Abstract: | Blepharidachne is a disjunct American genus with four species:B. kingii (S. Wats.) Hackel (Great Basin of western U.S.A.) andB. bigelovii (S. Wats.) Hackel (Coahuila, Mexico and Texas, U.S.A.) in North America;B. benthamiana (Hackel) A. S. Hitchc. andB. hitchcockii Lahitte, both in central and western Argentina.Blepharidachne kingii is the only species with perfect flowers, the other three being monoecious as a result of a series of reductive processes. After a discussion of these morphological peculiarities, heretofore overlooked, the article is completed with a brief taxonomic synopsis of the genus. |
