Aktuell bekannte Vorkommen von A. adiantum-nigrum L., A. ceterach L., A. ruta-muraria L., A. scolopendrium L., A. septentrionale (L.) Hoffm., A. trichomanes L. und A. viride W. Huds. im Mitteldeutschen Trockengebiet um Halle werden mitgeteilt. Erstmalig wurden Vorkommen von Asplenium trichomanes auf Unterarten untersucht und die Ergebnisse vorgestellt. Auch der intraspezifische Bastard A. trichomanes nothosubsp. lovisianum S. Jess. wurde nachgewiesen.
Eine bisher nicht erkannte heimische Scharbockskrautart, Ficaria calthifolia Rchb., wurde im Elbetal bei Pretzsch neu für Sachsen-Anhalt nachgewiesen. Da die Art nicht über Mechanismen zur aktiven Fernausbreitung verfügt, sondern räumlich-zeitlich kleine Nischen besiedelt (CSR-Strategie), ist Habitatkontinuität wichtig. In diesem Zusammenhang wird die Bedeutung von historisch altem Grünland diskutiert.
Die Fundortdaten der im Altmarkkreis Salzwedel nachgewiesenen Verwilderungen von Amelanchier alnifolia, A. lamarckii und A. spicata werden mitgeteilt. Angaben zu den Standortverhältnissen, zur Begleitflora und zum Populationsumfang ergänzen die Ausführungen. Außerdem wird auf wesentliche Unterscheidungsmerkmale der drei Arten eingegangen.
Pulmonaria obscura ist die einzige Art des Genus Pulmonaria, die im Raum Salzwedel noch autochthone Vorkommen aufzuweisen hat. Hinzu kommen einige Verwilderungen der auch als Zierpflanze gezogenen P. officinalis s. str. Von beiden Arten werden die aktuellen Nachweisdaten mitgeteilt. Auf die Differenzierung des P. officinalis agg. und die Trennung von weiteren kultivierten Sippen wird eingegangen. Außerdem werden die historischen Aufzeichnungen über Vorkommen von P. angustifolia bei Salzwedel dargestellt. Angaben zur Bedeutung von P. officinalis s. str. in der Volksheilkunde vervollständigen die Ausführungen.
Based on newly collected material from the Kavieng Lagoon Biodiversity Survey, we describe a new species of cone snail, Conus hughmorrisoni sp. nov., from the vicinity of Kavieng, New Ireland, Papua New Guinea. It closely resembles the New Caledonian C. exiguus and the Philippine C. hanshassi, but differs from these species by having more numerous shoulder tubercles, by the shell’s sculpturing and details of the color pattern. We also sequenced a fragment of the mitochondrial COI gene of five specimens collected alive. All possessed very similar sequences (genetic distances < 0.3%), different from all the COI sequences of cone snails available in GenBank (genetic distances > 10%).
The species group effusus of the genus Pyrops Spinola, 1839 is reviewed and the nomenclatural history of the genus Pyrops is briefly summarized. One new species from eastern Borneo, Pyrops synavei sp. nov., is described. P. gunjii (Satô & Nagai, 1994) stat. nov. is proposed as a valid species instead of a subspecies of P. whiteheadi (Distant, 1889). P. maquilinganus (Baker, 1925) is removed from the effusus group and placed back into the candelaria group. P. cyanirostris (Guérin-Méneville, 1845) is removed from the group and not attributed to any of the currently defined species groups. An illustrated key to the species of the group with the addition of P. intricatus (Walker, 1857) and a distribution map are given. The effusus group is restricted to Borneo and adjacent Laut Island and presently contains 4 species: P. effusus (Distant, 1891), P. gunjii (Satô & Nagai, 1994) stat.nov., P. synavei sp. nov. and P. whiteheadi (Distant, 1889). Trophobiosis observations with the gecko Gehyra mutilata (Wiegmann, 1835) (Reptilia: Squamata: Gekkonidae) and two species of cockroaches (Insecta: Blattodea), one Dorylaea sp. and an unidentified species of Pseudophyllodromiinae, are reported and illustrated for P. whiteheadi; observation with a cockroach, Dorylaea sp., is reported for P. intricatus.
New species of Lepechinella, L. norvegica sp. nov. and L. victoriae sp. nov., from the North East Atlantic are described together with the new, closely related genus and species Lepesubchela christinae gen. et sp. nov. Lepechinella arctica Schellenberg, 1926 from north of Spitsbergen and Lepechinella schellenbergi Stephensen, 1944 from Greenland are redescribed. A key to the species of Atlantic and Arctic Lepechinella is provided. Descriptions of taxonomic characters from related species in the Atlantic and Arctic are discussed.
Evolutionary developmental biology (evo-devo) suggests a distinction between modular and systemic variation. In the case of modular change, the conservation of the overall structure helps recognizing affinities, while a single, fast evolving module is likely to produce a bonanza for the taxonomist, while systemic changes produce strongly deviating morphologies that cause problems in tracing homologies. Similarly, changes affecting the whole life cycle are more challenging than those limited to one stage. Developmental modularity is a precondition for heterochrony. Analyzing a matrix of morphological data for paedomorphic taxa requires special care. It is, however, possible to extract phylogenetic signal from heterochronic patterns. The taxonomist should pay attention to the intricacies of the genotype→phenotype map. When using genetic data to infer phylogeny, a comparison of gene sequences is just a first step. To bridge the gap between genes and morphology we should consider the spatial and temporal patterns of gene expression, and their regulation. Minor genetic change can have major phenotypic effects, sometimes suggesting saltational evolution. Evo-devo is also relevant in respect to speciation: changes in developmental schedules are often implicated in the divergence between sympatric morphs, and a developmental modulation of ‘temporal phenotypes’ appears to be responsible for many cases of speciation.
