Panaetia
''Panaetia'', a genus in the Asteraceae (daisy) family, was first described by Henri Cassini in 1829 It is considered by Plants of the World Online and the Global Compositae Database to be a synonym of ''Podolepis'' Labil,. while GBIF states it as "doubtful". However, in 2021, the Western Australian Herbarium accepted Jeffery Jeanes new circumscription of the genus, together with two species of ''Panaetia'' as being found in Western Australia: '' Panaetia lessonii'', and '' Panaetia tepperi''. Jeanes distinguished ''Panaetia'' from the genera, ''Podolepis'', ''Siemssenia'' and ''Walshia,'' using the following characters: # the outer florets are all tubular; and # the cypselas are minutely tuberculate and lack long finger-like papillae. The genus is named for the stoic philosopher, Panaetius of Rhodes Panaetius (; grc-gre, Παναίτιος, Panaítios; – ) of Rhodes was an ancient Greek Stoic philosopher.

Podolepis Lessonii
''Podolepis lessonii'' is an erect annual herb native to Western Australia, belonging to the Asteraceae family. Taxonomy The species was first described in 1829 as ''Panaetia lessonii'' by the French botanist, Henri Cassini. The species epithet, ''lessonii'', honours Monsieur Lesson who collected a specimen from King George Sound in 1826. The species was assigned to the genus, ''Podolepis'', in 1867 by George Bentham. The name currently accepted by the Western Australian Herbarium is ''Panaetia lessonii'' Cass., because of the studies of Jeffrey Jeanes, who distinguished '' Panaetia'' from the genera, ''Podolepis'', ''Siemssenia'' and ''Walshia,'' using the following characters: # the outer florets are all tubular; and # the cypselas are minutely tuberculate and lack long finger-like papillae. Distribution and habitat It is found widely in Beard's South-West and Eremaean provinces, in many different habitats and soils. References External links''Podolepis lessonii'' occur ...

Henri Cassini
Count Alexandre Henri Gabriel de Cassini (9 May 1781 – 23 April 1832) was a French botanist and natural history, naturalist, who specialised in the sunflower family (Asteraceae) (then known as family Compositae). He was the youngest of five children of Dominique, comte de Cassini, Jacques Dominique, Comte de Cassini, famous for completing the French cartography#Cassini_maps, map of France, who had succeeded his father as the director of the Paris Observatory. He was also the great-great-grandson of famous Italian-French astronomer, Giovanni Domenico Cassini, discoverer of Jupiter's Great Red Spot and the Cassini division in Saturn's rings. The genus ''Cassinia'' was named in his honour by the botanist Robert Brown (Scottish botanist from Montrose), Robert Brown. He named many flowering plants and new genera in the sunflower family (Asteraceae), many of them from North America. He published 65 papers and 11 reviews in the ''[Nouveau] Bulletin des Sciences'' of the Philomatic s ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Asteraceae
The family Asteraceae, alternatively Compositae, consists of over 32,000 known species of flowering plants in over 1,900 genera within the order Asterales. Commonly referred to as the aster, daisy, composite, or sunflower family, Compositae were first described in the year 1740. The number of species in Asteraceae is rivaled only by the Orchidaceae, and which is the larger family is unclear as the quantity of extant species in each family is unknown. Most species of Asteraceae are annual, biennial, or perennial herbaceous plants, but there are also shrubs, vines, and trees. The family has a widespread distribution, from subpolar to tropical regions in a wide variety of habitats. Most occur in hot desert and cold or hot semi-desert climates, and they are found on every continent but Antarctica. The primary common characteristic is the existence of sometimes hundreds of tiny individual florets which are held together by protective involucres in flower heads, or more technicall ...

Plants Of The World Online
Plants of the World Online (POWO) is an online database published by the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew. It was launched in March 2017 with the ultimate aim being "to enable users to access information on all the world's known seed-bearing plants by 2020". The initial focus was on tropical African Floras, particularly Flora Zambesiaca, Flora of West Tropical Africa and Flora of Tropical East Africa. The database uses the same taxonomical source as Kew's World Checklist of Selected Plant Families, which is the International Plant Names Index, and the World Checklist of Vascular Plants (WCVP). POWO contains 1,234,000 global plant names and 367,600 images. See also *Australian Plant Name Index *Convention on Biological Diversity *World Flora Online *Tropicos Tropicos is an online botanical database containing taxonomic information on plants, mainly from the Neotropical realm (Central, and South America). It is maintained by the Missouri Botanical Garden and was established over 25 y ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Global Biodiversity Information Facility
The Global Biodiversity Information Facility (GBIF) is an international organisation that focuses on making scientific data on biodiversity available via the Internet using web services. The data are provided by many institutions from around the world; GBIF's information architecture makes these data accessible and searchable through a single portal. Data available through the GBIF portal are primarily distribution data on plants, animals, fungi, and microbes for the world, and scientific names data. The mission of the GBIF is to facilitate free and open access to biodiversity data worldwide to underpin sustainable development. Priorities, with an emphasis on promoting participation and working through partners, include mobilising biodiversity data, developing protocols and standards to ensure scientific integrity and interoperability, building an informatics architecture to allow the interlinking of diverse data types from disparate sources, promoting capacity building and cat ...

Panaetius
Panaetius (; grc-gre, Παναίτιος, Panaítios; – ) of Rhodes was an Ancient Greece, ancient Greek Stoicism, Stoic philosopher. He was a pupil of Diogenes of Babylon and Antipater of Tarsus in Athens, before moving to Rome where he did much to introduce Stoic doctrines to the city, thanks to the patronage of Scipio Aemilianus. After the death of Scipio in 129 BC, he returned to the Stoic school in Athens, and was its last undisputed scholarch. With Panaetius, Stoicism became much more eclectic. His most famous work was his ''On Duties'', the principal source used by Cicero in De Officiis, his own work of the same name. Life Panaetius, son of Nicagoras, was born around 185–180 BC, into an old and eminent Rhodian family. He is said to have been a pupil of the linguist Crates of Mallus, who taught in Pergamum, and moved to Athens where he attended the lectures of Critolaus and Carneades, but attached himself principally to the Stoic Diogenes of Babylon and his disciple Ant ...
