Stenaria Sanchezii
''Stenaria'' is a genus of flowering plants in the family (biology), family Rubiaceae. It is a small genus, consisting of around six species native to the United States, Mexico, and The Bahamas. All species of ''Stenaria'' are restricted to Mexico and the southwestern United States, except for the wide-ranging ''Stenaria nigricans'' which extends northward and eastward. ''Stenaria'' are herbaceous perennials or low shrubs. Flowers are produced in cymes, and can be white, purple, or pink. ''Stenaria'' can be morphologically distinguished from the similar genus ''Hedyotis'' by its non-crateriform seeds. ''Stenaria'' was first recognized as a genus in 2001. It comprises species formerly classified as ''Hedyotis'' or ''Houstonia (plant), Houstonia''.

Hedyotis
''Hedyotis'' (starviolet) is a genus of flowering plants in the family Rubiaceae. Many species of this genus such as ''Hedyotis biflora, H. corymbosa'' and ''H. diffusa'' are well known medicinal plants. ''Hedyotis'' is native to tropical and subtropical Asia and to islands of the northwest Pacific.David J. Mabberley. 2008. ''Mabberley's Plant-Book'' third edition (2008). Cambridge University Press: UK. It comprises about 115 species.Inge Groeninckx, Steven Dessein, Helga Ochoterena, Claes Persson, Timothy J.

Houstonia (plant)
''Houstonia'' (bluet) is a genus of plants in the family Rubiaceae. Many species were formerly classified, along with other genera since segregated elsewhere, in a more inclusive genus ''Hedyotis''. Bluets are often small and delicate. For example, ''H. rosea'' may grow only one inch tall. Some species are single stemmed and others have multiple stems in bunches. Flowers are blue, purple, lavender, white, or rose, often with shades of one color present in an individual population. Flowers have 4 sepals, colloquially denominated "petals", a salverform corolla with 4 lobes, and an inferior ovary. Some species exhibit heterostyly. The fruit is an often roughly cordate capsule enclosing many seeds and which usually dehisces via a suture across its apex. ''Houstonia'' consists of 20 species native to North America. Another 5 species are classified in the genus '' Stenaria''; ''Houstonia'' without ''Stenaria'' is paraphyletic. Close relatives of the genus are ''Oldenlandia microtheca' ...

Constantine Samuel Rafinesque
Constantine Samuel Rafinesque-Schmaltz (; 22 October 178318 September 1840) was a French early 19th-century polymath born near Constantinople in the Ottoman Empire and self-educated in France. He traveled as a young man in the United States, ultimately settling in Ohio in 1815, where he made notable contributions to botany, zoology, and the study of Mound Builders, prehistoric earthworks in North America. He also contributed to the study of ancient Mesoamerican languages, Mesoamerican linguistics, in addition to work he had already completed in Europe. Rafinesque was an eccentric and erratic genius. He was an autodidact, who excelled in various fields of knowledge, as a zoologist, botanist, writer and Polyglot (person), polyglot. He wrote prolifically on such diverse topics as anthropology, biology, geology, and linguistics, but was honored in none of these fields during his lifetime. Indeed, he was an outcast in the American scientific community and his submissions were automati ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
