Barlow","doi":"10.1071/BRU9830001","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1071/BRU9830001","url":null,"abstract":"Notothixos is a genus of eight species distributed from Ceylon, Lower Burma and the Philippines southwards and eastwards through the Malesian region to Santa Cruz Islands and south-eastern Australia. It is distinguished by a dense and conspicuous indumentum of dendritic, stellately branched or peltate hairs or scales, and by lateral stems subtended by two prophylls and two cataphylls. The basic inflorescence unit is a small cymose cluster subtended by a pair of small bracts, and conflorescence evolution has involved the aggregation of cymules, and development of indeterminate conflorescences from determinate ones. The entire genus has not been revised previously; four names are reduced to synonymy of others for the first time here. Notothixos curranii Merrill, N. merguiensis Danser and N. spicatus Krause are conspecific with N. floccosus (Thw.) Hook.f, and N. schlechteri Krause is conspecific with N. leiophyllus Schumann. New chromosome numbers are reported for two species: N. incanus (n= 13) and N. subaureus (n = 12). Evidence suggests that the genus originated in the Malesian region, and that it has reached Papuasia and Australia as part of an intrusive element following Miocene collision of the Australian and Sunda plates.","PeriodicalId":246712,"journal":{"name":"Brunonia","volume":"30 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122977607","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Characters used in the keys and descriptions are discussed and where necessary illustrated by scanning electron microscopy and light microscopy. Species are grouped into sections and a key is given to these categories. Section descriptions are listed in alphabetic order. Two keys for the species are given. The first is a standard morphological key and the second is based entirely on vegetative and anatomical characters. Species descriptions are listed in alphabetical order.

The indumentum is homogeneous with respect to cellular structure, the hairs being simple, unicellular and unbranched. Hairs of different lengths are produced, with shorter hairs possibly produced later than the longer ones. The shorter hairs tend to be bent or crisped. There is diversity in the degree of crisping of short hairs which appears to be genetically based and this attribute is of some value as a diagnostic character. Two apparent geographical subspecies of M. nervosa are distinguished by differences in crisping of the shorter hairs. However similarities with hair patterns in other species suggest polyphylesis, and raise questions of natural relationships between entities within the M. leucadendra complex.","PeriodicalId":246712,"journal":{"name":"Brunonia","volume":"23 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134095593","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
