    Sistemática de heterocondylus R.M. King & H. Rob. (Eupatorieae, Asteraceae)

    No full text
    Heterocondylus R.M. King & H. Rob. belongs to the subtribe Ayapaninae R.M. King & H. Rob., from Eupatorieae Cass. (Asteraceae), and was described from a group of species from Eupatorium L. with slightly distorted carpopodium, with cell walls distinctly thickened, and an enlarged and variably hairy style base. Its heterogeneous morphology as well as the similarity of some of its species with Campuloclinium DC. (from the subtribe Gyptidinae R.M. King & H. Rob.) raise doubts about their monophyly and phylogenetic relationships with the rest of Ayapaninae. Furthermore, the presence of various taxonomic and nomenclatural problems and the presence of species complexes show the need of a taxonomic study to Heterocondylus. Thus, in order to address these issues, we performed cladistic analyses with evidence of DNA (ITS and trnLF) and morphological characters, and with the combination of these datasets. Also a morphometric study with two species complexes and the taxonomic treatment were accomplished to the genus. We found that all the phylogenetic inferences revealed a non monophyletic Heterocondylus. The morphological characters used to circumscribe the genus were not sufficient to group its species. Heterocondylus will be a natural group with the inclusion of Alomiella R.M. King & H. Rob., Ayapanopsis R.M. King & H. Rob. and Monogereion G.M. Barroso & R.M. King or with the description of a new genus to include part of Heterocondylus species. We reduced the 14 species previously accepted for Heterocondylus to seven in the present study. Eupatorium semiamplexifolium G.S.S. Almeida & Carv.-Okano and H. itacolumiensis (Sch. Bip. ex Baker) R.M. King & H. Rob. were synonymized under H. alatus (Vell.) R.M. King & H. Rob., based on the morphometric study of the three species. Also based on morphometric studies, H. inesiae R. Esteves, H. jaraguensis (B.L. Rob.) R.M. King & H. Rob. and H. reitzii R.M. King & H. Rob. were synonymized under H. pumilus (Gardner) R.M. King & H. Rob. The synonymy of H. pandurifolius (Baker) R.M. King & H. Rob. under H. amphidictyus (DC.) R.M. King & H. Rob., and H. grandis (Sch. Bip. ex Baker) R.M. King & H. Rob. and Heterocondylus leptolepis (Baker) R.M. King & H. Rob. under H. decipiens (Baker) R.M. King & H. Rob. were done based on examination of specimens of the species. In addition, descriptions of H. lysimachioides (Chod.) R.M. King & H. Rob., H. macrocephalus H. Rob. and H. vitalbae (DC.) R.M. King & H. Rob. are presented. Identification key, illustrations, photographs and distribution maps for the species of Heterocondylus are presented.Heterocondylus R.M. King & H. Rob. pertence à subtribo Ayapaninae R.M. King & H. Rob., de Eupatorieae Cass. (Asteraceae), e foi descrito para abrigar um conjunto de espécies segregadas de Eupatorium L. com carpopódio levemente distorcido, de paredes celulares bastante espessas e a base do estilete alargada e variavelmente pilosa. Entretanto, sua morfologia heterogênea assim como a semelhança de algumas de suas espécies com Campuloclinium DC. (pertencente à subtribo Gyptidinae R.M. King & H. Rob.) suscitam dúvidas a respeito de seu monofiletismo e proximidade filogenética com as demais Ayapaninae. Além disso, a presença de vários problemas nomenclaturais e taxonômicos e de complexos de espécies demonstram a necessidade de um tratamento taxonômico para Heterocondylus. Visando a resolução destas questões, foram realizadas análises cladísticas com dados morfológicos e moleculares (ITS e trnLF), e também um estudo morfométrico com dois complexos de espécies e o tratamento taxonômico do gênero. Em todas as inferências filogenéticas realizadas, Heterocondylus emerge como um grupo não monofilético. As características morfológicas utilizadas para a circunscrição do gênero não foram suficientes para agrupar suas espécies. Para que Heterocondylus venha a ser um grupo natural, é necessário incluir os gêneros Alomiella R.M. King & H. Rob., Ayapanopsis R.M. King & H. Rob. e Monogereion G.M. Barroso & R.M. King neste ou descrever um novo gênero para incluir parte de suas espécies. As 14 espécies inicialmente aceitas para Heterocondylus foram reduzidas para sete no presente estudo. Eupatorium semiamplexifolium G.S.S. Almeida & Carv.-Okano e H. itacolumiensis (Sch. Bip. ex Baker) R.M. King & H. Rob. foram sinonimizadas sob H. alatus (Vell.) R.M. King & H. Rob., com base no estudo morfométrico de exemplares das três espécies. Ainda com base nos estudos morfométricos, H. inesiae R. Esteves, H. jaraguensis (B.L. Rob.) R.M. King & H. Rob. e H. reitzii R.M. King & H. Rob. foram sinonimizadas sob H. pumilus (Gardner) R.M. King & H. Rob. Ainda foi feita a sinonímia de H. pandurifolius (Baker) R.M. King & H. Rob. sob H. amphidictyus (DC.) R.M. King & H. Rob., e de H. grandis (Sch. Bip. ex Baker) R.M. King & H. Rob. e Heterocondylus leptolepis (Baker) R.M. King & H. Rob. sob H. decipiens (Baker) R.M. King & H. Rob., com base no exame dos exemplares das espécies. Além destas espécies, são apresentadas as descrições de H. lysimachioides (Chod.) R.M. King & H. Rob., H. macrocephalus H. Rob. e H. vitalbae (DC.) R.M. King & H. Rob. O trabalho também contém chave de identificação, ilustrações, fotos e mapas de distribuição para as espécies de Heterocondylus

    Rob and Bert in Tokyo

    No full text
    This essay is steeped in contradiction: it is as much an attempt at mourning, coping, and letting go as it is an exercise in remembrance, rediscovery, and reconnection. One of the many areas of international legal scholarship where Rob Cryer left his mark is his oeuvre on the International Military Tribunal for the Far East (IMTFE). To pay tribute to, and get re-acquainted with, Rob-the-person, I re-read his 2010 article on the ‘dignified dissenter’ in Tokyo, Dutch Judge Bert Röling. In that article, Rob uses the memoranda and the opinion of Bert-the-judge to assess his conceptual and legal contributions to the IMTFE judgment. They also serve him as a vehicle to get a better grasp of the author behind the text and the values and dilemmas that shaped Röling’s positions on the IMTFE bench. What more can we learn and understand about Rob Cryer while ‘reading Rob reading Bert’? What aspects of Röling’s legacy did he choose to foreground, and what qualities did he appreciate most? How did Rob treat his character when shedding light on the more contentious elements of Röling’s work? Even if this essay fails in its therapeutic purpose, it might still add a few mosaic pieces to the collective construction of Rob’s portrait in this volume
