Hippophae × Goniocarpa
''Hippophae'' × ''goniocarpa'' is a natural hybrid of the plant species ''H. neurocarpa'' and ''H. sinensis'', belonging to the family Elaeagnaceae, previously thought to be subspecies called ''H. goniocarpa'' subp. ''litangensis''. The Latin specific epithet In Taxonomy (biology), taxonomy, binomial nomenclature ("two-term naming system"), also called binary nomenclature, is a formal system of naming species of living things by giving each a name composed of two parts, both of which use Latin gramm ... ''goniocarpa'' refers to goniocarpus -a -um with angular fruits.D. Gledhill Also used by '' Eucalyptus goniocarpa'', '' Iris goniocarpa'' and '' Psychotria goniocarpa''. Description ''Hippophae'' × ''goniocarpa'' grows in mountainous regions in Nepal, Mongolia and China on mountain slopes, river banks, flood lands and valley terraces. The growth altitude is typically between . It is distinguished by the young branchlets and the lower surface of leaves. References {{DEF ...

Family (biology)
Family (, : ) is one of the eight major hierarchical taxonomic ranks in Linnaean taxonomy. It is classified between order and genus. A family may be divided into subfamilies, which are intermediate ranks between the ranks of family and genus. The official family names are Latin in origin; however, popular names are often used: for example, walnut trees and hickory trees belong to the family Juglandaceae, but that family is commonly referred to as the "walnut family". The delineation of what constitutes a family—or whether a described family should be acknowledged—is established and decided upon by active taxonomists. There are not strict regulations for outlining or acknowledging a family, yet in the realm of plants, these classifications often rely on both the vegetative and reproductive characteristics of plant species. Taxonomists frequently hold varying perspectives on these descriptions, leading to a lack of widespread consensus within the scientific community ...

Botanical Name
A botanical name is a formal scientific name conforming to the ''International Code of Nomenclature for algae, fungi, and plants'' (ICN) and, if it concerns a plant cultigen, the additional cultivar or cultivar group, Group epithets must conform to the ''International Code of Nomenclature for Cultivated Plants'' (ICNCP). The code of nomenclature covers "all organisms traditionally treated as algae, Fungus, fungi, or plants, whether fossil or non-fossil, including blue-green algae (Cyanobacteria), Chytridiomycota, chytrids, oomycetes, slime moulds and Photosynthesis, photosynthetic protists with their taxonomically related non-photosynthetic groups (but excluding Microsporidia)." The purpose of a formal name is to have a single name that is accepted and used worldwide for a particular plant or plant group. For example, the botanical name ''Bellis perennis'' denotes a plant species which is native to most of the countries of Europe and the Middle East, where it has accumulated variou ...

Eucalyptus Goniocarpa
''Eucalyptus goniocarpa'' is a species of Mallet (habit), mallet that is Endemism, endemic to southern Western Australia. It has smooth bark, glossy bluish adult leaves, flower buds in groups of three, creamy-white flowers, and ribbed, conical to barrel-shaped fruit. Description ''Eucalyptus goniocarpa'' is a mallet, often with a short trunk, that typically grows to a height of , or sometimes a multi-stemmed Mallee (habit), mallee to , but does not form a lignotuber. It has smooth, grey to brown bark. Young plants and coppice regrowth have lance-shaped, Petiole (botany), petiolate leaves that are long and wide. Adult leaves are lance-shaped, glossy bluish, long and wide on a petiole up to long. The flower buds are arranged in groups of three, sometimes seven, in leaf wikt:axil, axils, on a flattened, unbranched Peduncle (botany), peduncle long, the individual buds on Pedicel (botany), pedicels long. Mature buds are elongated oval to spindle-shaped, long and wide with two ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
