Abstract

Asteraceae is one of the largest families in the Angiosperm. It comprises of 24,000‒30,000 species which are grouped into 1,600‒1,700 genera and distributed in a cosmopolitan range. Based on Backer and Bakhuizen van den Brink’s 1965 works, they identified 227 species of Asteraceae in Java. Many of them are introduced species, both cultivated or naturalized. However, the cultivated species have not been recorded. The aim of this study is to provide information about new records of cultivated Asteraceae in Java. The observations were carried out in Bandung, Bogor, and Sumedang, during January to February 2019. Nine additional species were discovered; species belonging to genera Caputia (two species), Curio (two species), Kleinia (one species), Gymnanthemum (one species), Senecio (two species), and Tarlmounia (one species). These species were grouped into two tribes: Vernonieae and Senecioneae. This study indicates that information on Asteraceae of Java need to be updated.

Abstract

According to the Flora of Java, there is only one species of Evolvulus in Java, namely Evolvulus alsinoides. Since then, a second species was reported in 2017 from Universitas Indonesia, Depok, West Java, as an alien naturalized species. Some recent field studies have been conducted to provide updated taxonomic information of the genus on this island. The field observations were carried out in Banten, Jakarta, West Java, Jogjakarta, and East Java from March to December 2019. The herbarium studies were also conducted in Herbarium Bogoriense, Herbarium of Bogor Botanic Gardens, Herbarium Bandungense, and Herbarium of the Department of Biology, Universitas Indonesia. Our study reveals one newly recorded species of Evolvulus in Java already grown in cultivation, namely E. glomeratus Nees & Mart. subsp. grandiflorus (Parodi) Ooststr. Besides that, Evolvulus nummularius is now also reported to occur in other sites of West Java and extended to Central Java. An updated key to Evolvulus in Java, descriptions to both species, photographs, and brief discussions are provided.

Abstract

Ficus spp. belongs to the tribe Ficeae in the Moraceae family. Many members of this genus have been collected and grown in Bogor Botanic Gardens. There are 519 living collections of Ficus conserved since 1817, and 13 of them have not been identified until the species level. This research aimed to identify the Ficus sp. originated from Kaur Selatan (Bengkulu) using morphological and molecular approaches. Morphological characterization and herbarium specimen observation have been carried out to identify the Ficus sp. The molecular approach was conducted through DNA barcoding using ITS primer. The molecular identification using ITS sequence showed that Ficus sp. is Ficus crassiramea with 99.87% similarity to the sequence in NCBI. Morphological observation through herbarium specimen showed that there are 9 vegetative characters specific to Ficus crassiramea.
