Silversword Alliance
The silversword alliance, also known as the tarweeds, refers to an adaptive radiation of around 30 species in the composite or sunflower family, Asteraceae. The group is endemic to Hawaii, and is derived from a single immigrant to the islands. For radiating from a common ancestor at an estimated 5.2±0.8 Ma, the clade is extremely diverse, composed of trees, shrubs, subshrubs, mat-plants, cushion plants, rosette plants, and lianas. The silversword alliance is named for its most famous and visually striking members, the silverswords. The species of the clade break down into three genera: ''Wilkesia, Argyroxiphium,'' and ''Dubautia.'' There are three species of silverswords and two greenswords in the genus ''Argyroxiphium'', confined to the islands of Maui and Hawaii, and two species of ''Wilkesia'' (''iliau'') on Kauai. The bulk of the species are placed in the genus ''Dubautia'', which is widespread on all the main islands. The genus ''Dubautia'' contains a wide variety of form ...

Argyroxiphium
''Argyroxiphium'' is a small genus of plants in the family Asteraceae. Its members are known by the common names silversword or greensword due to their long, narrow leaves and the silvery hairs on some species. The silverswords belong to a larger Adaptive radiation, radiation of over 50 species, including the physically different genera ''Dubautia'' and ''Wilkesia''. This grouping is often referred to as the silversword alliance.[B. Baldwin. Age and Rate of Diversification of the Hawaiian Silversword Alliance (Compositae). 1998.] Botanist P. H. Raven referred to this radiation as "the best example of adaptive radiation in plants". Description Species in ''Argyroxiphium'' are Perennial plant, perennial, Rosette (botany), rosette-forming shrubs. They may consist of a single large rosette or a collection of several rosettes. In all ''Argyroxiphium'' species, long, narrow leaves contain interstitial gels hypothesized to function as water storage. For some species, leaves are cove ...

Blepharipappus
''Blepharipappus'' is a North American plant genus in the family Asteraceae containing the single known species ''Blepharipappus scaber'', known by the common name rough eyelash, or rough eyelashweed. ''Blepharis'' is Greek for 'eyelash' and ' pappus' refers to the feathery part of the plant's seeds. ''Blepharipappus scaber'' is a small, inconspicuous, annual plant herb to the northwestern United States (Washington, Idaho, Oregon, Nevada, and northern California). It grows in sandy soil in forests at elevations of 300–2200 meters (1000–7300 feet) and in the western portion of the sagebrush steppe. Growing up to several inches in height, the plant raises slender, fuzzy stems, with alternate leaves. Atop the stems bloom between one and several daisylike flower heads. These have 3–8 three-lobed ray florets, which are white with purple markings, while the center of the head is packed with about 10 white disc florets with purple anthers. The fruit is a dark achene which often b ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
