Iostephane
''Iostephane'' is a genus of Mexican flowering plants in the family Asteraceae. They were first published in G.Bentham & J.D.Hooker, Genera Plantarum Vol.2 on page 368 in 1873. The species are rosette-forming herbaceous perennials that produce relatively large heads with yellow or purple (''I. heterophylla'') rays. They have large, somewhat quadrate cypselae ( achenes), that may either have or lack a pappus. Molecular phylogenetic studies by Schilling in 1991, suggested that there is an unexpectedly close relationship between ''Iostephane'' and ''Dendroviguiera'' (formerly ''Viguiera'' sect. ''Maculatae''), a genus of shrubs and trees that is also endemic to Mexico.Schilling, E, E. and J. L. Panero 2011. A revised classification of subtribe Helianthinae (Asteraceae: Heliantheae). II.

Dendroviguiera
''Dendroviguiera'' is a genus of flowering plants in the sunflower family. Its native range stretches from Mexico into Central America. Formerly part of the ''Viguiera'' genus, until a DNA study in 2011 separated out all the shrub/tree species of the ''Viguiera'' genus. Description Dendroviguiera species generally are shrubs and trees with phyllaries (modified leaves) with oblong, indurated (hardened) bases and short, triangular herbaceous apices (leaf-tips). The pappus (flowerhead) has awns (hair r bristle-like appendages) which are usually broad, greater than mm across. The abaxial (underneath) leaf surfaces usually not densely pubescent (downy; covered with short, soft hairs). Taxonomy Originally the (woody) species of ''Viguiera'' were placed in ''Viguiera ser. Maculatae'' in 1918. Molecular phylogenetic studies by Schilling in 1991, suggested that there is an unexpectedly close relationship between '' Iostephane'' (genus of Mexican flowering plants in the family A ...

Heliantheae
The Heliantheae (sometimes called the sunflower tribe) are the third-largest tribe in the sunflower family (Asteraceae). With some 190 genera and nearly 2500 recognized species, only the tribes Senecioneae and Astereae are larger. The name is derived from the genus ''Helianthus'', which is Greek for sun flower. Most genera and species are found in North America (particularly in Mexico) and South America. A few genera are pantropical. Most Heliantheae are herbs or shrubs, but some grow to the size of small trees. Leaves are usually hairy and arranged in opposite pairs. The anthers are usually blackened. The above statements about the size and distribution of the tribe apply to a broad definition of Heliantheae, which was followed throughout the 20th century. Some recent authors break the tribe up into a dozen or so smaller tribes. Uses Commercially important plants in the Heliantheae include sunflower and Jerusalem artichoke. Many garden flowers are also in this group, such a ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Benth
George Bentham (22 September 1800 – 10 September 1884) was an English botanist, described by the weed botanist Duane Isely as "the premier systematic botanist of the nineteenth century". Born into a distinguished family, he initially studied law, but had a fascination with botany from an early age, which he soon pursued, becoming president of the Linnaean Society in 1861, and a fellow of the Royal Society in 1862. He was the author of a number of important botanical works, particularly flora. He is best known for his taxonomic classification of plants in collaboration with Joseph Dalton Hooker, his ''Genera Plantarum'' (1862–1883). He died in London in 1884. Life Bentham was born in Stoke, Plymouth, on 22 September 1800.Jean-Jacques Amigo, « Bentham (George) », in Nouveau Dictionnaire de biographies roussillonnaises, vol. 3 Sciences de la Vie et de la Terre, Perpignan, Publications de l'olivier, 2017, 915 p.

Endemic Flora Of Mexico
Endemism is the state of a species being found in a single defined geographic location, such as an island, state, nation, country or other defined zone; organisms that are indigenous to a place are not endemic to it if they are also found elsewhere. For example, the Cape sugarbird is found exclusively in southwestern South Africa and is therefore said to be ''endemic'' to that particular part of the world. An endemic species can be also be referred to as an ''endemism'' or in scientific literature as an ''endemite''. For example '' Cytisus aeolicus'' is an endemite of the Italian flora. '' Adzharia renschi'' was once believed to be an endemite of the Caucasus, but it was later discovered to be a non-indigenous species from South America belonging to a different genus. The extreme opposite of an endemic species is one with a cosmopolitan distribution, having a global or widespread range. A rare alternative term for a species that is endemic is "precinctive", which applies to ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
México State
The State of Mexico ( es, Estado de México; ), officially just Mexico ( es, México), is one of the 32 federal entities of the United Mexican States.
