THE FOLIAR EPIDERMIS IN TILLANDSIOIDEAE (BROMELIACEAE) AND ITS ROLE IN HABITAT SELECTION

American Journal of Botany, 1978
Structural features of the foliar epidermal surfaces of selected epiphytic members of subfamily Tillandsioideae of Bromeliaceae were examined to determine why xeromorphic nonimpounding (atmospheric) species with a dense layer of foliar trichomes are seldom found in deeply shaded humid portions of the forest profile, whereas tank‐forming members of the ...

Morphoanatomy of the ovary and ovule in Bromeliaceae subfamily Tillandsioideae and its systematic relevance [PDF]

Botanical Journal of the Linnean Society, 2016
Tillandsioideae are composed of nine genera, most of these with unclear delimitation. The morphoanatomy of ovules and ovaries of 83 species from seven different genera was studied under light or scanning electron microscopy to contribute to the understanding of the relationships in the group.

Two New Species of Tillandsia (Bromeliaceae: Tillandsioideae) from Brazil

Phytotaxa, 2022
The authors describe, discuss, and illustrate two new species of Tillandsia from a granitic outcrop in the municipality of Petrópolis, Rio de Janeiro state, and from an inselberg located in the municipality of Belo Jardim, Pernambuco state, Brazil. The species are endemic with a restricted area of distribution, being considered critically endangered ...

A new species of Werauhia (Bromeliaceae: Tillandsioideae) from the Brazilian “Hylaea”

Phytotaxa, 2020
The authors describe and illustrate Werauhia hylaeana, a new species of Tillandsioideae (Bromeliaceae) from the Amazonian “Hylaea” of Brazil. It is related to W. gladioliflora, but differs in its stature, leaf blade, and inflorescence size, in the shape of floral bracts, sepals, and petals.

Stigmatic diversity in Tillandsioideae (Bromeliaceae): a search for homologies

Botanical Journal of the Linnean Society
Abstract Tillandsioideae is the subfamily of Bromeliaceae with the most taxonomic and morphological diversity, leading to still-controversial classification in some clades and species groups. Floral morphology, especially of the stigmas, provides relevant data for the circumscription of genera and species.

Viridantha minuscula (Tillandsioideae; Bromeliaceae), a new species from Guanajuato, Mexico

Phytotaxa, 2023
Viridantha minuscula from the state of Guanajuato, Mexico, is described and illustrated as new to science. The proposed taxon is compared to V. lepidosepala and V. tortilis, species with the most similarities. Images and a distribution map of the taxa involved are provided.

Two new species in Tillandsioideae (Bromeliaceae) of Machu Picchu, Peru

Phytotaxa, 2012
Two new species belonging to the subfamily Tillandsioideae from Machu Picchu, Cusco, Peru are described and illustrated here. The new species Tillandsia machupicchuensis is close to T. tovarensis and the other new species Guzmania inkaterrae is close to G. morreniana and G. tenuifolia. Both species are abundant in the area.

Seed morphoanatomy and its systematic relevance to Tillandsioideae (Bromeliaceae)

Plant Systematics and Evolution, 2012
The morphoanatomy of mature seeds of 14 species, representing Vriesea and Tillandsia genera, was investigated in light and scanning electron microscopy to establish structural patterns of the seed coat, endosperm and embryo, allowing the distinction between both genera and contributing to the systematic of Tillandsioideae.

Leaf structure of Tillandsia species (Tillandsioideae: Bromeliaceae) by light microscopy and scanning electron microscopy

Microscopy Research and Technique, 2021
AbstractTillandsia L. is the largest genus of the family Bromeliaceae, containing 755 species and seven subgenera. Morphoanatomical studies of leaves provide useful characteristics to phylogenetic, taxonomic, and ecological analyses. This study aims to characterize and compare the leaves of 24 species of the four subgenera of Tillandsia that occur in ...
