    Notes: Summary Serum levels of IgG, IgA and IgM rheumatoid factor (IgG RF, IgA RF and IgM RF) were determined by means of the diffusion-in-gel enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (DIG-ELISA) in 42 Waaler-Rose negative patients with psoriatic arthropathy (PsA) type 1 (arthritis with involvement of distal interphalangeal joints) and type 3 (polyarthritis of rheumatoid type) according to the criteria of Moll and Wright as well as in 53 patients with Waaler-Rose negative rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Elevated levels of RF were found in 22% of patients with PsA type 3 and 45% of patients with Waaler-Rose negative RA. In contrast, none of the patients with PsA type 1 had detectable amounts of RF. It is suggested that the presence of IgG, IgA or IgM RF in patients having psoriasis in conjunction with inflammatory polyarthritis indicates the RA nature of the joint disease and should be considered as exclusion criterion for the diagnosis of PsA.

    Notes: Abstract In a primary forest on the Central Plateau of MadagascarPlectranthus vestitus (Lamiaceae) was principally pollinated by the beePachymelus limbatus (Hymenoptera, Anthophoridae). A species ofStylogaster (Diptera, Conopidae) acted as a co-pollinator. Flower — pollinator interactions are described. The bee performed pollination while hovering, a flower-visit lasting onlyc. 0.3 seconds. Floral features such as shape and size of the corolla tube, and the lack of a landing place suggest specialization to hovering anthophorid beepollinators. Floral biology and pollination in the genusPlectranthus are discussed.

    Notes: Abstract The pollination biology ofIxora platythyrsa (Rubiaceae) was studied in NW. Madagascar. The plant displayed cream-yellow, nocturnally fragrant, nectariferous, tubular and strongly protandrous flowers. These had an “ixoroid” secondary pollen presentation mechanism: prior to anthesis, anthers exhausted their pollen onto unripe stylar heads. From this position pollen of male-stage flowers later adhered to primarily the probosces of small visiting nocturnal noctuid and geometrid moths. — Pollen was subsequently raked off moths' probosces by receptive, copiously papillose stigmas of female-stage flowers. Principal pollination adaptation was probably to the noctuid moth subfam.Sarrothripinae.
