of peduncle (when sec- ondary peduncles rarely present, these arising from a headlike cluster and terminating in another headlike cluster); peduncles, abaxial surface of calyx lobes, ae capsules conspicuously (and often + densely) pubescent; corolla red; Honduras to South America.

Densely pubescent plants from Honduras have been treated as a distinct species, R. williamsii Leonard [type: Francisco Morazan: drainage of the Rio Yeguare, ca. 14°N and 87°W, near Las Mesas, 900 m, barranco in pine-oak forest, 11 July 1948, L. Wil- liams 14187 (holotype: US!)]. Leonard (1950) noted that R. williamsii is very closely related to R. hookeriana and that additional studies might show it to be merely a form of that species. He distinguished R. williamsii on the basis of its densely pilose younger stems, smaller (up to 4 cm long and 2 cm wide vs. mostly 5-6 cm long and 3 cm wide) leaf blades, and somewhat longer (15 mm long vs. ca. 10 mm long) calyx segments. All of the measurements noted by Leonard for the putative distinctions are encompassed by specimens of R. hookeriana from Chiapas, Mexico (Daniel 1995b). Thus, &. williamsii is herewith included in the synonymy of R. hookeriana. Davidse et al. 35478 from Olancho differs from other individuals of R. hookeriana by its linear- oblanceolate (vs. subulate) calyx lobes. Ruellia inundata H. B. K. Phenology.

Endemic to western Honduras; montane forests; 1700 m. Stenostephanus Nees is a neotropical genus with about 75 species occurring from Mexico to Bolivia. This represents the first report of the genus in Honduras. It can be distinguished from other Honduran genera of Acanthaceae by the following combination of characters: cystoliths present, two stamens with 1-thecous anthers, and 2-porate pollen divided into two gemmate regions by a continuous or interrupted peripheral band. Species of Stenostephanus usually have very restricted distributions, and they tend to occur in cloud forests at relatively high elevations. Hansteinia Oerst. and Habracanthus Nees are now treated as congeneric with Stenostephanus (Daniel 1995a, 1999a; Wasshausen 1999), but many of the nomencla- tural combinations for Central American species have yet to be made. Daniel (1999a) revised the Mexican species; the Central American species are currently being studied. Stenostephanus hondurensis does not conform to any of the 24 currently recognized species of these genera from Mexico and Central America nor does it appear to be conspecific with South American taxa (Leonard 1958; Wasshausen 1999; Wasshausen & Wood 2001; Wood 1988). Superficially, it resembles Habracanthus ruberrimus D.N. Gibson from Guatemala by its more or less flattened to ridge-angled inflorescence peduncles and rachises, its red corollas, and generally similar pollen (Fig. 10c—e). That 100 CONTR.

Yoro: Rio Pijol Valley, 7 km SE of Nueva Esperanza, 15°12'N, 87°35'W, R. Liesner 26675 (EAP, O). A new combination in Stenostephanus is proposed for the species most recently treated as Hansteinia sessiliflora (Durkee 1986). Wood (1988) and Daniel (199Sa) discussed the relationships of these and other genera with two monothecous stamens and biporate pollen. This represents the first report of this species in Honduras. In late April of 2000, I was unsuccessful in relocating the population from which the only known Hondu- ran collection was made in the region southeast of Nueva Esperanza. Morphological characters evident on Liesner’s specimens fall within the range of variation observed on specimens of S. sessilifolius from Costa Rica, although they tend to have more 2005 DANIEL: HONDURAN ACANTHACEAE 101 trichomes on the rachis and peduncles of the inflorescence. Label data on Liesner’s collection describe the corollas as orange. Most plants of S. sessilifolius have corollas that are red dorsally and yellow ventrally. Corollas on some collections from Costa Rica (e.g., Koptur SK-92) are sometimes described as “orange-red,” when it is evi- dent (even from the dried corollas) that they are red dorsally and yellow ventrally. In their dried state, it is not possible to determine the color of the corollas from the sole Honduran specimens. Pollen of S. sessifolius from Honduran plants (Fig. 10a, b) concurs with that of Costa Rican plants. The two species of Stenostephanus in Honduras can be distinguished using the following couplet: Inflorescence peduncles and rachis evenly pubescent; bracteoles linear to triangular-subulate, 0.6-0.8 alyx 1.5-2 mm long; corolla externally pubescent; thecae 3.2-3.8 mm long; pollen with eripheral band baculate to gemmate.

Razisea spicata Oerst —Standley 14158 (F), supposedly collected from moist pine-oak forest at 1600 m at Monte Oscuro in the department of Francisco Morazan, has written across the label, “mixed label, this plant may not be from Honduras.” Lacking additional confirmation of the presence of this spe- cies in Honduras, it is excluded from the acanthaceous flora of the country. As noted above, it might be expected to occur there in moist forests. Ruellia brittoniana Leonard = Ruellia coerulea Morong (Daniel 1995b). Ruellia campestris (Oerst.) Hemsl—This name, based on a fragmentary collection from Costa Rica and not treated by Durkee (1986), has been applied to plants from Honduras.

Gonzdlez & Reznicek (Cyperaceae), previously described as E. montevidensis Kunth forma angustior, is elevated to the rank of species. Its differences with E. montevi- densis and E. dombeyana are discussed. ResuMEN. Eleocharis ignota S. Gonzalez et Reznicek (Cyperaceae), previamente tratada como E. montevidensis Kunth forma angustior, es reconocida a nivel de especie. Se comentan sus diferencias con E. montevidensis y E. dombeyana. During 1991 and 1992, while revising sedges for the upcoming volume of the Flora Novo-Galiciana, Rogers McVaugh found an unknown element of Eleocharis that was provisionally named “E. ignota.” He asked Socorro Gonzalez-E. for her opinion regarding this novelty and invited her to describe it. After collecting more material in Jalisco and reviewing a number of specimens of the complex surrounding E. montevidensis Kunth, Gonzalez-E. concluded, with considerable doubts, that “£. ignota” could represent only a regional form of the variable and widely distributed E. montevidensis and described it as E. montevidensis forma angustior S. Gonzalez & McVaugh (McVaugh 1993). The epithet for the forma reflects the shape of the spikelets, which are longer and relatively narrower than those of other populations of E. montevidensis. Recent studies on Eleocharis subseries Truncatae from Mexico reveal that the name E£. montevidensis has been broadly applied to a complex of species, and that E. montevidensis forma angustior represents one of these. Therefore, this taxon is elevated to the rank of species. Eleocharis ignota S. Gonzdlez & Reznicek, sp. nov. Eleocharis montevidensis forma angustior S.

Eleocharis ignota most closely resembles E. montevidensis; it can be separated from that species by a com- bination of characters: rhizomes ligneous, without long internodes, not long-creep- ing; apex of the upper sheaths truncate (versus truncate to slightly oblique), with a longer, subulate and fragile cusp; spikelets often acute and averaging longer; paler perianth bristles; and lighter, smoother achenes. The characters in which E. ignota differs from E. montevidensis and E. dombeyana Kunth, another widespread member of Eleocharis subseries Truncatae with which E. ignota can be confused, are given in Table 1 and illustrated in Fig 2. Eleocharis dombeyana was excluded from the Flora Novo-Galiciana (McVaugh 1993, p. 368), although Svenson had annotated a speci- men as an anomalous form of this species; this collection (McVaugh 17041, MICH) represents EL. ignota.

A NEW ENDEMIC SPECIES FOR PUERTO RICO: DENDROPHTHORA BERMEJAE (VISCACEAE) J. Kuijt Department of Biology University of Victoria Victoria, British Columbia V8W 3NS5, Canada T. A.

This novelty is similar to D. serpyllifolia (Griseb.) from Hispaniola and Cuba. A key to the four species now known from Puerto Rico is provided. Dendrophthora is a neotropical genus of about 110 species (Kuijt 2000). Beyond the Greater Antilles, it ranges from southern Mexico to Bolivia and is mostly Andean in South America. In the Caribbean, about 32 species are recorded, with major concentrations in Cuba and Hispaniola. Three of the Caribbean species are known from Puerto Rico. The present contribution reports a fourth species from the Cabo Rojo region. Dendrophthora bermejae Kuijt, Carlo & Aukema, sp. nov.—TyPe: PUERTO Rico.

Woodbury s.n. (# 015025) (UPR). Dendrophthora bermejae represents a remarkable endemic apparently restricted to the southwestern Sierra Bermeja and Costa Bermeyja area, where it is presently endangered by residential, commercial, tourist, and agricultural development. It is not known to occur within any protected area. The species appears to be related to D. ser- pyllifolia (Griseb.) Krug & Urb. from Hispaniola and Cuba but, aside from its much larger general stature, is distinct in a number of important respects. Dendrophthora serpyllifolia has leaves that rarely exceed 1 cm in length, with a mucronulate apex, and the placement of foliage leaves is irregular. Dendrophthora bermejae, instead, has leaves to 5 cm in length, more or less rounded at the tip. Dendrophthora serpyllifolia also has cataphylls in several positions, especially on all vegetative laterals and on the lowest inflorescence units of its compound ones (Kuijt 1961); D. bermejae has fewer cataphylls. The flowers of D. serpyllifolia occur in much smaller series (2-3 flowers per fertile bract) than in D. bermejae (to 10 flowers per fertile bract). The sex distribution in D. serpyllifolia is uncertain but the species is probably dioecious; in any case, it does not have the almost invariable, curious distribution of male and female flowers, or the slightly flattened fertile internodes exhibited by the present species. Dendrophthora bermejae shows an unusual variability in several morphological aspects. Some inflorescences and lateral branches bear basal cataphylls, while others do not; we have not found any regularity in this feature except that the individual inflorescences making up a compound arrangement never seem to bear cataphylls. It is common for inflorescences to be associated with the axils of cataphylls, a phenom- enon not known elsewhere in Dendrophthora although known from several species of the closely related Phoradendron (Kuijt 2003). The inflorescences of a compound cluster may be subtended by foliage leaves or not. In one of the collections cited (Carlo et al. 33), the lowest two flowers of a num- ber of female fertile internodes have been replaced by small lateral inflorescences (Fig. 1d). This is probably teratological in nature, and is also occasionally encountered in other species of Dendrophthora and Phoradendron (see Kuijt 1959, Fig. 11c). four species of Dendrophthora known from Puerto Rican may be distin- guished with the following key.

The type specimens in the Herbarium CHDIR of the National Polytechnic Institute in Durango, Mexico, are listed. CUDIR is a regional collection holding more than 42,000 specimens of vascular plants mainly from the Sierra Madre Occidental and the Chihuahuan desert of northern Mexico. Currently 87 types are catalogued, including 9 holotypes, 77 isotypes, and 1 isoneotype. RESUMEN. Se registran los especimenes tipo depositados en el herbario CIIDIR del Instituto Poli- técnico Nacional en Durango, México. CIIDIR es una coleccién regional que cuenta con mas de 42,000 especimenes de plantas vasculares incluidos, principalmente de la Sierra Madre Occidental y del Desierto Chihuahuense. Se tienen catalogados 87 tipos: 9 holotipos, 77 isotipos y 1 isoneotipo. Herbaria are essential for documenting plant diversity and for accurate plan- ning of actions for the sustainable management of natural resources and ecosystems. CIIDIR is a research center for floristic and ecological studies that is part of the National Polytechnic Institute based in Durango, Mexico. The Herbarium CIIDIR was founded in 1981 with a focus on vascular plants. It is the first institutional her- barium in Durango and now houses one of the largest scientific collections in north- western Mexico. In the last 22 years the collection was moved six times within the state of Durango and still does not have a permanent facility. The collection currently comprises more than 42,000 sheets with ca. 8,000 additional specimens awaiting accession. The main families represented in the herbarium are Asteraceae, Poaceae, Leguminosae, and Cyperaceae (Lopez et al. 2001). The importance of these families in the herbarium is indicative of the floristic composition of the state of Durango and reflects the research interests of the curators. Most of the collections are from the northern and central Mexico, particularly from the Sierra Madre Occidental and the Chihuahuan Desert. The remainder includes largely material from other parts of Mexico, as well as a lesser representation from the U.S.A. and South America. A database of the vascular plants of the Mexican state of Durango currently contains more than 28,000 records. Several publications summarize the contents and importance of collections in Mexican herbaria and their potential use in understanding the biodiversity of the country. For example, Rzedowski (1976), and Arreguin and Valenzuela (1986) have published catalogues of the herbaria in Mexico, and Davila and German (1991) described in more detail the collections in the National Herbarium of Mexico. Shet- ler (1973) addressed the importance of recording information about type specimens. More recently, CONABIO (The Mexican Agency of the Understanding and Use of Biodiversity) has made available electronic catalogues that include lists of Mexican 119 120 CONTR. UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN HERBARIUM VOLUME 24 / t+ lA re I herbaria (http: / www conabio. gob.mx/infot conabio go mx/info1 html; http://www. html], taxonomic experts [http: liww bio.gob.mx/inf ion/acttax/doctos/direct html], and taxonomic authorities [http://ww bio.gob.mx/inf ion/acttax/doct html] Information about type specimens deposited in Mexican herbaria is still scarce (Arreguin et al. 1996). In the Appendix we present data from the type specimens housed in the Herbarium CHDIR as of August, 2003. The collection data are pre- sented as complete as possible, and the names of authors follow Villasenor (2001), based on Brummitt and Powell (1992). The Herbarium CIIDIR has cataloged 87 types, including 9 holotypes, 77 isotypes, and 1 isoneotype. More than one third of the taxa represented belong to the Asteraceae (32), and 13 belong to Cyperaceae. In addition, the Herbarium CIIDIR houses at least 78 paratypes, as well as many pho- tographs of types and many specimens collected in type localities (topotypes). ACKNOWLEDGMENTS We thank professors J. Rzedowski and G. Rzedowski (IEB), and the staff at the herbaria of athe University of Texas at Austin and of the University of Michigan for literature donated to CIIDIR. Pro- fessor Rzedowski has enriched the collections at CIIDIR with a large number of type specimens sent in exchange. We also acknowledge Jorge A. Tena and Sandra Tena-Gonzalez for their comments on a draft of the manuscript, and Jose Panero for his review.

JONES IN MEXICO, 1892 Rogers McVaugh Herbarium, University of North Carolina Chapel Hill, North Carolina 27599-3280 Asstracr. Marcus E. Jones was a recognized expert on the Flora of the western part of the United States, and a self-taught geologist, when in 1892 he was commissioned to travel on the Pacific side of Mexico, to look into potential sites for the exploitation of minerals and the possibility of building new railroads to those sites. In his spare time, from mid-April until mid-July, he collected herbarium specimens to a total of about 750 gatherings in several duplicate sets. His collection as a whole is important because he was the first botanist to gather significant samples from a series of localities in south-central Jalisco and adjacent Colima. The primary set of specimens, those from Jones’s private herbarium, now housed at Rancho Santa Ana (RSA-POM), have been somewhat neglected by contemporary specialists. INTRODUCTION Marcus Eugene Jones (1852-1934) was a brilliant, opinionated, controversial, careless, and difficult man who, in the words of his biographer Lee W. Lenz (1986), “above all else [he] was a superb field botanist who traveled over more of the West and for a longer period of time than any other botanist of his day, bridging the eras of travel with a team and wagon and that of the model-T Ford.” The following sum- mation is also from Lenz (1986, p. 199): “To understand Marcus Jones it is necessary to recognize certain facts: he abhorred pretension, deception and pomposity, and was strictly truthful as he under- stood the matter. To him everything was right or wrong, black or white, true or false, there was no place in his life for shades of gray and he had little use for the views of others with whom he disagreed. He was also prone to exaggeration and was given to making sweeping and sometimes unguarded statements, often expressing himself in an unnecessarily crude or caustic manner.” EARLY INTEREST IN BOTANY Jones was interested in plants from the time of his childhood in Iowa. He attended Iowa College (later Grinnell College), where he became proficient in Latin and probably (Lenz 1986, pp. 16, 17) took the classical course of study, which included English, Latin, Greek, Sanskrit, and Anglo-Saxon, as well as geography, mathematics, and “natural philosophy.” He graduated in 1875 and continued his studies, concen- trating on Latin, until 1878, when he was awarded the degree of Master of Arts. While he was in college, Jones began in earnest to collect the local plants in quantity and support himself at least in part by selling sets of duplicate herbarium specimens. By 1878 he was offering sets of 500 species of Iowa plants, which he sold for twenty dollars per set. In the summer of 1878 he moved his base of operations to Colorado, and at about the same time he established an arrangement with an Aus- trian, Karl Keck, who wanted sets of Western plants to sell in Europe. Jones returned to Grinnell in October, reportedly (Lenz 1986, p. 24) with 40,000 specimens, and spent the winter identifying his specimens and making up sets to send to Keck. 127 128 CONTR. UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN HERBARIUM VOLUME 24 For the next few years Jones continued his plant-collecting (along with other activities) in the western States, particularly in Utah, Nevada, California, and Arizona, and also in Baja California. Beyond botany, as early as 1884 his writings began to reflect a concern about the economic development of Utah Territory and the geologic implications of this (Lenz 1986, p. 70). His geological expertise evidently continued to increase, as by 1888 he was being consulted about the validity of mining claims in Utah. He was consulted by the Territorial governors of Utah and Arizona on matters relating to the water supply and the reclamation of arid lands, and increasingly he became known as a reputable geologist. His botanical work was treated with some respect by his contemporaries, particu- larly for the enormous energy he showed as a field-collector. Although some bota- nists were patient with his requests for identifications of his “new” discoveries in the relatively unexplored “West,” he became increasingly frustrated by what he took to be a condescending attitude on the part of the “Eastern establishment.” He felt that the “Eastern” botanists, especially those at New York and at Harvard, looked down on his work on “Western” plants, although they had had little or no field-experience with them and did not understand the geographical implications as he did. Perhaps unduly influenced by his prejudices, and always highly confident of his own abilities, he turned more and more toward identifying his own plant-specimens before making them up into sets of duplicates for sale or exchange. After about 1890, and several papers in the Brandegees' short-lived journal Zoe, and elsewhere, Jones began to edit and publish his “Contributions to Western Botany” (the later ones printed on his own press), which made altogether a sizeable volume, 18 papers devoted first and foremost to the publication of the names and descriptions of new species. According to Lenz (1986, p. 237) Jones published the “relatively modest number” of about 793 taxa between 1881 and 1933. “Relatively modest” was in comparison with some of Jones’s contemporaries, e.g., Thomas How- ell (who was credited with 3290 new taxa), E. L. Greene (“some 3000 new taxa”), Wm. Suksdorf (1690), and Aven Nelson (849). During the first part of his career, Jones concentrated geographically on the Great Basin of the western United States. When still relatively young he became well known as an expert on the floras of the western states, partly through the distribu- tion of multiple sets of his specimens. At the same time he gradually became known as a field geologist. Late in his life he developed an interest in the vascular flora of Mexico, and undertook special collecting trips to the western part of the mainland in 1926, 1927, 1928 and 1930. His published papers, especially the later ones like his 18th Contribution to Western Botany (1933) show that he studied the collections in depth and identified most of them to his own satisfaction, but not always to the satisfaction of others. COLLECTING IN MEXICO, 1892 In 1890 (Lenz 1986, pp. 77, 91) Jones was approached by Gen. W. J. Palmer, who after the American Civil War had returned to private life and become “one of the most enterprising of the early Western railroad men,” who also organized and devel- oped a number of mining towns along the railroads. Among his accomplishments was the successful completion of the Mexican National Railway from Laredo to Mexico City. Jones did some work for him in 1890 and 1891. On April 7, 1892, Jones [while in Salt Lake City] received from Gen. Palmer a telegram asking him to go immediately to Mexico “to make an examination of Sierra Mojada, Zacatecas, Guanahuato [sic], 2005 MCVAUGH: MARCUS E. JONES IN MEXICO, 1892 129 and the properties along the Mexican Nat[ional] R. R. from Irapuato to Manzanillo.” Another version, in Jones’s own words (Lenz 1986, p. 91) says that on this trip he was to study the mines and ore production of the leading mining camps in [western] Mexico and report on them for three proposed railroad routes. His first destination was the established mining district at Sierra Mojada in far-western Coahuila. According to Lenz (1986, p. 93) Jones wrote of the 1892 collections, “[J. N.] Rose named most of them. I put up three sets, one at the U.S. National [Herbarium], one my own, and I presume the third [to be at the]Missouri Botanical Garden.” [There is also a substantial set at MSC, the herbarium of Michigan State University, East Lansing.| His private herbarium, including the undistributed part of his own set of the 1892 plants, was acquired by Pomona College in 1923. A survey conducted during the latter part of the year 2003 shows that perhaps four-fifths of the numbered gatherings are still represented at POM-RSA, but a very large number of these have never been more than casually identified, and many have been grossly misidentified by Jones or someone else. If Rose actually named a large percentage of the specimens, Jones must have felt it was superfluous to go back at the time and make his own decisions on their identities. Because of his obligation in 1892 to his (geological) sponsor, the hours when he could “botanize” were limited. In spite of that he managed to amass a botanical collection of some 750 gatherings, the majority of them with several duplicates. He collected specimens from about 30 localities. The counts listed below are presum- ably smaller than the actual totals, as no more than four-fifths of Jones’s numbers have been located at POM or elsewhere. The importance of his botanical collections derives from his established practice of trying to “collect the whole flora” at each locality (as he said of himself), and secondly because he was the first (and often the last) collector to visit the localities in question. On the upper slopes of the Nevado de Colima, for example, where he preceded by one year the great collector of Mexican plants, C. G. Pringle, Jones made at least 85 gatherings in two days, including many alpine and subalpine species. The numbered collections of 1892 include at least 85 from the massif of the Nevado de Colima (Jal.), 75 from the Sierra Mojada (Coah.), 65 from La Palma (Jal.), 50 from Chiquilistlan (Jal.), 45 from Santa Cruz (Jal., near Tapalpa), 40 from Colima (Col.), 30 from Ojo Caliente (Zac.), and at least 25 from each of the following: Pihuamo (Jal.), “Sacoalco” (Jal.), Tapalpa (Jal.), Ferreria de Tula (Jal.), Manzanillo (Col.), and what Jones called the Rio Cuvianes (Jal., Col.). At the end of the trip Jones numbered the collections, sent some of them to specialists for determination, named the others as best he could and sent out several sets of the duplicates to his customers. Authors of recent monographic studies of Mexican genera or families of plants have mostly overlooked the Pomona herbarium, which remains a valuable source of information about the vascular flora of south-central Jalisco and adjacent Colima as it was a little more than a century ago. As far as I can determine, Jones paid little attention to his 1892 collections after his first distribution of some of the sets. At that time he had no particular interest in the flora of Mexico, except that he had done some plant-collecting in the arid north- west. In the years 1892-1893 his interest was still primarily in the Great Basin and adjoining areas. It seems that he was also too busy with other matters to go back to the details of his Mexican collection. Furthermore, in 1892 his primary responsibil- ity was to search for potential sites where ores might be exploited profitably and for potential railroad routes to these sites. As McVaugh (1972, p. 352) noted, “In the typewritten itinerary prepared by Jones...and now at Pomona College, he said [p. 21]: 130 CONTR. UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN HERBARIUM VOLUME 24 botany was a side issue and I had to get specimens as my other business would allow. For this reason I got only about 5 specimens of a kind, and never could work up a flora as was my wont.” [See above for a slightly different version of this story]. Jones kept a diary during most of his field excursions, and later dictated a chrono- logical account of his travels and exploration, which was published [Leafl. West. Bot. 10 (no. 12): 193-236. 29 Nov 1965] under the title of Botanical Exploration of Marcus E. Jones, 1876 to 1919: an Autobiographical Account. This was apparently a version of what Lenz (1986, p. 11) cited frequently in abbreviated form (as BM), and called “the best of the autobiographical accounts but flawed by errors of fact and transcription and [which] must be used with caution.” By 1893 Jones had begun to be absorbed in his long-time study of Astragalus, and much of his attention must have been devoted to the preparation of his papers for Zoe that were published in that year. In 1894 he spent the field season (March to October) in Utah, where he was employed as a “Special Field Agent” of the U.S. Department of Agriculture (Lenz 1986, pp. 253-290). By that time his two-year-old Mexican collections must have been low on his list of priorities, where they subse- quently remained, with few exceptions. NUMBERING OF THE 1892 COLLECTIONS Jones made a practice throughout his career of collecting several or many duplicate examples of each gathering and arranging these in sets for sale. Many of his collections from the earlier years were not serially numbered, or at least the numbers were not mentioned in publication (see Lenz, 1986, pp. 403-465, “New Taxa Described by Jones”), but beginning with the Mexican trip of 1892 he eventu- ally gave numbers to most of the gatherings, though he seems to have attached little importance to this. The numbering of the collections of 1892 is of some general interest. Now, at the beginning of the 21st Century, scientifically-inclined collectors generally number their gatherings serially and chronologically, beginning with No. 1 and continuing a life- time series as a unique record. Such a series constitutes a valuable historical source for subsequent investigators who may need to know the exact whereabouts of the collector in time or space, or both. In 1892 the numbering of collections was already a long-established practice, but individual collectors often began their numbering anew with each field-season, and editors (who often were the same botanists that had named the plants) felt free to disregard these “field numbers” and assign new numbers based on some preferred “Natural System” of classification. A victim of this latter method was the great collector Charles Wright, whose work with the Mexican Boundary Survey was described by Asa Gray in two good-sized volumes (Gray 1852, 1853), but whose precise dates and collecting localities were mostly unknown until they were elucidated by Elizabeth Shaw (1987) on the basis of Wright’s field-numbers as he had recorded them elsewhere. For more than 30 years (ever since I began to notice Mexican specimens col- lected in 1892 by Marcus E. Jones and housed at US, MO, MSC or GH, or when I noticed citations of such specimens in the literature of systematic botany), I have been “keeping book” on this collection as a part of the record of botanical exploration in Nueva Galicia. | published a general paper on the latter (McVaugh 1972), in which three pages of text were devoted to Jones’s trip of 1892, and included a transcript of his diary from 22 May through 18 July. At that time my record of the collections 2005 MCVAUGH: MARCUS E. JONES IN MEXICO, 1892 131 made by Jones was very incomplete—only about one quarter of the numbered col- lections had surfaced and most of the numbers were between 1 and 500, although in memoranda Jones recorded that his collection included numbers as high as 752, and I had seen no. 769. About half of the available information was in a list of collections accessioned at the U.S. National Herbarium (US), which came to me through the kindness of George Russell. In August 2003 I enlisted the help of Curator Steve Boyd at RSA-POM. He very kindly suggested the name of a member of the herbarium staff, Lisa M. Rojas, who spent many hours during the rest of that year and into the next, searching for the original set of specimens from Jones’s herbarium, recording the data on each one, and making digital images of the specimens for my study. Thanks chiefly to Ms. Rojas, and also to Michael Denslow and Gary Wallace, we now have a record of about four-fifths of the numbers, including many of the higher ones (above 500). Before the receipt of the data gathered by Ms. Rojas and collaborators, I had no reliable way to guess how the numbers were assigned to the Jones collections of 1892. The first hundred numbers, seemingly chosen at random, include several dated as of 19 April, when Jones began to collect in Coahuila, several from 13 July when he was on his way home to Utah, and many from intervening dates and unrelated localities in May and June. This seems effectively to rule out a strictly chronological arrangement, and gives no clue to any other arrangement. One principal scenario suggests itself. While Jones was in the field, traveling on foot or by wagon, or on muleback, botanizing when he could find the time, camping in open mountainous country, trying to collect in several sets, make sure the speci- mens were dried expeditiously (even during rainy periods) and preserved thereafter, he had neither the time nor the facilities to consider making labels as he went along, or even to arrange the specimens in any way. It seems likely that the most he could do was to bundle up his specimens from each locality as soon as they dried, and write the locality and date on each bundle. When Jones returned to the United States (perhaps to the National Herbarium in Washington, D.C., where J. N. Rose “named most of them’’), there must have been a grand opening of 25 to 50 or more bundles, and a beginning of random numbering, perhaps after the selection of a sample of species and genera already known to Rose (or to Jones), or for submission to a specialist The numbers from one to eleven (no. 3 is missing and no. 2 is applied to two differ- ent species) include, in order, members of the families Clethraceae, Myrsinaceae, Legu- minosae, Valerianaceae, Polygonaceae, Dioscoreaceae, Piperaceace, Melastomataceae, Capparidaceae, Loranthaceae, and Malpighiaceae. This seems to rule out the better- known Natural Systems of classification as bases for numbering Jones’s collections. On the other hand, the numbers from 128 to 138, from seven different localities and collected on seven different days, are all members of the Rosaceae except no. 132 (a species of Casearia in the Flacourtiaceae) and no. 133 (Ximenia parviflora in the Olacaceae), either of which might have been taken by Jones as “rosaceous.” Further, the specimens from No. 141 to 216 are all members of the Leguminosae, except for about six scattered through the long series. Soon it must have become evident to Jones that in families like the Leguminosae there were so many specimens that it would be most efficient to sort the entire collection by plant-family and proceed with the identifications, species by species, without having to repeat the labor of keying out the same species more than once. Once the entire collection had been sorted to the family level, it would have been comparatively simple to arrange the bundles and assign numbers more or less [32 CONTR. UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN HERBARIUM VOLUME 24 in accord with a system like that used by J. M. Coulter in his contemporary “Botany of western Texas” (Contr. U.S. Natl. Herb. 2: [i-iv], v, 1-588. 1891-1894). A scan of the list of Jones’s collections shows that the numbers follow Coulter’s system rather closely (although with many unusual intercalations) until the end of the Pterido- phytes at No. 542. Notable are the Cactaceae, which were numbered 239 to 258: the Euphorbiaceae (nos. 411-435 including some misidentifications), the showy-flowered Monocots (nos. 447-473), and ferns or fern-allies (nos. 497 to 542, except for a few scattered numbers: the dates of collection ranging from 19 April to 13 July). I suspect that this concluded the numbering of the collections of 1892 that were to be distributed in sets. It is not clear why Jones discontinued the sorting (if that is really what he did), with some 200 numbers still unlabelled and mostly unstudied. Labels for numbers below No. 550 are commonly typed or (except for the name of the plant) handwritten by Jones himself. Above no. 550 I have noted no more than two (Nos. 592, “Lake near San Miguel, 6 May” and 643, “Rio Cuvianus Tuxpan”’) that are in the hand of Jones. There may be others, of course, among the specimens that have not been recovered. Among the higher numbers various unrelated specimens from a single locality are mostly grouped in short or long series, e.g., nos. 550-567 are apparently all from Ojo Caliente, Zac., where Jones collected on the 9th of May, and nos. 601-638 are apparently all from the Sierra Mojada, Coahuila, 19-21 April. The labels on these are mostly in the hand of P. A. Munz, evidently copied from original notes by Jones, and the locality is variously written (as Jones may well have labelled his bundles) as “Sierra Mojada Mts.,” “Sierra Mojada, Mex.,” “Mojada, Mex.” or merely “Mojada.” Nos. 685-700 (as far as these have been recovered) are dated either 13 or 14 July, with locality written as “Volcano of Colima,” “Nevado de Colima,” or “Volcan, Mex.,” and the data again are in the hand of Dr. Munz. Similarly, nos. 735-753 (as far as known) are dated 7,8, or 9 June, all in the hand of Munz, all from La Palma, Jalisco. The sup- position is that when the Jones herbarium came to Pomona College, Dr. Munz took upon himself the work of finishing the labelling that Jones had left unfinished at his untimely death. MEXICAN COLLECTIONS, 1926-1930 Jones was 74 years of age when in 1926 he began a series of four major collecting trips that resulted in many hundreds of Mexican specimens and a large number of new taxa based on his own collections. His itineraries in 1926, 1927, 1928, and 1930 were summarized in tabular form by Morton (1945, pp. 89-91, q. v. below). McVaugh (1972, pp. 252-253) published a brief narrative summary of Jones’s work in Nayarit and Jalisco in 1927 and 1930. His work in Mexico in 1892 has mostly gone unnoticed, except for the publication of excerpts from his diary from May 22 to July 18, the period of his stay in Nueva Galicia (McVaugh 1972, pp. 250-252). The great majority of the miscellaneous new names published by Jones for Mexican plants first appeared in his Contribution no. 18 (1933), and earlier in smaller numbers in Contributions no. 12 (1908), and no. 15 (1929). His work on the Mexican flora was examined in detail in a pair of substantial papers published in 1945 by two well-regarded authors (Morton, C. V. Mexican phanerogams described by M. E. Jones, Contr. U.S. Natl. Herb. 29: 87-116; Blake, S. F Asteraceae described from Mexico and the southwestern United States by M. E. Jones, 1908-1935, Contr. U.S. Natl. Herb. 29: 117-137). Both Morton and Blake were primarily concerned with the Jonesian type-specimens, and 2005 MCVAUGH: MARCUS E. JONES IN MEXICO, 1892 133 the identities of new names proposed by Jones and based on his own material. Both authors dealt in detail with Jones’s Mexican collections from 1926 to 1930. Neither Blake nor Morton, unfortunately, nor Jones himself, studied in detail the first large collection that Jones made on the mainland of western Mexico in 1892. Relatively few types have been found among the 1892 collections. The papers by Blake and Morton include many critical notes, and Blake’s con- tribution is noteworthy for its long discussions on geographical and nomenclatural points. Both authors felt free to point out the shortcomings of Jones’s work. Blake (op. cit. 121) was inclined to blame “Jones’ inability to identify his own material from a region with which he was not familiar, [so that] every one of the 25 allegedly new species of Asteraceae he described from his 1930 collection in Jalisco is a synonym of an older species, as is also the single species from his 1892 collection, and...12 of the 26 were described by him under wrong genera, in two cases in wrong tribes, in 6 others in wrong subtribes.” Morton’s comments (1945, p. 87), severe to the point of harshness, are relevant here: “Jones’ herbarium and library facilities were not wholly adequate for work on the Mexican flora, and his previous experience had scarcely qualified him for critical research on tropical or subtropical plants. It seems likely, moreover, that his eyesight was not very good at the time, for there is little evidence in his descriptions that careful dissections were made for any of his new species. Consequently, it is no surprise to find that his work on the Mexican flora is poor..." [Editorial comment by McVaugh, 2004: It may well have been true that Jones had some diminished vision as he neared 80 years of age, from 1926 to 1930, but no such a deficiency is evident in his earlier papers. His name Calamovilfa poaeformis, for example (Contr. West. Bot. 14: 9. 1912, based on Jones 478a (POM 115352), was ostensibly a new combination based on Cinnastrum poaeformis Fourn. (Pl. Mex. 2: 90, ex descr. 1886), but Jones made clear that although he had taken up the epithet from Fournier’s, “description...my species shall rest on my characters given below”; to this he added a very detailed 16-line description]. As I read this, looking back from almost 60 years after Morton and Blake (1945) enumerated the very large numbers of errors made by Jones, and having the insight on Jones’s character that was provided by Lenz, it is not unreasonable to suppose that when Jones went over his own collections in some haste, and found something unfamiliar to him, he decided it must be new. Exactly the same story has gone the rounds with reference to E. D. Merrill and P. C. Standley, with the difference that each of them was already a recognized world-expert on the flora he was studying.

Crossing experiments have shown, however, that hybrids between Oe. pubescens and Oe. laciniata are sterile, and that chromosome pairing at meiosis is irregular. Dietrich & W. L. Wagner (Syst. Bot.

Blake states that “This specimen [presumably the one at US] was correctly identified by Dr. B. L. Robinson, who is quoted by Jones, but Jones nevertheless proceeded to describe it as a new species.” The accounts published by Blake (1945) and Morton (1945) imply an excess of irresponsible “discoveries” of many “new taxa” by Jones over a period of many years, and emphasize his sometimes gross misidentifications of plants from Mexico and elsewhere. The above list of novelties from the collection of 1892 does not suggest that Jones was a “splitter” basing his names on single or trivial characteristics, but that his decisions were sometimes made without adequate study of the literature and of existing herbarium material. In his earlier papers Jones described various new taxa from different parts of Mexico. These do not all show Jones as a poor systematist, rather as a perceptive but idiosyncratic and hasty one. Argus (Syst. Bot. Monog. 52: 52. 1997) treated Salix jaliscana as a synonym of S. bonplandiana H.B. K., but in the forested arroyos in Jalisco where I have seen it, it does not look like the ordinary drooping willows of stream banks. Standley (Contr. U.S. Natl. Herb. 23: 1135. 1924) accepted Fraxinus nummularis as distinct but thought it was probably a depauper- ate dry-land form of the more widespread F. greggii A. Gray. Woodson (in annota- tions, 1952), relegated four Jonesian species of Asclepias, respectively to A. pringlei (Greenm.) Woodson, A. scaposa Vail, A. angustifolia Schweigger, and A. rosea H. B. K. The plants described by Jones were not merely individual variants—they were recognized species that already had names. In the 1890s it would have been extremely difficult for Jones (or Rose) to identify four milkweeds correctly. Of the four species that Jones described in his Contribution no. 18 (1933), viz., Hymenocallis jaliscensis, Apium depressum, Arracacia tapalpae, and Vernonia viarum, Hymenocallis jaliscensis was accepted by Baum (in McVaugh, FI. Novo-Gal. 15: 214. 1989). The two umbelliferous species were misidentified, one as to species, the other as to genus. Blake noted (1945, p. 124), that Jones was aware that B. L. Robinson had already named his Vernonia specimen no. 288 as V. deppeana, but nevertheless proceeded to describe it as a new species. Lenz pointed out more than once that Jones was not by nature a “splitter,” and this is nowhere shown better than by his work on the genus Astragalus, which was his major effort. Jones’s monographic work on Astragalus, beginning about 1893 and culminat- ing in 1923 in his Revision of the North-American Species of Astragalus (288 pages + index, synonymy and plates. Salt Lake City, privately printed), shows that his attitude toward new taxa was not always casual. Rupert Barneby, the most prestigious student of American legume-taxonomy in the 20th century, thought well of it (Mem. N. Y. Bot. Gard. 13: 6. 1964) when he wrote: “Jones’s Revision initiated a new era in the systematics of Astragalus, an era in which the search for natural evolutionary relationships between species and between groups of species began to replace emphasis on similarities in a small, arbitrarily chosen set of morphological characters. The book is full of invaluable information, but is nevertheless an exasperating work. To the novice in Astragalus the book is impenetrable [because of the polychotomous keys], 138 CONTR. UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN HERBARIUM VOLUME 24 but to the advanced student it is richly rewarding... In his day Jones knew more about Astragalus than any man alive, but a volatile impatience with details of presentation tends to obscure that fact.... His opinions on [species of] Astragalus, as formulated in the Revision, have almost all been vindicated by subsequent scrutiny” [emphasis by McVaugh, 2004]. On the other hand, Jones’s later floristic papers on a Mexican flora that was unfamiliar to him (Jones 1929, 1933; Blake 1945; Morton 1945), deal with a plethora of what he took to be new taxa. Morton and Blake between them, for example, cited and evaluated 60 (!) new taxa published by Jones (in Extr. from Contr. West. Bot. 18, 1933), the names almost all typified by specimens collected in a period of about two weeks, November 13-28, 1930, in the barrancas near Guadalajara (a few from the vicinity of the nearby RR Station at Orendain). As I stated (1972, p. 253), the specimens had been taken from “one of the best-studied localities in Mexico.” The barrancas near Guadalajara had been visited by many competent collectors (ec, Sessé & Mocino in 1791; Galeotti, 1835-1837: Gregg, 1849; Palmer, 1886; Pringle many times from 1888 to 1908; Rose & Painter, 1903). In 1930-1933, it would have been naive, or rash, or supremely self-confident, to suggest that 60 taxa (representing about one-eighth of all the collections from that locality) might be new to Science. Jones’s collections of 1892 were never enumerated by him as a unit. As far as I can determine, he proposed about 13 new taxa (including two new varieties) based on those collections, proposals spread out over 40 years. As noted above, it seems that he was too busy with his other preferred research, from 1893 through the nineties and well into the 20th century, to go back and study the details of his 752 Mexican collections (his estimate of the number), After the the field season (March to October) of 1894 was spent in Utah, where Jones was employed as a “Special Field Agent” of the U.S. Department of Agriculture (Lenz 1986, pp. 253-290), his two-year-old Mexican collections must have been low on his list of priorities, and subsequently remained there, with few exceptions. TRAVELS IN MEXICO IN 1892 Jones left Salt Lake for Mexico on April 11, stopped over in Denver and again at San Marcial, Socorro Co., New Mexico Territory, where he bought a map and a Span- ish dictionary. He was in Rincén, Dofia Ana Co., New Mexico on April 15, at least long enough to collect one specimen (Zoe 3: 291. Jan 1893). He continued toward the Sierra Mojada, Coah., by a branch railroad from Escalon in the southeastern corner of Chihuahua. He left Escalon at 6 a.m. on the 18th and reached the mines at Sierra Mojada at 10 a.m. He found it very dry there. He walked two miles up to the upper town, “botanized all day” and part of the next, and returned to the junction at Escalon on the 20th, presumably having completed his survey of the mines on the 19th. Jones’s knowledge of Spanish was spotty. He seems to have managed in the Mexican countryside most of the time, but his spelling of place-names and other names was often not one sanctioned by the dictionary. See his Beriazillos or Berrozil- los for Berriosabal, Bota for El Bote, moso for mozo, Pastorilla for Pastoria, Sacoalco and Sapotlan for Zacoalco and Zapotlan, Salcillo for Saucillo and, as recently sug- gested by Thomas F. Daniel, Linora for La Noria de los Angeles. During a part of his 1892 trip he had a helper whom he identified only as “Dil- lon.” Lenz (1986, p. 92) says that Dillon was hired as an interpreter. Jones mentioned him in the diary on June 28, when he paid him one dollar. On July 4th it was $2. On 2005 MCVAUGH: MARCUS E. JONES IN MEXICO, 1892 139 June 30th, and again on July 2nd and July 8th he was paid $5 (“He has become very tiresome”). On the Sth he received $10, on the 7th $32, and on the 9th $50. At this point “Dillon decided to leave me here and return to Mexico, finding at last that he was of no service to me, a fact that I learned a month ago.” It would be interesting to know the nature of the original financial arrangement between Jones and Dillon. According to Lenz (1986, p. 397) Jones reached the city of Zacatecas on April 21, traveling on the main line of the railroad toward the city of Mexico. Figure 1 shows Jones’s principal collecting localities in Zacatecas and southward. On the 22nd he visited “the great hacienda or mill below Zacatecas.” He collected nos. 578-583 at Zacatecas on April 23 (Lenz 1986, p. 397), but only two of these have been recovered. On the 26th he set out for Casualidad, about 30 km E of Zacatecas near the border between the States of Zacatecas and San Luis Potosi. A railroad line to Casualidad had been proposed but not built, so Jones travelled in a mule-drawn wagon. He arrived in the evening of April 26. He said “It was a region of rolling hills and no vegetation but yuccas and cactus and thorny Leguminosae.” He reported visiting the mines on the 27th and in the afternoon “Visited the lead mines (3) of the Potosi Mts. Collected some plants.” Cerro Potosj (not to be confused with the very much greater peak of the same name in Nuevo Leon) is on or very close to the Zacatecas-San Luis Potosi{ boundary, almost directly east of Zacatecas. There are few available data pertaining to Jones’s next weeks around the city of Zacatecas, a place already long-known for the enormous quantities of silver taken from its mines. Presumably Gen. Palmer was interested rather in new sources of valu- able minerals, not excluding silver. Lenz (1986, p. 91) says of Jones, “From [April 21] until May 18, he examined mines and botanized in the general vicinity of the city [of Zacatecas]... He reached Mexico City by train on May 29.” We know from Jones’s specimens and his diaries, and from an account of his travels that he dictated many years later, that he took a side-trip of about two weeks, beginning from Ojo Caliente (ca. 40 km SE of Zacatecas), into the arid high plains farther east, camping as he said “among the yuccas.” In another place he wrote that Ojo Caliente, Pastorilla, Linora, and Ramos are all in the same region southeast of the city of Zacatecas. In 1892 Ojo Caliente was the last station on a railroad line to the southeast of the city of Zacatecas and a logical place from which to set off for the mining areas further east and southeast, where the States of Zacatecas, Aguascalientes, and San Luis Potosi adjoin. Including Ojo Caliente (Zac.), the localities most often named in Jones’s diaries and other papers are Pastoria (“Pastorilla” of Jones), Zac. (about 20 km SE of Ojo Caliente); Ramos, S. L. P.; and “Linora” (I take this to be Jones’s ver- sion of [La] Noria de Angeles, Zac., which is about 10 km S of El Carro, Zac. El Carro in turn lies about 15 km [8 miles” according to Jones] E of Pastoria). As Lenz tells (1986, p. 347), on April 28th Jones was at the “Corkhills mine” and “later all the folks went with us to Las Animas and left us. Then drove to Covison.” On the 29th (Jones diary), “Mr. Foreman took me over to La Paz and young Portus [?Portis] showed me through the Covison mine. p.m. drove to Ojo Caliente by 3 p.m.” He was in Ojo Caliente, April 29, 30; [presumably on May 1, he], “Rode from Ojo Caliente 15 m. to Pastorilla [Pastoria] by noon where we found much lead... p.m. rode to Linora 15 m.” May 2 [he collected] no. 228, no. 568; May 3, rode [from Linora] to Ramos, S. L. P. [the settlement and the mine of the same name], 18 mi from Pastorilla; May 4 rode to Salinas, S. L. P. (SE of Ramos), collected nos. 572-574; he was in Ramos May 5, left Ramos at 7 a.m. on May 6, rode to El Carro, (Zac.), visited the San Miguel quicksilver deposits at San Miguel and at a “lake near San Miguel” collected at least nos. 157 and 585-592, May 6-7; on May 7 left for Pastorilla ca. “8 140 CONTR.

JONES IN MEXICO, 1892 141 mi W of El Carro,” and on May 9 he was back in Ojo Caliente to collect nos. 151 and no. 158. It would be interesting to know how much time he spent in prospecting for minerals, aside from lead on May 1 and quicksilver on May 6. On May 9, Jones went to Berriozabal (“Bereazillos”), a station on the main line of the railroad ca. 10-12 km SW of Ojo Caliente [which was not on the main line but the end of track ona alae line from Zacatecas], “botanized all day” and reached Zacatecas by train a Lenz (1986, p. 303) ae that on May 14 Jones was at “Bota” (El Bote, a sta- tion on the main line of the railroad), ca. 5 km NW of Zacatecas. On the 15th Jones collected no. 614 (Nama hispidum, at POM) at “Santa Rosalia, Mex.,” presumably near Zacatecas. Collections from around Zacatecas include no. 585, May 16, and no. 123, June 23. His travels after leaving Zacatecas have been described by McVaugh (1972, pp. 250-252) and by Lenz (1986, pp. 91-93). Jones travelled by rail from Zacatecas to México, D. F., on May 19. He contin- ued by rail to Irapuato, Gto., where he spent Sunday (May 22) before continuing to Guadalajara, Jal., on the 23rd and Sayula on the 25th. There he stayed for two days, assembling what he needed for an overland pack trip beyond the railroad, “over the Tapalpa Mountains to Chiquilistlan.” Evidently his instructions from General Palmer had indicated some mineral deposits of special importance in the vicinity of Chiquilistlan, which is a small well- established town, 20-25 km north and a little west of Tapalpa and separated from it by high steep forested ridges. In Sayula Jones hired a “moso” [mozo; a muleteer; an arriero] and 4 mules and set out for Tapalpa at 6 a.m. on the 27th. As he said, “the ascent to 9000° on the mts. is steep” [but his estimate of the altitude was high—the road-summits are closer to 7000 feet (2100-2200 m)]. Sayula lies below, at the level of a series of shallow and seasonally dry lake-beds, and even now the improved road to the forested mountains around Tapalpa is very steep and tortuous. Evidently Jones reached Tapalpa by midday. He went to the nearby rancho of Ferreria [de Tula] [some 12-15 km northeast of Tapalpa] “in p.m. Saw the good iron works at Ferreria. Slept there. The manager was very kind.” On the following day (May 28) Jones left Ferreria for Chiquilistlan, “and reached there in p.m. with guide.” I infer that his guide took him by some direct route north- westerly, not via Tapalpa as the modern highways go. [Lenz (1986, p. 312) says that Jones was in Chiquilistlan on May 13th, but other records show that he was in or FIG. 1 continued Contour lines are approximated at 500, 1000, and 1500 m above sea level and up to 3000 m on the Nevado de Colima. The river, in the valley that extends northward from the ocean (where it forms the boundary between Colima and Michoacan), is known successively as the Rio Coahuayana, Rio Tuxpan, or (as Jones knew it) Rfo Cuvianes. Localities where plants were collected in April and up to mid-May, in New Mexico, Coahuila, San Luis Potosf, and extreme eastern Zacatecas, I studied less assiduously and did not map all of them Localities marked by dots are those from which Jones obtained a significant quantity of plant speci- mens (usually 25 gatherings or more). Five are in southern Zacatecas, one in San Luis Potosi, the others in Jalisco or Colima. A few less-productive localities are shown, because they are difficult to locate on published maps. Guadalajara, Jal., is shown because it could be reached by railroad and was the center whence Jones set out for the south Most of the localities discussed and mapped here are to be found on the Map of Hispanic America [at] 7: 1, 000, 000, published by the American Geographical Society, and in the index to that map (Publ. 0.5, Vol. 2, Geographical Names in Mexico. U.S. Govt. Printing Office, 1944). A few additional localities are discussed in the present text. 142 CONTR. UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN HERBARIUM VOLUME 24 near Zacatecas on that day.] He spent the next few days in and near Chiquilistlan, looking at mines with the cooperation of the Gerente, a Mr. Vasques [? Vazquez) (see MeVaugh 1972, p. 250). May 30 and 31 he visited “3 or 4 of the mines of Vasques and slept at the Santa Maria. Fine scenery and deep cafions.” On the 31st he returned from the Santa Maria mine and visited the Vasques hacienda. On June 1 Jones interrupted his stay at Chiquilistlan in order to visit iron and mercury mines at a place he called Salcillo (or Salsillo), where he spent the night at a ranch, On the 2nd he “went over from Salsillo and saw the rest of the mercury mines and the ‘Colorado’ iron. Then returned to Chiquilistlin and went over near the Santoninia and saw another iron mine, on the opposite (n.) side of the river.” The location of Jones’s “Salsillo” is not entirely clear, as I find nothing in his notes about distance or direction from Chiquilistlan. Lenz (1986, p. 374) equated it with El Saucillo, [Jalisco], which he located in the State of Zacatecas, “about 18 miles north- west of Zacoalco [de Torres].” This is apparently the same El Saucillo that is about 10 km north of Chiquilistlan, in the same river valley (McVaugh 1972, p. 350). It may well have been Jones’s locality, as McVaugh (1972) agreed. For another possible locality, see under “Saucillo” in the list of localities below. Back in Chiquilistlan on June 3rd, Jones left rather belatedly for Santa Cruz. Lenz (1986, p. 378) says that Santa Cruz was about 12 miles south-southeast of Ameca. The settlement at that point is Santa Cruz de las Flores, but it seems doubt- ful that the Santa Cruz of Jones is the same. In his journal he described his trip from Chiquilistlan: “traveled all day [apparently south-westwardly], & stopped at a ranch 6 m. east. Country very rugged & breaks down to the west.” He reached Santa Cruz at 10 a.m. on the 4th, “Visited 3 mines in p.m. No good. Alt. 2650° [ca. 900 m].” June Sth being Sunday, Jones spent the day quietly. “Went down to the river to bathe.” The information that he gives does not seem to apply to Santa Cruz de las Flores, which is nearly north of Chiquilistlan, across the mountains in the basin of the Rio de Ameca where the drainage is toward the north, at an elevation of about 1500 m. I suggest that his Santa Cruz may have been the place shown on the AGS map at 1/1, 000, 000, sheet NF 13, ca. 30 km (airline) SW of Tapalpa in the valley of one of the upper tribu- taries of the Rio de Armeria, at an elevation of less than 1000 m, where the country “is rugged and breaks down to the west” (the elevation at Santa Cruz thus agrees well enough with Jones’s estimate).'The matter might be settled by reference to some authoritative work on Mexican mines of the period, as Jones visited three mines there on June 4, and on June 6 he visited the Santo Domingo mine, and spent some time developing photographic “views.” He also names mines that he visited at La Palma. Of the trip (June 7th) from Santa Cruz to La Palma, Jones (in his diary) said, “Left for La Palma in a.m. Reached there late in eve. The worst road of all. Ascended 3000° and down 1500°. Found many plants on the way.” On June 8th Jones “visited the San Rafael mine [evidently from his base at La Palma] and stayed there all night.” The next day he “returned from the San Rafael and saw the Mexicana and stayed all night at La Palma. Botanized a good deal.” On the 10th “Left La Palma early with 2 pack animals and reached Tapalpa by noon... Reached Sayula at 9 0’c at 9 p.m." Additional bits of information may be gleaned from Jones' specimens and his notes on them. In describing Hymenocallis jaliscensis (Extr. from Contr. West. Bot. 18:33. 1933), he cited “Saucillo [‘Salcillo’], Jal., June 1, also at La Palma near by,” and one of his specimens (no. 47) is labelled as from “Santa Cruz near La Palma.” This marked the end of his travels to the vicinity of Chiquilistlan and Tapalpa. From Sayula he took off for Zapotlén el Grande and the borderlands of Jalisco and 2005 MCVAUGH: MARCUS E. JONES IN MEXICO, 1892 143 Colima, more or less southward along the line of the present railroad, and east of the massif of the Nevado de Colima and the associated highlands northward toward Tapalpa. Jones left Sayula for Zapotlan on June 11, a trip of about 25 km to the southeast that occupied about 3 hours. Lenz (1986, p. 307) quoted him as saying, “Returning to Sayula I took the stage for Sapotlan which was the terminus of coach travel... Here I outfitted with burros and mules for Colima.” On June 13th he set off at 10 a.m., southward toward Santa Cruz [not the Santa Cruz where he was from June 3rd to 10th]. “Went to Santa Cruz by night” (Jones diary). On the 14th, “Went to the ironworks and to Tamazula.” Formerly (McVaugh 1972, p. 349) I equated this Santa Cruz of Jones with the Sta. Cruz of Mariano Barcena (Ensayo Estadistico del Est. de Jalisco. Anal. Min. Fom. Rep. Méx. 9: 342, 349, 460. México, 1891), which was associated with the Rio Covianes (the upper reaches of the Rio Tuxpan). I have not located Santa Cruz on any map, but I now suspect that Jones went to Tamazula [de Gordiano] by turning east and northeast through Zapotiltic before reaching Tuxpan, and that the “ironworks” and Santa Cruz were both on the way, perhaps near Zapotiltic, and near the Rio Tuxpan (which Jones called Rio Cuvianes). Lenz (1986, p. 370), under Rio Cuvianes, quotes, “Rio Cuvianes, June 13, nos. 641—-653J.” A specimen of Chamaesyce hirta at US (no. 423) bears the inscription, “Rio Cuvianes near Santa Cruz.” On June 15th Jones “Spent half a day at Tamazula and went [back down the Rio Covianes or Tuxpan] to Tuzpan,” then on the 16th turned south for ca. 15 km to La Higuera [also called Rancho Higuerro or Rancho Guerro, or as by Lenz (1986, p. 369) Rancho Guerrero], where he visited the Muerto mine. The next day (17th) he left “in a.m.” and drove southeasterly for ca. 18 km to Pihuamo, where he arrived at 11:30 a.m. He must have visited the Purissima mine that afternoon, for on the 18th he “returned from the Purissima mine and looked at the placeres [placer mines] in p.m. Botanized, very hot. Poured down in p.m.” On the 19th (Sunday, on which day Jones never worked), he spent the day “doctoring the sick politico” who had a bullet wound in his hip. On the 20th he “left Pihuamo at 7 o’c and reached Tonila at 3 p.m. Good road” (it is northwest, 18-20 km, airline, so he must have averaged about 3 km per hour). He spent the next day, June 21, going some 12 km to San Marcos and returning to Tonila. “Botanized.” Thus in a week Jones worked his way down the valley of Rio Tuxpan a distance of 75 km or so, botanizing as he went while making professional visits to various working mines and potential mineral sites. On June 22 he turned away from the river valley, southwesterly some 30 km to the city of Colima, then the next day by train to the Pacific coast at Manzanillo, a 4-hour trip. “Took some photos and botanized a little.” For the next three days, June 24—26, Jones’s diary is uninformative. For each day there is an entry “Went over to Stadden’s ranch.” On two of the days it was “Stadden’s ranch and the sea.” On one day Jones wrote, “Got many facts.” I find no reference to the name Stadden in Lenz (1986), but in the same work (p. 352) there are two bare references to Jones’s visits to “the Stodden ranch” (or Stodden’s ranch) on the 24th and 25th. I have no further information about Stadden/Stodden. The city of Manzanillo is built on a wide place at the western end of the coastal sandbar, south of the famous bay of the same name. To “go over” to the sea and the ranch, Jones may have gone 3 to 5 km southward, across the closed end of the coastal lagoon. On June 27th and 28th, Jones made a quick trip inland by rail from Manzanillo to Armeria. He spent the 27th at the ranch of General Maltina [?Martinez], having gone 144 CONTR. UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN HERBARIUM VOLUME 24 up on a “special” [presumably laid on by the General] to the ranch of 81,000 acres. Jones was much impressed by the variety of crops produced at the ranch, but his diary says nothing about mines or mining. The next day he “returned to Manzanillo from Armeria, and then returned to Colima.” There he spent the next 8 days, begin- ning on June 29, doing (as he said) “very little,” developing photographic plates, and doing some “botanizing” (noted on June 30, July 1 and 2). He made local excursions to Jayamita to see a saltpeter mine (July 1), to an unspecified locality to see “a coal, mica and gypsum mine, only gypsum there” (July 2), to Rancho Magdalena to look at a marble mine” (July 4-5). According to Lenz (1986, p. 351), Rancho Magdalena was about 8 miles SW of the city of Colima. At about that distance from the city the 20th-century highway to Armeria and Manzanillo passes through an extensive area of rugged hills that support a rich flora of calciphiles and gypsophiles. It may be that Jones visited this area on July 1 and returned on July 2nd, 4th and Sth. It was at this time that he parted with his helper, “Dillon,” as described above. On July 7th, Jones left Colima in the morning and reached Tonila, Jal., at 2 p.m. At the time of his visit the state boundaries where Colima, Jalisco, and Michoacan come together were not fully agreed upon, and some of Jones’s specimens from San Marcos and Tonila were labelled as from Colima, and some from Pihuamo as from Michoacan. The next morning (July 8th) he left at 7:30 a.m. and came to Pihuamo at 5 p.m. On the 9th he “visited the Purissima mine & took samples,” and at 1 p.m. started back for Tonila, found the river too high to cross but managed to reach Tuxpan at night. On the 10th (Sunday) he “crossed the river early and reached Tonila at 9 a.m.” The “ferriage” was $0.56. He spent the night of July 10-11 in Tonila. On the 11th, according to his diary, “Tried to get outfit to start for the Volcano today but could not. Botanized. Rained hard yesterday and in the night.” The cost of his hotel room was $1.87. He must finally have obtained his “outfit,” for on the 12th he “Left Tonila at 4 0’c a.m. for the Vol- cano. Traveled till 12 o’c and then was about | mlile] from base of volcano but above it. 9250° alt + Deep barranca between. Guide & I went over to Volcano & back in 4 hours.” Presumably they camped upon their return. At the time of his visit, the voleano proper (the Volcan de Fuego) was erupting actively every two weeks (according to Jones; see Lenz, 1986, p. 92, who quotes a long paragraph from a newspaper interview that Jones gave about two weeks after his visit to the volcano). The altitudes that he mentioned appear to be on the low side. His figures were 12,000 feet (3,600 m) for the volcano proper (the Volcan de Fuego) and 13,000 feet (3,900 m) for the northern peak, the Volcén de Nieve. The accepted figures today are approximately 3,850 m and 4,340 m, respectively. On July 13. as recorded in Jones’s diary, they left after a very cold night at an elevation of perhaps 10,000 feet (estimated from his own figure of 9,250 ft). They broke camp at 7:30 a.m. and ascended to 10,500 feet [perhaps actually 11,000 or more], “at [the] pass on north side of Nevada de Colima and descended nearly to base of Mt. by 5 p.m. Rained for 2 hours. Everything wet on the ground. Camped under a madrona [sic] tree on the grass. Rain eased at 6 p.m. Not cold.” Jones did not go into more detail about their route from their first camp, but it was evidently along the eastern flank of the Nevado. The airline distance was hardly more than 15 km, but the many barrancas radiating down from the peak meant that they had to travel a much longer and more difficult road if Jones wanted to collect at elevations even as much as 3000 m. Jones and his guide left their highland camp at 7 a.m. on July 14, rode down to Zapotlan in 4 hours, paid off the extra mules he had hired in Colima, and set off at 2 p.m. “with old Juan and 4 animals for Guadalajara. Reached Sayula at 7 :30 p.m. “ 2005 MCVAUGH: MARCUS E. JONES IN MEXICO, 1892 145 After breakfast on the 15th, he “Left Sayula at 5 a.m. Rode all day to Sacoalco. Col- lected some. Warm in p.m. Reached Sacoalco at 4 p.m.” The diary for July 16 records nothing more than some expenses for Jones himself, ““& moso & boy overnight.” The same day, however, he must have continued on to Guadalajara, though his diary does not confirm this until July 18, when he “Left Guadalajara at 9 a.m. & went to Irapuato and Celaya.” By that time he was on his way home; on July 17th he had received a telegram telling him that “father is very sick.” INDEX TO LOCALITIES VISITED BY JONES IN 1892 FOR GEOLOGICAL AND BOTANICAL INVESTIGATION, WITH NOTES ON LOCALITIES AND COLLECTIONS Some of the following data are repeated from the account in the text (pages 23-33), where the emphasis is on itineraries, not on collections. Unless otherwise specified, notes on localities are based on information from Jones’s specimens, from Lenz (1986), or from manuscript material at RSA. Animas, Las, Zac.—Presumed to have been the Estancia de Animas, as on Carta Geog. Zacatecas 1/500,000 (1943) and other maps, at long. 102°, ca. 20 km WSW of EI Carro, Zac., and 20 km E by N of Pastoria; visited by Jones, 28 April. See Linora and Ojo Caliente. Armeria, Col.—12 collections seen, all dated 28 June. Typical plants of coastal low- lands, including Acrostichum. Called by Jones “General Martina’s ranch,” said to include 81,000 acres. Jones spent the day of 27 June there, then returned to Manzanillo and to Colima. Berriozabal (““Beriazillos”), Zac.—No specimens seen. Lenz (1986, p. 300) says, “On railroad 35 miles south of Zacatecas, at 6800 ft.” It is ca. 10-12 km SW of Ojo Caliente [which was not on the main railroad line but at the end of track on a parallel line from Zacatecas]. Jones was there on 9 May, “botanized all day” and reached Zacatecas by train at 6 p.m. Bota (El Bote), Zac.—A railroad station near Zacatecas, 14 May. Carro, El, Zac-——Also known for a time as Villa Glz. Ortega. Ca. 20 km N of [La] Noria de Angeles, 25 km SW of Salinas, S. L. P., and according to Jones, “8 miles E of Pastorilla.” See the text above for his travels on May 5 and 6 from Ramos to El Carro, to San Miguel and a nearby brackish lake, and his eventual return to Pastorilla. Casualidad, Zac.—9 collections seen, dated 26 or 28 April. Plants of arid shrubland (matorral). On the 26th Jones set out for Casualidad, about 30 km E of Zacatecas near the border between the States of Zacatecas and San Luis Potosi. A railroad line to Casualidad had been proposed but not built, so Jones travelled in a mule-drawn wagon. He arrived in the evening of April 26. He said “It was a region of rolling hills and no vegetation but yuccas and cactus and thorny Leguminosae.” He reported visiting the mines on the 27th, and in the afternoon “Visited the lead mines (3) of the Potosi Mts. Collected some plants.” 146 CONTR. UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN HERBARIUM VOLUME 24 Chiquilistlan, Jal—About 50 collections seen, dated 28 May to 2 June, except nos. 207 (Mimosa), 355 (Stemmadenia), and 470 (Karwinskia), dated respectively 13, 15, and 19 May, at which times Jones was in or near Zacatecas. Plants of oak forest, dry deciduous forest or matorral. During his stay at Chiquilistlan Jones visited the nearby Vasques (? Vazquez) mines (“3 or 4 of them”), slept at the Santa Maria on 30 May and returned to Chiquilistlan and visited the Vasques hacienda on the 31st. Left for Saucillo on 1 June, returned the next day and “went over to the Santoninia mines and also another iron mine on the other side of the river.” Left for Santa Cruz early on 3 June. Coahuayana, Rio, Col./Mich.—The river, in the valley that extends northward from the ocean (where it forms the boundary between Colima and Michoacan), is known successively as the Rio Coahuayana, Rio Tuxpan or (as Jones knew it above Tuxpan, Jal.), Rio Cuvianes. See Fig. 1. Colima, Col—About 40 collections seen, dated 30 June to 5 July. Jones worked in and near Colima from 29 June to 6 July, and passed through earlier on his way to Manzanillo and Armeria. Plants of relatively humid forests of coastal foothills, including various calciphiles. From a base in Colima Jones “bota- nized a little” on 30 June; on July | he went to see a saltpeter mine (and bota- nized) at Jayamita, q.v.; on the 2nd he went to see a “coal, mica, and gypsum mine, only gypsum there” (he botanized); on the 4th he went to see “marble at Rancho Magdalena” and on the 5th he returned to Colima. Corkhills mine, see Ojo Caliente. Covison (mine), S$. L. P—One collection, identified as Ferocactus latispinus by G. Lindsay (POM 83294), includes a long, typed description. On 29 April Jones was escorted to the “Covison mine” at or near La Paz, after which he returned to Ojo Caliente, Zac. Apparently Covison was never mentioned by Jones as a settlement, but only as this mine in the vicinity of La Paz. Cuvianes (Cavianes, Covianes, Cuvianus), Rio), Jal—About 25 collections seen, all dated 13 June. Jones travelled on 13 June from Zapotlan toward Tamazula, reaching Santa Cruz #2 at night, presumably having gone at least a part of the way up the river. Plants include many lowland ruderal weeds. See Coa- huayana, Rio. Escalon, Chih.—Jones changed trains here. He continued toward Sierra Mojada, Coah., by a branch railroad from Escalon in the southeastern corner of Chihuahua. He left Escalon at 6 a.m. on 18 April, and reached the mines at Sierra Mojada at 10 a.m. He found it very dry there. He walked two miles up to the upper town, “botanized all day” and part of the next, and returned to the junction at Escalon on the 20th, presumably having completed his survey of the mines on the 19th. Ferreria, (de Tula), Jal—About 25 collections seen, dated 28 May (one 27 May). Plants are those of moderately dry montane forests. It appears that on 27 May Jones passed through Tapalpa on the way to Ferreria, which he reached 2005 MCVAUGH: MARCUS E. JONES IN MEXICO, 1892 147 in the afternoon. He went to the nearby rancho of Ferreria [de Tula] [some 12-15 km northeast of Tapalpa] “in p.m. Saw the good iron works at Ferreria. Slept there. The manager was very kind.” The next day (28th) he found a guide to take him to Chiquilistlan. Guadalajara, Jal—Jones arrived by rail from Irapuato, Gto., 23 May at 4:45 p.m., and continued (presumably by rail) to Sayula on the 25th. There he stayed for two days, assembling what he needed for an overland pack trip beyond the railroad, “over the Tapalpa Mountains to Chiquilistlan.” Guerro (or Guerrero or Querro), Rancho, Jal. 15 June. See La Higuera. Higuera, La, Jal—Five collections seen, all dated 15 June. From Jones’s account it appears that he did not reach La Higuera until 16 June, arriving from Tux- pan. See Muerto (mine). The next day (17th) he drove to Pihuamo. Plants are typical shrubs of foothill deciduous forest. Irapuato, Gto.—Jones passed through this city both coming and going, from Zacatecas toward Guadalajara, Jal.,22 May, and northward toward home on 18 July. “Tron works” (or mines), not otherwise named, see Chiquilistlan, Ferreria, Santa Cruz #2, and Tamazula. Jayamita, Col—Four collections seen, all dated 1 July. A duplicate sheet of no. 83, “Euonymus” (Acalypha coryloides) 1 Jul POM 84508, is labelled “Jayamita, Jalisco.” Plants are shrubs from the relatively humid deciduous forests of the coastal foothills. Jayamita is not mapped in Fig. 1, as I have not been able to find it on any other map. Jones was in Colima City early in July He made local excursions, to Jayamita to see a saltpeter mine (1 July), to an unspeci- fied locality to see “a coal, mica and gypsum mine, only gypsum there” (2 July ), to Rancho Magdalena to look at a marble mine” (4-5 July). It seems likely that all these excursions were toward the rocky calcareous areas to the southwest of Colima. Linora, (Zac., according to Lenz, 1986, p. 349).—Also for a time called Villa Obregon, as on Carta Geog. Zacatecas 1/500,000, 1943; Jones, on 1 May, “Rode from Ojo Caliente 15 m. to Pastorilla [Pastoria] by noon where we found much lead... p.m. rode to Linora 15 m.” He visited at Linora and stayed over night, 2-3 May [he collected] no. 228, no. 568; on 3 May he rode [from Linora] to Ramos, S. L. P. [the settlement and the mine of the same name], 18 mi from Pastorilla. Jones’s “Linora” seems to have been [La] Noria de Angeles, ca. 30 km SW of Salinas, S. L. P., and 20 km S of El Carro, Zac. Magdalena, Rancho, Col.—On the 4th of July Jones went from Colima to see “some marble at Rancho Magdalena” and on the 5th he returned “from seeing marble mine,” apparently having been forced to stay over by a very hard rainstorm. Maltina (?Martinez), General, ranch, see Armeria. 148 CONTR. UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN HERBARIUM VOLUME 24 Manzanillo (“Manzanilla”), Col—About 25 collections seen, dated 25 June (one on 26 June). Note on 23 June, “Botanized a little.” Plants are those typical of the coastal hills, and maritime rocks, sands, and lagoons. On 24, 25, and 26 June the entries read “Went over to Stadden’s ranch and to the sea,” evidently from a base in Manzanillo across the dilated end of the coastal sandbar on which the city stands. Mexicana, mine, see Palma, La. Mexico City (México), D.R—Jones reached Mexico City by train on 19 May, en route from Zacatecas to Irapuato, Gto., and Guadalajara. Jal. Lenz (1986, p. 353) quotes him as saying that he collected plants “along the lakes below Mexico City,” but I find no record of any such plants. Jones left for Irapuato on 21 or 22 May. Milagros (‘“Milleagres,” “Milleagros”), Los, Zac_—Two collections of cacti seen, a few others probably collected, date of 4 May. Jones was making a side trip from Zacatecas City and Ojo Caliente to a series of ore prospects in arid eastern Zacatecas and adjacent San Luis Potosi. He recorded that he went (about 20 km SE) from Ojo Caliente to Pastoria (“Pastorilla”), presumably on the first of May. Milagros is about 12 km W of Pastoria, thus not on a direct line from Ojo Caliente, but his route may have taken him that way. On the 4th of May, Jones was traveling from Ramos, S. L. P., to Salinas, S. L P., so perhaps his plants from Milagros were collected before that. Mojada, Mojada Mts., see Sierra Mojada. Muerto, (mine), Jal., visited from La Higuera, q.v., on 16 June. Noria de Angeles, La, Zac.—Thought to have been the place called “Linora” by Jones. See under Ojo Caliente. Ojo Caliente, Zac—About 30 collections seen, mostly dated 9 May, most of the plants typical of arid shrubland. “Acacia constricta” (=?Mimosa), no. 587. is dated 30 April (POM 28438). According to Lenz (p. 347, under La Paz), on Apr 28th Jones was at the “Cork- hills mine” and “later all the folks went with us to Las Animas and left us. Then drove to Covison.” On the 29th (Jones diary), “Mr. Foreman took me over to La Paz and young Portus [?Portis] showed me through the Covison mine. p.m. drove to Ojo Caliente by 3 p.m.‘ He was in Ojo Caliente, Apr. 29, 30, [presumably on May 1, he], “Rode from Ojo Caliente 15 m. to Pastorilla by noon where we found much lead... p.m. rode to Linora 15 m.” May 2 [he collected] no. 228, no. 568; May 3, rode [from Linora, which see] to Ramos, S. L. P. [the settlement and the mine of the same name], 18 mi from Pastorilla; May 4 rode to Salinas, S. L. P. (SE of Ramos), collected nos. 572-574; he was in Ramos May 5, left Ramos at 7 a.m. on May 6, rode to El Carro, (Zac.), visited the San Miguel quicksilver deposits at San Miguel and at a “lake near San Miguel” collected at least nos. 157 and 585-592, May 6-7; on May 7 left for Pastorilla ca. “8 mi W of El Carro,” and on May 9 he was back in Ojo Caliente to collect nos. 151 and no. 158. It would be interesting to know how much time he spent in prospecting for minerals, aside from lead on May 1 and quicksilver on May 6. 2005 MCVAUGH: MARCUS E. JONES IN MEXICO, 1892 149 Palma, La, Jal—About 65 collections seen, all dated 7,8, or 9 June. Plants indicate a semi-humid tropical deciduous forest with many ferns, orchids, Piper, Ficus, Jarilla, Dorstenia, Pinguicula, and also some elements from more temperate floral zones, as Coriaria, Ranunculus, Valeriana, Polianthes. From La Palma Jones visited the San Rafael mine and stayed all night there. On 9 June he returned from the San Rafael, saw the Mexicana mine and stayed the night at La Palma. “Botanized a good deal.” On June 10th he went on to Tapalpa by noon. Pastoria (“Pastorilla”), Zac.—Seven collections seen, dated 2 May (No. 316, 7 May, Asclepias longicornu POM 75835). Jones was in Pastoria more than once between 1 May and 8 May, also visiting Linora, Ramos, Salinas, and San Miguel. See these in the text above and see also Ojo Caliente, Zac. Paz, La, S. L. P—Said by Lenz (1986, p. 347) to be SE of Zacatecas City. On 29 April (Jones diary), “Mr. Foreman took me over to La Paz and young Portus [?Por- tis] showed me through the Covison mine. p.m. drove to Ojo Caliente by 3 p.m.” This is assumed to have been the place called San Antonio de la Paz, shown on the Mapa de México at 1/250, 000 and on some modern highway maps, e.g., Est. Zacatecas 1/800,000 (Guia Roji, undated), where it is located just S of Hwy. 49, ca. 20 km S of Ramos, 12 km W of Salinas, and 25 km NE of [Las] Animas, Zac. See Ojo Caliente. Pihuamo, Jal. (“Michoacan” of some of Jones’s labels) —About 25 collections seen, four dated 20 June, the others 16 June. Jones is said to have arrived at Pihuamo from La Higuera on 17 June, 11:30 a.m. He must have visited the Purissima mine that afternoon, for on the 18th he “returned from the Puris- sima mine and looked at the placeres” [placer mines] in p.m. Botanized, very hot. Poured down in p.m.” On the 19th (Sunday, on which day Jones never worked), he spent the day “doctoring the sick politico” who had a bullet wound in his hip. On the 20th he “left Pihuamo at 7 o’c and reached Tonila at 3 p.m.” If his collections are correctly dated, it seems they must have been taken between La Higuera and Pihuamo on the 16th and between Pihuamo and Tonila on the 20th. On 8 July he returned to Pihuamo from Tonila, on the 9th he revisited the Purissima mine and “took samples.” Placeres (placer mines), see Pihuamo. Potosi Mts., Zac.—No specimens seen, though Jones reported in his diary for 27 April, “Visited the lead mines (3) of the Potosi Mts. Collected some plants).” See Casualidad, Zac. Cerro Potosi is the high point in an isolated range; it is about 50 km E of Zacatecas and 20 km NE of Ojo Caliente, nearly on the line between Zacatecas and San Luis Potosi. Purissima (mine), see Pihuamo. Ramos, S. L. P—Four specimens (and four duplicates) seen, dated 3-5 May. Jones took a side-trip of about two weeks, beginning from Ojo Caliente (ca. 40 km SE of Zacatecas), camping in the arid high plains farther to the east. He wrote that Ojo Caliente, Pastorilla, Linora, and Ramos are all in the same region of rolling hills with no vegetation but yuccas and cactus and thorny Leguminosae. See also Salinas. 150 CONTR. UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN HERBARIUM VOLUME 24 Rincon, Dona Ana Co., N. Mex.—Jones stopped here on April 15, en route to Mexico on the railroad, at least long enough to collect one specimen (Zoe 3: 291. Jan 1893). Sacoalco, see Zacoalco. Salcillo, see Saucillo. Salinas, S. L. P—Three specimens seen, all dated 4 May, one (no. 573, Opuntia sp., POM 83285) with additional note “Camp Silvio”). According to Lenz (1986, p. 374) nos. 572-574 were collected at Salinas. The locality (elev. ca. 2100 m) is ca. 30 km SE of Ramos, q.v., and 25 km NE of El Carro, Zac. Jones rode from Ramos to Salinas on 4 May and returned the same day or the next. San Marcos, Jal. (“Colima”).—About 20 collections seen, all dated 21 June. About two-thirds of them are ferns or fern-allies. Lenz (1986, p. 377) says that Jones spent the day of June 21st going from Tonila to San Marcos and returning, to which Jones’s diary added “Botanized.” San Marcos lies in the foothills, at ca. 1000 m elevation, near the beginning of the steeper ascent into the high volcanoes. In early July when Jones started northward along the flank of the volcanoes, he began from Tonila but climbed somewhat to the west of San Marcos. San Miguel, Zac.—Apparently very close to El Carro, q.v. Twelve collections seen (incl. 2 duplicates), dated 6 May except one dated 16 May. Seven are labelled “Lake” or “Borders of a lake” near San Miguel, one copied label reads “Lake Ness San Miguel” and one “near San Miguel. Margin of brackish lake.” Plants are those of dry highland grassslands, incl. one (Marsilea) typical of depressions in grassland. Jones left Ramos, S. L. P., at 7 a.m. on May 6, rode to El Carro, Zac., visited the San Miguel quicksilver deposits at San Miguel and at a “lake near San Miguel” collected at least nos. 157 and 585-592. San Rafael, mine, see Palma, La. Santa Cruz, Jal. (ca. 25 km a little S of W of Tapalpa)—About 45 collections seen, dated 3-7 June except for three collections dated 14 June, q.v. under Santa Cruz #2. Jones left Chiquilistlan on 3 June, reached Santa Cruz at 10 a.m. on the 4th. See also Santo Domingo (mine), visited 6 June. Plants collected at Santa Cruz are those of somewhat humid upland deciduous forest. On 7 June Jones (in his diary) said of his trip from Santa Cruz to La Palma, “Left for La Palma in a.m. Reached there late in eve. The worst road of all. Ascended 3000° and down 1500°. Found many plants on the way.” Santa Cruz No. 2, Jal.,on the Rio Tuxpan (“Cuvianes”) below Tamazula.—On June 13th Jones set off from Sayula at 10 a.m., southward toward Santa Cruz [not the Santa Cruz where he was from June 3rd to 10th]. “Went to Santa Cruz by night” [Jones diary]. On the 14th,Went to the ironworks and to Tamazula.” About six collections seen, dated 14 June; one labelled “Santa Cruz near Tapalpa” and one “Santa Cruz No. 2, near La Palma.” 2005 MCVAUGH: MARCUS E. JONES IN MEXICO, 1892 151 Santa Maria, mine, see Chiquilistlan. Santa Rosalia, [Zac.]—“Nama hispidum” (spathulatum); only the one specimen seen, the locality presumably near Zacatecas, Zac., where Jones was based during early May. No. 614, 15 May (POM 73490). Santo Domingo, mine, visited 6 June; see Santa Cruz. Santoninia, mine, see Chiquilistlan. Sapotlan, see Zapotlan. Saucillo, Jal. (“Salcillo” or “Salsillo”)—About 22 collections seen, dated 1 June (one dated 2 June). The plants are mostly those of the semi-arid upland tropical deciduous forest. The late Howard Gentry (an agave specialist) and I went to Chiquilistlan on 30-31 Jan 1975, in search of an agave that Jones had collected at “Salsillo.” We inquired in town (83 years after Jones’s visit) and were promptly given precise directions to El Saucillo, a long-unused mercury mine about 5 km south and some 2 km west of Chiquilistlan. The locality shown on the map (Fig. 1, no. 7) is another Saucillo, the one accepted by Lenz (1986, p. 374) and by McVaugh (1972, p. 350) as that visited by Jones. Sayula, Jal—Five specimens seen, dated 26 or 27 May, except one dated 10 June. Jones came from Guadalajara (presumably by rail) to Sayula on the 25th. He was in Sayula from 25—27 May, assembling an outfit for overland travel to Tapalpa and Chiquilistlan. He stopped briefly in Sayula again, on his way south, 10-11 June, left Sayula for Zapotlan on June 11, a trip of about 25 km to the southeast that occupied about 3 hours. Lenz (1986p. 307) quoted him as saying, “Returning to Sayula I took the stage for Sapotlan which was the terminus of coach travel. Here I outfitted with burros and mules for Colima." Sierra Mojada Mts., Coah. (often “Sierra Mojada” or “Mojada” only).—About 75 39 ce specimens seen, all dated 19 or 20 April except no. 348, “Giliastrum,” “flow- ers open at 9 o’c, a.m. and close at about 4 o’c. p.m. Sierra Mojyada, Mexico, April 18, 1892,” and no. 623, “Greggia” “Mojada, Mex. 21 April” (POM 95929). Apparently a rich spring flora in a brush-covered desert mountain range with some small trees. Jones seems to have spent most of his time botanizing, having arrrived on 18 April and left on the 20th. See Escal6n. Stadden’s ranch, Col., see Manzanillo. Tamazula (de Gordiano), Jal. —No plant collections seen. Jones reached Santa Cruz No. 2 “by night,” 13 June, from Zapotlan. He recorded later, “14 Tues. Went to the iron works and to Tamazula. 15 Wed. Spent half a day at Tamazula and went to Tuzpan." Tapalpa, Jal—About 25 collections seen, mostly dated either 27 May or 10 June. Jones hired a muleteer and four mules and set out from Sayula for Tapalpa at 6 a.m. on 27 May. Sayula lies at the level of a series of shallow and seasonally dry SZ CONTR. UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN HERBARIUM VOLUME 24 lake-beds, and the improved road to the forested mountains around Tapalpa is still very steep and tortuous a century later. Evidently Jones reached Tapalpa by midday. Specimens dated 27 May are presumably from those mountains. The supposed date of No. 133, “Ximenia parviflora, was 31 May, perhaps an error for 27 May, as the specimen at MSC is labelled “Tapalpa Mts. 8000 ft among pines.” Jones went “in p.m.” of the 27th to the nearby rancho of Ferreria [de Tula] [some 12-15 km northeast of Tapalpa] “Saw the good iron works at Ferreria. Slept there.” On 10 June Jones left La Palma, reached Tapalpa by noon and Sayula at 9 p.m. On 11 June he left Sayula for Zapotlan. That route does not ascend into the “Tapalpa Mts.” so perhaps the date of 11 June on no. 308 (“Arctostaphylos”) is erroneous. Tonila, Jal. (“Colima”)—About 15 collections seen, dated 8 July except no. 281 (1 July) and a specimen unnumbered (11 July, POM 29489). On the 11th the diary says, “Botanized.” Ten of the collections were ferns of the humid foot- hill woodlands. On 1 July Jones was in or near Colima; he spent the nights of 7-8 July and 10-11 July in Tonila. Tuxpan (“Tuzpan”), Jal—About 12 collections seen, all dated 15 June. Plants of the humid woodlands of the foothills. On June 15th Jones “Spent half a day at Tamazula and went [back down the Rio Covianes or Tuxpan] to Tuxpan,” then on the 16th turned south for ca. 15 km to “Rancho Higuerro” [La Higuera], where he visited the Muerto mine. On 12 July, making for the eastern slopes of the active volcano from Tonila, he must have climbed more nearly north, thus to the west of Tuxpan. Vasques (? Vazquez) mines, and Hacienda. See Chiquilistlan. Volcano of Colima, Jal. (“Volcan, Mex.”; “Volcan”).—About 85 collections seen, all dated either 13 July or 14 July. This was the most interesting botanizing that Jones did during this summer. He was the first to make a significant collec- tion there (C. G. Pringle, the renowned collector of Mexican plants, spent several days on the volcanoes in May, 1893). Jones spent the night of July 10-11 in Tonila. On the 11th, according to his diary, “Tried to get outfit to start for the Volcano today but could not. Botanized. Rained hard yesterday and in the night.” On the 12th he “Left Tonila at 4 0’c a.m. for the Volcano. Traveled till 12 o’c and then was about | m[ile] from base of volcano but above it. 9250° alt + Deep barranca between. Guide & I went over to Vol- cano & back in 4 hours” (and camped upon their return). Jones seems never to have distinguished between the active volcano (the “Volcan de Fuego”) and the much higher peak to the north (the “Volcan de Nieve”’), from the side of which the other seems to arise. On July 13 the diary records, they left after a very cold night at an elevation of perhaps 10,000 feet [an editorial estimate based on Jones’s own figure of 9,250]. They broke camp at 7:30 a.m. and ascended to 10, 500 feet [per- haps actually 11,000 or more)] “at [the] pass on north side of Nevada [sic] de Colima and descended nearly to base of Mt. [toward Zapotlan] by 5 p.m. Rained for 2 hours. Everything wet on the ground. Camped under a madrona [sic] tree on the grass. Rain eased at 6 p.m. Not cold.” Jones did not go into more detail about their route from their first camp, but it was evi- dently along the eastern flank of the Nevado, an airline distance hardly more 2005 MCVAUGH: MARCUS E. JONES IN MEXICO, 1892 153 than 15 km, the traveling difficult because of the many barrancas radiating down from the peak. Clearly Jones did not seek an easy way. His notations on specimens include such comments as “middle elevations,” “alpine,” or “10,000 ft.,” and there are many plants from the high bunchgrass asssociation with alders, and the sparsely populated slopes above and near timberline. Zacatecas, Zac. —About 13 collections seen, 5 dated 23 April (soon after Jones’s arrival from the north by railroad), one dated 4 May, two dated 16 May, and 8 dated 23 June. On the latter date Jones was on his way from Colima to Manzanillo; the plants so dated are in general those of the dry interior uplands (e.g., Adolphia infesta, Reseda luteola) and perhaps mistakenly dated 23 June instead of 23 April. Jones worked out of Zacatecas for about a month after 23 April, with a short trip to Casualidad and Cerro Potosi, and a longer excursion to Ramos, S. L. P., q.v. and El Carro, Zac., q.v. Zacoalco (de Torres) (“Sacoalco”), Jal—Three specimens seen, dated 16 July. Lenz 86, p. 307) quoted the diary as of “15 June,” “Left Sayula at 5 a.m. Rode all day to Sacoalco. Collected some... Reached Sacoalco at 4 p.m. “ Zapotlan el Rey (“Sapotlan”), Jal—No specimens seen among those recovered. Jones stopped here over the weekend of 11-13 June, “bargained for an outfit for Colima. Wrote about 12 letters.” He continued to Santa Cruz, q.v., on the 13th. He returned a month later, after collecting on the volcanoes, and spent three hours in Zapotlan on 14 July before leaving for Sayula and Guadalajara. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The primary framework, from which is it possible to derive so many details of the life and work of Marcus Jones, is the exemplary biography by Lee W. Lenz (Lenz 1986). My well-thumbed copy of this volume, a gift from the author, has been indispensable in the preparation of the present paper, and I thank him for permission to quote from it. The late Lyman Benson helped me many years ago to select perti- nent data from Jones’s diary and to secure permission to publish them (McVaugh 1972). George Russell of the United States National Herbarium furnished a list of the specimens from the 1892 collection that had been accessioned at US. To Susan Whitfield I am grateful for her precise and elegant additions to my base map. In recent years I have received answers to questions on taxonomy, nomenclature, and Mexican geography, from many friends, especially from James Henrickson and William R. Anderson, and many favors in editorial matters from Christiane Anderson. A tip of the hat to Tom Daniel for information on little-known localities in Zacatecas and San Luis Potosi. My notes on Marcus Jones could not have been published without the aid of Steve Boyd and the brilliantly executed searches conducted in the Pomona herbarium by Lisa M. Rojas.

Steinmann Instituto de Ecologia, A.C. Centro Regional del Bajio, A.P. 386 61600 Patzcuaro, Michoacan, Mexico Recent estimates of the number of species of Euphorbiaceae in Mexico vary from 782 (Steinmann 2002) to 826 (Martinez et al. 2002), and the state of Michoacan possesses a rich diversity of these. Rodriguez and Espinosa (1996) reported the presence of 127 species and 19 genera for the state, whereas Martinez et al. (2002) reported 164 species and 20 genera. I estimate that the actual number of taxa is closer to the latter value and even slightly higher with about 185 species and 21 genera pres- ent. Here six new species are described from Michoacan.

ADDITIONAL SPECIMEN EXAMINED. Mexico. MIcHOACAN: Mpio. Angamacutiro, vertiente S del Cerro Tres Reyes, cerca de Angamacutiro, Rzedowski 52696 (IEB). The epithet atrostellatus refers to the black stellate trichomes that are scattered throughout the plant. I am unaware of this feature in any other Mexican species of Croton, and its occurrence serves to separate this taxon from all others in western Mexico. Some areas of the plant actually appear to the naked eye to be infested by a rust, but it is in fact a proliferation of these black trichomes that causes this illu- sion. According to the infrageneric circumscription of Webster (1993), the presence of valvate-reduplicate pistillate sepals, eglandular stipules and sepals, and a stellate pubescence warrants the placement of Croton atrostellatus in section Lasiogyne (Klotzsch) Baill. No other members of this section are known from western tropical Mexico (Webster 2001), and the only representative given for Mexico by Webster in his 1993 conspectus is C. tabascensis Lundell. Apart from lacking the characteristic black trichomes, C. tabascensis differs in having hispid young stems, leaves that are not bicolored and only moderately stellate-pubescent beneath, and sepals that are uniformly pubescent on the inner surface. Also, although supposedly not charac- teristic of the section Lasiogyne, in C. tabascensis the sepals of the pistillate flowers possess small, sessile glands. Croton atrostellatus is known from only two collections in the subtropical scrub of the Bajio region in northwestern Michoacan at elevations from 1800 to 1900 m. At the type locality it grows sympatrically with C. adspersus Benth. and C. sphaerocarpus H. B. K. It was collected with flowers in June and with fruits in October. Euphorbia calderoniae V. W.

Uruapan, 5 km al S de Angahuan, en el Llano Choritiro, Soto Niifiez 13882 (MEXU). The specific epithet calderoniae pays tribute to Graciela Calder6n de Rzedowski, a researcher at the Instituto de Ecologia-Centro Regional del Bajio and specialist of Mexican plants. She is coeditor of the Flora del Bajio y de Regiones Adyacentes, and all but one of the known collections of Euphorbia calderoniae occur within the boundaries of this Flora. Euphorbia calderoniae is a member of subg. Chamaesyce, and like so many other species of the subgenus, the seeds serve to distinguish it. In habit it resembles a prostrate and diminutive form of Euphorbia nutans Lag. and apparently is related to this species; however, from this and close allies it is separated by the possession of seeds with plane and smooth dorsal faces. In related species the dorsal faces are convex and variously sculptured. In addition, the ventral two faces of E. calderoniae form a single flat surface, whereas in related species the ventral two faces usually form a convex surface. The leaves of E. calderoniae are reminiscent of those of E. serpyllifolia Pers. in both shape and in being mostly entire along the proximal margin and only serrulate towards the apex; in addition to seed characters, the pubescent stems readily serve to distinguish E. calderoniae from this species. The four known localities of E. calderoniae are in the trans-volcanic region of northern Michoacan, where it is found in grasslands, humid canyons in pine-oak forest, and scrub vegetation at elevations from 2300 to 2500 m. Flowering and fruiting overlap broadly, and fertile material has been collected in August and December. 2005 STEINMANN: EUPHORBIACEAE Lar Euphorbia infernidialis V. W.

The presence of ovaries with hairs restricted to the base and along the keels suggests a relationship with E. leuwcantha (Klotzsch & Garcke) Boiss. and FE. mendezii Boiss., and both of these species occur in the vicinity. Yet, these species possess strongly dor- siventrally flattened stems with long spreading hairs along the margin, larger stipules, and cyathia in dense and congested lateral shoots of the primary stems. In contrast, E. infernidialis has terete stems without long spreading hairs, highly reduced stipules, 2005 STEINMANN: EUPHORBIACEAE 179 and cyathia borne solitary at the distal nodes of the primary stems. Oddly enough, the type collection was made from plants growing in the disturbed roadside directly adjacent to the highway and the only other known collection was made along the side of a dirt road. The adjacent vegetation in both of these areas is arid thorn forest. The only two collections were encountered in full flower during the height of the dry season (March to May), a time during which most members of subg. Chamaesyce are dormant. It has also been observed to flower during the summer rainy season. Euphorbia lottiae V. W. Steinmann, sp. nov.—Type: Mexico. Michoacan: Mpio.

This species is dedicated to Emily J. Lott, Euphorbiaceae enthusiast and a leading authority on the plants of the tropical deciduous forest of western Mexico. She collected the species at the type locality in 1983. Euphorbia lottiae belongs to subg. Agaloma and is a member of the E. ocymoidea L. complex. McVaugh (1993) provided a general overview of this group, recognizing three varieties of Euphorbia ocymoidea: var. barnesii (Millsp.) McVaugh, var. ocymoidea, and var. subreniformis (S. Watson) McVaugh. I agree with McVaugh concerning the taxa recognized as well 2005 STEINMANN: EUPHORBIACEAE 181 as the characters used to distinguish them; however, I differ with him in the belief that they are best treated as distinct species as opposed to infraspecific taxa. These, together with Euphorbia lottiae, probably form a monophyletic group and are indeed very similar, so their rank is somewhat arbitrary. I prefer to recognize them as species for various reasons. All are morphologically distinct from each other by more than a single character. There are ecological differences as well, with E. /ottiae and E. ocy- moidea growing at low elevations in tropical vegetation, E. subreniformis S. Watson occurring at higher elevations in mostly pine-oak forest, and E. barnesii (Millsp.) Oudejans occurring in both such habitats. Furthermore, their ranges are independent, and they maintain their distinctiveness even when growing in the same general area. In McVaugh’s 1993 key, Euphorbia lottiae would come out to E. barnesii, and some specimens were initially identified as such. Although these two share consistently 5-glanded involucres, glabrous ovaries and capsules, slender to capillary gynophores, and eglandular branchlets, they differ in a number of features. The following couplet serves to distinguish them. 1. Young stems drying terete; long spreading hairs restricted to the outer surface of the involucre; base of the leaf blade attached to the adaxial side of the petiole and not continuous over it; peduncles 0.5—1 (-1.5) mm long, glabrous; styles 0.3-0.4 mm long. E. barnesii . Young stems, upon drying, usually caniculate with several sharp, whitish to translucent longitu- dinal ridges; long spreading hairs sometimes present on the stems and leaves in addition to the involucres; base of the leaf blade continuous over the adaxial side of the petiole and thus appear- a minutely subpeltate; peduncles 2-9 mm long, villous at least towards the base; styles 0.5—-0.7 m long. — E. lottiae Euphorbia lottiae also appears to differ from the other species of the complex by its habit. It is almost turgescent and rather hydrophytic in character, whereas its close relatives possess more wiry and fibrous stems. As far as I can tell, the branches of the others are mostly erect to ascending. In contrast, the branches of E. /ottiae are weak, primarily prostrate to decumbent, and prolifically sprawling. This species is known from a small number of collections gathered at four localities in the valley of the Rio Tepalcatepec in southern Michoacan and adjacent Jalisco, where it occurs in thorn forest and tropical deciduous forest at elevations ranging from 300 to 500 m. It likely also grows in Guerrero; the type locality is only about 3 kilometers from the border and with vegetation similar to that of vast expanses in adjacent Guerrero. It thrives during the brief rainy season, but is one of the first plants to wilt and die as the rains diminish and the soil dries. All known collections were made from early September to late October. Jatropha | Clee W. Steinmann, sp. nov.—T yee: Mexico.

This species is named for Jaime Jiménez Ramirez of the Facultad de Ciencias of the Universidad Nacional Autonoma de México. His many contributions on Euphor- biaceae and in particular Jatropha, including the descriptions of various new species, have greatly enhanced our understanding of the family in Mexico. The affinities of Jatropha jaimejimenezii are not obvious, and even its subgeneric placement is prob- lematic. Following the classification of Jatropha proposed by Dehgan and Webster (1979), it belongs to subg. Jatropha. This is due to its monoecious sexuality, glandu- lar-dissected stipules, and oblong seeds with a well-developed caruncle; however, I cannot further accommodate it within any of the sections. The most unusual feature of this species is the presence of only 5 monadelphous stamens with the second whorl of stamens completely absent. As far as I know this morphology is unique within the genus, and according to Dehgan and Webster (1979) all other species have 8 or 10 stamens, except for J. podagrica Hook. in which the stamens vary from 6 to 14. The two known stations of J. jaimejimenezii are within 20 km of each other in the Infier- nillo region of southern Michoacan. The species occurs from 300 to 400 m elevation on rocky hillsides in relatively open thorn forest dominated by species of Bursera, Croton, Krameria, Pseudosmodingium, Rahcoma, and Randia, together with several columnar cacti and numerous leguminous shrubs and small trees. Flowering and fruit- ing overlap and occur during the rainy season from June to September. Manihot mevaughii V. W. Steinmann, sp. nov.—T ype: Mexico. Michoacan: Mpio.

Its initial discovery is in fact due to him, as it was first encountered while in search of Euphorbia arteagae Buck & Huft around its type locality, a site visited by McVaugh in 1965. Manihot mcvaughii is noteworthy for its relatively small leaves and flowers, which are solitary or paired. In almost all other species of Manihot the flowers are arranged in well-differentiated racemes or panicles and the leaves are considerably larger. The only other species to possess such traits is M. pauciflora Brandegee of the Tehuacan-Cuicatlan valley of Puebla and Oaxaca. Rogers and Appan (1973) assigned M. pauciflora to a monotypic segregate genus, Manthotoides Rogers & Appan, but it appears to represent an arid-adapted species of Manihot, and most subsequent authors have treated the two names as synonyms (e.g., Webster 1994; Martinez et al. 2002). Manihot mcvaughii occurs in the most xeric region of the Balsas Depression; whether it is closely related to M. pauci- flora or shares with it characteristics because of similar selective pressures remains to be determined. Interestingly, the only known localities of M. mcvaughii are the same three at which Jatropha jaimejimenezii occurs, and at all of these sites the two species grow side-by-side. The two species also share a similar period of reproduction, with flowering and fruiting during the rainy season from June to September.

GAZETTEER OF SOME POSSIBLY PUZZLING COLLECTING LOCALITIES FOR MICHIGAN PLANTS Edward G. Voss University of Michigan Herbarium 3600 Varsity Drive Ann Arbor, Michigan 48108-2287 ABSTRA Listed alphabetically with county assignments are over 500 Michigan localities from which herbarium specimens have been seen but for which the labels lack county designations. Sites included usually (1) are not readily located in standard indexes to Michigan place names, (2) can be confused with other localities bearing the same names, anon (3) have undergone a change in name. Documentation often cites published references, spec ctors, or dates. INTRODUCTION This listing presents some ambiguous, controversial, or obscure Michigan locali- ties, mostly from which actual herbarium specimens have been seen. It is intended largely to supplement (or in a few cases correct) entries in Romig’s 1972 Michigan Place Names and the indexes prepared ca. 1917-1918 by Rand-McNally & Company for their indexed pocket map of Michigan and their much larger Commercial Atlas of America. (These two indexes are essentially identical.) My purpose is primarily to help users assign specimens to the correct county, since the county is widely used as the basic unit for filing records and mapping distributions. Often, however, more detailed information can be provided to enable a narrower designation of sites. Sometimes the same person collected at more than one site bearing identical names. Sometimes different collectors gathered specimens at sites with the same names. When I have been able to clarify such situations, clues appear here, in hopes that persons mapping distributions may avoid jumping to erroneous conclusions. For 50 years I have been gathering this information, as the necessity was pre- sented periodically to determine the localities (especially counties) where herbarium specimens— mostly older ones—with very scant data had been gathered. Others have often asked for help with fragmentary localities in (or thought to be in) Michi- gan, and it would appear useful to make this eclectic catalog more widely available despite the varying and inconsistent level of detail (and of citation) as items accumu- lated over the years without any intention of eventual publication. If your favorite obscure site is not included here, that may not be an oversight. Remember that this list consists primarily of places (1) where plant collectors actu- ally gathered specimens but generally failed to indicate the county; and/or (2) names that are repeated and often better known elsewhere in the state (sometimes even in the same county). Changes of place names and difficulty of locating sites on county maps are other criteria for listing. COLLECTORS CITED Sometimes a collector’s occasional label has an indication of county when other labels do not. Sometimes a particular collector (with year or date) needs to be cited to clarify a locality or the collector(s) who visited it. Initials as listed below indicate 189 190 CONTR. UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN HERBARIUM VOLUME 24 the more frequently cited of these persons (as well as authors). More information about those who flourished in the 19th century—and where their collections may be found —is in Voss (1978). Other indications rarely given in capitals after citation of specimens or other data are the internationally recognized symbols for herbaria where specimens are found (more often given here for out-of-state institutions), e.g.. MO = Missouri Botanical Garden; GH = Gray Herbarium of Harvard University; BLH = Cranbrook Institute of Science; MSC = Michigan State University. Names of species and dates of collecting at a site are intended only as examples and are not necessarily exhaustive. The field notes, rough and crude though they are, of Oliver A. Farwell have sometimes been very helpful (they are now housed in the University of Michigan Herbarium). CWB = Clayton W. Bazuin (1893-1968) CRH = Clarence R. Hanes (1874-1956) WJB = William J. Beal (1833-1924) FJH = Frederick J. Hermann (1906-1987) EAB = Ernst A. Bessey (1877-1957) EJH = Ellsworth J. Hill (1833-1917) CB = Cecil Billington (1876-1950) CFW = Charles F. Wheeler (1842-1910) EJC = Emma J. Cole (1845-1910) DC = Dennis Cooley (1787-1860) UMBS = University of Michigan Biological HTD = Henry T.

McVaugh 1970) OTHER SOURCES Published and unpublished sources for information about a site (its location and/ or history) are very incomplete in this list, but some are indicated as follows when they may be helpful in interpreting sites. Citing of illustrative specimen labels is espe- cially frequent for monocots, the first group to be written up for Michigan Flora, as | usually did not bother to record additional supporting citations. Years of collections are generally preceded by “in”; years of publication or other sources of information are not. For obscure localities not included here, one should try consulting appropri- ate published works, such as those listed below and/or papers and published reports by the collector in question, for example, Cole (1901), Walpole (1924), Hanes (1947). The Haneses’ 1947 Flora of Kalamazoo County, Michigan often includes clues in text or introduction concerning their collecting sites, so only a few troublesome ones are included here. Sometimes collectors provide a clue in their numbers, such as prefix- ing them with codes; e.g., for collections from counties other than Kalamazoo, Mr. Hanes often preceded a collection-number with an indication of the county, such as V.B. for Van Buren Co. or S.J. for St. Joseph Co. [An assistant recording data for me many years ago, upon seeing a label reading “C. R. Hanes S.J. 171” declared “I didn’t know that Mr. Hanes was a Jesuit!” There is no end to the confusion that unusual or cryptic label styles can induce. ] Beacon, The. 1986—-.

(Facsimile reprints of 1859 and 1875 Macomb Co, plats, with detailed indexes, were published in 1983 under the sponsorship of the St. Clair Shores Historical Commission. ) ADVICE Many place names (not only of lakes) are duplicated within the state and one should never assume that all collections by all collectors from a place bearing a name listed below are necessarily from the same site. It should also be noted that many 19th century collectors used the name of an organized township without specifying “township” and did not necessarily mean a community of the same name within that township or elsewhere, e.g., Washington or Shelby [townships] in Macomb County and Paris [township] in Kent County. Sometimes a collector’s name can be confused with a locality. Douglass Houghton, Michigan’s first State Geologist (appointed in 1837), traveled over much more of Michigan than most of his contemporaries and furthermore was a good botanist (a former student of Amos Eaton). A collection sent out by him on exchange or for identification might have been labeled by the recipient merely (without date) “Houghton” and could now be misinterpreted as having come from the city or county of Houghton, later named for him. Another caution that cannot be repeated too often is to distinguish between a collecting locality and the collector’s address. C. K. Dodge almost invariably accom- panied his name with “Port Huron, Michigan,” which is where he lived, not neces- sarily where the specimen came from. In fact, a collection from “near Port Huron” might have come from the other side of the river, in Canada, where he also collected 2005 VOSS: MICHIGAN GAZETTEER 193 extensively. Such “near” localities may often mislead, for “near” is a vague term and another county or even country could be involved. Furthermore, some 19th century collectors had their home town (e.g., “Ann Arbor”) printed at the bottom of their blank labels no matter where the specimens were obtained. Many erroneous citations in the literature result from such deplorable labels. GAZETTEER, WITH REMARKS (County name in capitals and brackets) A Adams tamarack [MACOMB]: Shelby [Tp.] (cf. DC labels for Malaxis monophylla, Carex brunnescens, C. canescens, C. trisperma). Adams, G., tamarack swamp [MACOMB]: Shelby [Tp.] (cf. DC 1842 label for Carex disperma). Adams, Geo., meadow [MACOMB]: Shelby [Tp.] (cf. DC 1845-1846 labels for Carex alopecoidea and Poa palustris). Adams, John [MACOMB]: ca. | mi N of Disco, Shelby Tp. Agricultural College [INGHAM]: often abbreviated “Agrl. Coll.” and in other ways, including “M. A. C.” It was founded in 1855, became Michigan State College in 1925, and Michigan State University in 1955; the name of the community offi- cially became East Lansing in 1907. Consider also College Woods, College Farm, etc.: and see also entries for Chandler’s Marsh, Michigan State Col., and Towar’s Swamp below. Alger’s Camp [ALCONA]: a “short distance west from Mud Lake” (q.v.) [= Barton City] (CFW et al. in 1888; cf. Voss & Crow 1976, p. 30) Allen’s Pinery [KENT]: = East St. Pinery in Grand Rapids (cf. EJC label for Monotropa hypopithys). Alverno [CHEBOYGAN];: located on the Black River, not the Cheboygan R. as stated by Romig. Anderson’s Pond [KEWEENAW]: (OAF 1943). Andrews Lake [presumably OAKLAND]: OAF collected on the same dates in Waterford Tp., Pontiac, and Bloomfield, all in Oakland Co.— but this lake is not on any map I have located; he cited the lake without county in Am. Midl. Nat. 9: 261. 1925. Andrews [MACOMB]: H. Andrews property in Shelby [Tp., sec. 4] (cf. DC label for Aster lanceolatus). Arethusa Bog [HOUGHTON]: 0.5 mile N of Laurium (cf. FJH label for Carex flava). [Note that S. H. Camp collected 1891-1893 at an Arethusa Swamp “near Clark’s Lake” in Jackson Co.] Armbruster’s Woods [WASHTENAW]: Lodi Tp. (T3S, R5E), variously cited on labels as sec. 13 or NE% sec. 14. Ashery brook [MACOMB]: Washington [Tp.] (cf. DC label for Agrostis gigantea). 194 CONTR. UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN HERBARIUM VOLUME 24 Axford, J. S. [MACOMB]: Washington [Tp.] (cf. DC label for Lithospermum caroli- niense). Axford farm [OAKLAND]: Long John Axford farm, Oakland [Tp.] (cf. DC label for Carex lasiocarpa). B Bailey Lake [KENT]: “4 miles east of Grand Rapids” (cf. CWB 1940 label for Lysi- machia terrestris, his locality is in accord with the map in Cole 1901 although this lake is unnamed on the 1914 topo map for Grand Rapid quad.: NW% sec. 25, Grand Rapids Tp.; however, that lake is now shown as East Lake on maps.) [Other maps (both recent and 1918 topo for Lowell quad.) show Bailey Lake in sec. 19 of Vergennes Tp., mapped by EJC (1901) as Long Lake. Since Miss Cole had attended high school in Vergennes and later taught there for four years, the discrepancy is especially odd; Bailey School was across the road from the lake, which suggests some authenticity to the name in that tp.] Lake Bailey [KEWEENAW]: ca. 2 miles E of Eagle Harbor (OAF 1943; probably a better known lake than any of the other half-dozen Bailey lakes in the state). [The 400-acre Lake Bailey Sanctuary of the Michigan Audubon Society is now in this area. Baldwin’s [OAKLAND]: Oakland [Tp.] (cf. DC label for Carex pseudocyperus). Bangham Rd. Woods [JACKSON]: sec. 3, T2S, R3W (E. A. Stowell in 1956-1960 et a. AIBC) ): Bardings [|MONTMORENCY ]: SW corner see. 8, T30N, RIE (Case in 1956 etc.). Barley Motors [KALAMAZOO]: sec. 4/5, Schoolcraft Tp. (CRH, cf. his labels for Melampyrum lineare and Lysimachia lanceolata).

Beaver Island: Besides the well-known island in Lake Michigan [Charlevoix Co.], note that this is also the old name for Manitou Island in Lake Superior off the tip of the Keweenaw Peninsula [Keweenaw Co.] (cf. Lt. James Allen’s journal for June 15, 1832 [Mason 1958, p. 175]). There are yet other Beaver Islands in Minnesota: in Lake Superior (Lake Co., a flora by Lakela in Bull. Torrey Bot. Club 75: 265-271. 1948) and in the Mississippi River at St. Cloud (cf. Minnesota Conservation Volunteer Sept.—Oct. 1976, p. 16). Belle Isle IKEWEENAW}: this tiny island (with National Park campground) on the northwest side of Isle Royale was so-named in 1915 (Parratt & Welker), and for- merly had a resort and post office. [It should not be confused with the much bet- ter-known and thoroughly developed Belle Isle (named in 1845) in the Detroit River (Wayne Co.); cf. Mich.

Birchwood [BERRIEN]: just SW of Warren Dunes (CKD collected here in 1917). Black Pool (Meadow) [KEWEENAW]: (OAF 1943). Black River [GOGEBIC]: this is the Black River of Henry Gillman in 1868, flow- ing into Lake Superior west of the Presque Isle River and Porcupine Mts. State Park (cf. Peters in Mich. Academician 18: 426. 1986). [There are several other Black Rivers in Michigan, e.g., in Alcona, Allegan, Muskegon (C. D. McLouth coll.), Ottawa (see below), St. Clair (C. K. Dodge coll.), Sanilac, and Van Buren counties. The Black River in Cheboygan Co. flows from Black Lake into the Cheboygan River near its mouth, but the name is also carelessly applied to the Upper Black River, which arises in Otsego Co. and flows through small portions of Montmorency and Presque Isle counties before finally entering Black Lake in Cheboygan Co. | Black River [OTTAWA|]: The river and the Black Lake into which it flows were changed to Macatawa River and Macatawa Lake in 1974 and 1935, respectively. Blanchard Lake (or “Bog”) [CHEBOYGAN]: = Mud Lake of maps in secs. 21 and 28, T38N, R3W (UMBS). Blockhouse [OSCODA|]: on Blockhouse Creek, NE sec. 12, T26N, R4E (CFW et al. in 1888; cf.

Bodies Creek Meadow [KEWEENAW]: the creek flows into Eagle River at Phoenix (OAF 1943). Bohemia, Mt. [KEWEENAW|: sec. 29, T58N, R29W. Bois Blanc Island [MACKINAC]: CB collected here in 1914 and 1916 (cf. labels for Taxus canadensis, Salix cordata, etc.) as did others in other years, including S. H. Camp in the 1890s. CB also collected in 1914 at the island of the same name [also often corrupted to “BobLo”—to which it was officially changed in 1949] in the Detroit River, on the Canadian side of the International border and hence in Essex Co., Ontario (cf. his label for Physalis longifolia and also Farmer, pp. 7-8). Bootjack [HOUGHTON |: sec. 20, TSS5N, R32W. Botanical Gardens [WASHTENAW]: The University of Michigan Botanical Gar- dens have been located at three quite different sites (other than plots as early as 1897 on the central campus and rented greenhouse space in town). Originally (1907-1916) they were (in both geography and administration) associated with the Nichols Arboretum on Geddes Ave. in the NE part of Ann Arbor. From 1916 196 CONTR. UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN HERBARIUM VOLUME 24 until 1960-1961 they were located south of Stadium Blvd. between Packard Rd. and South Industrial Highway, with the entrance on Iroquois St. Since comple- tion of the move in 1961, the unit (now named the Matthaei Botanical Gardens) has been located on Dixboro Rd. in the NE part of Ann Arbor Tp. and W part of Superior Tp., south of Plymouth Rd.

Brown’s West Woods [KALAMAZOO]: E. L. Brown’s, sec. 22, Prairie Ronde Tp. (CRH; E. L. Brown located in Schoolcraft, Hanes 1947, p. 224 under Datura). Brown’s [MACOMB]: Saul Brown’s, Shelby [Tp., sec. 3] (cf. DC label for Aster lan- ceolatus). Brownstown [WAYNE]: = Tp. (OAF in 1930). Bryant’s Bog [CHEBOYGAN|]: very near Douglas Lake in sec. 29, T37N, R3W UMBS). Budrow’s Marsh [KALAMAZOO]: sec. 4, Schoolcraft Tp. (CRH, cf. his 1934 label for Quercus coccinea; his Flora locates Budrow’s farm (p. 253) as “east of Sugar- loaf Lake”— which could conceivably be near the oak site).

Canfield’s Farm [MANISTEE]: now within the southwestern city limits of Manistee; type locality for Potamogeton hillii (cf. Morong label, 14 Aug. 1882, NY, “pool on Canfield’s farm, near Manistee”). [The property was acquired by the Manistee Country Club in the late 1880s and the two pools were drained (letter of Sept. 28, 1959, from C. N. Russell, president of Manistee County Historical Society, to EGV, quoted in Mich. Bot. 4: 13-14. 1965). Not the same as Canfield Lake, 3 miles to the southeast. ] Cannon’s farm [MACOMB]: J. Cannon’s, Washington [Tp.] (cf. DC 1850 label for Agrostis gigantea). Caribou Island [KEWEENAW (Isle Royale)]: East and West Caribou Islands are immediately SW of Mott Island in the Isle Royale archipelago (only known site which of the two was not stated—for Antennaria rosea in Michigan). [Should not be confused with the larger and more remote Caribou Island in eastern Lake Superior, Ontario, Canada. | Carlton [MONROE]: = Carleton (cf. CFW label for Uvularia sessilifolia).

Chamberlin Marsh [OAKLAND]: Addison [Tp.] (cf. DC label for Carex tetanica var. meadit). Chandler’s Marsh [CLINTON]: over 3000 acres once owned by Zachariah Chandler, U.S. Senator from Michigan (bought by him from the Agricultural College, fide Ceasar 1978 p, 27-28); the marsh mostly in Clinton Co., incl. all portions near the RR (cf. soils map), but the S part does extend into Ingham Co. (cf. 1933 soils map). Chandler Farm was “3 miles N of M.A.C.” [Mich. Agric. College] (cf. CFW 1901 label for Senecio pauperculus; cf. also Mich. History 65(3): 10, May-June 1981, and esp. 82(6): 52-53, Nov.—Dec. 1998). Christianna Lake [CASS]: (J. A. Nieuwland in 1924 etc.). Clark Lake [JACKSON]: of the 15 Michigan lakes bearing this name, the one in Jackson Co.

Clifton (or Cliff) [KEWEENAW]: village at the great Cliff Mine site, nearly 3 miles SW of Eagle River (with shafts in several sections, including sec. 36, T58N, R32W, and adjacent sec. 1, TS57N). Oliver A. Farwell (father of the botanist) was agent in charge of the mine from 1871 (coming from the nearby Phoenix Mine) until his death in 1881. OAF the botanist collected extensively in the Cliff area.

Acad. 22: 148. 1921) that his (and EAB’s) Gogebic County headquarters in 1919 were “at Bent’s camp on the south side of Mamie Lake and less than a mile from the Wisconsin line.” The lake was said to cover “nearly a square mile.” The location for their 1920 field work was likewise “in the vicinity of Bent’s Camp in the southeastern part of the county.” (Pap. Mich. Acad. 1:74. 1923). Dr. Darlington confirmed in conversation with me that the camp was on the south side of Mamie Lake. Yet, Michigan maps show Mamie lake almost entirely in Wisconsin (and Wisconsin maps concur), with barely the northern tip extending into Michigan. Bent’s Resort is shown at the S end of Mamie lake, in Wisconsin well south of the Michigan line (not north of the state line), in a map [?1932] of Gogebic County, drawn by George W. Koronski, Gogebic County Engineer; however, on that map a narrow strait of Mamie Lake is shown north into Michi- gan. How far from “Bent’s Camp” HTD and EAB collected would determine the county (Gogebic in Michigan or Vilas in Wisconsin). And of course “Mamie Lake” may once have included what later maps separately identify as East Bay 2005 VOSS: MICHIGAN GAZETTEER 209 Lake (entirely in Michigan) and West Bay Lake (partly in Michigan), these three areas separated from each other by more or less narrow straits, with East Bay even included in West Bay Lake in a 1917 plat map.] Manhattan Mine [KEWEENAW]: immediately south of Cliff Mine (q.v.), but never achieved its production. Manitou Isl. (and adjacent Gull Rock) [KEWEENAW]: (cf. Beacon 20(2): 10-12, Summer 2002). [North Manitou and South Manitou islands in Lake Michigan are entirely different, in Leelanau Co.] Manly farms [MACOMB]: Macomb [Tp.] (cf. DC 1845 labels for Carex intumescens and C. retrorsa).“J. W. Manley’s farm” on 1845 Sparganium eurycarpum label is uncertain; 1875 plat shows it in sec. 3, Shelby Tp., but there is no such clue on 1859 plat. Marl Bay [CHEBOYGAN]: northwest bay of Douglas Lake (UMBS). Mason [BRANCH]: an old name (also Masonville) for Coldwater (First Survey; cf. McVaugh 1970, pp. 242-243). [Do not confuse with city of Mason, county seat of Ingham Co.—nor with Mason Co. or any of the three or more other Masons in Michigan, all presumably named for the state’s first governor, Stevens T. Mason. | McCallum’s Creek [HOUGHTON]: E of Torch Lake (OAF 1943). McCracken’s marsh [MACOMB]: Washington [Tp.] (cf. DC label for Aster lateriflorus).

Mesnard, Mount [MARQUETTE]: sec. 34-35, T48N, R35W (Dachnowski in 1906 et al.: cf. Rep. Mich. Acad. 9: 89. 1908). Michigan Hollow: [This is a sedge fen ca. 16 km SW of Ithaca, New York, and is not in the state of Michigan at all.] Michigan State Col.: [Specimens so labeled by Asa Gray (GH) were sent to him by the First Survey and refer to a State Collection, not to the Michigan Agricultural College, which was not founded until 1855, with the name changed to Michigan State College in 1925. Attributing these specimens to Ingham Co., as done in some monographs (cf. discussion of some Lysimachia taxa in Mich. Bot. 6: 20-21. 1967), is a gross anachronism; the specimens in fact came from various sites around the state (cf. also McVaugh 1970).] Middle Beach [OAKLAND]: (OAF 1943, for specimen from M. T. Bingham). Military Hill [ONTONAGON]: near Lake Mine (Greenland Tp.). Mill Rd. [OAKLAND/WAYNE]: = Southfield Rd. (OAF collections of June 23, 1920, are from Wayne Co. [OAF 1943]). 210 CONTR. UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN HERBARIUM VOLUME 24 Mill Rd. & Grand River [WAYNE]. Mill Rd. woods [WAYNE]: Detroit (Redford) (cf. OAF labels for Polygonatum pube- scens and also citations in Am. Midl.

Miller’s [MACOMB]: Worcester Miller’s, Washington [Tp.] (cf. DC 1848 label for Carex normalis). Milwaukee Jct. [WAYNE]: RR junction 4 miles N from Detroit station on the Grand Trunk system (cf. Mich. Man.), Mines. Locating old mine-sites can be a problem, but some early botanists did collect at such locations. (Some mining operations imported physicians from New Eng- land, and some of these —as was common in that day—collected plants. James Watson Robbins is perhaps the most prolific of the physicians who collected in the “Copper Country” [see Voss 1978, p. 77].) A number of individual mines appear alphabetically in this Gazetteer. Many old mine locations are indicated to this day on county maps, sometimes as names of associated settlements (or ghost towns). In addition, the following list of early copper mines may prove helpful: the locations are from a “Tabular Statement of the Mines in the Lake Superior Land District” (in Foster & Whitney 1850, pp. 146-151); counties are added but not all sites are verified (e.g., the first one): Adventure [ONTONAGON]: SW%4 sec. 35, T58N, R38W [evident error for TSN (the indicated tp. does not exist)]. Albion [KEWEENAW]: sec. 11, T57N, R32W. Bohemian [KEWEENAW]: SE% sec. 29, T58N, R29W. Cliff [KEWEENAW]: SW4, sec. 36, TS8N, R32W. Copper Falls [KEWEENAW]: SE sec. 11, T58N, R31 W.

Siskawit [KEWEENAW (Isle Royale): SE% sec. 34, T66N, R34W. 2005 VOSS: MICHIGAN GAZETTEER 211 Misery Bay [ONTONAGON|]: at mouth of Misery River near Houghton County line, on Lake Superior (OAF 1943; Lewis Foote in Aug. 1865— but there is also a Misery Bay in Alpena Co.). Monfore [MACOMB]: vic. of Disco, Shelby [Tp.] (cf. DC labels for Polygonum hydropiperoides and Solidago speciosa). Mont Lake [LIVINGSTON]: ca. 3.5 miles N of Brighton (now = Clark Lake) on line between sec. 7, T2N, R6E, and sec. 12, T2N, RSE (Mary Clark collected here ca. 1838). Montreal [HOUGHTON]: (OAF 1943). Montreal River [KEWEENAW]: (OAF 1943). Moon’s marsh [MACOMB]: (?sec. 7, Washington Tp. [only Moon property in 1859 Macomb Co. plat]; cf. DC label for Gentianopsis procera). Morris’ farm [MACOMB]: Benj. Morris’, Ray [Tp.] (DC in 1845, cf. label for Lactuca biennis). Morrison’s [MACOMB]: Shelby [Tp.]: (DC in 1841). Mount(ain): [see specific name]. Mud Lake [ALCONA|]: renamed Barton City in 1912 (CFW et al. in 1888; cf. Voss & Crow 1976, p. 29). Mud Lake [CHEBOYGAN]: the most often cited (UMBS) Mud Lake in Cheboygan Co. is mostly in sec. 7, T37N, R2W (Inverness Tp.); much of the bog is now in the Wendy O’Neil Preserve of the Little Traverse Conservancy. Some other of the county’s Mud Lakes have been “renamed” by UMBS people (cf. Blanchard Lake above). Mud Lake [probably DICKINSON]: Of over 300 “Mud Lakes” in Michigan, there appear to be none “25 miles southeast of Ishpeming” (F. P. Metcalf, Sept. 1922), which would be in Alger Co.; however, there are several in northeastern Dickin- son Co., + SSW of Ishpeming, and probably where the collector was (cf. his labels for Andromeda glaucophylla and Ledum groenlandicum, A). Mud Lake [WASHTENAW]: ca. 2 miles SW of Whitmore Lake in Webster Tp. and now a research property of the University of Michigan (Crispin 1980); but there are 6 other Mud Lakes in the county indexed by Humphrys, not including any in R2S, R7E (Superior Tp.), as apparently mapped by Walpole (1924). N Natural Wall [HOUGHTON]: ravine near Old Colony Mine, which was in sec. 18, TS6N, R32W (OAF Aug. 26, 1935) Neasmith Crossing [KALAMAZOO]: on Grand Trunk RR, Schoolcraft Tp. (CRH, cf. his Flora, p. 255, under Rudbeckia triloba). Neithercut Woodland [CLARE]: sec. 17, T17N, RSW (Surrey Tp.) (an outdoor educa- tion tract of Central Michigan University). ie CONTR. UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN HERBARIUM VOLUME 24 Nelson Lake [CHEBOYGAN]: on line between secs. 15 and 22, T38N, R3W; a county road bisects the [drying or intermittent] lake, which shows on older county maps as Nolten Lake, as does a different lake (UMBS). New Baltimore [MACOMB/ST. CLAIR]: on the county line (OAF’s nos. 8551-8569 in 1929 are attributed to the St. Clair Co. side of the line [cf. his field notes]; he attributes 6389 and 6390 in 1922 to Macomb Co. Some other collectors may not have been so precise). For A. J. Pieters’ 1893 collections from Lake St. Clair near New Baltimore (cf. Bull. Mich. Fish Comm. 2. 1894), his map shows no county line — which would be just W of 80°45'W longitude as shown on his map; if a label mentions some specific site or station in the lake, it may be possible to assign a county. New England Mine [MARQUETTE]|:sec. 16,T47N, R27W (Mary Clark in 1871 and LeT2); Newburg Dam [CALHOUN]: on N Branch, Kalamazoo River, 0.5 miles W of Jack- son Co. line. Nichols’ Bog [CHEBOYGAN]: a farm pond in sec. 2, T36N, R3W (UMBS). Nigger Creek [|CHEBOYGAN]: now renamed as the less offensive “Mullett Creek.” flowing into Mullett Lake ca. 2 miles NE of Topinabee (UMBS). Nolten Lake [CHEBOYGAN]: on older maps = Nelson Lake (see above); both older and later maps (incl. USGS Mullett Lake quad) show a lake of this name in sec. 18, T38N R3W and this is also known as Nolten Fen (UMBS). Normal [MARQUETTE]: = Northern State Normal School (now Northern Michi- gan University), Marquette (A. Dachnowski in 1906). [“Normal” is also short- hand on labels (CMC) for the Central State Normal School (now Central Michi- gan University) in Mt. Pleasant. Similarly, expect the same cryptic abbreviation for the former Normal Schools in Kalamazoo (Western Michigan University) and Ypsilanti (Eastern Michigan University), so that context such as origin of herbarium specimens may be needed for interpretation. | North Cliff Pond [KEWEENAW]: (OAF 1943). North Park [KENT]: west of Softwater Lake. Norton Hills [OAKLAND]: Oakland [Tp.] (cf. DC 1839 label for Carex muhlenbergit). Norton’s [MACOMB]: Hugh Norton’s meadow, Ray [Tp.] (cf. DC label for Carex fenera). O Oak Grove [BAY]: presumably sec. 8, TI4N, R6E (G. M. Bradford in 1893 and 1901). Oakwood [WAYNE]: site noted for halophytes, on River Rouge in sec. 28, Ecorse Tp. Originally named Navarre, renamed Oakwood in 1918, but annexed by Detroit in 1922 (Romig). (OAF, CB, et al. Sept. 23 and 30, 1916: sept. 15, 1918: cf. Rhodora 18: 243-244 [1916] and Am. Midl.

Ott Preserve [CALHOUN]: Harvey N. Ott Preserve, 315-acre natural area in secs. 3, 4,9, and 10,T2S, R7W (Emmett Tp.). Established in 1926 as the Battle Creek College Biological Preserve; when that college closed, Albion College obtained the tract and dedicated it as the Ott Preserve; sold in 1977 by Albion to Calhoun County to be administered through the Parks Commission (Crispin 1980; pers. comm., W. J. Gilbert). Overlook Farm [CHARLEVOIX]: SW% sec. 22, Eveline Tp. (Eisendrath in 1959— 1970). Owen Woods [WAYNE]: Detroit (cf. 1900 W. Cook label for Aster laevis). P Paige (Page) [EMMET]: on Little Traverse Bay (near S edge sec. 16, T35N, RSW) along the RR between Menonaqua Beach and Ramona Park. (cf. 1902 plat map); CWE often collected here 1899-1923.

Voss & Crow 1976, pp. 39-40, footnote 49). Paradise [GRAND TRAVERSE]: community near the Kingsley RR station and later incorporated into the village of Kingsley, in Paradise Tp. (CFW et al. in 1888; cf. Voss & Crow 1976, p. 61). [Quite different from the village of Paradise on Whitefish Bay in Chippewa Co.| Paris [KENT]: collectors in the Grand Rapids area (e.g., H. M. Bailey in the 1890s) refer to Paris Tp., in Kent Co.—not to the Mecosta Co. community (originally named Parish for a founder, but the final A was inexplicably dropped; cf. Mich. History 71(2): 15, March-April 1987). Parkedale [OAKLAND]: near Rochester (S of the Van Hoosen farm). OAF collected extensively here, at the research property owned by his employer, Parke, Davis & Co., which acquired it in 1908. [Three photos of the “Parke-Davis Biologi- cal Farm” are between pp. 46 and 47 in Eula Pray, History of Avon Township 1820-1940 (Ann Arbor, 1986), with relevant text on pp. 55-S8. The facility was sold in 1998 by Warner-Lambert, which had absorbed Parke, Davis. For OAF’s flora of Parkedale, including description and map, see Rep. Mich.

Penny Lake [CHEBOYGAN]: NE% sec. 15, T38N R3W (UMBS). Peter White’s Camp [ALGER]: 800 acres on Whitefish Lake, ca. 4 miles S of Deerton. CKD collected here in 1916; cf. R. D. Williams, 1905, The Honorable Peter White, pp. 201 and 203).

Mich. Conservancy News, Spring 1993.| Pewabic Mine [HOUGHTON]: associated with the Quincy Mine (which purchased it in 1891) on the north side of Portage Lake at Hancock. Phillips farm [KENT]: see Felt-boot factory, above. Philps [?] [?MACOMB]: (DC 1852 label for Glyceria septentrionalis has “Philps” but no tp.; 1875 Macomb Co. plat map shows J. & N. Phelps in Washington and Bruce Tps.). Pickerell Lake [MARQUETTE]: = Harlow Lake near Little Presque Isle, NW of Marquette (Dachnowski in 1906; cf. 1907 topo map). Pier Cove [ALLEGAN]: lumber port in sec. 5, T2N, R16W (cf. 1901 soils map; mail was supplied through the Ganges P.O. a mile to the SE). Pigeon or Pigeon Prairie [ST.

Pingree Woods [OAKLAND]: (OAF 1943), Point Detour [DELTA]: at tip of Garden Peninsula (Lewis Foote on Sept. 22, 1863, was at this place [““N. W. shore L. Michigan” on his label for Calamintha arkansana|—not the eastern tip of the Upper Peninsula mainland in Chippewa Co. Porky Point [?GOGEBIC]: location unknown, but presumably not far from Thou- — sand Island Lake (EAB, July 3, 1920; HTD could recall no location when I queried him). Portage Lake [CRAWFORD]: former name of 1300-acre Lake Margrethe west of Grayling (CFW et al. in 1888; cf. Voss & Crow 1976, pp. 45-47). [There are still about a dozen Portage Lakes altogether in Michigan. ] Portage Lake [LIVINGSTON/WASHTENAW}]: E. B. Mains’ 1913 collections were made at Gaige’s cottage at N end of the lake (Livingston Co.), he once told me. 2005 VOSS: MICHIGAN GAZETTEER Z15 OAF on June 12, 1921, collected in Dexter Tp., Washtenaw Co.

Pottawatomie Park [BERRIEN]: sec. 21, Hagar Tp. (CKD in 1917). Pottawattomie Bayou [OTTAWA]: on the Grand River in Grand Haven Tp., SE of Grand Haven (CWB et al.). Potts’ Farm [ALCONA]: N% NW4 sec. 2 and NE4 NE% sec. 3, T26N, RSE (CFW et al. in 1888; cf. Voss & Crow 1976, p.27). Potts’ Headquarters [OSCODA|]: = McKinley, sec. 15, T26N, R4E (CFW et al. in 1888; cf. Voss & Crow 1976, p. 35). Powell Lake [OAKLAND]: near Oxford (OAF on Sept. 24, 1924). Powers, Dr. [MACOMB]: Shelby [Tp.]| (cf. DC label for Mollugo verticillata). Pratt Lake [GLADWIN]: T19N, R2W. Of the four lakes bearing this name, in as many counties, the one visited by F Comte in Aug. 1956 (specimens at MO) must have been the Gladwin Co. one, for the species collected would not have all occurred near any of the other Pratt Lakes. | Presque Isle [MARQUETTE]: on N side of city of Marquette (Dachnowski in 1906 et al.). Presque Isle [PRESQUE ISLE]: Lewis Foote’s collecting on June 15, 1863, must have een in Presque Isle Co. On June 17 he was collecting at Ephraim, Wisconsin, and he could hardly have gotten there via the Presque Isle in Marquette Co., on Lake Superior. Preston’s Mill Pond [MACOMB]: NE of Disco in Shelby Tp. on Middle Branch of Clinton River (cf. M. A. Leeson, History of Macomb County and DC 1840 labels for Potamogeton amplifolius and Myriophyllum heterophyllum). Price’s Mill Pond [OAKLAND]: Avon [Tp.] (cf. 1872 Oakland Co. plat map and DC 1839 labels for Sagittaria cuneata and Ceratophyllum demersum—or Oakland [Tp.] (cf. 1839 label for Elodea canadensis). [Avon Tp. was separated from Oak- land in 1835.] Q Quanicassee [BAY/TUSCOLA|]: R. R. Dreisbach collected here (as “Quanticasse”) May 22, 1927, and Sept. 6, 1931. He labeled all his specimens as from Bay Co.; however, in his field notes he corrected nos. 5491-5499 and 7598-7602 to Tuscola Co. He left 5500-5504 and 7603-7605 as Bay Co. This distinction is also borne out by his exchange records. So it seems clear that he became aware of the proximity of the county line to this Tuscola Co. community. (Nos. 6192-6208, Aug. 26, 1928, are all unchanged as recorded, for Tuscola Co.) 216 CONTR. UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN HERBARIUM VOLUME 24 Quincy Mine [HOUGHTON]: on NE side of Hancock. Quincy Hill here is the classic site for Juncus inflexus in Michigan; cf. Rhodora 43: 633 (1941) and Pap. Mich. Acad. 30: 59 (1945). [Neither should be confused with the village of Quincy in Branch Co., where B. B.

Reese’s Bog (Swamp) [CHEBOYGAN]: cedar swamp at the north end of Burt Lake (UMBS). Reform School [INGHAM]: at Lansing, later called the Industrial School for Boys (cf. Wheeler in 1892, Carex lupuliformis). Reserve [MACOMB]: Washington [Tp.] (cf. DC labels for Glyceria striata, Carex cephaloidea, C. laxiculmis, C. grayi, etc.). Resolute [KEWEENAW]: (OAF 1943). Rice Lake [HOUGHTON]: near eastern border of Keweenaw Co. (OAF). Rockport [ALPENA]: sec. 6, T32N, RYE (cf. letter in Mich. History 65(5): 4, Sept— Oct. 1981). Rogers Creek [VAN BUREN]: (Nieuwland in 1919; cf. one of his collections of Taxus canadensis, ND). Rosedale [EMMET]: E edge of Petoskey, at Bay View (cf. 1902 plat map—and cur- rent street sign). [Note that there was also a Rosedale in Chippewa Co., from which I have seen no collections. | Roth, Camp Filibert [IRON]: on W side of Golden Lake, sec. 26, T44N, R37W (Univ. of Michigan forestry camp, originally established in 1929 in Alger Co., W of Munising, but moved in June of 1935 to Golden Lake; property sold in the 1990s). Ruby’s [MACOMB]: Elisha Ruby’s, Shelby [Tp.] (cf. 1851 DC label for Polygonum punctatum). [Not the same as Ruby in Clyde Tp., St. Clair Co.] S Saginaw Forest [WASHTENAW]: 80-acre tract in sec. 26, T2S, RSE, planted (start- ing in 1904) with diverse trees and including Third Sister Lake: administered by the University of Michigan School of Natural Resources and Environment 2005 VOSS: MICHIGAN GAZETTEER pAly (originally named “The Saginaw Forestry Farm” as requested by the donor of the land, Arthur Hill of Saginaw, but not situated in Saginaw. The name was changed in 1919 to “The Saginaw Forest.”). Sailors Encampment [CHIPPEWA]: near the S end of Neebish Island, in the St. Mary’s River (not the entire island as indicated by Romig). (E. T. & S. A. Harper collected here in 1897 and 1898.) St. Clair Flats [ST. CLAIR]: at mouth of St. Clair River, in Lake St. Clair; long dredged to accommodate navigation (old maps, history, etc., in Beacon 19(4), Winter 2001-02). St. Joseph [BERRIEN]: Caution! Note that this city in Berrien Co. is 35 and more miles from St. Joseph Co.— but some 1837 First Survey labels confuse the issue by omitting “Co.” (cf. McVaugh 1970, p. 243). St. Martin Island [DELTA]: in Lake Michigan S of Garden Peninsula, just before the Wisconsin line. (For history of collecting, cf. Judziewicz, Mich. Bot. 40: 139-140. 2002 [“2001”]). [Not to be confused with the St. Martin Island in St. Martin Bay north of Mackinac Island, in Mackinac Co.] Salmon Trout River [HOUGHTON]: mouth on Lake Superior near Redridge (Lewis Foote in 1865; cf. also Lt. Allen’s 1832 mention [Mason 1958, p. 179]). Salmon Trout River [MARQUETTE]: this one flows into Lake Superior at Salmon Trout Bay west of Salmon Trout Pt., and is perhaps better known than the pre- ceding, which was early called “Little” Salmon Trout (cf. Peters in Mich. Acade- mician 18: 412. 1986). Sand Bay [KEWEENAW]: (OAF 1943; “Great Sand Bay” is between Eagle River and Eagle Harbor). Sand Lake [?JACKSON or KALAMAZOO]: “8 or 10 miles from the village of Jack- sonburgh” [original name for Jackson] (J. Wright in 1838 on label for Eleocharis equisetoides, NY). [There are over 20 other Sand Lakes in Michigan—but Humphrys does not include this one.] On the other hand, McVaugh (1970, p. 243) notes a “Sand Lake” 8 or 10 miles from Kalamazoo mentioned in a letter from John Wright (botanist with the First Survey) to John Torrey; this would accord with “Sandy Lakes” on old maps in the Austin Lake area. Sands [MARQUETTE]: station on the Chicago & Northwestern RR 13 miles SE of Negaunee; presumably this is the “Sands” of A. Dachnowski in 1906 (and not the village of Sands ca. 3 miles to the north—neither, however, in the Marquette Quadrangle, which Dachnowski surveyed). [Named for Louis Sands, not for the dry sandy plains there, as described by Dachnowski in Rep. Mich. Acad. 9: 94. 1908. ] Sawmill Creek [HOUGHTON]: flows into Torch Lake E of Lake Linden (OAF 1943). [There is also a Sawmill Creek in Chippewa Co. just N of Paradise and doubtless are others. ] School Girl’s Glen [WASHTENAW]: (sometimes abbreviated on labels “S. G. G.”) ravine S of Huron River and N of Forest Hill Cemetery, Ann Arbor, now in W part of Nichols Arboretum; designation once more broadly applied to the whole Arboretum area (cf. A. D. Tinker, “The birds of School Girl’s Glen, Ann Arbor, Michigan: A study in local ornithology,” Mich. Geol. Biol. Surv. Publ. 1, Biol Ser. 1: 35-66 + 4 pl. + folded map. 1910). 218 CONTR.

Scranton’s, Washington [Tp., sec. 27] (cf. DC 1844 label for Echinochloa walteri,; “Scranton Marsh” [Eleocharis erythropoda in 1847 and Carex lacustris in 1843] presumably the same). Sedge Pt.

(CRH, cf. his label for Cornus canadensis and his Flora for Panicum tsugetorum and Quercus ellipsoidalis), Sharon Hollow [WASHTENAW]: mostly in sec. 29, Sharon Tp.; now the Nan Weston Preserve of The Nature Conservancy. Shaw [MACOMB]: Marvil Shaw, Washington Tp. (DC in 1841). Shelby [MACOMB]: the township (T3N, R12E) in Macomb Co. is immediately south of Washington (where Dennis Cooley and William A. Burt lived). [It should not be confused with the village of Shelby (in another Shelby Tp.) in Muskegon Co. on the opposite side of the state. ] Shelbyville [ALLEGAN]: (OAF in 1920 and 1923; his notes and original labels say Kalamazoo Co.— presumably a carry-over from Galesburg, where he was imme- diately before — but his 1943 manuscript says Allegan Co.) Sheldon Sawmill [MACOMB]: (DC, presumably sec. 16, Ray Tp., on Clinton River). Shelter Bay [ALGER]: west of Au Train Bay (Lewis Foote in 1867). Sherman [ST.

[But in 1931 he collected at a Spring Lake in New Jersey (cf. his label for Hypochaeris).] Springwells [WAYNE]: community (north of Ecorse and east of Dearborn) and later township now incorporated in Dearborn; in 1835 Bela Hubbard (Douglass Houghton’s assistant in the First Survey 1837-1845 and a prominent citizen of Detroit) acquired a farm here from which First Survey plants labeled “Spring- wells” very probably came. Spur 447 [CHIPPEWA]: on Soo Line RR. ca. 2.5 miles W of Trout Lake. Spur 459 [CHIPPEWA]: on Soo Line RR ca. 9 miles E of Trout Lake. [According to “Tales & Trails of Tro-La-Oz-Ken” (a 1976 local history of the Trout Lake area), p. 85, Spur 459 was once a community of 100 persons, had a P.O. 1910-1915, and was “one mile south of Ozark” —that location apparently erroneous (it would better locate Kenneth). ] Squaw Island [WAYNE—if not Ontario, Canada]: location unknown (McVaugh 1970, pp. 237 and 243) but quite possibly = Mama Juda Island (q.v.) “named from an old squaw” (Farmer p. 7) (First Survey in 1837; cf. label on Lysimachia thyrsiflora). [Since the label, in the hand of Bela Hubbard, Houghton’s assistant, says “Detroit River” presumably this was not the tiny Squaw Island shown on the old Maumee Bay topo quadrangle (surveyed in 1899) between the south ends of Indian Island and Guard Island on the north side of Maumee Bay, Monroe Co.

Wynne University of Michigan Herbarium Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology Ann Arbor, Michigan 48109 In his monographic treatment of Australian representatives of Scinaia, Huisman (1985) offered persuasive evidence for the merger of the genera Pseudoscinaia and Pseudogloiophloea with Scinaia. This taxonomic treatment resulted in a number of transfers of names into Scinaia. One such transfer effected was Scinaia australis (Setch.) Huisman, based on Pseudoscinaia australis Setch. (Setchell 1914). This bino- mial has been accepted in several floristic accounts, such as Millar (1990), Millar and Kraft (1993), and Womersley (1994). The species has also been reported as present in the Canary Islands (Reyes et al., 1993; Haroun et al. 2002). It is listed as an accepted taxon in the on-line AlgaeBase (Guiry & Nic Dhonncha 2003). Yet, Scinaia australis of Huisman is an illegitimate name, a later homonym of S. australis (Sond.) Trevis. (Trevisan 1848). Therefore, a new name is proposed. Scinaia acuta M. J. Wynne, nom. nov. Pseudoscinaia australis Setch., Univ. Calif. Publ. Bot. 6: 121, fig. 62, 1914. Scinaia australis (Setch.) Huisman, Phycologia 24: 417.1985, non Scinaia australis (Sond.) Trevis., 1848. The epithet acuta alludes to the acutely pointed apices of the branches in both young and mature specimens, a feature stated to be consistent and distinctive for this species (Huisman 1986). When discussing taxonomic relationships of his Scinaia australis, Huisman (1986) stated that among possibly related species “only S. verae (Dickinson) Huisman ap- proaches the thallus dimensions of S. australis.” He distinguished this pair of species on the basis of branch diameters; those of his S. australis rarely reach 2 mm, whereas those of S. verae reach 2.75 mm. Dickinson (1951) described her species from Pram- pram, Gold Coast [Ghana], and it appears to be endemic to that area of tropical West Africa (Lawson & John 1987; Woelkerling et al. 1998). Scinaia australis (Sond.) Trevis. is currently treated as a taxonomic synonym of Nizymenia conferta (Sond.) Chiovitti, G. W. Saunders & Kraft in Chiovitti et al. (1995). Earlier, Silva (1950) had recognized Stenocladia australis (Sond.) P. C. Silva, based on Ginannia australis Sond. (Sonder 1845). The merger of Stenocladia with Nizymenia proposed by Chiovitti et al. (1995) led to the proposal of N. conferta in their paper. ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I thank reviewers C. W. Schneider and M. D. Guiry for constructive comments. Za, 228 CONTR.

Wynne University of Michigan Herbarium Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology Ann Arbor, Michigan 48109 USA Apstract. Two new species of the green algal genus Bryopsis, B. nana, and B. robusta, are described on the basis of collections made from Dhofar, Sultanate of Oman. Bryopsis nana is of relatively small stat- ure (4-8 mm tall) and has radial branching (to a single order, the branches only 0.5—1.0 mm long). Bryopsis robusta is distinguished by its large size (to 11 cm in height and primary axes to 2.0 mm in diameter) and the distichous nature of its branches (to three orders). The new species are known only from southern Oman, a region impacted by the summertime monsoon of nutrient-rich, relatively cold-water conditions. A census of the 47 other species currently recognized as belonging to the genus Bryopsis. Full literature citations are provided for all accepted names in Bryopsis as well as all doubtful and excluded names. One new combination, Bryopsis cupressina var. adriatica, is proposed. INTRODUCTION The genus Bryopsis Lamouroux (Bryopsidales, Chlorophyta) has a wide dis- tribution in tropical to cool temperate seas. Populations of Bryopsis hypnoides J. V. Lamour. occurring at Helgoland in the North Sea have been shown to tolerate water temperatures from 0° to 30° C (Liining 1984). Not only is a significant morphologi- cal diversity recognized in the genus, but a variety of life-history patterns has been demonstrated (Rietema 1970, 1971; van den Hoek et al. 1972; Bartlett & South 1973; Diaz-Piferrer & Burrows 1974; Tanner 1981; Bold & Wynne 1985). Some of these morphological and life-history differences have led to the recognition of segregate genera, such as Bryopsidella (Hustede 1964; Rietema 1972, 1975) and Pedobesia (MacRaild & Womersley 1974). Previously, Bryopsis pennata J. V. Lamour. (Barratt et al. 1984), B. maxima Oka- mura ex Segawa (Wynne 1999b), B. plumosa (Huds.) C. Agardh (Wynne 2001b), B. hypnoides, and B. indica A. Gepp & E. Gepp (Schils & Coppejans 2003) have been reported from the Sultanate of Oman. A recent treatment of the genus Bryopsis occurring in Pakistan, another part of the northern Arabian Sea, by Nizamuddin (1995) reported a somewhat surprising total of 16 species. That total included four newly described species and eight new records for Pakistan. Perhaps it is then not unexpected that intensive collecting of a different region of the northern Arabian Sea, namely, the southern (Dhofar) coast of the Sultanate of Oman, has also revealed the occurrence of two undescribed species of Bryopsis. This up-to-now little explored coastline has provided a rich source of previously unknown taxa of benthic marine algae (Nizamuddin & Campbell 1995; Wynne 1998, 1999a, 1999b, 2001a, 2002a, 2002b, 2003a, 2003b, 2003c, 2004; Wynne & de Jong 2002; Schils & Coppejans 2002; Schils et al. 2003). The complex composition of this flora on the Dhofar coast has been attributed in part to the dominating summertime monsoon season with its upwelling associated with decreased water temperatures, raised nutrient levels, and high-energy wave conditions (Wynne 2000, 2004). 229 230 CONTR.

The collection consisted of many small thalli removed from the surface of a gas- tropod shell. The thalli are in tight caespitose clumps (Fig. 1); individual erect thalli reach 5 to 8 mm (Figs. 2-5). Primary axes are 315-410 um wide in their greatest diam- eter (above the base) and gradually decrease in diameter distally. Thalli are branched only to a single order, the lateral branches radially arranged and largely confined to the distal ends of the parent axes (Figs. 2-5). The lateral branches are usually 500-780 (—940) um long and 150-200 (—260) pm in diameter at their mid-point. Scars of shed 2005 WYNNE: BRYOPSIS 231 Figs. 2-5. Bryopsis nana. Examples of primary axes with radial arrangement of branches at distal end (camera-lucida drawings). laterals are evident along much of the length of the primary axes (Figs. 2-5). Scars measure about 40-50 im in diameter. Chloroplasts (Fig. 9) are discoidal, 34 (-7) pm across, each with a single pyrenoid. The two most striking characteristics of B. nana are its very small size and the radial nature of the branching. The presence of these two character states facilitates our comparison of the new species mainly to those species of Bryopsis with similarly small stature and radial branching. Nizamuddin (1995) in his study of Bryopsis as occurring on the coast of Pakistan listed a total of 16 species, but only two of those species were said to have radial branching, B. hypnoides and B. corymbosa J. Agardh. Along with B. plumosa, the type of the genus, B. hypnoides is one of the most fre- quently reported species of the genus; it has been reported from Kuwait (Al-Hasan & Jones 1989) and the Gulf coast of Saudi Arabia (De Clerck & Coppejans 1996). Thalli of B. hypnoides are typically described as 5-10 cm high (Nizamuddin 1995; Coppejans & Van den heede 1996; Stegenga et al. 1997a; Littler & Littler 2000). Also, branching 232 CONTR. UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN HERBARIUM VOLUME 24 in B. hypnoides is to more than a single order. These differences easily separate B. nana from B. hypnoides. The second species of Bryopsis with radial branching reported by Nizamuddin (1995) from Pakistan is B. corymbosa. Afonso-Carrillo and Sansén (1999) described the thalli of B. corymbosa as having irregular branching and the branchlets forming a terminal plume with a corymbiform aspect, which does resemble thalli of B. nana. Agardh (1842) described the fronds of B. corymbosa as “minutae, vix bipollicares [= scarcely two inches], caespitosae,” and as growing epiphytically on a species of Codium. The height of thalli in B. corymbosa has been reported as 2-10 cm (Vino- gradova 1979), about 2 cm (Bérgesen 1925), and 1-2 cm (Feldmann 1937). Bryopsis pumila was described by Zanardini (1847) from Venice as caespitose, only 8-10 mm tall, and with densely branched subcorymbose filaments. DeToni (1889) regarded B. pumila as scarcely different from B. corymbosa, and it was treated as conspecific with B. corymbosa by Cammerloher (1915) and Pignatti (1962). Thus, the lower size range of B. corymbosa [including B. pumila] approximates the height of thalli of B. nana. Thalli of B. corymbosa, however, have been depicted as having branching to three orders (Ktitzing 1856, pl. 73, fig. B, as B. fastigiata, pl. 81, fig. 11; Feldmann 1937). Both Bgrgesen (1925) and Feldmann (1937) have emphasized the very irregular ramifica- tion in B. corymbosa. These differences are sufficient to distinguish B. corymbosa from B. nana. The characterization of B. cupressina J. V. Lamour. by Afonso-Carrillo and Sanson (1999) as having radial branching, axes bearing simple branchlets only in the superior portion of the thalli, and having the lower branches not larger than the up- per branches shows similarity to B. nana. Yet, branching takes place to two or three orders in B. cupressina (Kiitzing 1856, pl. 79; Funk 1927, fig. 17D; Afonso-Carillo & Sanson 1999), which distinguishes it from B. nana. Likewise, the habit of B. feld- mannii Gallardo & G. Furnari (Gallardo et al. 1993) has radially arranged laterals borne in a terminal tuft (Kiitzing 1856, as B. cupressoides), but that species has two orders of branching and has thalli 4-5 cm in height. Bryopsis nana bears some resemblance to B. eckloniae, described as an epiphyte on the kelp Ecklonia maxima (Osbeck) Papenf. (Stegenga et al. 1997). This South African species forms expanses several centimeters in diameter, with the primary axes only 5 mm high, and also shows radial branching. Yet, the primary axes in B, eckloniae are only to 200 um in diameter (less than twice the diameter of that in B. nana), and branching occurs to two orders, with the branches not distally restricted, as seen in B. nana. Bryopsis africana Aresch. is similar to B. nana in having densely caespitose thalli usually with polystichously arranged, unbranched pinnules. Also, primary axes are 300-400 jum in diameter (Stegenga et al. 1997). Thalli in B. africana attain a height to 5 cm, branching often in short secund series, and the older ramuli produce descending rhizoids covering the primary axes, all features not observed in B. nana. Kutzing’s depiction (1856, as B. pennatula) of Bryopsis pennata var. minor J. Agardh (1887) shows very small thalli with terminal tufts of laterals, similar to the habit of B. nana. Closer scrutiny of Kiitzing’s illustrations shows the primary axes to be branched and the laterals to be distichously arranged. Thus, this taxon does not agree with B. nana. Originally, Womersley (1955) described B. minor from southern Australia as having thalli only 2 cm high, but later (Womersley 1984) he expanded the variation to include thalli to 15 cm high. Bryopsis minor, which has radial branching, is clearly separable from B. nana by its large, bushy habit, its several orders of branching, and the very slender pinnules. 2005 WYNNE: BRYOPSIS 230 Fig. 6.

This new species is known from only a single specimen (Fig. 6), which is a spread- ing plant reaching 11 cm in height and 16 cm in width; the first-order branches are 8-9 cm long. Attachment is by means of several anchoring basal rhizoids, each 4-6 mm long. The primary axis is branched to three orders. The primary axis and first- and second-order branches are robust, 1. 5—2.0 mm in diameter. Branching shows a distichous arrangement (Figs. 6,7). Branches arise sporadically, not at close, regular intervals. They may arise within a 1-mm distance, but they may also be spaced from 234 CONTR. UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN HERBARIUM VOLUME 24 Figs. 7-9.

Chloroplasts (Fig. 8) are relatively large and elongate, spindle- shaped, 10-16 um by 6-10 um, usually with a single pyrenoid, sometimes with two. In terms of its large size, B. robusta comes closest to B. maxima Okamura ex Segawa (1956), a species previously reported from Oman (Wynne 1999b). A high degree of shared floristic elements between the marine algal floras of Japan and the northern Arabian Sea has been recognized (Bgrgesen 1934; Wynne, 2000). In order to have a good understanding of the morphological variation in B. maxima, the fol- lowing specimens of Japanese and Omani collections in MICH were examined: APAN.

Personnel of Tropical Marine Research Station, a of York. 2005 WYNNE: BRYOPSIS 239 Japanese specimens of B. maxima range in height from 12 to 38 cm, whereas the Omani specimens previously identified as B. maxima are 18-19 cm tall. So in terms of height, thalli of B. maxima are taller than the single specimen of B. robusta. The most obvious difference between these two species is seen in the lateral branches; in B. maxima they are numerous, closely set, usually only 3-6 (—7) mm in length, with a smaller diameter than the parent axis. This is also obvious in depictions of B. maxima in the literature (Segawa 1956; Chihara 1970, 1975). In B. robusta, there is very little reduction in diameter of the primary axis and the various orders of branches. Furthermore, the branches are not regularly and densely arranged, but rather they are sporadically and irregularly placed, often with long intervals between adjacent branches. The habit of B. robusta is thus very different from that of B. maxima. In most of the laterals in B. robusta there is a discontinuity in the cytoplasm between the base of the lateral and the bearing axis (Fig. 7). Christensen (1994) discussed this phenomenon occurring in older branches of species of Bryopsis and noted that a wall can be formed across the narrowing. A wall per se was not detect- able in the specimen of B. robusta, but there was an obvious void of cytoplasm at the constrictions. DISCUSSION The genus Bryopsis was described by Lamouroux (1809a) and lectotypified by Egerod (1952) with B. pennata J. V. Lamour. Prior to the description of these two new species from the Sultanate of Oman, the genus has been regarded as comprising 47 species (see Appendix 1). A number of names in Bryopsis exist in the literature that are here excluded or treated as doubtful (see Appendix 2). These include names that are illegitimate, not validly published, or of “taxa inquirenda,” as well as names that were transferred to other genera. As stated earlier, Nizamuddin (1995) reported the occurrence of 16 species of Bryopsis for the coast of Pakistan, including four newly described species (B. aishae, B. pakistanica, B. manorensis, and B. qasimensis) and another eight species to repre- sent first reports for Pakistan: B. cespitosa Kiitz., B. corticulans (?) Setch., B. duplex De Not., B. fastigiata Kiitz., B. harveyana J. Agardh, B. indica A. Gepp & E. Gepp, B. penicillata Suhr, and B. pennata J. V. Lamour. The two new species of Bryopsis (B. nana and B. robusta) herein described from Oman do not match up with any of the species recognized by Nizamuddin for Pakistan. In Nizamuddin’s key to species, only two species are said to have radially branched thalli, B. hypnoides and B. corymbosa. For the Persian Gulf and the Gulf of Oman regions of Iran, Sohrabipour and Rabit (1999) reported three taxa of Bryopsis: B. pennata var. secunda, B. pennatula [=B. pennata var. minor], and B. plumosa). These taxa are also distinct from the two new species from Oman. The dimensions of the chloroplasts have been used as a criterion in distinguishing species of Bryopsis (Feldmann 1937; Pignatti 1962; Medlin 1984). Drawn to the same scale with a camera-lucida, the small size of the chloroplasts of B. nana relative to the much larger size of those of B. robusta is striking (Figs. 8, 9). The evidence supports the description of two new species of the genus Bryopsis from the northern Arabian Sea. Thus, seven species of the genus are now reported as occurring in Oman: B. hypnoides, B. indica, B. maxima, B. nana, B. pennata, B. plumosa, and B. robusta. 236 CONTR.

(1999), Frauenfeld (1854) should be credited with first proposing the combination Bryopsis adriatica rather than Menegh. ex Kiitz. (1856), which is the authorship usually cited. Yet, Kiitzing (1845, p. 252) published this combination still earlier. Bryopsis plumosa vat. adriatica (J. Agardh) Hauck (1885); Bryopsis hypnoides var. adriatica (J. Agardh) J. Agardh (1887).

Type locality: Dalmatia, coast of Adriatic Sea.—According to Pignatti (1962) the name applies to a species of Derbesia. Bryopsis arbuscula C. Agardh, Spec. alg. 1: 451. 1823, non Bryopsis arbuscula (DC.) Lamouroux (1809); Agardh excluded the type of Fucus arbuscula DC. (and thus also the type of Ulva plumosa) (Art. 48. 1). Bryopsis plumosa var. arbus- cula (C. Agardh) J. Agardh (1842). Bryopsis arbuscula (DC.) J. V. Lamour., Nouv. Bull. Sci. Soc. Philom. Paris, 1: 333. 1809, nomen superfluum. Lamouroux based the combination on Fucus arbuscula DC. in Lamarck & de Candolle, FI. frang. ed. 3, vol. 1:35. 1805, but also cited the earlier name Ulva plumosa Huds. (1778).

Icon.: Lamouroux (1813, pl. 13, fig. 2).—The applica- tion of this name is in doubt. Upon examining Lamouroux’s original material in PC, Hamel (1931) considered it to belong to Derbesia and proposed D. balbisiana (J. V. Lamour.) Hamel. Feldmann (1937), however, came up with a different conclusion after he examined original specimens deposited in Caen. Feldmann found two different genera in the envelope. The material was in part Derbesia, and in part identifiable as Bryopsis duplex, the latter bearing the name “Bryopsis balbisiensis” in Lamouroux’s handwriting. Feldmann attributed the latter specimen to Bryopsis; however, this specimen differs from Lamouroux’s illustration. Feldmann’s concept has been attributed to Bryopsis duplex. No authentic specimens of Bryopsis balbisiana now exist, and so Lamouroux’s illustration (1813, pl. 13, fig. 2) must be regarded as the type (iconotype). It cannot be resolved whether the drawing represents a species of Brvopsis or of Derbesia. Bryopsis balbisiana var. divaricata Zanardini (1847), nomen nudum.
