中国菊科菊苣族一些属的分类研究

 The Present paper is a preliminary result of study on three genera,Dubyaea, Syncalathium and Soroseris of the tribe Lactuceae (Compositae) in China.The genus Dubyaea in China so far known consists of 14 species,  of whichsix are described here as new:  D. pteroponda Shih,  D.  lanceolate Shih,  D.muliensis Shih, D. panduriformis Shih, D. cymiformis Shih and D. jinyangensisShih. In addition, one new combination, i.e.D. bhotanica (Hutch.) Shih, ismade.     There are six species in the genus Syncalathium in Chinese flora, of which onespecies is described here as new. This is S. orbiculariforme Shih. A new combina-tion, S. pilosum (Hand.-Mazz.) Shih, is made in the paper.     The genus Soroseris comprises nine species, of which three are described hereas new, S. teres Shih, S. chrysocephala Shih and S. qinghaiensis Shih. Three newcombinations, i.e.S. trichocarpa (Franch.) Shih, S. hirsuta (Anth.) Shih, and S.erysimoides (Hand.-Mazz.) Shih are made in the present paper.

菊科福王草属的分类界限及中国菊科植物一新属——紫菊属

After having examined all specimens of the genus Prenanthes L. of Compositae inthe Herbarium of Institute of Botany, Academia Sinica, I find that the classic concept on thegenus Prenanthes established by G. Bentham in 1873 has not been held exactly by some of Euro-pean, American, Japanese and Chinese botanists. For example, W. B. Hemsley, S. T. Dunn, A.Franchet, S. Kitamura and C. C. Chang placed plants from China which belong to other groupsinto the genus; I also find that the classic concept of the genus is not clear.  The present papermakes a revision not only on the classic concept of the genus, but also on its concept assumed bythe above-mentionded botanists.     With the combination of numerous (25-35), white or yellow ligular florets, numerous ribsof achenes, Prenanthes alba L. (Nabalus albus (L.) Shih, comb. nov.) is distinctly differentfrom Prenanthes purpurea L., which has the combination of purple, few (5-15) ligular flo-rests and few ribs of achenes.  Nabalus Cass., as a genus established early (1825) by H. Cassini,should be restored.  It is not reasonable to treat Nabalus as a subgenus (E. B. Babcock et al.1947) or a section (S. Kitamura, 1956) or as a synonym (G. Bentham, 1983) of the genusPreanathes L.      The present author recognizes seven species in the new revised genus  Prenanthes L.  inChina, 4 of which are described as new.  In the genus Nabalus Cass.  only one species, N.ochroleuca Maxim., is distributed in Northeast China.      As Lactuca melanantha Franch. (1895), Prenanthes henryi Dunn (1903), P. glandulosaDunn (1903), Lactuca triflora Hemsl. (1888) (it was transferred to Prenanthes L. by C. C.Chang in 1934), Prenanthes formosana Kitam. (1934) and P. wilsoni Chang (1934) all havecampanulate involucres, purple phyllaries, purple dorsi-ventrally compressed achenes, longitu-dinal rids 6-9 on each side of achene truncate and beakless at its apex and pilose tubes of co-rollae, they should be placed neither into the genus Prenanthes with obtusely tri-or pentagonous,subterete achenes and glabrous tubes of corollae, nor into the genus Lactuca with beak achenes.Besides the above-mentioned species misnamed by some of foreign and Chinese botanists, 6 otherspecies also have the same structure in achenes and corollae.  Evidently, they fall into a newgenus with the name Notoseris Shih.      The new genus Notoseris Shih of the tribe Lactuceae of Compositae seems to be more re-miniscent of Lactuca L. than of Prenanthes L. emend.      All the 12 species of the genus Notoseris Shih are endemic to China and distributed in thearea of south of Yantze River. Of them 6 are new combinations and 6 are described as new.     

中国菊科鸦葱属植物分类研究

 About 22 species of the genus Scorzonera L. are so far known to occur in China.Among them, S. pamirica Shih is described as new and 3 species, S. tau-sahyz Lipsch. et Bosse,S. pubescens DC. and S. transiliensis M. Pop., are new records to China.  Four names in theliterature are reduced to synonyms,and some wrong identications in Chinese botanical literatureare pointed out in this work.  Some species with considerable variation in morphology, such as,S. pseudodivaricata Lipsch. and S. sinensis Lipsch. ex Krasch., are also discussed here.

中国菊科菜蓟族植物研究(II)(续)

Since the 19th century many botanists have studied the Chinese Cirsiumand a great number of taxa or names has been reported,  of which many still need to bereviewed critically       This work is a preliminaxy result of study on Chinese species of Cirsium.  As manyas 65 taxan or names in the literature are reduced to synonym in this paper.  The Cir-sium in China so far known comprises 49 species,  of which 9 are described as new,  1 isa new combination and 4 are new records in Chinese flora.   These new species are: C.subulariforme Shih,  S. muliense Shih,  C. fanjingshanense Shih,  C. periacanthaceum Shih, C. racemiforme Ling et Shih,  C. vernonioides Shih,  C. chrysolepis Shih,  C. tenuifoliumShih and the new combination is C. viridifolium (Hand. -Mazz.) Shih. The new recordsin China are C. serratuloides (L.) Hill.,  C. incanum (S. G. Gmel.) Fisch. ex MB.,  C. la-natum (Roxb. ex Willd.) Spreng and C. alatum (S. G. Gmel) Bobr.      The Chinese Cirsium is divided into 8 sections in the present paper,  of which 3 arenew,  namely,  Sect.  Isolepis Shih,  Sect. Tricholepis Shilh and Sect. Hymenolepis Shih, and I is a new combination,  namely,  Sect. Spanioptilon (Cass.) Shih.      In addition,  a new species of the genus Alfredia,  A. aspera Slih,  is described.
