Abstract

Acanthaceae published in Flora of Java has had significant change especially for nomenclature, distribution and potential uses; thus it affected species names of collections of Acanthaceae in Herbarium Bogoriense of The Indonesian Institute of Sciences. It is therefore necessary to update information of Acanthaceae by conducting herbarium and field surveys as well as reviewing related publications. Validation of the species name, synonymous and distribution were carried out by using some online websites such as IPNI, Tropicos and The plantlist. Meanwhile, the potential uses were obtained from several publications. Examinations on herbarium specimens was conducted in the Herbarium Bogoriense, while field survey was carried out in several locations in Java. This study recorded a total of 164 species of Achantaceeae to which 53 were native in Java (Indonesia), 24 species become synonymous, and five other species have not been published. Some of them have potential chemical substances and uses.

Abstract

A taxonomic study of the wild genera of Begonia Blume {Begoniaceae) in West Java was conducted based on morphological characters. Nine known species (Begonia areolata Miq., Begonia isoptera Dryander, Begonia lepida Blume, B. longifolia Blume, B. multangula Blume, B. muricata Blume, B. repanda Blume, B. robusta Blume and B. tenuifolia Dryander) and one new species Begonia sp. was discovered. An identification key and information about potential uses of West Javas Begonia are described.

Abstract

Begonias arc unique due to asymmetric leaves, and they have large variation on their coloration and hairiness. The flower is unisexual, male and female flowers are in separate branches.The fruit with or without wings of different size and shape.Those unique characters attract them as ornamental plants, Mts. Halimun National Park has many species of wild Begonias which can be found on the forest floor.They grow in group and have essential role in mountainous forest ecosystem. Exploration for wild Begonia within forest around Cikaniki,Cirnarasa. Koridor Cianten, Gn, Botol, Gn. Bintang Gading, Gn. Sanggabuana will be presented in this paper.

Abstract

Begonia hirtella Link. is one of the introduced species that naturalized and grows wild in Java. This species has very good growing ability and potentially to be invasive at new habitat. Recently, there is no information about the status, existence and distribution of this species in Java. Consequently, it need to be informed about it status, presence and distribution more clearly. Collecting data from herbarium collections, internet connection, various references and some field trips were conducted. This information can improve knowledge and awareness of people as well as assisting monitoring and controlling for introduced plant species such as Begonia hirtella in Java, Indonesia.
