A new classification for Lipocarpha and Volkiella as infrageneric taxa of Cyperus s.l. (Cypereae, Cyperoideae, Cyperaceae): insights from species tree reconstruction supplemented with morphological and floral developmental data.
Recent molecular phylogenetic analyses showed that Lipocarpha and Volkiella are nested in a paraphyletic Cyperus s.s. and therefore should be viewed as part of a broadly circumscribed genus Cyperus (Cyperaceae). In this paper, molecular phylogenetic analyses of Lipocarpha and Volkiella based on nuclear ribosomal ETS1f and plastid rpl32-trnL and trnH-psbA...Bauters, Kenneth ; Larridon, Isabel ; Reynders, Marc ; Asselman, Pieter ; Vrijdaghs, Alexander …

Bulbostylis albidostricta (Abildgaardieae, Cyperaceae): a new sedge species from Angola.
Bulbostylis albidostricta Veltjen & Goetgh. is presented as new species of Bulbostylis (Cyperaceae) from Angola. It is a small, elegant sedge species characterised by a slender creeping rhizome, a single terminal spikelet, glumes with a translucent margin and white velate nutlets. The species is described and illustrated, and differences with...Veltjen, Emily ; Browning, Jane ; Goetghebeur, Paul ; Larridon, Isabel

Kindia (Pavetteae, Rubiaceae), a new cliff-dwelling genus with chemically profiled colleter exudate from Mt Gangan, Republic of Guinea.
A new genus (Pavetteae, Rubiaceae) is described with a single species, , based on collections made in 2016 during botanical exploration of Mt Gangan, Kindia, Republic of Guinea in West Africa. The Mt Gangan area is known for its many endemic species including the only native non-neotropical Bromeliaceae . is...Cheek, Martin ; Magassouba, Sékou ; Howes, Melanie-Jayne R. ; Doré, Tokpa ; Doumbouya, Saïdou …

Crosslandia setifolia is a partly monoecious species of Fimbristylis (Abildgaardieae: Cyperaceae)
While the limits of Fimbristylis Vahl (1805: 285) are contentious (Goetghebeur & Coudijzer 1984, Gordon-Gray 1971, Lye 1971, 1973), particularly with regard to the inclusion of Abildgaardia Vahl (1805: 296) within Fimbristylis , all current data support the derivation of Crosslandia W.Fitzg. (1906: 9) from within Fimbristylis (Ghamkhar et al....Roalson, Eric ; Barrett, Russell ; Wilson, Karen ; Bruhl, Jeremy ; Larridon, Isabel

A revision of the African genus Mesanthemum (Eriocaulaceae)
Mesanthemum is a genus comprising 16 species in the family Eriocaulaceae and is native to Africa and Madagascar. Eriocaulaceae are characterised by a basal tuft or rosette of narrow leaves and small flowers in heads. Mesanthemum can be recognised by diplostemonous flowers and fused glandular pistillate petals. While most Mesanthemum...Liang, Yuxi ; Phillips, Sylvia M. ; Cheek, Martin ; Larridon, Isabel
