Aframomum sericeum may be recognised in the field by its large leaves with erect hairs on the lamina and midrib below, dark red corolla and large, ridged fruits. In the herbarium additional useful characters for identification include free strands of hypodermal sclerenchyma cells (Lock & Hall 1975) which can be observed using a ×10 lens on air-dried leaves, and transverse ridging of the leaf sheath. There is some variability in vegetative characters within A. sericeum: occasionally the transverse ridges on the leaf sheath are absent and some specimens (e.g. Tutin 5 and Rogers 151), have almost sessile young leaves. The midrib can also become glabrous towards the base of the leaf with age.Published as part of Dhetchuvi, Jean-Baptiste, Wortley, Alexandra H. & Harris, David J., 2011, A new species of Aframomum (Zingiberaceae) from Central Africa, pp. 31-34 in Phytotaxa 28 on pages 31-33, DOI: 10.11646/phytotaxa.28.1.4, http://zenodo.org/record/489425

Introducing the David Mitchell special edition of C21 Literature
No full textRose Harris-Birtill introduces the David Mitchell special edition of C21 Literature: Journal of 21st-century Writings. Harris-Birtill provides a critical introduction to David Mitchell’s complete works, before discussing her experiences as organiser of the international David Mitchell Conference 2017, held at the University of St Andrews on 3rd June 2017, and its relationship to the special edition. Highlighting the dominance of David Mitchell’s novel Cloud Atlas in both Mitchell’s UK book sales and across current literary criticism to date, Harris-Birtill introduces the articles in the special edition, summarising the contributions of each essay. Drawing on the conference discussion, and the decision to include the author in the event, Harris-Birtill argues for the importance of openly discussing the scholarly issues and rewards of working with living authors in the field of contemporary literature.Non peer reviewe
