“…Several new species have been described recently (e.g. Niketić and Stevanović 2007;Schönswetter and Schneeweiss 2009;Surina et al 2009;Shuka et al 2010Shuka et al , 2012Meyer 2011;Lakušić et al 2013;Bogdanović et al 2014) and disjunct localities of rare species have been discovered (Biel and Tan 2010;Barina et al 2013;Frajman et al 2013Frajman et al , 2014. A few phylogenetic studies accompanied with dating analyses have shown that many Balkan endemics originated in the Tertiary (e.g.…”

How many taxa? Spatiotemporal evolution and taxonomy of Amphoricarpos (Asteraceae, Carduoideae) on the Balkan Peninsula

Amphoricarpos Vis. is an early diverging genus within tribe Cardueae (Carduoideae, Asteraceae), which is disjunctly distributed in the Balkan Peninsula, Anatolia and the Caucasus; the Anatolian and Caucasian taxa are sometimes treated as separate genus Alboviodoxa. We focus on the monophyletic Balkan populations, which have been treated very inconsistently in previous taxonomic accounts (one polymorphic species with or without varying sets of intraspecific taxa vs. two species, one of them with two subspecies). In order to disentangle relationships among populations across the entire distribution area of Amphoricarpos on the Balkan Peninsula, we employed amplified fragment length polymorphisms (AFLPs) as well as nuclear and plastid DNA sequences (ITS and rps16-trnK) to a dense sampling of populations. ITS was also used to reconstruct the genus' spatiotemporal evolution. In addition, we contrasted the genetic results with morphological data to provide a sound taxonomic revision of Amphoricarpos on the Balkan Peninsula. The split between the Balkan populations and the Anatolian A. exsul took place in the late Miocene or early Pliocene, whereas diversification within the Balkan lineage is much younger and likely started in the Pleistocene. The deepest splits seen in AFLPs and/or ITS separate the geographically disjunct northern-and southern-most populations. Divergence within the continuous distribution area in the centre is shallower, but allowed recognition of three largely allopatric clusters. Morphometric data, however, were neither in line with previous multi-taxon treatments nor with patterns of genetic divergence. We therefore refrain from recognising any of the genetic groups as a distinct taxonomic entity and rather suggest treating all Balkan populations as a single, genetically, morphologically and ecologi cally variable species, Amphoricarpos neumayerianus (Vis.) Greuter, without intraspecific taxa.

“…Several new species have been described from the Balkans in the last decade (see Frajman et al 2014 for a review), and several new localities of rare or overlooked species have been discovered (e.g. Frajman and Schönswetter 2008;Mullaj et al 2010;Frajman and Bačič 2011;Milanović et al 2011;Barina et al 2011Barina et al , 2013Frajman et al 2013;Frajman et al 2014).

Diversification of Luzula sect. Luzula (Juncaceae) on the Balkan Peninsula – a cytogenetic approach

2016

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Luzula sect. Luzula is one of the taxonomically most intricate groups of angiosperms, where diversification is mostly driven by true polyploidy and agmatoploidy (fission of chromosomes) leading to three different karyotypes (whole chromosomes -AL, halfsized chromosomes -BL and quarter-sized chromosomes -CL). Morphologically, the taxa are often difficult to distinguish, and genome size data coupled with karyological investigations are currently the most reliable means for their identification. For the Balkan Peninsula, one of the botanically least studied areas of Europe, ten taxa from this section have been reported, but little is known about their distribution. We here estimated the nuclear DNA amount (genome size, GS) using interphase-peak DNA image cytometry and counted the chromosomes for 33 populations of five species of Luzula sect. Luzula mostly from mountainous areas of the Balkan Peninsula and the adjacent southeastern Alps. Five taxa have been confirmed, of which L. divulgatiformis is new for Croatia and L. exspectata for Macedonia and Serbia. The most common species in the Dinaric mountains appears to be diploid (2n = 12 AL) L. taurica, for which the GS (2C = 0.83 pg DNA, fitting well in the range of previously determined values of diploid taxa) has been determined for the first time. The GS and karyotypes of other taxa (L. campestris, L. divulgatiformis, L. exspectata, L. multiflora subsp. multiflora) correspond well to previously published values. An identification key for the Balkan taxa of Luzula sect. Luzula is also included.

“…Between 2004 and 2013 ca 100 populations of the genus were studied in Albania , Barina et al 2009, 2013; their vouchers are deposited in BP. Revisions of the Chamaecytisus material, including type specimens, have been made using specimens from the following herbaria (abbreviations follow Thiers 2008+): BP, BEO, BEOU, KRA, KRAM, KW, PR, PRC, SO, SOM, W, WU and the collection of University of Tirana (Tirana, Albania; abbreviated here as TIR); additionally, we consulted with the digital collections of the following herbaria: B-W, FR, GOET, HAL, P.

: Two new Chamaecytisus species (Leguminosae-Papilionoideae) from Albania, with an overview on the Ch. ratisbonensis and Ch. eriocarpus species groups. -Studia bot. hung. 47(1): 163-178. Abstract:Two new species, Chamaecytisus korabensis and Ch. pseudojankae, both from Albania, are described and illustrated here. Th e relationship of the new taxa to Ch. ratisbonensis and Ch. eriocarpus agg. is discussed. Ch. korabensis is an endemic species of eastern Albania and related to the Eastern European Ch. ratisbonensis agg. Ch. pseudojankae is an endemic species of the Th atë and Galičica Mountain ranges, and morphologically it is between Ch. austriacus and Ch. eriocarpus agg. Additionally, the names Cytisus absinthioides and C. pygmaeus are lectotypifi ed.
