ABSTRACT. Daphniphyllum is the sole genus of the family Daphniphyllaceae consisting of dioecious spe­cies with inconspicuous reduced unisexual mostly caducous flowers. The paucity of helpful taxonomic char­acters from vegetative and reduced reproductive organs has led to difficulties in intrageneric classification and species identification. The pistillate flowers have characters of higher taxonomic value than those of the vegetative organs, staminate flowers and fruits, but pistillate flower information is rarely reported. Here pistil­late flowers of 19 taxa were studied to reveal pistillate floral diversity and major developmental features with a view to intrageneric classification. Four types of stigma shape were recognized: punctiform, reniform, linear and oblong. Daphniphyllum stigmas, except for the punctiform type, elongate variously after an early stage of anthesis. The pistillate flowers of three taxa are asepalus. The calyces of other taxa were categorized into three types, free, cleft and parted, which are consistent within taxa. The existence and persistence of staminodes are diagnostic characters. This study shows that the characteristics of pistillate flowers provide helpful information for identification at the species and even the variety level. Our results do not support the currently accepted two sections, Daphniphyllum and Lunata. Instead, Huang's original intrageneric classification into three sec­tions, Daphniphyllum, Lunata and Staminodia, is supported, but with two species previously in Daphniphyl­lum reassigned to Staminodia.

INTRODUCTION
Daphniphyllum is the sole genus of the family Daphni­phyllaceae distributed from tropical to subtropical Asia. The genus Daphniphyllum was established by Blume (1826), based on the type species, D. glaucescens. Mono­graphic studies on Daphniphyllum have been made by Muller (1869), Rosenthal (1916, 1919) and Huang (1965, 1966). Currently, this genus comprises about 30 species of evergreen trees or shrubs with a distributional range from tropical to subtropical Asia (East Asia, Southeast Asia, and Indian subcontinent), generally between 46°N to 10°S and 75°E to 150°E (Huang, 1965; Kubitzki, 2007).
Intrageneric classification was first proposed by Huru-sawa (Hurusawa, 1942a, b) who divided Daphniphyllum

into two sections, Staminodia and Calycifera, based on four species in Japan (including Taiwan). He distinguished these two sections based on pistillate flower features: section Staminodia with obvious staminodes; section Calycifera with very obscure or trace of staminodes and persistent or deciduous sepals. Huang (1966) described nine species in his monograph of Daphniphyllum, and divided this genus into three sections, namely Daphniphyl-lum, Lunata and Staminodia. More recently, 16 species of Daphniphyllum were described in the Flora of Malesiana by the same author (Huang, 1997). However, he revised his treatment of this genus by dividing it into two sections (Lunata and Daphniphyllum), and relegated the previous section Staminodia to a subsection of section Daphniphyl-lum (Huang, 1996).
The flowers of Daphniphyllum are unisexual (Heywood et al., 2007), wind-pollinated (Fishbein and Soltis, 2004) and inconspicuous. The flowers of all species are arranged into a racemose inflorescence and are often clustered near

the apices (Heywood et al., 2007). Bracts at the base of the inflorescence and the bracteole at the base of the flower are almost ovate to elliptic and deciduous (Huang, 1997). Sepals vary from asepalous, aposepalous to connate calyx (Huang, 1997). Petals are lacking in all cases (apetalous) (Huang, 1997; Kubitzki, 2007). The pistil is normally vase-shaped, and has a bi-lobed stigma connected with a short style on the top of a bulbous ovary.
The characters of pistillate flowers of Daphniphyllum display relative higher taxonomic value than others, in­cluding vegetative features (Croizat and Metcalf, 1941; Huang, 1965; Wang, 1981; Kiew and Rafidah, 2008), staminate flowers or drupes (Croizat and Metcalf, 1941; Huang, 1965), which were traditionally used, but have little taxonomic value. Huang (1997) mentioned the diver­sity of stigma morphology: divaricate, revolute, discoid to circinnate or versatile morphology in species of Daphni-phyllum in the Flora Malesiana. In addition, features of the calyx, such as presence, persistence and serration, have been frequently used for taxonomy for this family by various authors (Rosenthal, 1919; Chien, 1933; Huang, 1966; Kiew and Rafidah, 2008; Ming and Kubitzki, 2008). Huang (1996, 1997) used more characters of the calyx, such as number of calyx lobes and calyx articulation, for the taxonomy of the genus. Rosenthal (1916) distinguished taxa by the relative length of the stigma and ovary. Huang (1966) also utilized this character to differentiate three subspecies from the glaucescens subcomplex of subsec­tion Daphniphyllum. Kiew and Rafidah (2008) combined the features of the infructescence, fruit surface, fruit stalk length and stigma persistence to distinguish three varieties of D. glaucescens.
Although the taxonomic value of pistillate flowers of Daphniphyllum was noted (Hurusawa, 1942a, b; Huang, 1966, 1996; Kiew and Rafidah, 2008), several original papers ignored this character altogether, which resulted in difficulties in species identification (Teijsman, 1864; Hooker, 1890; Chien, 1933). Probably this oversight is due to the fact that the stigma and staminode of Daphni-phyllum are often caducous at an early stage of anthesis in most taxa, leading to extreme underreporting of pis-tillate flower information (M. S. Tang, pers. observ.). It is apparent that the morphology of pistillate flowers of Daphniphyllum needs more careful observation. Here, we present a comprehensive comparative study of pistillate flowers, documenting major developmental traits (such as elongation after anthesis, persistence or caducousness) of Daphniphyllum, and floral traits to serve as taxonomic characters. These data are informative to the classification of this poorly understood family.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
A diagram with 34 described taxa of Daphniphyllum (Huang, 1965, 1996; Hatusima, 1971; Ming and Kubitzki, 2008; Kiew and Rafidah, 2008) following Huang's in-trageneric classification (Huang, 1996) is displayed as
Figure 1. In this study, we sampled 19 taxa of Daphniphyl-lum (Figure 1, in bold) during 2006 to 2012, in which two species represented the section Lunata, and 14 species and three varieties represented the section Daphniphyllum. The sources of pistillate flowers included both fresh materials and herbarium specimens (Appendix 1). The fresh materi­als of seven taxa were collected in the field or obtained from botanical gardens in China, Indonesia, Japan, Malay­sia, Philippines and Taiwan (Appendix 1, in parentheses after the species name). The fresh pistillate flower mate­rials (c. 30 samples) include flower buds and flowers at various stages from 3 individuals from each of five popu­lations of native Taiwan taxa. Due to the difficulty of ob­taining materials of pistillate flowers of non-Taiwan taxa, for some of these taxa only one individual was sampled. Voucher specimens were deposited at the Herbarium of the Department of Biological Sciences, National Sun Yat-sen University (SYSU). Herbarium specimens at BM, BO, CDBI, HAST, IBSC, K, KEP, KUN, L, MEL, NTUF, PE, PNH, PPI, PYU, SING, SNP, SZ, TAI, TAIF, TI, TNM and TNS were examined and photographed (Appendix 1, fol­lowing its species name).
Fresh materials were fixed in FPGA (formalin: propi­onic acid: glycerol: 95% ethanol: distilled water=5: 5: 15: 35: 40 in volume) in the field for observation. After fixation, they were examined with a Zeiss Stemi SV11 stereoscope and photographed with a Nikon D70s digital camera. They were also directly mounted on stubs and ob­served with a Hitachi TM-1000 Tabletop microscope. For herbarium specimens, pistillate flowers were photographed with a Nikon CoolPix 5700 or D70s digital camera.
RESULTS
The characters (including style, stigma, staminode and calyx) of pistillate flowers of 19 studied taxa of the genus Daphniphyllum are summarized in Table 1 follow­ing Huang's intrageneric classification (Huang, 1996). To clearly describe stigma and style of a pisllate flower of Daphniphyllum, here we define and distinguish these structures by their cell types. The stigma observed from fresh material is composed of colliculose epidermal cells located on the adaxial surface of the top of the pistil, while the epidermal cells of the style and the ovary of the pistil are flat and elongated, with occasional stomata (Figure 2A). Because the stigma of Daphniphyllum is bi-lobed connected with a short style, the segment of the pistil with colliculose epidermal cells above the fork is defined to be the stigma in this study. The style is the tissue between the ovary and the fork. Based on these results, the characters of the stigma, calyx and the staminode of pistillate flowers can serve as aids for classification (Figures 2-3).
Stigma
Based on our investigation, the features of stigmas at an early stage of anthesis, i.e. before the stigma is mature (before the cells become colliculose in form) or before the

bracteole is lost, are stable in all studied taxa. At this early stage, four types of stigma can be differentiated (Table 1): punctiform (Figure 3A-B), reniform (Figure 3C-G), linear (stigma length longer than the ovary length) (Figure 3H-J), and oblong (stigma length about 2/3 shorter than the ovary length) (Figure 3K-P). Stigmas of the latter three types will elongate after an early stage of anthesis, but only those of the punctiform type are unchanged. However, the stigma elongation tendency varies between these three types. Ob­long stigmas strongly elongate to become longer than the ovary, and become distinctly bent (Figure 3M, O, P), re­sulting in a shape resembling a linear stigma. In addition,
reniform and oblong stigmas expand after an early stage of anthesis. Reniform stigmas show a higher tendency for expansion after anthesis than oblong stigmas. Because of such elongation and expansion, reniform stigmas gradually flatten, elongate and slightly bend after anthesis.
Among the various types of stigma, only linear stigmas can either persist or drop off after anthesis. Stigmas of the other three types are always persistent. Two taxa (D. an-gustifolium and D. glaucescens var. blumeanum), with lin­ear stigmas, were observed to have an articulation appear at the base of the styles at an early stage of anthesis due to the presence of an abscission zone in the base of the style.
512
Botanical Studies, Vol. 53, 2012
This caducous stigma in these two taxa often leaves a flat trace on the top of the style in specimens.
Style
Styles in the genus Daphniphyllum are absent or short. The two species of section Lunata, D. calycinum and D. laurinum have absent or short styles (Figure 3A-B). The pistillate flowers of other studied taxa have short styles.
Style length may vary in the same taxon. Therefore, the style length is not helpful for classification in Daphniphyl-lum.
Staminode
There are five to 12 staminodes in a pistillate flower of some taxa of Daphniphyllum, but this number is not generally stable at the individual level and so has little taxonomic value. Based on observation of fresh material in four taxa studied, the staminodes of Daphniphyllum are spoon-shaped (D. glaucescens var. blumeanum), scale-like (D. borneense, Figure 2B), or cylindrical (D. macropodum var. macropodum and D. macropodum var. humile, Figure 2C). The length of staminodes varies in a pistillate flower, which indicates that this feature is not useful for species differentiation. These staminodes appear as scale-like structures of various sizes in desiccated specimens (Figure 3H, M, N).
Staminodes were found consistently in 11 taxa. Only two taxa of section Lunata and five taxa of section Daphn-iphyllum have no staminodes (Table 1). If present, the staminode inserts around the base of an ovary, in which it often occurs intracalycinely. The presence of staminodes in a pistillate flower of Daphniphyllum is stable at the spe­cies level, except in D. macropodum var. macropodum. The pistillate flower of D. macropodum var. macropodum in Japan and China consistently produces staminodes (Fig­ure 2C). However, flowers of this taxon in Taiwan may or may not have staminodes (Figure 2D).
The staminodes are caducous in all studied taxa, except D. macropodum (including the two varieties). The cadu­cous staminode leaves a round scar at the base of the ova­ry. Careful examination is needed to observe this feature, especially in herbarium specimens. However, the presence of staminodes has potential as a taxonomic character.
Calyx
Most of the studied taxa have a calyx. Only three taxa, D. angustifolium, D. longeracemosum and D. macropo-dum var. humile are constantly asepalous. According to the degree of connection of calyx lobes, three calyx types are recognized: free, parted and cleft. This feature is consistent within a species, but the shape and serration of calyx lobes vary intraspecifically.
The free type is found in D. buchananiifolium and D. woodsonianum. It is aposepalous with 2 or 3 sepals and is always lost in early anthesis (Table 1). Eleven studied taxa have a parted calyx. It consists of 4-8 valvate or im­bricate sepals slightly connate at the base and is often lost by anthesis. This parted calyx can be further differentiated into three forms by the length of the calyx lobe: disciform, oblong and linear. The disciform lobe is shorter than 1/3 of the ovary (D. paxianum); the linear lobe is longer than the ovary (D. gracile); the oblong lobe is longer than 1/2 of the ovary, and shorter than the ovary (10 taxa). The cleft type has 4-6 sepals connate at 1/3 to I/2 of the sepal length, forming a calyx tube and often persistent in mature fruit.

DISCUSSION
This study is the first comprehensive report on pistil­late flowers of the Daphniphyllaceae including the major developmental events. Of most significance is information
on the varying degree of sti gma elongation afteranthesis in itpee m^pes of stihma. This informationmeans that stig­ma type can only be used as a taxonomic character before early anthesis of a pistillate flower, when the calyx has just opened. This study also shows that persistence of stigma and staminode have taxonomic value. The diverse and in­formative pistillate flowers revealed here provide helpful characters for taxonomy.
Four stigma types with high taxonomic value were rec­ognized in this study. These characters facilitate differen­tiating taxa at the species level or even the variety level.

For example, two varieties of D. oldhamii present differ­ent types of stigmas: the oblong type in var. oldhamii and the reniform type in var. lanyuense. Although the shape of the leaf apex and fruit size have been used to differen­tiate these two varieties (Huang, 1992), in fact, these fea­tures often vary between populations or are influenced by the environment. In contrast, stigma type can distinguish them reliably.
In addition, persistence of the stigma can serve as an aid to differentiate varieties. Careful observation is needed to apply this feature. According to our observations, the top surface of a caducous stigma usually leaves a smooth and clear flat trace, while that of a broken stigma often dis­plays a rough and irregular trace. Thus, we can distinguish a caducous stigma scar from a damaged stigma scar, which might be due to the process of specimen pressing or col­lecting. Kiew and Rafidah (2008) compared pistillate flow­ers of three varieties of D. glaucescens (var. blumeanum,
var. glaucescens and var. lancifolium). They reported that two of these varieties (var. glaucescens and var. blumea-num of D. glaucescens) have caducous stigmas. These two varieties were examined in this study. However, our assessment is that only one of these two varieties has ca­ducous stigma (var. blumeanum). We found that the stigma trace of D. glaucescens var. glaucescens in all studied speciments was rough and irregular with stigma residue of various lengths, indicating a damaged stigma. Thus, the stigma of D. glaucescens var. glaucescens is not caducous.
The linear, reniform and oblong types of stigma are only stable at early anthesis, because the stigma elongates, bends or forms an articulation, after early anthesis. After that stage, all of three types of stigmas display very similar morphology. Usually, they appear column-like, slightly revolute, in the investigated specimens. This character change leads to misidentification of taxa by some authors. Previously the identification of four species (D. glauce-

scens, D. neilgherrense, D. oldhamii and D. teijsmannii) was confused by many authors (Hooker, 1890; Hayata, 1904; Chien, 1933; Hurusawa, 1942b), because these species are similar in vegetative characters and have an elongating stigma. However, this study shows that the ap­plication of stigma types and the presence of staminodes can successfully differentiate these taxa. Additionally, Huang (1965) described D. himalaense subsp. angustifoli-um (currently D. angustifolium) with a short discoid style, which was the same as the punctiform stigma of section Lunata. According to our observation, D. angustifolium actually has a short style with a conspicuous, erect and linear stigma, but the stigma is caducous by forming an abscission zone near the base of the style at early anthesis.
The staminodes in the pistillate flowers had been inter­preted as glands by a few authors, such as Muller (1869), Baillon (1858) and Hooker (1890). However, Rosenthal (1919), in his monograph, argued that these glands actu-ally are staminodes and only occur in three species (D. celebense, D. himalayense and D. macropodum). Decraene and Smets (2001) said "trying to recognize staminodes or any other structures surrounding the ovary, if no structural evidence of their homology with stamens exists, is sense-less." Since there is no study on staminodes of Daphni-phyllum with from ontogenetic point of view, a further developmental study is needed. Here, we tentatively accept these structures as staminodes according to their shape and location. Regardless of their true nature, this study shows that they do have taxonomic value.
All the taxa distributed in Southeast Asia of subsec­tion Daphniphyllum have caducous staminodes, but the taxa distributed in East Asia have no staminodes. Huang (1966) reported that the section Daphniphyllum (currently a subsection of section Daphniphyllum) has prominent staminodes in tropical Asia and this character is reduced in temperate Asia. Our observations confirm his report. The plants of D. teijsmannii in Japan have no staminodes, but the type specimen has distinct staminodes. This type specimen was collected from a cultivated individual, which was initially introduced from Japan to the Bogor Botanical Garden in Java (Teijsman and Binnendijk, 1864; Huang, 1965). It is possible that abnormal flowers with staminodes might have been induced by its cultivated environment. Furthermore, the variety, D. teijsmannii var. amamiense, was named based solely on a single type specimen possessing minute staminodes collected from the Ryukyu Islands (Hurusawa, 1942b, 1954). However, this variety was soon synonymized as D. teijsmannii (Ha-tusima, 1971), since the presence of staminodes in the type specimen appears to be a rare exception. Staminodes have not been found in other populations of D. teijsmannii. Sev­eral specimens of D. macropodum with abnormal bisexual flowers were observed in the herbarium of Kew, which were collected from introduced plants cultivated at Kew Garden (Tang, personal observation). Based on these phe­nomena, the presence of staminodes, and their size, might be occasionally influenced by environmental factors.
Many authors have regarded the morphology of the calyx (presence, caducous or persistent, degree of con­nection) as providing the most effective characters for taxonomic recognition of species within Daphniphyllum (Muller, 1869; Rosenthal, 1919; Chien, 1933; Croizat and Metcalf, 1941; Hurusawa, 1942a, b; Huang, 1966; Ming, 1980; Wang, 1981; Huang, 1996; Ming and Kubitzki, 2008). Huang (1965) mentioned that the serration of sepals is useless in species distinction. Hurusawa (1942b) classi­fied six varieties of D. teijsmannii (included D. oldhamii) with the shapes of sepals and leaves. Our observation sup­ports Huang's opinions. Except in D. macropodum var. macropodum, calyx type was found to be stable intraspe-cifically in this study. The pistillate flower of D. macropo-dum var. macropodum was found to be either asepalous or have a free calyx. Because the free type of sepal is always caducous at early anthesis, it recommended that fresh materials with calyx features be obtained before the loss of the bracts from the inflorescence (caducous, free sepals and bracts will drop off around the same time). Because they are caducous, the free calyx is the most difficult fea­ture to observe in herbarium specimens. Therefore, many taxonomists, except Hurusawa (1942a) and Huang (1996), have ignored this feature and have seldom used it in tax­onomy of Daphniphyllum.
This study shows that the types of calyx are important for taxonomy, especially for the distinction of section levels of Daphniphyllum (Table 1). Therefore, the care­ful examination of pistillate materials is required. Section Lunata (D. calycinum and D. laurinum) has only the cleft calyx. Section Daphniphyllum has three types of calyx. The asepalous or free calyx is possessed by the subsection Staminodia. Moreover, the other two taxa of this subsec­tion (D. parvifolium, D. chartaceum) (Huang, 1966; Ming and Kubitzki, 2008) are found to have free calyces. The majority (12 studied taxa) of subsection Daphniphyllum has the parted calyx. Only two taxa (D. buchananiifolium and D. woodsonianum) show free calyces. They also have reniform stigmas. These two features are also present in subsection Staminodia. Consequently, D. buchananiifo-lium and D. woodsonianum may have a closer relationship with subsection Staminodia than with subsection Daphni-phyllum.
The informative pistillate flowers (including stigma type, persistence of stigma, stigma elongation, calyx type, persistence of calyx in fruit, prescence of staminode) of Daphniphyllaceae contribute greatly to identification and classification of this family of dioecous plants. However, cautious efforts to examine these inconspicuous features with attention of developmental change, and to distinguish caducous traces from damaged organs in a pistillate flow­er, are necessary. The results of this study support Huang's original intrageneric classification of this genus into three sections (Huang, 1966), Daphniphyllum, Lunata and Sta-minodia. However, two taxa of section Daphniphyllum as mentioned above, D. buchananiifolium and D. woodso-nianum, are suggested to be reassigned to section Stamino-

dia. We provide a Key below to our revised intrageneric classification of Daphniphyllum. As for intrasectional classification of Daphniphyllum, these results do not show consistent grouping relationships in accordance with Huang's intrasectional classification (1996). Further
studies should be done to address species that were not obtained for the present study. Moreover, a combination of multiple data will be needed for a full understanding of species diversity, intraspecific taxa, and the obscure in-trageneric relationships of Daphniphyllaceae.

虎皮楠科植物僅具虎皮楠一屬,雌雄異株;花單性,不顯著,結構返化且往往早落。其葉、雄花和
果實可資應用的分類特徵十分有限;與前者相較,雌花的特徵較多且穩定,對其分類極有幫助。然而雌
花的相關報導卻仍相當稀少,諸此原因,造成本屬物種鑑定之困難和屬下分類位階--節或系等的不確
定性。本研究觀察19個分類群,報導虎皮楠屬雌花的多樣性和其發育之主要變化,除了提供本科植物
分類特徵之參考外,也有助於屬下的分類評估。虎皮楠的雌花柱頭可分成四型點狀、腎形、線形和長
橢圓形。除了點狀柱頭外,其他三型的柱頭在開花的過程中都會有延長的現象。在研究的19個分類群
中,三個分類群的雌花無花萼,其他分類群的花萼可區分成三型萼片離生,合生深裂和合生淺裂。不
孕性雄蕊的存在和宿存與否亦為鑑別特徵。本研究結果支持本屬的屬下分類系統依黃氏原先之處理,分
為三個節:虎皮楠節、半月形藥節和不妊性雄蕊節,並建議將原屬於虎皮楠節其中的二物種歸屬為不妊
性雄蕊節。
關鍵詞:早落的;花萼;虎皮楠節;半月形藥節;不孕性雄蕊;不妊性雄蕊節;柱頭;分類價值。
