Bryum mildeanum, a rare species in the Iberian Peninsula, has frequently been confused with B. alpinum. In this study we provide new gametophytic and sporophytic (obtained by SEM) characters that can be used to separate the two and B. mildeanum is described and lectotypified. A molecular study based on two chloroplast DNA regions (trnL-F and trnG) was performed. The results suggest the evolutionary independence of B. mildeanum and B. alpinum, and the separation of both from B. gemmiparum, a species generally placed in the same subsection (Section Bryum, subsection Alpiniformia) as the other two.
In this contribution, the conservation status assessment of four vascular plants are presented according to IUCN categories and criteria. It includes the assessment at global level of Crepis lacera Ten subsp. titani (Pamp.) Roma-Marzio, G.Astuti & Peruzzi and Anthyllis hermanniae L. subsp. sicula Brullo & Giusso and the regional assessment of Commicarpus plumbagineus (Cav.) Standl. (Spain and Europe) and Ambrosia maritima L. (Italy).
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
