Trioncinia Patens
''Trioncinia patens'' is a species of flowering plant in the family Asteraceae. It is endemic to Queensland. Description ''Trioncinia patens'' is a perennial plant that typically grows up to tall. It has a thick woody taproot and several stems arise from the caudex. The alternate leaves are mostly basal, and are up to 7 cm long; the petioles are up to 4 cm long; the lamina is pinnatifid, and is up to 3 cm long and 2 cm wide; the narrow leaf segments are 1 to 1.5 mm wide, and have a short, sharply pointed tip at the apex. The inflorescences are branched in the upper half of the plant, the peduncles are long, often with 1 or 2 bracts in the upper half. The capitula are 6 to 9 mm in diameter, and are radiate; the domed receptacle is 1.6 to 2.4 mm in diameter. The involucres are hemispheric, the phyllaries are in 2 or 3 series; the short, triangular outer phyllaries are 1-2 mm long, and 0.5 to 1 mm wide; the middle and inner phyllaries are ovate to oblong or obovate, ...

Coreopsideae
Coreopsideae is a tribe of flowering plants belonging to the Asteroideae subfamily. It includes widely cultivated genera such as ''Cosmos'' and ''Dahlia''. A similar group has been recognized since 1829, generally as part of the tribe Heliantheae ( Cassini, 1819). In the late 20th century, molecular studies caused a slightly redefined version of this group to be recognized as its own tribe, Coreopsideae. The larger version of Heliantheae was split into tribes including Bahieae, Chaenactideae, Coreopsideae, Helenieae and, finally, Heliantheae (''sensu stricto''). Within the tribe, the traditional definition of genera based on flower and fruit characters does not reflect evolutionary relationships as inferred through molecular phylogenetics. The tribe is characterized by shiny green bracts at the base of the flower head in two rows: an inner row of tightly spaced bracts and an outer row of a smaller number pointing downward. It includes five genera that use carbon fixation: '' Ch ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Genus
Genus ( plural genera ) is a taxonomic rank used in the biological classification of extant taxon, living and fossil organisms as well as Virus classification#ICTV classification, viruses. In the hierarchy of biological classification, genus comes above species and below family (taxonomy), family. In binomial nomenclature, the genus name forms the first part of the binomial species name for each species within the genus. :E.g. ''Panthera leo'' (lion) and ''Panthera onca'' (jaguar) are two species within the genus ''Panthera''. ''Panthera'' is a genus within the family Felidae. The composition of a genus is determined by taxonomy (biology), taxonomists. The standards for genus classification are not strictly codified, so different authorities often produce different classifications for genera. There are some general practices used, however, including the idea that a newly defined genus should fulfill these three criteria to be descriptively useful: # monophyly – all descendants ...

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 ...
