A New Species

Allium therinanthum, a new species of A. sect. Codonoprasum, is described and illustrated from southern Mt. Hermon (Israel). It is a late-flowering diploid species (2n = 16), growing on calcareous substrates of the mountain belt. It is a narrowly distributed geophyte, showing morphological relationships mainly with A. tardiflorum, a typical autumnal species also occurring in Israel within the pinewoods of Mt. Carmel. The morphology, karyology, leaf anatomy, ecology, conservation status and taxonomical relations are examined for both species. A taxonomic comparison with the most allied late flowering species of the sect. Codonoprasum is provided.

A New Species

Allium nazarenum, a new species of A. sect. Codonoprasum, is described and illustrated from Israel. Within this species, two well distinct subspecies have been recognized, represented by the subsp. nazarenum and subsp. ramonense respectively. The first one occurs in northern and central Israel, which falls within the Mediterranean bioclimate, while the second one is circumscribed to the Negev desert. Both taxa are diploid with 2n = 16 and are found on various substrata usually in the batha or steppic plant communities. This species shows close relationships with the species belonging to the A. staticiforme group, from which it differs in several relevant diacritic features. Its morphology, karyology, leaf anatomy, ecology, conservation status and taxonomical relationships are examined.

A revisional taxonomic study of Adesmia subg. Adesmia ser. Bicolores has unveiled a new species from southern Brazil. Adesmia miottoae is described and illustrated here. Its geographic distribution, phenology, conservation status and morphological similarities with its closest relatives, Adesmia punctata and A. incana, are presented. The species is distinguished by glandular trichomes covering all the aerial parts of the plant, except the corolla. These trichomes are shorter than those of Adesmia punctata. Additionally, a detailed anatomical description of the leaflet blade is provided.

Single Locality

Cyperus bampsii is described as a species new to science. It was collected in 1976 in a single locality near Belterra in Pará, Brazil. The species most likely belongs to section Haspani and, based on morphology and leaf anatomy, its closest relatives probably are C. haspan and C. tenuispica. The new species is described and copiously illustrated and its conservation status is assessed.

High Diversity

Croton is one of the largest genera of Angiosperms, with a pantropical distribution and a high diversity in South America, where 500 of its species occur. Croton sect. Adenophylli, its largest section, is characterized mainly by the fruit columella with three terminal ascending and inflated appendices and is distributed across the Neotropics, with the Cerrado as one of its centers of diversity. One of the binomials in the section, Croton grandivelus, has been applied to a broadly circumscribed entity that is here treated as including three species, C. grandivelus sensu stricto, C. fulvus and C. insignis, the latter described as a new species. We present a taxonomic treatment for these three species with descriptions, photographs, an illustration for the new species, an identification key, distribution maps, and commentary on the taxonomy, geographical distribution, environmental preferences, conservation status, flowering and fruiting times, morphological relationships and notes about the leaf anatomy and micromorphology of foliar trichomes. As part of this process, we propose 23 new synonyms and 15 lectotypifications.
