Diphasiastrum × Issleri
''Diphasiastrum'' × ''issleri'', known as Issler's clubmoss, is a hybrid species of clubmoss known from northern Europe and a few historical collections in northern Maine. Taxonomy ''Diphasiastrum'' × ''issleri'' is a hybrid between '' D. alpinum'' and '' D. complanatum''. Originally placed in a broadly circumscribed '' Lycopodium'' as a race of ''L. alpinum'', it was transferred to the segregate genus '' Diphasiastrum'' and raised to species level by Holub in 1975. In the past, it has been treated as a subspecies of ''D. complanatum''. American material was once believed to be a hybrid between ''D. alpinum'' and '' D. tristachyum'', but the offspring of those parents is properly known as ''D.'' × ''oellgaardii'', which has not yet been found in North America.

Georges Rouy
Georges Rouy (2 December 1851, Paris – 25 December 1924, Asnières-sur-Seine) was a French botanist who was among the first to identify infraspecific (i.e., below the level of species) taxa, including: subspecies, varieties, and forms. Published works With Julien Foucaud and others, he was author of the ''Flore de France; ou, Description des plantes qui croissent spontanément en France, en Corse et en Alsace-Lorraine'' (Flora of France; descriptions of plants that are native to France, Corsica and Alsace-Lorraine, published in 14 volumes from 1893 to 1913.

Josef Ludwig Holub
The Professor Josef Ludwig Holub (5 February 1930 in Mladá Boleslav, (now Czech Republic) – 23 July 1999) was a Czech botanist who described a number of new species, worked on systematic reorganization of botanical groups, and contributed greatly to the study of European flora. Biography Josef Holub studied at Charles University in Prague, becoming a lecturer in botany in 1953. He co-founded the Czech Institute of Botany where he worked for many years.

Chass
Chaas ( gu:છાશ ''chhash'', hi:छाछ ''chhachh'') is a curd-based drink popular across the Indian subcontinent. In Rajasthani it is called ''ghol,'' in Odia it is called ''Ghol/Chaash,'' ''moru'' in Tamil and Malayalam, ''taak'' in Marathi, ''majjiga'' in Telugu, ''majjige'' in Kannada, ''ale'' (pronounced a-lay) in Tulu and ''ghol'' in Bengali. In Indian English, it is often referred to as buttermilk. Etymology The name ''Chaas'' or ''Chaach'' is derived from Sanskrit word ''Chacchika'' (छच्छिका), meaning churned yogurt from which butter has been removed. Preparation and variations Chaas is made by churning yogurt (curds/dahi) and cold water together in a pot, using a hand-held instrument called ''madhani'' (whipper). This can be consumed plain or seasoned with a variety of spices or made sweet (and then known as ''Meethi Chaas''). Chaas can be made from fresh yogurt, and the natural flavour of such chaas is mildly sweet. Seasoning and flavours Chaas ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Diphasiastrum Alpinum
''Diphasiastrum alpinum'', the alpine clubmoss, is a species of clubmoss. It was first described by Carl Linnaeus in his Flora Lapponica, 1737, from specimens obtained in Finland. Distribution It has a circumpolar distribution across much of the northern parts of the Northern Hemisphere: much of Canada, the northwestern United States, northern and central Europe, Russia, China and Japan. It is an indicator of alpine tundra and boreal climates.Williams, Tara Y. 1990''Lycopodium alpinum'' In: Fire Effects Information System, nline U.S. Department of Agriculture, Forest Service, Rocky Mountain Research Station, Fire Sciences Laboratory. It is found in mountains and moors often with ''Calluna'' and grasses. Description ''Diphasiastrum alpinum'' grows tall from stems which grow just under the surface of the ground. The leaves are hollow at the bases. The female stems produce strobili up to long. [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Diphasiastrum Complanatum
''Diphasiastrum complanatum'', common names groundcedar, creeping jenny, or northern running-pine, is a species of clubmoss native to dry coniferous forests in colder northerly parts of the world. Under the original name ''Lycopodium complanatum'', this was an inclusive superspecies that included a number of other species now known to be biologically separate. Distribution As the species is currently recognized, it has been found in Canada, Greenland, northern and central Europe including montane regions of the British Isles, Russia, China, Japan, India, Thailand, and the northern United States. Description ''Diphasiastrum complanatum'' is a perennial herb spreading by means of stolons that run along the surface of the ground. Above-ground stems tend to branch within the same geometric plane (hence the specific epithet "''complanatum''," meaning "same plane"). Strobili A strobilus (plural: strobili) is a structure present on many land plant species consisting of sporangia-bear ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Lycopodium
''Lycopodium'' (from Greek ''lykos'', wolf and ''podion'', diminutive of ''pous'', foot) is a genus of clubmosses, also known as ground pines or creeping cedars, in the family Lycopodiaceae. Two very different circumscriptions of the genus are in use. In the Pteridophyte Phylogeny Group classification of 2016 (PPG I), ''Lycopodium'' is one of nine genera in the subfamily Lycopodioideae, and has from nine to 15 species. In other classifications, the genus is equivalent to the whole of the subfamily, since it includes all of the other genera. More than 40 species are accepted. Description They are flowerless, vascular, terrestrial or epiphytic plants, with widely branched, erect, prostrate, or creeping stems, with small, simple, needle-like or scale-like leaves that cover the stem and branches thickly. The leaves contain a single, unbranched vascular strand, and are microphylls by definition. The kidney-shaped (reniform) spore-cases (sporangia) contain spores of one kind only, ( i ...

Diphasiastrum
''Diphasiastrum'' is a genus of clubmosses in the plant family Lycopodiaceae. In the Pteridophyte Phylogeny Group classification of 2016 (PPG I), it is placed in the subfamily Lycopodioideae. It is closely related to the genus ''Lycopodium'', and some botanists treat it within a broad view of that genus as a section, ''Lycopodium'' sect. ''Complanata''. Some species superficially resemble diminutive gymnosperms and have been given common names such as ground-pine or ground-cedar. There are 16 species, and numerous natural hybrids in the genus; many of the hybrids are fertile, allowing their occurrence to become frequent, sometimes more so than the parent species. The basal chromosome count for this genus is ''n=23'', which is distinctively different from other lycopods. Several species have been used economically for their spores, which are harvested as Lycopodium powder. Species , the ''Checklist of Ferns and Lycophytes of the World'' recognized the following species: *' ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Diphasiastrum Tristachyum
''Diphasiastrum tristachyum'', commonly known as blue clubmoss, blue ground-cedar, ground pine, deep-rooted running-pine or ground cedar, is a North American and Eurasian species of clubmoss. In North America, it has been found from Newfoundland west to Manitoba, and south as far as Georgia and Alabama. In Eurasia, it ranges from southern Norway and Sweden south to France and Italy and it also occurs in the Caucasus. The name tristachyum means three branched. Description ''Diphasiastrum tristachyum'' is a perennial species of clubmoss. It grows from creeping underground stems which are often deeply buried at 5–12 cm deep; at nodes from this stem the above ground stems emerge. The upright stems can be tall or higher. From the main stem, several fan shaped "leaves" emerge, these are not true leaves but rather branched stems which appear to almost look like leaves, each branches 4-6 times. The stems all grow to a similar height at the top of the plant, giving it a flat topp ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
