    Keywords: Angiosperms ; Loranthaceae ; Desmaria mutabilis. — Shoot dimorphism ; bud scales ; deciduousness ; heterocotyly ; parasitism

    Notes: Abstract Desmaria mutabilis is unique inLoranthaceae in having dimorphic shoots, the short shoots producing a terminal inflorescence. Other unusual features in the family are well differentiated bud scales and deciduousness. The normal position of mature plants on the trunks of large trees is shown to be a consequence of profuse vegetative reproduction from the epicortical roots, the predominant growth direction of the latter towards the trunk from the original site of establishment on a lateral branch, and the ability of epicortical roots to generate haustorial contacts through heavy host bark. The seedling is heterocotylar, one cotyledon being phanerocotylar, the other cryptocotylar and functioning as a haustorial organ in the endosperm. It is suggested thatDesmaria is a member of the primitive complex of loranthaceous genera which includesGaiadendron.

    A rejoinder onOryctina (Loranthaceae) (1981)
    Springer
    Plant systematics and evolution 137 (1981), S. 215-219 
    Details
    ISSN: 1615-6110
    Keywords: Loranthaceae ; Oryctina scabrida ; Oryctina subaphylla ; Monoeciousness ; bracteoles
    Source: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000
    Topics: Biology
    Notes: Abstract Both of the two main generic features ofOryctina (Loranthaceae), i.e., its dioeciousness and its absence of floral bracteoles, are based on misinterpretations. Instead, both species appear to be monoecious, and both are bracteolate. Nevertheless,Oryctina should be maintained as a distinct genus, probably most closely related toMaracanthus.

    A revision of Dendrophthora (Loranthaceae) (1961)
    In:  Mededelingen van het Botanisch Museum en Herbarium van de Rijksuniversiteit te Utrecht (2352-5754) vol.176 (1961) nr.1 p.1

    Description: There comes a time in the history of nearly every genus when it becomes almost immoral to add new species without first having surveyed the genus as a whole. Dendrophthora has reached this state. From the time of its first recognition as a separate entity to the present, new species have been described, often on very tenuous grounds, and usually without an indication of infrageneric relationships, until today we are faced with a staggering mass of specific epithets in complete chaos. The genus has not been comprehensively studied for more than half a century, and no balanced attempt has as yet been made to establish natural divisions within. Having become interested in the morphology of this and the related genus Phoradendron (KUIJT, 1959), I was naturally led on to some taxonomic considerations. My stay in Europe in 1958-1959 enabled me to visit the major European herbaria, and the notes and sketches accumulated there soon pointed the way to the present work.

    A study of Heterophylly and Inflorescence structure in Dendrophthora and Phoradendron (Loranthaceae) (1959)
    In:  Mededelingen van het Botanisch Museum en Herbarium van de Rijksuniversiteit te Utrecht (2352-5754) vol.160 (1959) nr.1 p.506

    Publication Date: 2015-05-08
    Description: Heterophylly is frequent in Dendrophthora and Phoradendron, and may take many forms. The concepts prophyll, cataphyll, and scale-leaf are briefly discussed and defined as to usage in the Phoradendreae. Various morphological details of patterns of heterophylly, flower orientation and seriation, fusion of prophylls, phyllotaxy, sex distribution and inflorescence position are traced as far as the available material permits. A typology of inflorescences in these two genera is proposed, based on flower seriation. Anatomical observations on a few species of both genera have revealed striking and unsuspected structural differences between the inflorescences of some seemingly related species, but also similarities which cross the intergeneric boundary. The discovery of “extra-stelar” vascular proliferations in some species of both genera is of particular interest.

    A note on Heterophylly and Branching patterns in the Amyema complex (Loranthaceae) (1980)
    In:  Blumea - Biodiversity, Evolution and Biogeography of Plants (0006-5196) vol.26 (1980) nr.2 p.403
    Details
    Publication Date: 2015-03-06
    Description: Attention is drawn to the unusual distribution of flowers and inflorescences in a number of species, and to certain peculiarities of branching and phyllotaxy. The latter are explained by a heterophylly which so far has escaped notice, involving the formation and early disappearance of a pair of minute intercalary cataphylls. A similar branching pattern and flower distribution is evident in Helicanthes.

    Inflorescence morphology of Loranthaceae – an evolutionary synthesis (1981)
    In:  Blumea - Biodiversity, Evolution and Biogeography of Plants (0006-5196) vol.27 (1981) nr.1 p.1

    Description: A systematized survey of inflorescence structure is presented of Loranthaceae, s.s., on a world-wide basis, starting with New World taxa and continuing with Old World ones. In each case, material is arranged to reflect a presumed evolutionary sequence. This sequence uses as its starting point the solitary sessile flower subtended by a foliage leaf, leading to the evolution of a determinate inflorescence with ebracteolate lateral monads, and eventually to indeterminate inflorescence types successively bearing ebracteolate and bracteolate lateral monads and, in many groups, eventually triads. Various trends in condensation to umbels and capitula have emerged occasionally, as well as other reductional phenomena and other modifications. The unit inflorescence of Loranthaceae is thus regarded as a fundamentally axillary structure, and not a modified leafy branch.
