Abstract

Abstract To elucidate the taxonomic status of Ruppia drepanensis Tineo ex Guss. (Alismatales, Ruppiaceae), we performed morphological analysis and DNA barcoding of historical materials (including the lectotype) and fresh samples (including those from a recently discovered population near the locus classicus in Sicily, Italy). We conclude that R. drepanensis is a separate species, closely related to R. spiralis L. ex Dumort., that occurs in temporary inland waters from the western to central sectors of the Mediterranean region. We also highlight the importance of vouchers and the need to link molecular investigations to field, ecological, and morphological investigations.

地中海濒危湿地关键物种——芦柏科芦柏的特征研究

摘要阐明drepanensis Tineo ex Guss的分类地位。（Alismatales，Ruppiaceae），我们对历史材料（包括选择型）和新鲜样本（包括最近在意大利西西里岛古典基因座附近发现的种群）进行了形态学分析和DNA条形码。我们得出结论，drepanensis是一个独立的物种，与R.spirals L.ex Dumot.密切相关。，发生在地中海地区从西部到中部的临时内陆水域。我们还强调了凭证的重要性，以及将分子调查与实地、生态和形态调查联系起来的必要性。

期刊介绍： The Annals of the Missouri Botanical Garden is a quarterly international journal primarily devoted to systematic botany and evolutionary biology. We encourage submissions of original papers dealing with significant advances in the taxonomy, phylogeny, biogeography, paleobiology, and evolution of plants, and in conservation genetics and biology, restoration ecology, and ethnobiology, using morphological and/or molecular characters, field observations, and/or database information. We also welcome reviews and papers on conceptual issues and new methodologies in systematics. Important floristic works will also be considered. Symposium proceedings discussing a broader range of topical biological subjects are also published, typically once a year. All manuscripts are peer-reviewed by qualified and independent reviewers.
