D. M. Thompson (2005) observed that two forms of Diplacus layneae co-occur from the Yosemite National Park area southward; one of these is recognized here as D. graniticola. (Discussion copyrighted by Flora of North America; reprinted with permission.) |
Species 49 (48 in the flora). Diplacus includes western North American species with parietal placentation and pedicels usually distinctly shorter than the calyces, which were formerly treated within Mimulus in the broad sense. The closest relatives of Diplacus apparently are Mimetanthe and the Mexican-Central American Hemichaena Bentham, which also are characterized by parietal placentation. Diplacus has been divided into six sections (W. R. Barker et al. 2012; G. L. Nesom 2013b), corresponding to morphological patterns and cladistic patterns in the molecular-based phylogenetic analysis by P. M. Beardsley et al. (2004). The species are ordered here following that system as follows: sect. Eunanus (Bentham) G. L. Nesom & N. S. Fraga (species 1–27, type D. nanus), sect. Pseudoenoe (A. L. Grant) G. L. Nesom & N. S. Fraga (species 28, type D. pictus), sect. Cleisanthus (J. T. Howell) G. L. Nesom & N. S. Fraga (species 29–33, type D. douglasii), sect. Oenoe (A. Gray) G. L. Nesom & N. S. Fraga (species 34–38, type D. tricolor), and sect. Diplacus (species 39–48, type D. aurantiacus). Evolutionary radiation in Diplacus has been restricted to the United States and Mexico, in contrast to Erythranthe, the other large segregate from Mimulus. The only species of Diplacus that does not occur in the United States is an endemic of Baja California on Cedros Island, D. stellatus Kellogg, a member of sect. Diplacus (M. C. Tulig and G. L. Nesom 2012). D. M. Thompson (2005) treated D. stellatus as a synonym of his broadly conceived D. aurantiacus. A revision of Mimulus in the broad sense was provided by A. L. Grant (1924), followed by a major update and overview by F. W. Pennell (1951) that covered the majority of the western North American species of Diplacus. The present treatment closely follows that of D. M. Thompson (2005); a major area of taxonomic difference is in sect. Diplacus, where he treated most of the variation as within two species (D. aurantiacus and D. clevelandii), recognizing a number of varieties within D. aurantiacus that are here treated at specific rank. The detailed revision of Thompson forms a substantial basis of the treatment here. Plants in sect. Diplacus are subshrubs or shrubs (except for the herbaceous Diplacus clevelandii) and are the only perennials (except for D. rupicola) in Diplacus. They also are distinctive in their glutinous, revolute-margined leaves, often with fascicles of smaller leaves in the axils of main shoots, and minutely glandular styles. Molecular data indicate that sect. Diplacus is derived from annual, herbaceous ancestors. (Discussion copyrighted by Flora of North America; reprinted with permission.) |
