The goal of this study was to compare the vegetation structure of macrophytes in an anabranch-lake system. Sampling was carried out at flood in three types of aquatic vegetation, (wild-rice, floating meadow and Polygonum bank) in anabranch Bonfim (lotic) and in lake Mandioré (lentic) in plots along transects, to estimate the percent coverage and record life forms of species. We collected 59 species in 50 genera and 28 families. Fabaceae and Poaceae were the most representative and emergent plants predominated (62%). In the anabranch, with 48 species, Polygonum acuminatum and Paspalum repens (7%) were more frequent (8%); in the lake, with 39 species, the most frequent were Polygonum ferrugineum (7%) and Hymenachne amplexicaulis (9%). Both evaluated ecosystems have low floristic similarity (66.6%), which was repeated among the communities analyzed by environment: wild-rice (0.33%), Polygonum banks (0.37%); floating meadows (0.32%). The anabranch was richer and more diverse than the lake; wild-rice community was the most diverse compared to other ones in anabranch, while in the lake the Polygonum bank community was the most diverse. The life forms of species varied in relation to the environments (lotic and lentic) studied.
A comparative anatomical study was carried out on the secretory structures of leaflets from taxa belonging to the genus Rhynchosia -taxa difficult to delimit because of uncertain interspecific relations -in order to evaluate the potential diagnostic value of these anatomical traits for taxonomic assignment. A further objective was to establish consensual denomination for these secretory structures. The new anatomical features found in these taxa were sufficiently consistent to separate the species evaluated. The presence and localization of glandular-punctate structures bulbous-based trichomes, the number of layers in the palisade parenchyma and the arrangement of vascular units distinguish the taxa investigated and these characteristics can be extended to other species of Papilionoideae. The trichomes analyzed were described and classified into five types. Depicted in diagrams, photomicrographs, and by scanning electron microscopy, and listed for the first time at the genus and species levels. The information obtained served to effectively distinguish the taxa investigated among species of Papilonoideae.
RESUMO -Guibourtia hymenifolia (Moric.) J. Leonard (Fabaceae) é uma espécie arbórea de potencial madeireiro com ocorrência natural nas florestas estacionais deciduais e semideciduais sob afloramentos calcários na Serra da Bodoquena, Mato Grosso do Sul, Brasil. Foram descritos e ilustrados os aspectos morfológicos dos frutos, sementes e desenvolvimento das plântulas e plantas jovens de G. hymenifolia. O fruto é do tipo legume, deiscente, unispermo. A semente possui forma elíptica, forte coloração alaranjada e presença de arilo esbranquiçado de origem funicular. Obtiveram-se 66% de germinação em câmara de germinação, sendo a morfologia inicial das plântulas fanerocotiledonar epígea, com cotilédones carnosos. As plântulas e plantas jovens apresentam mudança de filotaxia, sendo os eofilos opostos e unifoliolados e os metafilos, alternos, peciolados e bifoliolados. Eofilos e metafilos apresentam nervação pinada do tipo camptódromo broquidódromo. Esses resultados contribuem em estudos taxonômicos da espécie e permitem a identificação das plântulas em estudos de regeneração natural.Palavras-chave: Regeneração natural, Germinação e Nervação foliar.

RESUMO:As espécies Polygonum punctatum, Polygonum hydropiperoides, Polygonum ferrugineum, Polygonum acuminatum foram analisadas quanto ao perfi l cromatográfi co e comparadas com amostras comercializadas como "erva-de-bicho". As análises foram realizadas empregando cromatografi a líquida de alta efi ciência. Verifi cou-se que as amostras analisadas exibem perfi l cromatográfi co distinto. O perfi l cromatográfi co das amostras comercializadas como "erva-de-bicho" foram semelhantes aos obtidos para as amostra de Polygonum acuminatum ou Polygonum ferrugineum ou não apresentaram picos nos cromatogramas. Foram monitorados na determinação do perfi l cromatográfi co os comprimentos de onda de 254 nm e 362 nm.Unitermos: Polygonum acuminatum, Polygonum ferrugineum, Polygonum hydropiperoides, Polygonum punctatum, cromatografi a líquida de alta efi ciência.ABSTRACT: "Evaluation of the chromatographic profi le of species of Polygonum and samples of the "erva-de-bicho". The species Polygonum punctatum, Polygonum hydropiperoides, Polygonum ferrugineum, Polygonum acuminatum were analyzed and compared with commercialized samples of "erva-de-bicho". This analysis was performed using high performance liquid chromatography. It was verifi ed that the analyzed samples show a distinct. The chromatographic profi le of the samples commercialized as "erva-de-bicho" was similar to the Polygonum acuminatum or Polygonum ferrugineum profi les, or did not present peaks in the chromatograms. The chromatographic profi les were monitored in the 254 nm and 362 nm.
4RESUMO -Ormosia arborea (Vell.) Harms e Ormosia fastigiata Tul. são espécies similares em muitos caracteres morfológicos, o que resulta em dificuldade na sua identificação, tanto em campo quanto em material herborizado. Neste estudo foram descritas as características morfológicas das sementes e morfoanatômicas das plântulas e plantas jovens de O. arborea e O. fastigiata, coletadas em restinga e em mata ciliar, respectivamente. Sementes e plântulas foram processadas segundo técnicas usuais. As sementes de O. arborea são mais pesadas e têm germinação hipógea criptocotiledonar. O caule contém tricomas tectores esparsos e grande quantidade de lenticelas e, na raiz, nodulações. A folha apresenta parênquima paliçádico de células mais curtas, com base mais larga e presença de pigmentos vacuolares, espaços intercelulares conspícuos no parênquima esponjoso, tricomas tectores restritos à nervura principal e células epidérmicas da face adaxial maiores que as da face abaxial. A germinação de O. fastigiata é fanerocotiledonar, e a plântula possui muitos tricomas ao longo do caule e lenticelas restritas à região basal deste. As folhas apresentam tricomas tectores em todas as nervuras, com parênquima paliçádico de células tipicamente alongadas e parênquima esponjoso com espaços intercelulares reduzidos. Tais características são consistentes para separar as plântulas e sementes dessas espécies, que têm a mesma denominação popular e contribuem com informações úteis para o meio produtivo.Palavras-chave: Morfologia da semente, Mata ciliar e Restinga.
