Abstract

Peruzzi, L. & Cesca, G.: Chromosome numbers of flowering plants from Calabria, S Italy, II. — Willdenowia 34: 353–360. — ISSN 0511–9618; © 2004 BGBM Berlin-Dahlem.Chromosome numbers of nine taxa from nine families of Calabrian angiosperms are reported: Aizoonhispanicum 2n = 32, Aristida adscensionis subsp. coerulescens 2n = 22, Galium palaeoitalicum 2n = 20, Lavandula multifida 2n = 22, Ludwigia palustris 2n = 16, Menyanthes trifoliata 2n = 54, Ranunculus fontanus 2n = 48, Salsola oppositifolia 2n = 72, Soldanella calabrella 2n = 40. The reports for Aizoon hispanicum, Aristida adscensionis subsp. coerulescens, Lavandula multifida and Salsola oppositifolia are the first from Italian populations. Mitotic metaphase microphotographs and drawings are presented for all taxa studied. Brief comments are given on karyotype morphology, cytogeography and relationships of selected taxa.
