Iconography of the Genus Hieracium in central Europe - Part 1: General Description and Morphotypes
(2005)
The genus Hieracium comprises more than one thousand sexual and apomictic species in Europe, with numerous intermediates and microspecies. 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.
Zur Kenntnis des Ranunculus auricomus-Komplexes in Deutschland: Ranunculus suborbicularis spec. nova
(2005)
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.
