Fatty Acid Composition of Heliotropium Species (Boraginaceae): A First Chemical Report on the New Species H. Thermophilum

Heliotropium (Boraginaceae) in the Marquesas Islands (French Polynesia) with description of a new species

During the preparation of the Vascular Flora of the Marquesas Islands a new endemic species of Heliotropium L. (Boraginaceae) has come to light and is described herein: Heliotropiumperlmanii Lorence & W. L. Wagner. It is known only from the island of Eiao and appears most closely related to Heliotropiummarchionicum Decne., also endemic to the Marquesas and known from Nuku Hiva. An amended descr...

Volatile Fatty Acids and Fatty Acid Composition of Silage Species

In this study, total fatty acid composition and volatile fatty acid of silage species in Turkey was determined by using Gas Chromatography (Shimadzu 15-A). Total lipids were extracted from the corn silage, alfalfa silage and figüre silage samples by the method of Folch et al. Silage species were a total of 15 different fatty acids. These fatty acids between C12 to C24 have changed. Unsaturated ...

SYSTEMATICS, MORFOLOGY AND PHYSIOLOGY South American Haplothrips Species (Thysanoptera: Phlaeothripidae), with a New Species of Biological Control Interest to Australia against Weedy Heliotropium amplexicaule (Boraginaceae)

A new species, Haplothrips heliotropica, is described from Argentina causing severe damage to the leaves of Heliotropium amplexicaule (Boraginaceae), a South American plant that is now a serious weed of pastures in Australia. Observations are presented on the host specificity, seasonal population changes and overwintering of this thrips. The genus Haplothrips includes more than 230 species worl...

Onosma anatolica, a new species of Boraginaceae from Turkey

Onosma anatolica Binzet, is described and illustrated as a new species from Niğde province in southern Anatolia, Turkey. It belongs to sect. Onosma L. subsect. Asterotricha (Boiss.) Gürke. The new species is closely related to Onosma subulifolia Riedl from which it is distinguished. Onosma anatolica is readily distinguished from Onosma subulifolia by its sterile shoots, the green-grey stem indu...
