Two new species of forget-me-nots ( Myosotis, Boraginaceae) from New Zealand
نویسنده
چکیده
Two new species of forget-me-nots, Myosotis chaffeyorum C.A.Lehnebach sp. nov. and Myosotis mooreana C.A.Lehnebach sp. nov. are described and illustrated. These species are endemic to New Zealand and restricted to the mountains of north-west Nelson (South Island). Both species are uncommon and Myosotis mooreana is known from the type locality only. Their conservation status is rated as "Nationally Critical". A table listing differences between these two new species and other similar species and an identification key are provided.

PREMISE OF THE STUDY Microsatellite loci were developed as polymorphic markers for the New Zealand endemic Myosotis pygmaea species group (Boraginaceae) for use in species delimitation and population and conservation genetic studies. METHODS AND RESULTS Illumina MiSeq sequencing was performed on genomic DNA from seedlings of M. drucei. From trimmed paired-end sequences >400 bp, 484 microsatel...

متن کاملIdentification of Myosotis seeds by means of digital image analysis
Despite their name, the identification of seeds of Myosotis species (forget-me-not) has hitherto received little attention from archaeobotanists. In an attempt to assemble a collection of reliable identification criteria, digital image analysis was applied to photographs of Myosotis seeds by means of Fovea Pro 4.0. This program computes 23 features that describe the size and shape of the seeds ...

متن کاملMultiple origins for Hound's tongues (Cynoglossum L.) and Navel seeds (Omphalodes Mill.)--the phylogeny of the borage family (Boraginaceae s.str.).
Recent studies all indicated that both the affinities and subdivision of Boraginaceae s.str. are unsatisfactorily resolved. Major open issues are the placement and affinities of Boraginaceae s.str. in Boraginales and the major clades of the family, with especially the large tribes Cynoglosseae and Eritrichieae repeatedly retrieved as non-monophyletic groups, and the doubtful monophyly of severa...
