Adansonia (3) 36 (1): 83-102, DOI: 10.5252/a2014n1a8, URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.5252/a2014n1a8
240791582924FF91FF72FD0E9B03FCCC.taxon	discussion	REMARKS Ten species of Calantica are recognized, including three newly described species. The key to these species emphasizes floral morphology; some species would be difficult to reliably identify from sterile material. Since the fruits are small and the perianth is persistent, most characters of the perianth, and to some extent the androecium, remain observable in fruiting material. Descriptions of floral color, provided for their potential informative value, are derived, for some species, in part from field observations and photographs of live material, and for others, solely from label data. As color of floral structures appears to vary in the better-collected species, both among individuals and over time, these descriptions in poorly known species may not adequately represent the true range of variation and should be used with caution.	en	Applequist, Wendy L., Phillipson, Peter B., Schatz, George E.

240791582922FF9BFD47FD2E99DCFB28.taxon	distribution	DISTRIBUTION AND ECOLOGY Calantica cerasifolia is widely distributed in humid forests of eastern Madagascar and in littoral forest; it occurs at a wide range of altitudes (from sea level to over 2100 m), on laterite, rocky or siliceous soil, or sandstone, often on streambanks or in streambeds, or on dry hills.	en	Applequist, Wendy L., Phillipson, Peter B., Schatz, George E. (2014): A synoptic revision of the Malagasy endemic genus Calantica Jaub. ex Tul. (Salicaceae). Adansonia (3) 36 (1): 83-102, DOI: 10.5252/a2014n1a8, URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.5252/a2014n1a8
240791582922FF9BFD47FD2E99DCFB28.taxon	discussion	REMARKS Calantica cerasifolia is a tree to 25 m and 100 cm dbh with pale bark, described on only one specimen label (probably in error) as lianoid. It is notable for its large inflorescences of numerous small flowers (usually 5 - 7.5 mm in diameter, rarely to 10 mm). The perianth is pale or yellowish green to whitish (rarely described as yellow-orange), the glands yellow to orange, the disk pale green or yellow becoming reddish, the filaments white, and the anthers red to brown, yellow, or black. Flowers are often reported to be scented. As herein circumscribed, Calantica cerasifolia is widespread in humid forests and encompasses exceptional morphological variability. The leaves are quite variable in shape and size; in general, they are broadest at or above the middle, frequently with cuspidate apices, convex bases, and crenate to subentire margins. Three regional variants are particularly worth noting. Several specimens from very high altitudes in Antsiranana (1827 - 2137 m) have thickened, often suborbicular, strongly crenate leaves, and a larger group of specimens from moderate-elevation forests (950 - 1100 m) in Toamasina have small obovate leaves, with apices relatively often rounded to retuse and bases relatively often cuneate. Low-elevation collections from the northeastern Masoala region have unusually large leaves, which tend to be oblong and to have rounded to rounded-truncate rather than convex bases. However, a wide range of variation in leaf morphology is seen within other species in association with altitudinal variation (van Steenis 1957) and the floral morphology is not significantly different in any of these populations. Calantica cerasifolia is likely to be closely related to C. grandiflora, which has pilose inflorescences, only sparsely or partly pubescent ovaries, and usually much larger flowers with larger sepal glands that have a less corrugated surface. Three specimens, cited above as possible hybrids, have been identified that have intermediate characteristics, combining pilose pedicels and sepals with more or less densely pubescent ovaries. The flowers of these specimens are 8 - 10.5 mm in diameter (unusually large for C. cerasifolia, unusually small for C. grandiflora); the sepal glands are over 1 mm long, which is very rare in C. cerasifolia, but sometimes have a densely corrugated surface typical of that species. Leaf morphology in these specimens is variable, as it is in C. cerasifolia. Two of these specimens were collected in areas where both species are known; one (Schatz et al. 1948) was collected simultaneously with typical C. grandiflora (Schatz et al. 1947). The third (Rakotomalaza et al. 2080) is problematic because it was collected at 1200 m, while C. grandiflora occurs only at low altitudes near the coasts. As C. cerasifolia occurs at a complete range of altitudes, we tentatively hypothesize that this specimen results from gene flow following introgression of C. cerasifolia genes at a lower altitude. Further investigation of this population would be desirable. The original material of Blackwellia cerasifolia was described by Ventenat (1808: 56) as “ originaire de Madagascar; cultivé dans le Jardin Botanique de l’Isle de France, où le Célèbre Naturaliste Riche avoit cueilli l’exemplaire que je fais figurer. ” No specimen attributed to Riche exists. A collection by Commerson, of which material at G was designated as “ type ” by Sleumer (1973), has been generally considered to represent original material (Perrier 1946; Sleumer 1973). There are two sheets at G, one of which is barcoded (G 00364811) and the other possibly intended to share the same number (its image was sent as G 00364811 _ a). The barcoded sheet, which holds a smaller specimen with more surviving flowers, has a handwritten label reading “ inconnues de Madagascar, Homalium, Commerson ”, with a later annotation of “ Blackwell. Cerasifolia Vent ”. The second sheet has a printed “ Herbier de Ventenat ” label with the handwritten notation of “ Commerson ”. It is reasonable to assume that Commerson’s collection was original material used by Ventenat (Commerson died in 1773, so his collection would have been available long before Ventenat’s 1808 publication). However, the material provided by Riche for illustration might have been an unrelated original element. Sleumer equated the two by labeling the barcoded sheet at G as “ cultivé dans le Jardin Botanique de l’Ile de France, originaire de Madagascar, Commerson legit ” and describing it similarly in print (Sleumer 1973), but none of the duplicates at G or P mention the Jardin Botanique nor correspond to Ventenat’s plate (1808: tab. 56). Commerson’s specimen at G is therefore a lectotype, not a holotype. Since only one of the two sheets at G should properly have been designated as lectotype, we herein perform a second-step lectotypification, as permitted by Art. 9.17 of the ICN (McNeill et al. 2012), to specify that the barcoded sheet is the lectotype.	en	Applequist, Wendy L., Phillipson, Peter B., Schatz, George E.

24079158292FFF99FF05FBF29BC8F943.taxon	distribution	DISTRIBUTION AND HABITAT Calantica grandiflora is widely distributed in eastern and northeastern remnants of littoral forest or rarely subcoastal forest on the east coast of Madagascar; it is almost always found near sea level on sand. However, one collection (Antilahimena 2432) reports an altitude of 365 m and another (Réserves Naturelles 6176) is from Betampona, presumably also in low-elevation humid forest.	en	Applequist, Wendy L., Phillipson, Peter B., Schatz, George E.

24079158292FFF99FF05FBF29BC8F943.taxon	discussion	REMARKS Calantica grandiflora is usually a tree, with height to 20 m and dbh to 40 cm, or rarely a shrub, with gray to blackish bark. The perianth is pale greenish to yellowish, or at least the petals rarely white; the disk may be orange-red, the glands are white becoming yellow or orange-red, and the anthers have been reported as yellow or black. The variation in its leaf morphology overlaps with that of the widespread and variable C. cerasifolia, which also sometimes occurs in littoral forests. The inflorescences, pedicels, and abaxial sepal surfaces of C. grandiflora are more or less pilose, the inflorescences and pedicels sometimes also bearing more numerous shorter trichomes, whereas those of C. cerasifolia are pubescent with short upwardcurving or very short erect trichomes. The flowers of C. grandiflora are on average about twice as large, and the sepal glands are larger with a less densely ornamented surface, although overlap in these features may be seen due to exceptional individuals in both species. The ovary of C. grandiflora is at most partially or sparsely pubescent, while that of C. cerasifolia is densely pubescent throughout, and the fruits of C. grandiflora are relatively large and glabrate. Three specimens with intermediate floral characters suggesting possible hybridization between these species are known (see discussion of C. cerasifolia); two of these are from plausible localities, although one (Rakotomazala et al. 2080) is found well outside the normal habitat of C. grandiflora. The lectotype of this species was selected from among several syntypes by Sleumer (1973). Two sheets of this collection are held at P, one in good condition with multiple flowers and one in poor condition and lacking flowers. Sleumer presumably would have thought primarily of the former as the lectotype, but did not specify this in print and annotated both sheets as “ lectotype. ” As permitted by Art. 9.17 of the ICN (McNeill et al. 2012), we hereby further designate the better-quality duplicate as the lectotype.	en	Applequist, Wendy L., Phillipson, Peter B., Schatz, George E.

24079158292DFF98FF79FF659B4AFEB1.taxon	discussion	REMARKS Calantica lucida is a shrub or small tree (rarely to 10 m tall). Its flowers are cream white with an orange disk. They resemble those of C. cerasifolia and C. olivacea sp. nov. in being small with a pale perianth and petals much narrower than sepals, but have usually densely sericeous (rather than sparsely to moderately pubescent) indument on the abaxial sepal surface and longer trichomes on the ovary and disk. Calantica lucida is also distinguished from those species by its small, narrowly elliptical (to elliptical), usually rounded-acute leaves. Inflorescences are small and few-flowered, whereas those of C. cerasifolia are often quite large. Rakotovao et al. 4538 is a somewhat anomalous specimen, a 10 - meter tree whose flowers are less densely pubescent than other known material.	en	Applequist, Wendy L., Phillipson, Peter B., Schatz, George E.

It is known from three locations, with the Extent of Occurrence calculated as 221 km 2 and the Area of Occupancy as 158 km 2; remaining habitat in the area is degraded and is subject to continuing damage. It occurs within the protected area of Andohahela, but in an area that may experience continuing decline, as the native vegetation is already fragmented and subject to cattle grazing.	en	Applequist, Wendy L., Phillipson, Peter B., Schatz, George E.

24079158292DFF9DFC96FE2B9999FAE7.taxon	discussion	REMARKS Calantica olivacea sp. nov. includes specimens that formerly have been classified within C. cerasifolia (Sleumer 1973). The flowers of the two species are very similar, but the vegetative appearance of C. olivacea sp. nov. is distinctive. Its leaves are consistently lanceolate to ovate or elliptical with an acuminate apex, while C. cerasifolia has leaves of variable shape, broadest at or above the middle, most frequently with a cuspidate apex, and often with longer stipules. Leaves of C. olivacea sp. nov. frequently dry a characteristic pale, unmottled olive green adaxially and pale brown abaxially, although this character is not fully consistent and may be affected by specimen processing methods. The inflorescences of C. olivacea sp. nov. are smaller and shorter than those of C. cerasifolia, 1 - 3 cm long at maturity and often having as few as 8 - 12 maturing flowers. The habitat of C. olivacea sp. nov. is dry forest or open hills, whereas C. cerasifolia is usually found in humid to subhumid forests. Flowers are reported to be scented (Antilahimena 348).	en	Applequist, Wendy L., Phillipson, Peter B., Schatz, George E.

Although the species has a large range (an Extent of Occurrence of 207,757 km 2), the habitat is almost all unprotected and degraded. It is perhaps reason for concern that very few recent collections are known (in contrast to C. cerasifolia, which is still collected relatively often), possibly indicating a reduction in numbers.

240791582928FF82FF49FAF19919FDAF.taxon	discussion	REMARKS Calantica pseudobiseriata sp. nov. is a tree that has leaves with serrate margins, reddish flowers, and stamens in groups of 3 opposite each petal. It is quite similar in appearance to C. biseriata, to which it is probably most closely related. It may be distinguished from that species by its sparsely puberulent ovary, which is dark-colored in dried material, and long styles (1.5 - 2 mm long, vs <0.5 mm long in C. biseriata) that usually have a prominent ridge at the juncture with the ovary. The leaves of C. pseudobiseriata sp. nov. are ovate to elliptical with acuminate to acute apices, whereas those of C. biseriata are usually broadly elliptical to suborbicular with abruptly cuspidate or very short-acuminate apices, although C. biseriata has a range of variation in leaf shape that, at its extreme, could approach that of C. pseudobiseriata sp. nov. Calantica pseudobiseriata sp. nov. is native to humid forest in northeastern Madagascar, whereas C. biseriata is native to dry forests in western to extreme northern Madagascar.	en	Applequist, Wendy L., Phillipson, Peter B., Schatz, George E.

240791582937FF81FF76FD2E9990FC2A.taxon	discussion	REMARKS Calantica sphaerocephala sp. nov. is a distinctive species, easily recognized by its cauliflorous inflorescences, which are short, usually irregularly subglobose, and dense. The sepals have prominent peg-shaped, gland-tipped marginal projections that are not present in any related species. The sepal glands are nearly smooth-surfaced and tend to be concave with elevated margins. The flowers are relatively large; the filaments are longer than those of any other species (6 - 7.4 mm), and the styles are unusually long (1.8 - 2.2 mm). The living plant is described as having horizontal branches, vertical petioles, and horizontal leaf blades (Birkinshaw et al. 734). This species does not closely resemble any other, and its affinities are uncertain. Calantica sphaerocephala sp. nov. is native to the same part of northeastern Madagascar as Homalium cauliflorum H. Perrier, which also has cauliflorous inflorescences and similarly shaped leaves (Perrier de la Bâthie 1940, 1946). The flowers of H. cauliflorum are 8 - 10 - merous and less than half as large (c. 4 mm in diameter), with stamens shorter than the petals, densely hairy sepal glands, 4 - 6 styles, and a semi-inferior, flattened, pilose ovary.	en	Applequist, Wendy L., Phillipson, Peter B., Schatz, George E.

240791582934FF81FF23FBE59AF7F9E5.taxon	discussion	No modern treatment of Calantica has followed Baillon (1886) in subsuming the single species of Bivinia into Calantica. Bivinia, which has long spiciform inflorescences and relatively numerous stamens, much more closely resembles some species of Homalium. It is distinguished from Homalium by its superior ovary and apetalous condition; the latter is undoubtedly derived. Interestingly, B. jalbertii is native both to western and southeastern Madagascar and to East Africa from Zimbabwe to Kenya.	en	Applequist, Wendy L., Phillipson, Peter B., Schatz, George E.

It has appeared to be simply an invalidly published horticultural name, which for that reason had never been addressed in prior revisions of the genus. It is rarely mentioned (usually as “ mantini ”) in entirely uncritical references such as computerized lists of plant names. However, the cited page reference (Bois 1894: 134) is largely devoted to a list of recently displayed new orchids, and the only similar name on that page is: “ encore une série de Calanthes: (...) Mantini, à labelle rouge et à divisions supérieures blanches, striées de rose. ” It appears that a name intended to describe a new hybrid of the orchid genus Calanthe R. Br. was accidentally entered into Index Kewensis as Calantica and the error was never corrected.	en	Applequist, Wendy L., Phillipson, Peter B., Schatz, George E.
