Aidia Racemosa
''Aidia racemosa'' is a tree in the Rubiaceae family, native from Thailand east to the Pacific islands and south to Australia. Distribution ''Aidia racemosa'' is native to the following regions: Borneo, Caroline Islands, Christmas Island, Gilbert Islands, Hainan, Jawa, Lesser Sunda Islands, Malaya, Maluku, Mariana Islands, Marshall Islands, Nauru, New Guinea, Nicobar Islands, Philippines, Samoa, Solomon Islands, Sulawesi, Taiwan, Thailand, Tonga, Vanuatu, Vietnam, Wallis-Futuna Islands, and the Australian regions of Northern Territory, Queensland, and Western Australia. In the Pacific Islands, ''Aidia'' has commonly been reported as being '' Aidia cochinchinensis.'' However, Tirvengadum noted that the specimens from the Pacific islands were distinct from ''Aidia cochinchinensis'' in Vietnam and in 1988 proposed ''Aidia racemosa'' as a unique species in the Pacific. Fobserg noted a large diversity of phenotypes in the Pacific islands, and in 1993 retained the name ''Aidia coc ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Antonio José Cavanilles
Antonio José Cavanilles (16 January 1745 – 5 May 1804) was a leading Spanish taxonomic botanist of the 18th century. He named many plants, particularly from Oceania. He named at least 100 genera, about 54 of which were still used in 2004, including ''Dahlia'', '' Calycera'', ''Cobaea'', '' Galphimia'', and ''Oleandra''. Biography Cavanilles was born in Valencia. He lived in Paris from 1777 to 1781, where he followed careers as a clergyman and a botanist, thanks to André Thouin and Antoine Laurent de Jussieu. He was one of the first Spanish scientists to use the classification method invented by Carl Linnaeus. From Paris he moved to Madrid, where he was director of the Royal Botanical Garden and Professor of botany from 1801 to 1804. In 1804, Cavanilles was elected a member of the American Philosophical Society in Philadelphia. He died in Madrid in 1804.

Rubiaceae
The Rubiaceae are a family of flowering plants, commonly known as the coffee, madder, or bedstraw family. It consists of terrestrial trees, shrubs, lianas, or herbs that are recognizable by simple, opposite leaves with interpetiolar stipules and sympetalous actinomorphic flowers. The family contains about 13,500 species in about 620 genera, which makes it the fourth-largest angiosperm family. Rubiaceae has a cosmopolitan distribution; however, the largest species diversity is concentrated in the tropics and subtropics. Economically important genera include ''Coffea'', the source of coffee, '' Cinchona'', the source of the antimalarial alkaloid quinine, ornamental cultivars (''e.g.'', '' Gardenia'', ''Ixora'', ''Pentas''), and historically some dye plants (''e.g.'', ''Rubia''). Description The Rubiaceae are morphologically easily recognizable as a coherent group by a combination of characters: opposite or whorled leaves that are simple and entire, interpetiolar stipules, tubu ...
