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.

Abstract

A taxonomic study of the genus Begonia Blume (Begoniaceae) in South East Sulawesi (Mt. Mekongga and Mt. Watuwila) were conducted based on morphological characters. Six species of Begonia were discovered. Three previously known species (Begonia aptera Blume, B. flacca Irmschr. and B. hispidissima Warburgh.), two new species and one variety were proposed and on going for publication. Some colour pictures were displayed and potential uses of each species are presented.

Abstract

A new species, Begonia tanggamusensis Girm. & M.Hughes (§ Platycentrum), is described from Gunung Tanggamus in southern Sumatra, where it is endemic. It grows on moss covered rocks and at the base of large trees in montane forests at an elevation of 1,700–2,000 m. A provisional conservation assessment places the species in the Near Threatened category.

Abstract

Miconia crenata is a widely spread species that occurs in multiple ecosystems. However, there is limited information on M. crenata invasion biology, ecology, and anatomy, particularly in the context of mountainous tropical forest and biodiversity management. Therefore, we examined elevation effects upon leaf anatomical structure of exotic invasive M. crenata at Mount Gede-Pangrango National Park (MGPNP). We sampled the leaves at four different elevations i.e., 715 m asl, 800 m asl, 900 m asl, and 1,000 m asl. Cross section leaf anatomy specimens of M. crenata were obtained by using paraffin method and stained with safranin and fast green. This study found that M. crenata leaf anatomy was correlated with elevation shown by changes in leaf tissue thickness and stomata size. Further study is needed of leaf anatomical variation of exotic invasive species along driven by soil properties and the variation across different plant taxa and growth forms. Such studies are important to determine adaptation capacity of invasiveness.
