Taxonomy and systematics of Urophyllum (Rubiaceae) in Thailand and Indochina.
The genus Urophyllum Wall. is a taxonomically problematic genus of Rubiaceae in Thailand due to the lack of a recent taxonomic revision and identification key to the species. This has led to confusion in the identification of species and no conservation status assessments for the genus. The aim of this...Yooprasert, Sawita

Taxonomy, evolutionary history, and ecological dominance of Themeda and Heteropogon.
Heteropogon and Themeda grasses are common and significant components of the C4 savannas which have recently gained more attention for conservation and biodiversity research. The two genera have been the subject of ecological research due to their widespread and dominant species H. contortus and T. themeda. Like many tropical plant...Arthan, Watchara

Ardisia krauensis, a new species of Primulaceae (Myrsinoideae) from Peninsular Malaysia.
Ardisia krauensis, a new species of Primulaceae from Peninsular Malaysia, is described and illustrated. The new species is assignable into subgenus (§) on account of specialised lateral reproductive branches bearing a terminal inflorescence subtended by foliose bracts. Morphologically, the new species mostly resembles in having elliptic leaves. However, the new... -

Evolution of pollen grain morphology in Amorimia and allies evidences the importance of palynological apomorphies and homoplasies in Malpighiaceae systematics.
– Pollen grain morphology is an important morphological character for aiding the systematics of flowering plants. For Malpighiaceae, only a single unpublished palynological study has comprehensively sampled ca 60 of this family’s 75 currently accepted genera. To test the systematic relevance of pollen morphology in and allies, we characterised the... -

A conceptual framework for nomenclatural stability and validity of medically important fungi: a proposed global consensus guideline for fungal name changes supported by ABP, ASM, CLSI, ECMM, ESCMID-EFISG, EUCAST-AFST, FDLC, IDSA, ISHAM, MMSA, and MSGERC.
The rapid pace of name changes of medically important fungi is creating challenges for clinical laboratories and clinicians involved in patient care. We describe two sources of name change which have different drivers, at the species versus the genus level. Some suggestions are made here to reduce the number of...de Hoog, Sybren ; Walsh, Thomas J. ; Ahmed, Sarah A. ; Alastruey-Izquierdo, Ana ; Alexander, Barbara D. …
