Typification and synonymization inPrimulasect.Auricula(Primulaceae)

2005

Supplementing a recent systematic study of Primula sect. Auricula, we here lectotypify or neotypify 27 names applicable to taxa in this section and the name of one related genus. These are P. auricula var. widmerae Pax, P. balbisii Lehm., P. ciliata Moretti, P. cottia Widmer, P. crenata Lam., P. oenensis Thomas ex Gremli, P. glaucescens Moretti, P. glutinosa Wulfen, P. integrifolia L., P. latifolia var. cynoglossifolia Widmer, P. laevigata Duby ex Rchb., P. longobarda Parta, P. lutea Vill., P. marginata Curtis, P. microcalyx Lehm., P. minima L., P. parlatorii Porta ex Caruel, P. villosa Wulfen, P. villosa var. daonensis Leyb., P. viscosa Vill., P. [unranked] Brevihracteae Widmer, P. [unrank…

Phaenoglyphis villosa(Hartig 1841) (Hymenoptera: Figitidae: Charipinae): a complex of species or a single but very variable species?

2007

The status of Phaenoglyphis villosa (Hartig 1841), the only species in this genus with the radial cell partially open along the wing margin, is discussed. A complete synonymy list, redescription, morphological variability and some biological peculiarities of P. villosa are given. After studying numerous specimens from different countries from all continents, we concluded that this species is either very variable or might be a complex of sibling species. Auloxysta tarsata Belizin 1973, is a new synonym of P. villosa and P. dolichocera (Cameron 1889) was re-established as a valid species. Resume.

Two new records of Alloxysta (Hymenoptera: Cynipoidea: Figitidae: Charipinae) from Colombia

2016

The Charipinae from Colombia has been recently studied. Nine Charipinae species are known to be present in this country: Alloxysta arcuata (Kieffer, 1902), Alloxysta castanea (Hartig, 1841), Alloxysta consobrina (Zetterstedt, 1838), Alloxysta hansoni Pujade-Villar, 2011, Alloxysta obscurata (Hartig, 1840), Alloxysta medinae Ferrer-Suay & Pujade-Villar, 2012, Alloxysta pilipennis (Hartig, 1840), Alloxysta torresi Ferrer-Suay & Pujade-Villar, 2012 and Phaenoglyphis villosa (Hartig, 1841). Here more Charipinae material has been studied from collections made with Malaise traps by the Humboldt Institute in several places of Colombia. In this study, two species are recorded for the first …

Deep conservation of bivalve nacre proteins highlighted by shell matrix proteomics of the Unionoida Elliptio complanata and Villosa lienosa.

2016

The formation of the molluscan shell nacre is regulated to a large extent by a matrix of extracellular macromolecules that are secreted by the shell-forming tissue, the mantle. This so-called ‘calcifying matrix’ is a complex mixture of proteins, glycoproteins and polysaccharides that is assembled and occluded within the mineral phase during the calcification process. Better molecular-level characterization of the substances that regulate nacre formation is still required. Notable advances in expressed tag sequencing of freshwater mussels, such as Elliptio complanata and Villosa lienosa , provide a pre-requisite to further characterize bivalve nacre proteins by a proteomic approach. In this…

Distribution of recent ostracods in inland waters of Sicily (Southern Italy)

2006

From 2003 to 2005, freshwater ostracods were sampled in 67 water bodies of mainland Sicily (Provinces of Agrigento, Caltanisetta, Catania, Enna, Palermo, Messina, Ragusa, Siracusa and Trapani) located from sea level up to 1300 m a.s.l. This survey took into account streams, springs, wells, but especially temporary and ephemeral habitats (e.g., flooded meadows, temporary ponds). The aim of this research was to give the first comprehensive picture of the regional ostracod fauna and establish relationships between the distribution of ostracod species and some habitat features. Altogether, 21 ostracod taxa belonging to five families (Candonidae, Ilyocyprididae, Cyprididae, Notodromadidae, and L…

Cytogenetical test to predict the vigour potential in Brassica seeds under long-term storage.

2013

Preservation of intraspecific diversity in seed banks is a common strategy to frontier the loss of biodi- versity, however long-term storage inevitably results in the loss of a certain percentage of seeds, there- fore causing the genetic erosion of a seed collection. For this reason seed quality monitoring is of out- standing importance to ensure that the regenerated genetic material is representative of the endemic nat- ural diversity once reintroduced in the environment, as well as to preserve the genetic biodiversity of species economically relevant for modern agriculture. Ageing amplification tests, in which seeds under- go osmotic stresses, enable to detect little differences in the vi…
