Late 21st‐Century Climate and Land Use Driven Loss of Plant Diversity in African Mountains
By the end of this century, many African mountain plants may lose large parts of their suitable habitats as the climate warms and land use changes. Even under a sustainable pathway limiting warming to under 2°C, nearly half of the 607 studied species are projected to contract their ranges, with losses even greater under higher emission scenarios ...

Consensus classifications are crucial for conservation: How CITES utilizes checklists
Abstract The Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES) is an end‐user of the consensus classifications and checklists produced by global initiatives such as the World Flora Online (WFO). This paper provides a brief background on CITES and the impact of classification and nomenclature changes on the CITES ...

Floral structure and systematics in four orders of rosids, including a broad survey of floral mucilage cells [PDF]
Phylogenetic studies have greatly impacted upon the circumscription of taxa within the rosid clade, resulting in novel relationships at all systematic levels. In many cases the floral structure of these taxa has never been compared, and in some families,

A New C-3/C-3”-Biflavanone from the Roots of Stellera chamaejasme L
A new 3, 3”-biflavanone, neochamaejasmin C (1), was isolated from the roots of Stellera chamaejasme L., together with four known compounds. Their structures and configurations were elucidated by spectroscopic methods, including 2D-NMR techniques.

ABSTRACT Silene migjornensis is a plant species restricted to a unique location in the south of Mallorca. Its floral syndrome suggests nocturnal pollination by lepidopterans, but pollinators of this species remain unknown. Several surveys were conducted along the flowering period, and potential pollinators were captured for pollen load analyses ...

First steps towards a floral structural characterization of the major rosid subclades [PDF]
A survey of our own comparative studies on several larger clades of rosids and over 1400 original publications on rosid flowers shows that floral structural features support to various degrees the supraordinal relationships in rosids proposed by ...
