Adenanthos Sect. Adenanthos

	Adenanthos Sect. Adenanthos ''Adenanthos'' sect. ''Adenanthos'' is a taxonomic section of the flowering plant genus ''Adenanthos'' (Proteaceae). It comprises 29 species. The centre of diversity is southwest Western Australia, with two species extending into South Australia and western Victoria. Description The section is characterised by flowers in which the perianth is straight, at least at first; all four stamens are fertile; and the style end is narrow, and conical or cylindrical. Taxonomy The section was first described and published by George Bentham in the 1870 fifth volume of his landmark work ''Flora Australiensis'', under the name ''Adenanthos'' sect. ''Stenolaema''. Bentham listed several diagnostic characters for the species including the straight perianth-tube; the fertility of all four anthers; and the narrow style-end. At the time of publication it contained 12 species. Bentham did not specify a type species for ''A.'' sect. ''Stenolaena'', but in modern times this is of no import, as th ...

picture info	Adenanthos Cuneatus ''Adenanthos cuneatus'', also known as coastal jugflower, flame bush, bridle bush and sweat bush, is a shrub of the family Proteaceae, native to the south coast of Western Australia. The French naturalist Jacques Labillardière originally described it in 1805. Within the genus ''Adenanthos'', it lies in the section ''Adenanthos'' and is most closely related to '' A. stictus''. ''A. cuneatus'' has hybridized with four other species of ''Adenanthos''. Growing to high and wide, it is erect to prostrate in habit, with wedge-shaped lobed leaves covered in fine silvery hair. The single red flowers are insignificant, and appear all year, though especially in late spring. The reddish new growth occurs over the summer. It is sensitive to ''Phytophthora cinnamomi'' dieback, hence requiring a sandy soil and good drainage to grow in cultivation, its natural habitat of sandy soils in heathland being an example. Its pollinators include bees, honey possum, silvereye and honeyeaters, p ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu]
picture info	Lectotype In biology, a type is a particular specimen (or in some cases a group of specimens) of an organism to which the scientific name of that organism is formally attached. In other words, a type is an example that serves to anchor or centralizes the defining features of that particular taxon. In older usage (pre-1900 in botany), a type was a taxon rather than a specimen. A taxon is a scientifically named grouping of organisms with other like organisms, a set that includes some organisms and excludes others, based on a detailed published description (for example a species description) and on the provision of type material, which is usually available to scientists for examination in a major museum research collection, or similar institution. Type specimen According to a precise set of rules laid down in the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature (ICZN) and the International Code of Nomenclature for algae, fungi, and plants (ICN), the scientific name of every taxon is almost a ...

picture info	Adenanthos Pungens ''Adenanthos pungens'', the spiky adenanthos, is a species of shrub in the family Proteaceae. It is endemic to the south-west of Western Australia. Description The species may be prostrate or erect in habit. The stiff, prickly and terete leaves are 30 mm in length and 1 to 2 mm in diameter. The flowers appear in clusters at the ends of the branchlets. These have a 30 mm long perianth which is either pale pink and cream or deeper pink. Styles are about 40 mm long, with or without hairs at the tips. The species was first formally described in 1845 in ''Plantae Preissianae'' by Carl Meissner. Subspecies There are two recognised subspecies: ''A. pungens'' subsp. ''effusus'' - erect habit with dark pink flowers. ''A. pungens'' subsp. ''pungens'' - prostrate habit with pale pink flowers. Both subspecies are highly susceptible to ''Phytophthora cinnamomi ''Phytophthora cinnamomi'' is a soil-borne water mould that produces an infection which causes a condit ...

	Adenanthos Dobagii ''Adenanthos dobagii'', commonly known as Fitzgerald woollybush, is a shrub in the family Proteaceae. It grows to a mere 50 cm ( ft) high, with crowded small silvery leaves and insignificant pink or cream flowers. It occurs only in southwestern Australia, where it is found in Fitzgerald River National Park on the south coast. Description ''Adenanthos dobagii'' grows as a small open shrub up to half a metre ( ft) high. The leaves, which are usually crowded together at the ends of branches, are from long, and deeply lobed into laciniae. They always have three primary segments, with the outer two segments usually further dividing into two, resulting in five laciniae. They appear silvery in colour, but this is due to a dense covering of hairs. Flowers occur in groups of three, borne at the ends of branches. They are pale pink or cream, and only about long, making them the smallest flowers in the genus. Overall the species is similar in appearance to '' A. flav ...

picture info	Nelson's Taxonomic Arrangement Of Adenanthos Ernest Charles Nelson's taxonomic arrangement of ''Adenanthos'' was the first modern-day arrangement of that plant genus. First published in his 1978 ''Brunonia'' article "A taxonomic revision of the genus ''Adenanthos'' (Proteaceae)", it superseded the arrangement of George Bentham, which had stood for over a hundred years. It was updated by Nelson in his 1995 treatment for the ''Flora of Australia'' series of monographs. Background ''Adenanthos'' is a genus of around 30 species in the plant family Proteaceae. Endemic to southern Australia, they are evergreen woody shrubs with solitary flowers that are pollinated by birds and, if fertilised, develop into achenes. They are not much cultivated. Common names of species often include one of the terms ''woollybush'', ''jugflower'' and ''stick-in-the-jug''. The first known botanical collection of ''Adenanthos'' was made by Archibald Menzies during the September 1791 visit of the Vancouver Expedition to King George Sound on the sout ...

	Nomenclatural Synonym The Botanical and Zoological Codes of nomenclature treat the concept of synonymy differently. * In botanical nomenclature, a synonym is a scientific name that applies to a taxon that (now) goes by a different scientific name. For example, Linnaeus was the first to give a scientific name (under the currently used system of scientific nomenclature) to the Norway spruce, which he called ''Pinus abies''. This name is no longer in use, so it is now a synonym of the current scientific name, ''Picea abies''. * In zoology, moving a species from one genus to another results in a different binomen, but the name is considered an alternative combination rather than a synonym. The concept of synonymy in zoology is reserved for two names at the same rank that refers to a taxon at that rank - for example, the name ''Papilio prorsa'' Linnaeus, 1758 is a junior synonym of ''Papilio levana'' Linnaeus, 1758, being names for different seasonal forms of the species now referred to as ''Araschnia leva ...
