Samolus

	Samolus ''Samolus'' (known as brookweed, or water pimpernel) is a widely distributed genus of about a dozen species of water-loving herbs. According to the APG III classification, this genus belongs to the family Primulaceae in the order Ericales. It was considered as closely related to a clade comprising the Theophrastaceae Theophrastoideae is a small subfamily of flowering plants in the family Primulaceae. It was formerly recognized as a separate family Theophrastaceae. As previously circumscribed, the family consisted of eight genera and 95 species of trees or sh ..., and was treated as part of that family or in its own monogeneric family, the Samolaceae. The APG III system does not recognize these families and instead includes all genera formerly belonging to Theophrastaceae in the family Primulaceae. Species The last complete taxonomic treatment of this genus recognizes the following species: Although some local floras recognize the North-American populations of ''S. valerandi ...

	Samolus Valerandi ''Samolus valerandi'' is a species of flowering plant in the primrose family Primulaceae. Common names include seaside brookweed, brookweed, thin-leaf brookweed, water cabbage, and water rose. Description It is a small perennial, growing to around 35 cm (13.8 inches) high. Its inflorescence is a raceme, with small white flowers on long stalks. Its corollas have five lobes. It can produce flowers throughout the growing season, from spring to fall. Its fruits are capsules that are green and globose. Image:Samolus parviflorus.jpg, Mature inflorescences are widely spreading, with fruits on long stalks Taxonomy Although some floras recognize the North American populations of ''S. valerandi'' as a separate species (''S. parviflorus'') or subspecies (''S. valerandi'' ssp. ''parviflorus''), a 2012 investigation based on molecular and morphological data indicated that ''S. vagans'' and ''S. parviflorus'' should not be regarded as separate species but as part of a widespread "''S. ...

	Theophrastaceae Theophrastoideae is a small subfamily of flowering plants in the family Primulaceae. It was formerly recognized as a separate family Theophrastaceae. As previously circumscribed, the family consisted of eight genera and 95 species of trees or shrubs, native to tropical regions of the Americas. Description The two subclades or tribes of Theophrastoideae, Theophrasteae (Theophrastaceae ''s.s.'') and Samoleae, share only the presence of staminodes. The species of ''Samolus'' are perennial, herbaceous or suffrutescent (shrubby) and characterised by perigynous flowers. The remaining genera (Theophrastaceae ''s.s.'') are generally evergreen shrubs or small trees, with hypogynous flowers. Taxonomy History Linnaeus, in formally describing the genera, placed ''Theophrasta'' and related genera in a group he named ''Pentandria Monogynia'' (i.e 5 stamens, one pistil), his system being based on sexual characteristics. Jussieu arranged Linnaeus' genera in a hierarchical system o ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu]
	Samolus Repens ''Samolus repens'' is a species of water pimpernel native to Australia, New Zealand and near-by Pacific islands, and South America (South Chile), where it is common in temperate and subtropic coastlines. Common names include creeping brookweed and creeping bushweed. ''Samolus repens'' has small white or occasionally pink flowers with a flowering period from September through to March or April. Taxonomy The species was first described by Georg Forster in 1776 as ''Sheffieldia repens'' and placed in the genus ''Samolus'' in 1805 by Christiaan Hendrik Persoon.
