A new species of Capparis (Capparaceae) from ultramafic substrata in New Caledonia

2017

A new species of Capparis, C. parvifolia, is described and illustrated from New Caledonia, where it is known from a few localities on Mont Kaala on ultramafic substrata. The new species is characterized by the relatively small, linear leaf-blade and by the small size of the sepals, petals, stamens, gynophore and fruit. Its affinities with related taxa are discussed and its conservation status assessed.

Helianthemum scopulicolum (Cistaceae), a new species from Majorca (Balearic Islands, Spain)

1999

Rupicolous plants coming from a single Balearic locality are described as a new species, Helianthemum scopulicolum. The plant is diploid (2n=20) and belongs to Helianthemum subgenus Helianthemum sect. Helianthemum. On morphological grounds, Helianthemum scopulicolum is related to some members of the H. apenninum aggregate, notably H. apenninum s.l., H. asperum and H. violaceum. However, the new species can be distinguished on the basis of leaves green, shining, glabrescent on the adaxial surface, deciduous short bracts, glabrescent inner sepals lacking long setae and pink-purple flowers.

Flower ontogeny inCapparis spinosa(Capparaceae) with special emphasis on symmetry expression

2015

The flower ontogeny of Capparis spinosa L. was studied using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) in order to shed light on the early expression of symmetry in a representative member of Capparaceae. Sepals start decussately with the abaxial and adaxial sepals, followed by the lateral ones. Petal appearance proceeds uni-directionally from the abaxial to the adaxial side. Stamens develop centrifugally on an androecial ring. Five to seven carpel lobes arise on a gynoecial ring. Monosymmetry is established in early development by the uni-directional petal appearance and is further enhanced by the acquisition of an abaxial nectary appendage and differential development of perianth organs at anthe…

Naisten asema ja rooli Puolustusvoimissa

2020

”Mikä sai naisen lähtemään armeijaan?” Kysymys toistui useampaan otteeseen vuoden aikana suorittaessani naisten vapaaehtoista asepalvelusta. Astuin palvelukseen vuoden 2000 heinäkuussa, jolloin naisia oli ollut varusmiehinä vajaat viisi vuotta. Tänä vuonna naisten vapaaehtoisen asepalveluksen mahdollistavan lain voimaantulosta ja ensimmäisten naisten palvelukseen astumisesta tulee kuluneeksi kaksikymmentäviisi vuotta. Se on samalla sekä pitkä että lyhyt aika. Paljon on muuttunut siitä, kun itse palvelin varusmiehenä. Nainen on kuitenkin sotilaana yhä erikoisuus: aiheesta keskustellaan, sitä joutuu perustelemaan ja edelleen on niitä, joiden mielestä nainen ei kuulu armeijaan tai sotilaaksi. …
