Bryophytes from the Republic of Equatorial Guinea (West Central Africa) : 4., notes on some nomina nuda from Annobon

Eight moss species corresponding to nomina nuda recorded in the literature from Annobon Island are listed with their recent determination and current names. Leucophanes unguiculatum, Philonotis uncinata var. glaucescens and Vesicularia strephomischos are new records for the Equatorial Guinean bryoflora.Se citan con su identificación correcta y sus nombres actuales ocho especies de musgos procedentes de la isla de Annobón y registrados en la bibliografía como nomina nuda. Leucophanes unguiculatum, Philonotis uncinata var. glaucescens y Vesicularia strephomischos son nuevos registros para la brioflora de la República de Guinea Ecuatorial

Bryophytes from the Republic of Equatorial Guinea (West-Central Africa) : 2., bryophytes collected by Emilio Guinea (1907-1985) in the Island of Bioco in 1947

Some unidentified samples of bryophytes collected by Emilio Guinea in Bioco (Equatorial Guinea) in 1947 have been studied. Twenty-seven taxa are the result of this study, nine of them being new for Equatorial Guinea and two new for the island of Bioco.Se han estudiado varias muestras de briófitos sin identificar recogidas por Emilio Guinea en Bioco (Guinea Ecuatorial) en 1947. Veintisiete taxones son el resultado de este estudio, siendo nueve de ellos novedad para Guinea Ecuatorial y dos más, nuevos para la isla de Bioco

Miogypsinen aus Britisch West-Afrika (Cameroon)

Uber ein Vorkommen von Miogypsinen aus British-Cameroon wird erstmalig berichtet. Zwei Miogypsina (Miolepidocyclina)-Spezies [M. (M.) burdigalensis (Gumbel) und M. (M.) negrii (Ferrero)] und drei Miogypsina (Miogypsinoides)-Spezies [M. (M.) complanata Schlumberger, M. (M.) bantamensis (Tan Sin Hok) und M. (M.) nigeriana nov. spez.] konnten unterschieden werden. Diese Miogypsinenvergesellschaftung wurde in Tagesaufschlusen des NW-SE verlaufenden Flussbettes des Missellele River (British-Cameroon) in einem wenig machtigen Schichtpaket aufgefunden und das Alter der Schicht mit Miogypsinen als Unterburdigal bestimmt

Slavernij in perspectief: Mondialisering en erfgoed in Suriname, Ghana, Zuid-Afrika en Curaçao

Scherpe concurrentie dreef vanaf de vijftiende eeuw een aantal opkomende Europese naties tot intercontinentale scheepvaart, de bezetting van overzeese gebieden en de onderwerping van overzeese volkeren. Die expansie ging eerst richting Azië en korte tijd later naar de Amerika’s. Als gevolg daarvan ontstond vanaf de zestiende eeuw in het Atlantisch gebied een driehoek tussen Europa, West-Afrika en de Amerika’s, waarbinnen goederen, agrarische producten en mensen werden verhandeld. Het scharnierpunt tussen deze Atlantische driehoek en het handelsgebied rond de Indische Oceaan werd de uiterste punt van Afrika, Kaap de Goede Hoop en omgeving, nu de West-Kaap van Zuid-Afrika. Daar en in de Amerika’s werden compleet nieuwe samenlevingen gesmeed, waarin de productie draaide op slavenarbeid en gezagsverhoudingen grotendeels waren gekoppeld aan etniciteit

Quick reference list of basic literature to identify tropical African bryophytes

The aim of this short and selected reference list is to guide bryologists in the very scattered African literature when they try to identify specimens, as no standard bryofloras are available for the whole of Tropical Africa. The idea to compile such a reference list was raised during the Tropical Bryology Workshop held by the British Bryological Society, in the Botany School of Cambridge University, on the 21st of September 1990. The list is based on the senior author’s private library and files. We hope that the publication and distribution of such a list, even if incomplete, will prove to be useful for the future taxonomic and floristic works in Tropical Africa with special reference to the Bryologia Africana Project. We also hope that it will encour- age further collecting and identification by those who are not well versed in or do not possess the very diversified taxonomic literature on African bryo- phytes

Bryophytes from the Republic of Equatorial Guinea (West-Central Africa) : 1., introduction and preliminary checklist

A preliminary list consisting of 159 bryophyte taxa (82 liverworts and 77 mosses) has been compiled from the bryological literature on the Republic of Equatorial Guinea (Central-Western Africa) until 1995. A general overview of the physical features and vegetation of the country, and an account of the history of its bryological exploration are also included.Se han reunido en un catálogo preliminar los 159 táxones de briófitos (82 hepáticas y 77 musgos) de la República de Guinea Ecuatorial (Africa Centro-Occidental) conocidos a partir de la bibliografía hasta 1995. Se ha actualizado la nomenclatura y se incluye una descripción general del medio físico y de la vegetación del país, así como un resumen de la historia de su exploración briológica

Taxonomic results of the Bryotrop expedition to Zaire and Rwanda : 20., Grimmiaceae, Funariaceae, Bartramiaceae (Philonotis), Amblystegiaceae, Plagiotheciaceae

For worldwide monograph see Bremer (1980a, b, 1981). Unfortunately, this treatment is not particularly useful because the author accepted an exceedingly broad species concept and actually very many distinct and easily recognizable exotic species has simply been lumped with S. apocarpum (Hedw.) Bruch & Schimp. in B., S. & G. In tropical East Africa at least five distinct species have so far been recorded (Kis 1985), but it is very likely that this number will increase with progress in taxonomic study of the genus and floristic exploration of the bryologically undercollected areas
