Abstract
A new and critically endangered species of Phyllanthus, endemic to the Parque Nacional da Tijuca in Rio de Janeiro State, Brazil, is described and illustrated here. Phyllanthus celatus is placed in Phyllanthus subgenus Phyllanthus section Phyllanthus subsection Phyllanthus. Morphologically it resembles P. augustinii, P. lobatus and P. niruri, but differs mainly by presenting reddish primary, secondary and intersecondary veins on the abaxial surface (vs absent in both species), and 5-lobed pistillate disc (vs entire only in P. augustinii and P. niruri). Of these, only P. lobatus has a lobed disc, but it differs in pistillate sepals light green (vs whitish or slightly pinkish), deeply 5-lobed pistillate glandular disc (vs 3–5-lobed), styles erect (vs curved), and geographic distribution restricted to the Southeast (vs South). The systematic position of this species and its morphological relationships with allies are discussed and field photographs, illustrations, a distribution map, preliminary conservation status, and taxonomic notes are provided.
本文描述了巴西里约热内卢州蒂茹卡国家公园(Parque Nacional da Tijuca)特有的一种极度濒危的新种Phyllanthus。Phyllanthus celatus被归入Phyllanthus亚属Phyllanthus科Phyllanthus亚科Phyllanthus属。从形态上看,它与 P. augustinii、P. lobatus 和 P. niruri 相似,但主要区别在于背面呈现带红色的主脉、次脉和中间脉(而这两个物种均无),以及雌蕊花盘 5 裂(而 P. augustinii 和 P. niruri 只有全裂)。lobatus 的雌蕊萼片为淡绿色(vs 带白色或略带粉红色),雌蕊腺盘深 5 裂(vs 3-5 裂),花柱直立(vs 弯曲),地理分布限于东南部(vs 南部)。本文讨论了本种的系统定位及其与同属植物的形态学关系,并提供了野外照片、插图、分布图、初步保护状况和分类注释。
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
