Abstract

In Martius, Fl. Brasil. 12 (3): 12. 1886 (in observ.) K. Schumann described a specimen (Peckolt 628) collected in Cantagallo (Rio de Janeiro), conserved in the Brussels Herbarium and marked by Martius Sterculia rex (after the local name Pao del Rey); he suggested to name it Basiloxylon rex, if it should prove to be new; the name is consequently not valid under the Rules, but it was validated by Schumann in the same year (in Berichte deutsche bot. Gesellsch. 4: 82, t. 3. 1886). The latter description was based partly on the specimen Glaziou 10310.

Abstract

The genus Belotia was founded in 1845 by A. Richard (in R. de la liagra, Hist. Cuba, Bot. 1: 207), based on a single species: B. grewiifolia; liichard added Grewia mexicana DC. (1824) as a synonym.Sprague (in Kew Bull. 1921: 270-278) wrote a monograph on the knus. He characterized Belotia as follows: Presence of nectaries at the Itase of the petals and their absence on the androgynophore; the blue or Inlet, rarely white petals, the bilocular ovary with pluriovulate loculi; the a– culicidal capsule, strongly compressed transversally to the septum and a–ediscoid ciliate seeds. He than adds: "In all these respects Belotia resem-Ihles the Old-World genus Trichospermum, which differs in having a pair of I nectaries at the base of the lamina, and a pseudo- umbellate inflorescence".The differences are consequently very small and since I found that le laminal nectaries occur only occasionally in one species of Tricho-tpermmn (javanicuvi), it becomes debatable, whether the inflorescence character is of such importance as to keep both genera apart.Burret (in Notizbl. bot. Garten Berlin 9: 603. 1927) keys out Belotia against Trichospermum in the following way: Trichospermum with 25-50 ovules,irregularly placed, as against Belotia with 12-16 ovules per locule in two regular rows; inflorescences in the former axillary and bi-or pluri-chasial,in Belotia axillary and terminal panicles.Furthermore he adds: fruit with 2, rarely 3 cells Trichospermum is to the 2-3 celled fruit in Belotia; this- of course -is a differential character of little or no value. Burret does not mention at all the laminal nectaries; according to him (p. 855) the number of ovules and their placentation should be the main differential character.I had at my disposal far more material of Trichospermum than Burret and could examine numerous young fruit,where the number of ovules and their placentation may be easily observed.

Abstract

The name Machilus was created by Rumphius (Herb. Amboin. 3: 70, 1743). The first post-Linnean description is of Desrousseaux in Lamarck, Encycl. 3:668. 1791, who, however, failed to indicate a type species (a Rumphian species) and as Machilus Rumphius consists of 4 different species belonging to 3 different genera, Machilus Desrousseauxis not acceptable as it is confusing.

Abstract

1.Papuodendron C. T. White is reduced to Hibiscus L.; the species is renamed:H. papuodendron Kosterm.2. Hibiscus hooglandianus represents a new species from New Guinea.3. New species in Pentace: P. microlepidota Kosterm., P. paludosa Kosterm. and P. adenophora Kosterm.4. Parapentace Gagnepain is included in Burretiodendron Rehd. As the species of Parapentace were published without latin diagnosis, the following new species of Burretiodendron are presented: B. tonkinensis Kosterm. and B. brilletii Kosterm.5.Two new species of Heritiera (H. rumphii Kosterm. and H. ornithocephala Kosterm.) are described; additional notes on H. littoralis from Madagascar, H. longi petiolata and H. arafurensis are presented.6. Heritiera burmensis Kosterm. is reduced to a synonym of H. macrophylla Kurz.7.Sterculia cubensis Urb. is referred to Hildcgardia; the curious distributional area of Hildegardia is stressed.8. A note on Hildegardia erythrosipkon Kosterm. is presented.9.Sterculia ankaranensis Arenes is relegated to Hildcgardia.10. Sterculia heritieriformis Arenes represents a mixture of Heritiera littoralis and Firmiana colorata.11. Sterculia guppyi Greenwood is a synonym of Firmiana diversifolia A. Gray.12. Ficus serp-yllifolia Blume belongs actually to Apocynaceae and is renamed: Micrcchites serpyllifolia (Bl.) Kosterm. It is suggested that M. radicans Markgr. is conspecific with this wide-spread species.13. Ortholobium Gagnepain, being inadmissable under the Rules (no latin diagnosis)is replaced by Cylindrokelupha Kosterm. The following new species are presented: C. poilanei Kosterm., C. platyphylla Kosterm.; C. annamcnse Kosterm. and C. chevalieri Kosterm.
