This article includes the bio-ecological and morphological description of the Kniphofia species in the non-traditional perennial plant collection of the Botanical Garden (Institute) of the Academy of Sciences of Moldova. Six species of the genus Kniphofia Moench were used in the study: Kniphofia uvaria (L.) Hook., K. ensifolia Bak., K. tukii Bak., K. nelsonii Mast, K. sarmentosa (Andr.) Kunth, K. citrina Bak. Under the pedo-climatic conditions of the Republic of Moldova, all species retain their biomorph, which demonstrates a high adaptation capacity. The most prolific species have been shown to be K. sarmentosa, K. tukii and K. ensifolia, which have the highest percentages of seed germination and vegetative multiplication.Rezumat.

The country with the highest taxonomic diversity in the Umbelliferae at the specific level, China possesses 657 species and 44 infraspecific taxa (in 110 genera) of the family, among all countries of the world. The number of endemic species is also considerable – 355. The main center of diversity of the Umbelliferae is SW part of the country, with 357 species, including 126 endemic ones. This center includes Sichuan (277 species and 40 endemics), Yunnan (256 species and 43 endemics), and adjacent parts of Guizhou and Xizang A. R. The largest Umbelliferae genera in Chinese flora are Angelica (49 species), Bupleurum (47), Pimpinella (46), Seseli (39), Hymenidium (37), Heracleum (31), Ferula (27), Pternopetalum (21), and Acronema (21). There are 8 endemic genera of the family in China – Sinolimprichtia, Cyclorhiza, Chaerophyllopsis, Harrysmithia, Sinodielsia, Dickinsia, Melanosciadium, and Changium. Grounded on long-term examination of Chinese and especially foreign herbarium collections and available electronic resources, the checklist includes a new generic arrangement of many species, based on morphological and molecular analyses, revised synonymy, typification and distribution of species, with regard to Chinese provinces and autonomous regions. For 309 accepted specific and infraspecific names and synonyms, lectotypification had been proposed for the first time. 13 new nomenclarural combinations in the genera Kitagawia Pimenov, Ligusticopsis Leute, Oreocomopsis Pimenov & Kljuykov, Seseli L., and Stenocoelium Ledeb. have been proposed.

The article is focused on the lectotypification of Nymphaea tetragona Georgi (Nymphaeaceae). The species was described by the famous German botanist J. Georgi at the end of the XVIII century on the materials collected in Eastern Siberia. In 2014, a herbarium specimen collected by Georgi in 1772 in the upper reaches of the Angara River has been found in the herbarium of the Komarov Botanical Institute. It originates from the herbarium of P. S. Pallas (later owned by F. B. Fischer) and bears an annotation “Nymphaea tetragona sp. nova”. This is also evidenced by the existing on herbarium specimen additional label written, with great probability, by the hand of Georgi. Based on these evidences, we assume that the specimen belongs to the original material of N. tetragona. Due to the fact that no other original elements of this species are hitherto found in the largest Western European herbaria, we propose choosing our sample as the lectotype. It is represented by one leaf and two flowers, and no epitypification isrequired. The specimen is stored in the type collection of the Siberia and Far East Department of the Herbarium of Komarov Botanical Institute (LE). The image of the lectotype is provided here. | Статья посвящена лектотипификации Nymphaea tetragona Georgi (Nymphaeaceae). Вид был описан известным немецким ботаником J. Georgi в конце XVIII века по материалам, собранным им в 1772 г. в верховьях р. Ангары в Восточной Сибири. В 2014 г. в Гербарии БИН РАН обнаружен оригинальный гербарный образец Георги (из гербария П. С. Палласа, позднее принадлежавший Ф. Б. Фишеру). Об этом свидетельствует имеющаяся на гербарном листе дополнительная этикетка, написанная, с большой долей вероятности, рукой самого Георги. Также на этикетке имеется надпись: «Nymphaea tetragona sp. nova». Мы предполагаем, что именно на его основании J. Georgi описал свой новый вид кувшинки – N. tetragona. В связи с тем, что до сих пор оригинальных образцов этого вида в крупнейших западноевропейских гербариях обнаружено не было, мы предлагаем выбрать наш образец в качестве лектотипа. Он полноценный – представлен листом и двумя цветками, и к нему не требуется выбирать эпитип. Образец хранится в типовой коллекции сектора Сибири и Дальнего Востока  Гербария БИН РАН (LE), его изображение приведено.

The ferns family Hymenophyllaceae is one of the most interesting basal clades of ferns, which is widely distributed in tropical and subtropical regions, less common in temperate latitudes of both hemispheres. This work deals with the taxonomic study of the representatives of the subfamily Trichomanoideae, which according to the classification of PPG 1 (2016) in the region are represented only by three genera. Following the style of the treatment of the genus Hymenophyllum, this paper is the second report of our studies of the filmy ferns from the Pan-Himalaya which is a part of the ongoing “Flora of Pan-Himalaya” project. In the present account, the taxonomy of three genera of Hymenophyllaceae: Crepidomanes, Didymoglossum, and Vandenboschia from the Pan-Himalaya are carefully revised based on morphological characters and recent works in the region. Herbarium materials kept in the National Herbarium (PE) have been fully studied and compared with collections from the Himalayas kept in European herbaria (K, BM, E). The generic and infrageneric classifications follow those of Ebihara et al. (2006) which recognized only nine genera. In the Himalayas, only four genera represented, i. e., Hymenophyllum (10 species), Crepidomanes (5 species), Didymoglossum (1 species), and Vandenboschia (2 species). The synopsis includes a key for species identification, standard taxonomic citations for the genus, sections, species. For each taxon as well as of each synonym are verified and indicated, necessary literature citation, morphology descriprion and citation of the reprehensive specimens from the Pan-Himalaya are recorded, overall distribution is mentioned and distribution in the Flora of Pan-Himalaya area is mapped. Although this is only a precursor of the ongoing “Flora of Pan-Himalaya” project, it is useful for identification of new collections from the area, and provides basic information for the conservation and ecological studies of the filmy ferns from the Himalayas, a very sensitive area to global changes. Crepidomanes parvifolium and Didymoglossum sublimbatum in this region are critical endangered concerning their small populations and limited distribution. | Папоротники семейства Hymenophyllaceae являются одной из интереснейших базальных клад, представители которой широко распространены в тропических и субтропических регионах, реже в умеренных широтах обоих полушарий. Данная работа посвящена таксономическому исследованию видов подсемейства Trichomanoideae, которое по классификации авторов PPG 1 (2016) в данном регионе представлено только тремя родами. Вслед за обработкой рода Hymenophyllum, эта статья является продолжением наших исследований пленчатолистных папоротников из Гималаев и прилегающих регионов, и является частью продолжающегося проекта “Flora of Pan-Himalaya”. В настоящей работе представлена таксономическая обработка для пангималайского региона трех родов из семейства Hymenophyllaceae: Crepidomanes, Didymoglossum и Vandenboschia, которые были тщательно пересмотрены с учетом последних работ по данной территории. Изучены гербарные материалы, хранящиеся в гербариях Китая (PE) и Европы (K, BM, E). Родовая и подродовая классификация приводятся согласно работе Ebihara et al. (2006), где авторы признают только девять родов. В Гималаях представлены четыре рода семейства: Hymenophyllum (10 видов), Crepidomanes (5 видов), Didymoglossum (1 вид) и Vandenboschia (2 вида). Конспект включает ключ для определения видов, стандартное таксономическое цитирование для родов, секций и видов. Для каждого вида указываются синонимы, информация о типе и месте его хранения (также для синонимов), цитируется основная литература, приводятся подробное морфологическое описание и изученные образцы из пангималайского региона, указывается распространение в пределах области «Флоры» и общее распространение. Представленная работа полезна как отправная точка для выявления новых находок представителей Hymenophyllaceae в этом районе и как основа для планирования мероприятий по сохранению пленчатолистных папоротников Гималаев, которые очень чувствительны к глобальным изменениям климата. Crepidomanes parvifolium и Didymoglossum sublimbatum в этом регионе находятся под угрозой исчезновения вследствие небольшой численности популяций и ограниченного распространения.

From the environs of Korla (East Tian-Shan) a new subspecies Paralasa bogutena haverineni ssp. n. is described, based on three male specimens deposited in the Museum für Naturkunde Leibniz-Institut für Evolutionsund Biodiversitätsforschung, Berlin (Germany). The new subspecies differs well from other known subspecies by its wing pattern (the submarginal band on the forewing upperside) and by its male genital armatures (spikes number on the valval outgrowth). The collecting site of the new subspecies is located about 700 km far northwestwards from the next population of P. bogutena.

The proposed classification system of the species Linum usitatissimum L. is based on the morphological features and the results of analyzing hybrids from full diallelic crossing among 10 flax forms representing all possible taxonomic units of the species including primitive forms, and the wild species L. angustifolium Huds. Genetic similarity between taxa was judged by their morphological affinity, crossability both among themselves and with L. angustifolium as a supposed ancestor of cultivated flax, and viability of F1. The differences between fiber, intermediate and crown flax forms were recognized as insufficient to confer the rank of subspecies upon them. They are suggested to be regarded as varieties within the confines of the type species: L. usitatissimum subsp. usitatissimum var. elongatum (Sinsk.) Kutuz. comb. nov., L. usitatissimum var. intermedium (Czernom.) Kutuz. comb. nov., and L. usitatissimum var. humile (Czernom.) Kutuz. com. nov. respectively. Taking into account practically 100 percent emergence and death of dwarf plants in F1 from the cross between the flax from Ethiopia and L. angustifolium, despite the absence of significant differences with crown flax forms, it is suggested that this form should be identified as a variety within the same ssp.: L. usitatissimum var. nanum Kutuz. var. nova. Colchian flax is fairly close to the cultivated one but differs considerably from the latter in its morphological traits, so it seems justified to bestow upon it the status of variety: L. usitatissimum subsp. bienne (Mill.) Stankev. var. colchicum Kutuz. var. nova. It is arguable that the large-seeded flaxes of the Mediterranean and the biennial (semi-winter) flax can be considered as having the rank of subspecies: L. usitatissimum L. subsp. latifolium (L.) Stankev. and L. usitatissimum subsp. bienne (Mill.) Stankev. L. crepitans Dum. and L. angustifolium Huds. are independent species in their own right. | Предложена классификация вида Linum usitatissimum L., основанная на морфологических признаках и результатах изучения гибридов от полного циклического скрещивания между 10 формами льна, представляющими все возможные таксономические единицы вида, включая примитивные формы и дикорастущий вид L. angustifolium Huds. О генетической близости таксонов судили по морфологическому сходству, способности скрещиваться между собой и с L. angustifolium, как предполагаемым предком культурного льна, и жизнеспособности гибридов F1,. Установлено, что различия между долгунцами, межеумками и кудряшами недостаточны для присвоения им статуса подвидов. Предлагается считать их разновидностями в рамках типового подвида – L. usitatissimum subsp. usitatissimum var. elongatum (Sinsk.) Kutuz. comb. nov., L. usitatissimum var. intermedium (Czernom.) Kutuz. comb. nov. и L. usitatissimum var. humile (Czernom.) Kutuz. com. nov., соответственно. Учитывая практически 100%-ное образование и гибель карликовых растений в F1 от скрещивания льна из Эфиопии с L. angustifolium, несмотря на отсутствие существенных различий с кудряшами, предлагается выделить эту форму в качестве разновидности в рамках того же подвида: L. usitatissimum var. nanum Kutuz. var. nova. Колхидскому льну, довольно близкому к культурному, но существенно отличающемуся от него по морфологическим признакам, считаем правомерным присвоение статуса разновидности – L. usitatissimum subsp. bienne (Mill.) Stankev. var. colchicum Kutuz. var. nova. Есть основания рассматривать крупносемянные льны Средиземноморья и лен двулетний (полуозимый) в ранге подвидов – L. usitatissimum L. subsp. latifolium (L.) Stankev. и L. usitatissimum subsp. bienne (Mill.) Stankev. Самостоятельными видами являются L. crepitans Dum. и L. angustifolium Huds.
