ABSTRACT 

Wurdack, John J. Atlas of Hairs for Neotropical Melastomataceae. Smithsonian Contributions to Botany, number 63, 80 pages, 244 figures, 1986.- 

Hairs of 4 12 taxa representing 66 genera of New World Melastomataceae 

were examined by SEM. Representatives for each hair type are illustrated by 

SEM micrographs. Epicuticular waxes are illustrated. Unusual “stomatal” 

apertures on intersepalar hairs in the genera Pterolepis and Tibouchina were 

found. Parallel evolution of hairs in different genera and subgeneric divisions 

has occurred frequently. Hair diversity probably is the result of evolution for 

protection against arthropod predators. 

OFFICIAL PUBLICATION DATE is handstamped in a limited number of initial copies and is

Atlas of Hairs for 

Neotropical Melastomataceae 

John J. 

Introduction 

Melastomataceae, the seventh largest family of 

flowering plants, has the greatest diversity of 

vestiture in the angiosperms. Three classical 

studies of the leaves (Pflaum, 1897; Palezieux, 

1899; Gottschall, 1900) gave descriptions, but 

few illustrations, of some hair types. Developmental stages of two hair types (smooth simple; 

smooth glandular) were illustrated by Weidt 

(1 935). Metcalfe and Chalk (1 950) covered the 

family gallimaufry in about a half page of text. 

Hummel and Staesche (1962) gave minimal discussion for the Melastomataceae. Feissly (1 964) 

illustrated and discussed the “emergences” and 

“poils” found in several African genera. Winkler 

(1 964) studied stellate hairs in two melastomes. 

As for other foliar appurtenances in the melastomes, Baas (1 98 1) accumulated limited data on 

foliar stomata and crystals; certainly these would 

be fertile fields for extended studies. 

None of the schemes of hair classification accommodates in detail the diversity of melastome 

hairs, particularly the “shaggy” (“poils massifs,” 

“Zotten”) spectrum. Recent vestiture literature 

in other flowering plants (Roe, 1971; Hardin, 

1976; Seithe, 1980; Edmonds, 1982; Inamdar et 

al., 1983; Hardin and Stone, 1984; Rodriguez et 

al., 1984) has not been adequate for overall 

Wurdack 

classification, although Hardin’s system for Quercus is helpful. The recent glossary by Payne 

(1978), if used with many qualifiers, perhaps 

could be adapted to melastomes. Generally, the 

arrangement here followed is after Theobald et 

al. (1 979), although the grouping of all glandular 

hairs together certainly is artificial. However, the 

SEM sampling completed over a six-year period 

represents only about 11% of the New World 

species. The illustrations in this atlas perhaps will 

stimulate modern anatomical studies. 

MATERIALS AND METHODS.-Leaf fragments 

and hypanthia were mounted on stubs, coated 

with gold/palladium, and examined with a Cambridge Stereoscan S4-10; about 4000 micrographs were taken. Almost all of the samples 

were taken from herbarium specimens (US), as 

referenced below (Appendix). A few experimental freeze-dryings from living material yielded no 

improvements in SEM images. The location sampled is indicated by UL (upper leaf surface), LL 

(lower leaf surface), and H (hypanthium); in a 

few instances, petioles, stems, and peduncles 

were examined. The sampling was not completely random, some perhaps critical species not 

being available. Extensive checking of flattened 

hairs in Tibouchina, “stomate”-bearing appendages in Pterolepis, and shaggy hairs in the Miconieae also skewed the coverage. All of the hairs 

illustrated are multicellular.

the preparations and micrographs during the 

hair survey. The micrographs were taken by 

Susann Braden in the Scanning Electron Microscope Laboratory at the National Museum of 

Natural History. Sarah K. Eichhorn has been 

especially helpful and patient during the protracted selection, with much reprinting, of the 

published micrographs. Mary Sangrey assisted in 

darkroom work. Ellen R. Farr developed the 

computer programs for the listings in the Appendix. Harry Dewey, research information specialist for the Agency for International Development, facilitated literature searches. 

General Considerations 

Several types of foliar hairs in a species are 

common in the melastomes, sometimes one type 

on the upper surface and one or more different 

forms on the lower surface. Usually the hairs of 

the primary leaf veins beneath are of the same 

type as the cauline ones, but the indument of the 

lower leaf surface is often different. Some of the 

hair mixtures are reflected in Figures 1-20. The 

permutations in glandular hairs are covered in 

Figures 2 1-72, in smooth hairs without enations 

in Figures 73-104, in hairs with enations in 

Figures 105-196, in vermiform (lanate) hairs in 

Figures 197-200, in scale-like (flattened) hairs in 

Figures 20 1-2 12, in lepidote hairs in Figures 

2 13-228, in pterolepoid appendages with “stomates” in Figures 229-242, and in epicuticular 

waxes in Figures 243, 244. In several of these 

categories, thin-walled and thick-walled groups 

(Hardin, 1976, 1979) have been segregated; critical-point drying studies of fresh or rehydrated 

thin-walled hairs are needed. Within the subcategories, the New World genera are ordered in 

an unpublished system.

NUMBER 63 3 

Much parallel evolution in hair types has 

occurred in the Melastomataceae. This is especially evident within the sections of Miconia. 

From field knowledge of many neotropical 

species, there is no adequate correlation with 

climate or edaphic factors. Probably the fallback idea of protection from arthropod predators is the only general explanation for melastome hair diversity (Levin, 1973; Johnson, 

1975; Juniper and Jeffree, 1983:37-43). Perhaps the glandular hairs are of importance in 

chemical or mechanical protection, as has been 

studied in other plant families (Rodriguez et 

al., 1984:187-241).

family sample showing the same hair type are 

listed below, with pertinent taxonomic comments.

of the Melastomoideae are represented. The 

sorting of the small hairs with thin-walled glands 

into two categories based on head shape is perhaps artificial.

3 1. Dendritic hairs with moderately long thinwalled arms (Figures 181-190): This hair type 

perhaps occurs in more species of Melastomataceae (including seven sections of Miconia) than 

any other category of roughened hairs.

32. Dendritic hairs with thin-walled arms and 

warty axis (Figures 19 1, 192): 

Leandra subseriata (H). 

33. Dendritic hairs with long thin-walled arms 

(Figures 193-196): 

Meriania calophylla (LL, H), Conostegia caelestis (UL), 

Miconia alata (LL), M. caudata (LL), M. eichleri (LL), M. 
NUMBER 63 7 

guaiquinimae (LL), M. holosericea (LL), M. irwinii (LL), 

1M. jahnii (LL), and Tetrazygia crotonijolia (LL). 

34. Vermiform (lanate) hairs (Figures 197- 

200): In previous taxonomic descriptions, this 

pubescence (low-power magnification) generally 

has been termed “formless.” 

Cambessedesia pityrophylla (LL), Marcetia lanuginosa (LL), 

Mallophyton chimantense (LL), Tibouchina crassiramis 

(LL), Miconia cladonia (LL), M. crassifolia (LL), M. fuertesii (LL), ,M. hypoleuca (LL), M. lourteigiana (LL), M. 

lutescens (LL), M. salicijolia (LL), andM. stenostachya (LL). 

35. Flattened and proximally attached leaf 

hairs (scales) (Figures 20 1-204): 

Tibouchina aegopogon (LL), T. aspera (UL), T. catherinae 

(LL), T. dissitzjlora (LL), T. duidae (LL), T. edmundoi 

(LL), T.fraterna (UL), T. karstenii (UL), T. mathaei (UL), 

T. melastomoides (UL, LL), T. papyrus (UL), T. praecox 

(UL), T. tamberlikii (UL, LL), T. sp. Anderson 7364 (UL, 

LL), and Pterolepis cataphracta (LL).

(Figures 205-208): 

Tibouchina barbigera, T. bipenicillata, T. edmundoi, T. 

guaraensis, T. irwinii, T. llanorum, T. karstenii, T. praecox, 

T. tamberlikii, and T. sp. Anderson 7364. 

37. Leaf scales, with basal ear (Figures 209- 

212): The scales with basal ears are especially 

prominent on young branchlets and along the 

primary leaf veins beneath. Flattened scales seem 

restricted to three sections of Tibouchina: Tibouchina, Lepidotae, and Barbigerae. “Zotten” of 

T. pogonanthera and T. mathaei were illustrated 

by Pflaum (1897, figs. 14, 15). 

Tibouchina aegopogon (LL), T. aspera (LL), T. aspera var. 

asperrima (LL), T. catherinae (LL), T. dissitzjlora (LL), T. 

duidae (LL), T. fraterna (LL, H), T. gleasoniana (LL, H), 

T. guaraensis (LL), T. inopinata (LL), T. paleacea (LL), T. 

sipapoana (LL), T. spruceana (LL), T. striphnocalyx (LL), 

and T. sp. Anderson 7364 (LL). 

38. Lepidote hairs with radii fused one-third 

or less (Figures 2 13-2 16): 

Miconia abbreviata (LL), M. centronioides (LL), M. idroboi 

(LL), M. lepidota (LL), M. plukenetii (LL), and M. pseudoaplostachya (LL). 

39. Lepidote hairs with radii %-completely 

fused (Figures 2 17-228): Hardin (1 976) distinguished “fused-stellate” hairs (with radii fused up 

to */3) and “squamate” hairs (radii fused more 

than */3). Gottschall (1900, figs. 18a, 18b) illustrated a “Schildhaar” of Miconia tiliaefolia. 

Miconia amnicola (LL, H), M. urceolata (LL), and Tetrazygia bicolor (LL). 

42. Pterolepoid hairs, essentially smooth, with 

gland-tipped branches (Figures 229-232): 

Pterolepis cataphracta, P. pumila, and P. riedeliana 

43. Pterolepoid hairs, eglandular and essentially smooth (Figures 233, 234): 

Pterolepis glomerata, P. maritima, P. paludosa, and P. 

rotundijolia. 

44. Pterolepoid hairs, roughened and with 

branches in part gland-tipped (Figures 235, 236): 

Pterolepis alpestris var. imbricata. 

45. Pterolepoid hairs, eglandular and roughened (Figures 237-242): Anatomical details of 

the “stomates” found on the trunks of intersepalar hairs in many species of Pterolepis are being 

studied further by W.L. Stern. Reports of such 

apertures on hairs have not been found in older 

literature. Judy Neuhauser was the first to notice 

the apertures, during the beginning of the SEM 

survey of melastome hairs. 

Tibouchina catherinae and Pterolepis paucijlora var. hirsutissima. 

46. Epicuticular waxes (Figures 243, 

244): No systematic search was made for epicuticular waxes (Baker, 1982), such excretions 

undoubtedly being of wider occurrence in the 

melastomes than here indicated. 

Pterolepis rotundijolia (H), Miconia luteynii (UL), Mommsenia apleura (UL), Tococa aristata (UL), Llewelynia 

williamsii (LL), Ossaea pauciflora (UL), 0. rufescens (UL), 

Blakea hydraeformis (UL), B. mexiae (LL), and Topobea 

ferruginea (LL).
