Mit einem Inserat in der Neuen Würzburger Zeitung 1850 zur Schleswig-Holstein-Frage zog er öffentlichen Unmut auf sich.

N2 - 1. Oviposition site selection is crucial for the reproductive success of herbivorous insects. According to the preference–performance hypothesis, females should oviposit on host plants that enhance the performance of their offspring. More specifically, the plant vigour hypothesis predicts that females should prefer large and vigorously growing host plants for oviposition and that larvae should perform best on these plants. 2. The present study examined whether females of the monophagous leaf beetle Cassida canaliculata Laich. (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae) prefer to oviposit on large host plant individuals of the meadow clary and whether large host plants are of higher nutritional quality than small host plants. Subsequently, it was tested whether the female preference correlates with offspring performance and survival. 3. In the field, females preferred large host plant individuals for oviposition and host plant quality, i.e. leaf nitrogen content, was significantly higher in leaves of large than of small host plants. 4. In the laboratory, larval development time was shorter on leaves of large host plant individuals than on small host plant individuals, but this could not be shown in the field. 5. However, a predator-exclusion experiment in the field resulted in a higher survival of larvae on large host plants than on small host plants when all predators had free access to the plants. On caged host plants there was no difference in survival of larvae between plant size categories. 6. It is concluded that females of C. canaliculata select oviposition sites that enhance both performance and survival of their offspring, which meets the predictions of the plant vigour hypothesis.

Only a small fraction of the members of the genus Hieracium has been illustrated or photo-documented in the literature. Since many of these publications are difficult to obtain, only a few specialists are familiar with most of the species and subspecies described in the literature. In order to overcome this problem and encourage geobotanical research on the genus Hieracium, we decided to edit an iconography of central and southern European Hieracia in an electronical journal (Forum geobotanicum) with free international access through the internet. Part I of this endeavour contains descriptions and photographs of the morphological spectrum of the genus Hieracium. Here, we categorize the genus into 15 basic morphotypes. These types conform partly to the sections and subsections of the genus Hieracium, but are in some cases informal and may even include members of different sections. Classification of morphotypes is considered helpful to obtain a first rough picture of an unknown species that then can be traced to the species and subspecies level by using keys or, after completion of this iconography, simply by screening the relevant images. One particularly novel aspect of the present endeavour will be the regular inclusion of magnified images and scanning electron micrographs.

T1 - Zur Kenntnis des Ranunculus auricomus-Komplexes in Deutschland: Ranunculus suborbicularis spec. nova T1 - The Ranunculus auricomus complex in Germany: Ranunculus suborbicularis spec. nova N2 - Die bei Schwarz (1949) als R. vertumnalis abgebildeten Pflanzen entsprechen nicht dem Typusmaterial, sondern weichen durch fast kreisförmige Blattspreiten der Schlussblätter und geringe Blattteilung ab. Sie werden hier als R. suborbicularis spec. nov. beschrieben und mit ihrem Blattzyklus und weiteren Belegen abgebildet. Die bekannte Verbreitung erstreckt sich auf Berlin (wohl erloschen), Thüringen und Bayern. Insgesamt ist aufgrund der kleinen Zahl der Populationen eine starke Gefährdung anzunehmen. N2 - In 1949 O. Schwarz published an article on thuringian species of the Ranunculus auricomus complex illustrated with several pictures of the species. However, figure 2, purported to represent Ranunculus vertumnalis, does not correspond with the type material. The specimen depicted in figure 2 of Schwarz (1949) showed almost circular later leaves and lacked the main incisures and, therefore, is described here as R. suborbicularis spec. nov. Details of leaf cycle, cauline leaves and other features are presented. The known distribution includes Thuringia, Bavaria and Berlin (obviously extinct). Due to a restricted number of populations R. suborbicularis is considered to be endangered.
