    Notes: Abstract The systematics of theGlaucescentes Carl, a poorly known neotropical section of the large genusPlagiochila, is revised based on a large set of gametophytic, sporophytic and chemical characters. Three species are recognized,P. buchtiniana Steph.,P. longispina Lindenb. and Gottsche andP. diversifolia Lindenb. and Gottsche, the latter with two chemotypes. Twelve binomina are reduced to synonymy. The species occur in montane regions of tropical America, especially in the northern and central Andes. In addition,P. longispina is newly reported from the Azores, where it was previously known asP. allorgei Herzog and Perss. TheGlaucescentes are excellently characterized by morphological and chemical features and are clearly separated from theContiguae Carl, a group often confused with theGlaucescentes. Morphologically, theGlaucescentes stand apart by the brown oil bodies, thinwalled inner capsule wall cells and partly unequally bispiral elaters. Chemically, they are characterized by the accumulation of partially hydrogenated bibenzylderivatives (longispinone, longispinol), 3-benzylphthalides and various flavonoids, and by the low production of terpenoids.

    Notes: Abstract A scanning electron microscope study of 81 species of Plagiochilaceae revealed the presence of superficial waxes on the leaves and stems ofPlagiochilion mayebarae and 5 species ofPlagiochila. The waxes are not visible in the light microscope and were unknown in Plagiochilaceae.Plagiochila fuscolutea andP. longiramea (=P. sect.Fuscoluteae) are characterised by the predominant occurrence of membraneous wax platelets;Plagiochila aerea, P. rudischusteri andP. tabinensis(=P. sect.Bursatae) predominately form various types of wax rodlets. Our findings show for the first time the systematic usefulness of leaf surface waxes in the liverworts.P. tabinensis contains surface waxes in amounts of ca. 1.4% dry weight composing of steryl esters, triacylglycerols and free fatty acids.

    Notes: Summary The hydrophilous plant communities of Western Crete described and classified in this paper belong to the following classes: Potametea, Adiantetea, Phragmitetea, Molinio-Juncetea, Juncetea maritimi, Isoeto-Nanojuncetea and Alno-Populetea. Two new alliances and five new associations are described: Brachypodio-Holoschoenion, Dorycnio-Rumicion conglomeratae, Dorycnio-Caricetum otrubae, Dorycnio-Cladietum marisci and Caricetum creticae (all Molinio-Juncetea), Acrocladio-Adiantetum (Adiantetea), and Juncetum subulato-maritimi (Juncetea maritimi).

    Notes: Abstract Recognition of two different species in the liverwort genusMonoclea Hook. (monotypic orderMonocleales), viz.M. forsteri Hook. in New Zealand andM. gottschei Lindb. in the New World, is supported by characteristics of the sporophyte, antheridial receptacle and secondary metabolites.M. gottschei produces the greatest variety of flavonoids and the largest amount of bisbibenzyls ever encountered in a liverwort. In contrast,M. forsteri is poor in secondary metabolites. Two allopatric subspecies are recognized inM. gottschei, based on characteristics of the antheridial receptacle: subsp.gottschei in Chile (Valdivian region, Juan Fernandez Is.) and subsp.elongata Gradst. & Mues, subsp. nova, in tropical America. The exclusive occurrence inMonoclea of glucuronide and galacturonide flavone glycosides and the fact that capsule dehiscence may take place before full elongation of the seta are new arguments in support of the placement ofMonocleales in theMarchantiidae.
