Phylogenomic inference of the African tribe Monodoreae (Annonaceae) and taxonomic revision of Dennettia, Uvariodendron and Uvariopsis.
Monodoreae (Annonaceae) is a tribe composed of 11 genera and 90 species restricted to the tropical African rain forests. All the genera are taxonomically well circumscribed except the species rich genera and which lack a recent taxonomic revision. Here, we used a robust phylogenomic approach, including all the 90 currently... -

Pushing the Frontiers of Biodiversity Research: Unveiling the Global Diversity, Distribution, and Conservation of Fungi.
Fungi comprise approximately 20% of all eukaryotic species and are connected to virtually all life forms on Earth. Yet, their diversity remains contentious, their distribution elusive, and their conservation neglected. We aim to flip this situation by synthesizing current knowledge. We present a revised estimate of 2–3 million fungal species...Niskanen, Tuula ; Lücking, Robert ; Dahlberg, Anders ; Gaya, Ester ; Suz, Laura M. …

A further new species of Isoglossa (Acanthaceae) from the Eastern Arc Mountains of Tanzania.
I.Darbysh. & Hemp (Acanthaceae), from submontane moist forest at Mwala in the South Pare Mountains of northeastern Tanzania, is described and illustrated. This species is considered to be related to (S.Moore) Lindau and (Vahl) Brummitt & J.R.I.Wood, which are widespread in the montane forests of eastern Africa, but it clearly...Darbyshire, Iain ; Hemp, Andreas

Fungal Community Composition at the Last Remaining Wild Site of Yellow Early Marsh Orchid (Dactylorhiza incarnata ssp. ochroleuca).
The yellow early marsh orchid (Dactylorhiza incarnata ssp. ochroleuca) is a critically endangered terrestrial orchid in Britain. Previous attempts to translocate symbiotic seedlings to a site near the last remaining wild site demonstrated some success, with a 10% survival rate despite adverse weather conditions over a two-year period. However, to... -

The forgotten giant of the Pacific: a review on giant taro (Alocasia macrorrhizos (L.) G.Don).
This article provides an overview over taxonomy, distribution, cultivation and use of giant taro, (L.) G.Don. The species belongs to the Araceae (aroid) family, which consists of 3700 species grouped into 107 genera. Among those species are several important crop species from tropical Asia and America. Giant taro, with a...Müller, Jonas V. ; Guzzon, Filippo

A taxonomic overview of Orchis sect. Robustocalcare (Orchidaceae).
Orchis patens has previously been considered to consist of three widely disjunct populations in northern Italy, Algeria/Tunisia and the Canary Islands. The last is already commonly treated as O. canariensis, but because the type of O. patens is from the Algerian populations, the name of the Italian taxon has been...Calevo, Jacopo ; Christenhusz, Maarten J.
