A taxonomic revision of the myrmecophilous species of the rattan genus Korthalsia (Arecaceae)
The rattan genus Korthalsia Blume (Arecaceae: Calamoideae: Calameae) is widespread in the Malesian region. Among the 28 accepted species are 10 species that form intimate associations with ants. The ants inhabit the conspicuous ocreas that are produced by these species, using them as domatia to care for their young and...Shahimi, Salwa ; Conejero, Maria ; Prychid, Christina J. ; Rudall, Paula J. ; Hawkins, Julie A. …

Viburnum tinus Fruits Use Lipids to Produce Metallic Blue Structural Color
Viburnum tinus is an evergreen shrub that is native to the Mediterranean region but cultivated widely in Europe and around the world. It produces ripe metallic blue fruits throughout winter [1]. Despite its limited fleshy pulp [2], its high lipid content [3] makes it a valuable resource to the small... -

Flower and Spikelet Construction in Rapateaceae (Poales).
The family Rapateaceae represents an early-divergent lineage of Poales with biotically pollinated showy flowers. We investigate developmental morphology and anatomy in all three subfamilies and five tribes of Rapateaceae to distinguish between contrasting hypotheses on spikelet morphology and to address questions on the presence of nectaries and gynoecium structure. We...Koblova, Sofia D. ; Rudall, Paula J. ; Sokoloff, Dmitry D. ; Stevenson, Dennis W. ; Remizowa, Margarita V.
