Intraspecific chromosome variation inZamia(Zamiaceae, Cycadales) [PDF]
SUMMARYIntraspecific chromosome variation in three species of Zamia (Zamiaceae, Cycadales) from Mexico and Belize is reported. Zamia fischeri has 2n = 16 and 18, Z. picta has 2n = 21 and 22, and Zamia sp. nov. has 2n = 22 and 26. All cytotypes have two submetacentric and two acrocentric chromosomes but differ in number of metacentric and telocentric ...

We present here the first quantitative assessment of plant endemics from the Manica Highlands (Zimbabwe‐Mozambique), totalling 216 taxa, representing over 9% of the estimated total flora. A major finding is that 173 (80%) endemic taxa are principally or entirely confined to open montane habitats such as grassland, bare rock, crags and scrub or dwarf ...

We aimed to conduct phylogenetic analyses of Encephalartos, a cycad genus endemic to Africa, using 3545 single‐copy nuclear genes extracted from transcriptome data, covering 64/65 of the recognized species, along with inference of divergence times using two secondary calibration points.

Abstract Over 870 species of scale insects, also called coccoids (infraorder Coccomorpha), have been recorded from Australia. Here, we systematically review literature, databases and collections to provide a revised assessment of non‐native species to Australia, for which we confirm those species that are introduced and extant in Australia (including ...

Comprehensive tree assessments for prioritising conservation action in Mesoamerica
Tree species are of ecological and social importance globally. Mesoamerica has a diverse tree flora, and the region has experienced major changes in natural habitats due to human activities. In this study, for the first time, we assessed the conservation status of the region's tree species and found that 46% of trees in the region are at risk of ...
