Two temnospondyl amphibian specimens from the Middle Pennsylvanian locality of Linton, Ohio, USA are described as Adatnanterpeton ohioensis gen. et sp. nov. , a member of the family Cochleosauridae and sister-taxon to the clade comprising the genera Cochleosaurus+Chenoprosopus. A. ohioensis is a very rare component in the large Linton vertebrate assemblage and may have been a relatively terrestrial form, perhaps similar to Cochleosaurus florensis from the contemporaneous lycopsid-trunk locality at Florence, Nova Scotia. An overview of the edopoid and eryopoid adaptive radiations is presented and it is argued that they were sequential radiations, each of monophyletic origin filling the same range of niches. 相似文献

A new species of the section Spartopsis Dumort. of the genus Cytisus Desf. (Fabaceae) is described. The new species, Cytisus insularis , is restricted to the western islands of Galicia (north-west Iberian Peninsula), where it principally colonizes cliffs. A possible recent hybrid origin for these populations is considered but rejected in view of the results of experimental tests of pollen viability and seed germination. Characters permitting discrimination from the most similar taxa are detailed, and possible relationships with the other species of the section are discussed. 相似文献

Bony fishes of the morphologically diverse infraclass Teleostei include more than 31 000 species, encompassing almost one‐half of all extant vertebrates. A remarkable anatomical complex in teleosts is the adductor mandibulae, the primary muscle in mouth closure and whose subdivisions vary in number and complexity. Difficulties in recognizing homologies amongst adductor mandibulae subdivisions across the Teleostei have hampered the understanding of the evolution of this system and consequently its application in phylogenetic analyses. The adductor mandibulae in representatives of all lower teleost orders is described, illustrated, and compared based on broad taxonomic sampling complemented by extensive literature information. Muscle division homologies are clarified via the application of a standardized homology‐driven anatomical terminology with synonymies provided to the myological terminologies of previous studies. Phylogenetic implications of the observed variations in the adductor mandibulae are discussed and new possible synapomorphies are proposed for the Notacanthiformes, Ostariophysi, Cypriniformes, Siluriphysi, Gymnotiformes, and Alepocephaloidei. New characters corroborate the putative monophyly of the clades Albuliformes plus Notacanthiformes (Elopomorpha), Argentinoidei plus Esocoidei plus Salmonoidei (Protacanthopterygii) and Hemiodontidae plus Parodontidae (Characiformes). We further confirm the validity of characters from the adductor mandibulae previously proposed to support the monophyly of the Esocoidei and the gonorynchiform clade Gonorynchoidei plus Knerioidei. © 2014 The Linnean Society of London 相似文献

We used a data matrix of 65 morphological characters from 25 ingroup and 6 outgroup taxa, and an alignment comprising complete 18S rDNA sequences from 82 species of parasitic and free-living Platyhelminthes and from 19 species of lower invertebrates to analyse phylogenetic relationships of various platyhelminth taxa. Of the 1358 unambiguously alignablc molecular positions, 995 were variable and 757 were phylogenctically informative (parsimony criterion); complete 18S rDNA sequences ranged in length from 1755 to 2873 bp. Main conclusions are: Ncodermata are monophylctic, and the Trematoda, Monogenca and Cestoda within them are monophylctic as well. The sister group of the Ncodermata is all the other Ncoophora; the Kalyptorhynchia, Typhloplanida, Dalyelliida and Tcmnocephalida form one clade, and the last three another. Monophyly of the Seriata is rejected, but Polycladida/ Macrostomida/Haplopharyngida are monophylctic, as arc the last two taxa. As a consequence, validity of the taxon Trepaxonemata is rejected. Further studies must show the correct position of the Acocla and Nemertodermatida. It is stressed that morphological and molecular data in some respects lead to contradictory results, for instance concerning the position of the Fecampiidac/ Urastoma/Ichthyophaga and the relative position of the Lccithoepitheliata. Denser sampling of taxa for molecular data, complementary sequences from independent genes, and inclusion of additional morphological data are necessary to resolve these contradictions. 相似文献

Primula allionii is endemic to a tiny area of the Maritime Alps and has one of the narrowest distribution ranges in this hotspot of biodiversity. Phylogeographical patterns in P. allionii were studied using plastid DNA markers and dominantly inherited markers (AFLP and ISSR) to verify any admixture between P. allionii and the sympatric P. marginata and to detect the phylogeographical history of the species. Morphometric measurements of flowers and admixture analysis support the hypothesis that hybridization occurs in nature. Species distribution models using two climate models (CCSM and MIROC) suggested a reduction in habitat suitability during cold periods. Phylogeographical analysis suggested an old allopatric divergence during the mid‐Pleistocene transition (about 0.8 Mya) without recolonization/contraction cycles. The Alps watershed does not act as a strong barrier between the two main areas of the distribution range, and moderate gene flow by pollen seems to create the admixture recorded among the stands. According to our results, the persistence of P. allionii throughout the Ice Age appears to be linked to the capacity of the Maritime Alps to provide a wide diversity of microhabitats consistent with the recent biogeographical pattern proposed for the Mediterranean Basin. © 2013 The Linnean Society of London, Botanical Journal of the Linnean Society, 2013, 173 , 637–653. 相似文献

Four life forms (habits) are identified in the 13 species of Moringa (bottle trees, sarcorhizal trees, slender trees, and tuberous shrubs) which are examined for wood anatomical correlations with habit, ecology, and systematic. Wood anatomy is similar within habit classes except for the sarcorhizal trees. The four bottle tree species and M. arborea (one of the sarcorhizal trees) are characterized by bands of confluent paratracheal parenchyma alternating with bands of libriform fibres, some of which may be parenchyma-like. The other sarcorhizal tree, M. ruspoliana , is characterized by alternating bands of parenchyma-like and long, slender libriform fibres. Root secondary xylem of all these species is characterized by bands of parenchyma and fibres. Slender trees do not show bands of fibres of different shapes and have fibrous roots with less parenchyma than the other species. Tuberous shrubs have stems mostly composed of long, slender fibres and large underground tubers mostly composed of parenchyma. Quantitative trends between ecologically different localities include wider vessel elements and higher conductive area in moister localities. Wood anatomy provides characters that are of potential phylogenetic utility at a variety of levels of relationship. Based on wood anatomy and geography, the most likely sister taxon to Moringa is Cylicomorpha (Caricaceae). 相似文献

The genus Cymbidium (Orchidaceae) exhibits distinctive ecological diversification and occurs in terrestrial, epiphytic, and lithophytic life forms. One species, Cymbidium macrorhizon , lacks foliage leaves and has a strongly mycoparasitic existence. Correlation between habitat differentiation and anatomical characters was tested for 21 species of Cymbidium and its putative sister groups. Although hypostomaty characterizes the genus, C. canaliculatum shows amphistomaty. Ecological preference of this species indicates that amphistomaty is likely adapted to intensive insolation. Four types of subepidermal foliar sclerenchyma were found. Two forest floor species, C. goeringii and C. lancifolium as well as the mycoparasitic C. macrorhizon , do not have this sclerenchyma. In this genus, development of sclerenchyma is correlated with the degree of epiphytism. Palisade mesophyll evolved in Cymbidium section Cymbidium . As members of this section grow on isolated trees in tropical lowland forests or on rocks, the differentiation of palisade tissue is probably correlated with immigration to high light habitats. With the exception of C. macrorhizon , stegmata were found in leaves and stems of Cymbidium . Furthermore, a few epiphytic species have stegmata in their roots; this is a curious feature rarely found in vascular plants. Subterranean rhizomes characterize terrestrial species, while ageotropic roots are found in some epiphytic species. Cymbidium macrorhizon shows peculiar features such as degeneration of stomata, anomocytic stomata, and lack of stegmata and sclerenchyma. This set of character transformations is probably correlated with the evolution of mycoparasitic existence. © 2002 The Linnean Society of London, Botanical Journal of the Linnean Society , 2002, 138 , 383–419. 相似文献

A comparative study of the secondary xylem (wood) anatomy of 11 species (38 specimens) occurring in cerrado s.s. and the adjacent gallery forest (both cerrado s.l. habitat) was made with the aim of identifying the anatomical characteristics of ecological value and correlating them with the environmental conditions. The anatomical features that vary, in general, between the two habitats are: growth ring distinctness (well or poorly defined); tyloses and deposits (more abundant in cerrado specimens); gelatinous fibres (more evident in cerrado specimens and in different patterns between habitats); variation in paratracheal and banded parenchyma (more abundant in cerrado); and more cells per parenchyma strand in cerrado. In general, gallery forest specimens have wider vessels, fewer vessels per square millimetre and larger intervessel pits, indicating more efficient water conduction, whereas cerrado s.s. specimens are the opposite, with low vulnerability and mesomorphy indices, demonstrating greater safety under conditions of water stress. © 2012 The Linnean Society of London, Botanical Journal of the Linnean Society, 2012, ?? , ??–??. 相似文献
