tinctfrombothMoraceae(s.str.)andUrticaceae(s.str.), Berg (1978a) proposedto treatthe group of six genera as a separatefamily,Cecropiaceae,a decisiongenerally The presentcontributionto FloraNeotropicacom- accepted,such as by Cronquist(1981), andconfirmed prisessectionswith generatreatedfor the firsttime and by Setoguchi et al. (1993) in a study on silicon-accusections with corrections and additions of genera re- mulating idioblasts in leaves of Cecropiaceae,which vised in FloraNeotropica Monograph7. This implies also supports the position of Poikilospermum as a thatall neotropicalMoraceaeexceptfor therepresenta- memberof the family.Forthe reducedMoraceae,Cortives of Ficus are included.However,in orderto make ner(1962) proposeda subdivisioninto six tribes:Artothe general survey of the family more complete, the carpeae,Brosimeae,Dorstenieae,Ficeae, Moreae,and genus Ficus is includedto some extentin the introduc- Olmedieae.Moreover,he reducedthe numberof gention to the family.Moreover,a briefintroductionto this era.The conceptsof the classificationanddelimitation genus is provided. of genera proposed by Cornerwere largely based on knowledge of the Asian andAustralasianmembersof thefamily.Classificationanddelimitationof generahave HISTORY TAXONOMIC been elaboratedby Berg (1973, 1977a, 1977b, 1986, 19th such as In most classifications of the century, those of Baillon (1875a) and Bentham and Hooker 1988, 1989b) by includingaccumulatedknowledgeof (1880), the Moraceae were included in an "order"or neotropical and African members of the family. The "family"with the subdivisions: Ulmaceae, Celtideae, results of these studies arediscussed underthe tribes. Accordingto presentconcepts,the familyMoraceae Cannabineae,Moreae, Artocarpeae,Conocephaleae, comprises 37 genera and 1050-1100 species worldandUrticaceae.However,in De Candolle'sProdromus, 19 wide, with generaandapproximately270 species in volumes 16 (De Candolle, 1869; Weddell, 1869) and 17 (Bureau, 1873; Planchon, 1873), the grouphad al- the Neotropics (Berg, 1998b). readybeensplitintofive related"orders"(Cannabineae, Urticaceae,Ulmaceae, Moraceae,andArtocarpeae),a MORPHOLOGY prelude to the subdivision of the order Urticales by The Moraceae are highly diverse in the morpholEngler(1889), in whichthe familyMoraceaecomprises ogy of bothvegetativeandreproductivestructures.The the subfamilies Moroideae (with the tribes Fatoueae, descriptionof the diversity is largely focussed on the Moreae,Broussonetieae,Strebleae,andDorstenieae), taxa treatedin the presentcontribution,but it includes Artocarpoideae (with the tribes Euartocarpeae, to some extentalso the genus Ficus andOld WorldrepOlmedieae,Brosimeae,andFiceae),Conocephaloideae, resentativesof the family. andCannaboideae.TheCannaboideaearemorerecently regardedas meriting the rank of family in the order Habit Urticales(cf.

This made the forms, as discussed in detail in the introductionto this weaknessof the demarcationof MoraceaeandUrtica- genus in the presentcontribution. About 30% of the species are basically hemiepiceae apparent.Chew proposed to transferthe microspermousgenera of the Conocephaloideae,Cecropia phytic and they belong to the genus Ficus.

18 4aa.An easternpart,comprisingthe StateofAmapa (Brazil), French Guiana, and eastern Suriname,and extending into easternParaor to Maranhao(Brazil). 4ab.A westernpart,comprising Guyana,northern Roraima(Brazil), and easternVenezuela. These parts are separatedby a transitional zone which could be an extension of the south-north-running zone in the Amazon Basin, partly including the "matade cipo" belt in Para(cf. Daly & Prance, 1989; Pires, 1974). The presenceof an easternanda western formof Naucleopsisguianensis accentuatesthe subdivision of the region. For the whole Guianaregion about 20 species or subspeciescan be regardedas endemicor subendemic; five ofthem (e.g.,Ficus leiophyllaC. C. Berg,F maroniensis Benoist, andPerebea rubra subsp. rubra)being more or less clearly associatedwith the easternpartof the region andfive (e.g., Ficus roraimensisC. C. Berg, F tepuiensis,andSoroceamuriculatasubsp.uaupensis) with the western part. Some of the species distinctly associatedwith the Guianaregionoccurdisjunctlyelsewhere:Bagassa guianensis in northernMato Grosso and Rond6nia (Brazil), Ficus broadwayi Urban and Helicostylispedunculatain Bahia (Brazil). About 50 more widespread species or subspecies are found in the Guianaregion. About 10 of them belong to a groupof whichthe distributionis largelynorth of the Amazon River, including some Ficus species (e.g., F malacocarpa Standley and F panurensis Standley),Brosimumpotabile, B. utile,Helianthostylis sprucei, and Trymatococcusamazonicus.This list indicates that the woody representatives of the Dorstenieae,in particularBrosimumsubg.Ferolia,Helianarelargelyassociatedwith thostylisand Trymatococcus, the Guianaregion. 4b. TheAmazonBasin (Amazonia).Approximately 90 non-Ficus moraceous species and subspecies are found here, about 50 of them are endemic to this (sub)region; 40 also occur outside this region, about 20 of them extending only to the Guianaregion. There is a distinct concentration of endemic species and subspecies in the upper part of the Amazon Basin, in particularof membersof the Castilleae and Artocarpeae.Fromwest to east the numberof species decreases and the moraceous flora reaches a borderline largely coinciding with the Rio Tapajosand the easternborderof the south-north-runningzone with types of transitionalforest,partlyincluding the "mata de cipo" forest belt (cf. Daly & Prance, 1989; Pires, 1974), in which Moraceae are poorly represented. West of this zone the moraceous flora consists of a mixtureof some trulyAmazonian,Guianan,andwidespread elements. The related family Cecropiaceae roughly shows the same pattern.

FLORANEOTROPICA Thenumberof Ficus speciesconfinedto theAmazon Basin is remarkablylow, and most of these endemic species (F aripuanensisC.C.Berg & F. Kooy,F coerulescens (Rusby) Rossberg (= F killipii Standley), F lauretanaVdzquezAvila, andF schultesii) areassociated with the upperAmazon Basin. The only typically lower AmazonianFicus species is F christianii Carauta(= F gameleira Standley), occurringin Para and Maranhao.About 20 of the Ficus species also occuroutsidetheHylea.Theothersoccurbothin theAmazon Basin and the Guianaregion. Two areasin the upperAmazon Basin are particularly rich in moraceoustaxa: 4ba. The southwestem comer, consisting of Acre (Brazil), Pando (Bolivia), and Madrede Dios (Peru): anarealargelycoincidingwiththeEastPeruPleistocene forest refuge proposed by Prance (1974, 1977). Not only aremanyspecies (andsubspecies)representedbut the family also tendsto be more abundantin the forests thanothertreefamilies (cf. Boom, 1989). It is remarkablethatthe numberof subspeciesor species (sub)endemicto thisareais verysmall,possiblyonlyNaucleopsis jamariensis. 4bb. The northwestemcomer, largelybetweenRio CaquetA (Colombia)andRio Marafion-RioAmazonasRio Solim6es(Peru-Brazil)andlargelycoincidingwith the Napo refuge (Prance, 1974, 1977). For the Ecuadorianpartof this area 53 non-Ficus species and subspecies have been recordedfor a floristic treatmentof this group (Berg, 1998a). For the whole (Napo) area thatnumberis about60, which impliesthatnearly50% of all non-Ficus woody species and subspecies recognized (129) are representedin that area. Moraceaeis often the most speciose family in uplandforestsin this region (cf. Balslev & Renner, 1989), and the species are commonly abundantas well. Ten out of these 60 species can be regardedas (sub)endemic,half of them herbaceousor (suf)frutescent.For this region nearly 30 Ficus species have been recorded,only F lauretana and a still undescribedspecies being endemic. The Napo region is distinct from otherAmazonian regions with concentrationsof moraceous species by the presenceof relatively many (10) endemics or subendemics,but also by the relatively strongrepresentation of species of shrubsand small trees, a categoryof moraceous taxa of which one gets the impression of being in generalmorevulnerableto extinctionthanthe species of medium-sizedand large trees. A third region showing a high concentration of species is the Manausarea.About 50 species and subspecies of Moraceae have been recorded. The area shows a remarkablemixture of elements associated with the Guianaregion and with Amazonia. None of the taxa is endemic.

AND DIVERSIFICATION CLASSIFICATION Thefamilyasithasbeenredefined byCorner (1962) comprises6 tribes:Moreae,Artocarpeae, Dorstenieae, Castilleae,andFiceae.Thesubdivisionof thefamily hasbeenproposedby Corner(1962) andremodelled by Berg(1973, 1988, 1989b).Eachof thesetribesis describedandbrieflydiscussedin thepresentcontribution.Thetribescanbe regardedas naturalentities andmostof themhaveclearcoherenceinmorphologianddiscalcharacters andinpatterns of differentiation tribution.OnlythetribeArtocarpeae lacksthatclear coherence, andthreeratherdistinct(butnotyetformalized)subdivisions canberecognized.

Theurticaceousstamensareclearlyanadaptation to anemophily: thepollengrainsthrownoutintotheair of thestamensaretransbytheexplosivestraightening portedfurtherby airmovement(asdiscussedmorein detailintheintroduction to thefamily,seeabove).Pollentransport to berareoronlysupplebywindappears

Some can be found in forest undergrowth,butaretherelargelyconfinedto the marginsof (small) streams.Representativesof the Moreaeareoften shrubsor climbers.Some can become large (emergent) trees, others(in the paleotropicalgenus Fatoua) areherbaceousor suffrutescent. The inflorescences of the Moreae are relatively simplecomparedwithotherMoraceae.They aremostly racemes,spikes, or ellipsoid to globose heads. The involucratehead as found in Trophiscaucana is the most advancedtype of inflorescencein the tribe.The urticaceouspollenreleasemechanismrequiressufficientspace for eachof the staminateflowersandthatlimitsthe evolutionarycondensationof the staminate(andbisexual) inflorescences.Pistillateinflorescencesareoften more condensedthanthe staminateones, but fusion of pistillate flowers is rarein this tribe. The staminateflowers of the neotropicalrepresentativesofthe Moreaeare4-merous.Theperianthis welldevelopedandthe tepalsareimbricateor valvatein the bud.A pistillode is usually present.Togetherwith the perianththe pistillode seems to play a role in keeping the long incurved stamens in position and undertension until anthesis. The pistillateflowers also have a i well-developed perianth.The ovary is mostly free from the perianth, but is partly connate in some Trophisspecies. There are two styles, or by reduction only one. The fruitsare small to medium-sized.They areenclosed in the fleshy enlargedperianth,free or adnate, forning a pseudodrupe.If not enclosed by a fleshy perianth,the fruitsaredrupaceous.In some paleotropical species the drupesareof the dehiscenttype, ejectingor expellingthe endocarpbody.In Trophisinvolucratathe perianthdoes not even enlargeduringthe fonnation of the fruit, and the exocarp tums dark blue to black at Smallseedscontainendospermanda(relatively) maturity.

Linnaeus(1753) initially adoptedPlumier'sname Bucephalon for this genus, but in 1759 he chose the name Trophis,thathadbeen establishedby P. Browne (1756).ThegenusTrophiswasrevisedby Bureau(1873). He recognized two species, referreda thirdone with uncertaintyto the genus, andexcludedthepaleotropical taxa which had been describedin the genus in course of time. Burger(1962) monographedthe genus again. He recognized four species and included the genus SkutchiaMorton (1937). In 1973 he describeda fifth species, T involucrata.

The species is very variable,especially in the charactersof the lamina(dimensions, shape, texture,margin, andindumentum)andin the length of the inflorescences. Part of the variation is connected with distribution,which openedthe possibility to recognize varietiesor subspecies (Bureau, 1873; Burger, 1962).

The most common neotropicalspecies of Maclura was decribedas Morus tinctoria by Linnaeus(1753). Combinationswere made with Broussonetia (Kunth, 1817), Fusticus (Rafinesque, 1838), and Maclura (Steudel,1841).In 1830 GaudichaudestablishedthegenusChlorophora,based on Morustinctoria.The combination,Chlorophoratinctoria,wasmadeby B. D. Jackson in 1893, and that name was commonly used for a long time. However, Miquel (1853) continuedto use the genus nameMaclurain his treatmentof the "Moraceae"in FloraBrasiliensis. He recognized seven neotropicalspecies, among them some based on taxa describedby Linnaeus(1759) andLiebmann(1851), M. brasiliensis, describedby Martius(1841) asBroussonetia brasiliensis, and threenew species. With the exception of M brasiliensis, Bureau(1873) included all these species, as well as a species decribed by Blume (1856) in Chlorophora tinctoria and recognized 10 infraspecifictaxain this species;moreof suchtaxawere publishedby Hassler (1919). Bureaualso transferred the AfricanMorusexcelsa Welwitschto Chlorophora. Since Bureau'srevision, two additionalspecies were decribedin Chlorophora(Fernald, 1904; Standley & L. 0. Williams, 1950). Grisebach (1879) decribed Maclura mora, which was transferredby Lillo (1910) to Chlorophoraand subsequently(1925) reducedto a variety of C. tinctoria. Macbride (1937) transferred Maclurabrasiliensisto Chlorophora.In 1972 Kaastra revisedthe genus Chlorophora.He acceptedC. tinctoria, with two subspecies,andexcluded C. brasiliensis, as a species underMaclura. In 1962 Cornerreduced Chlorophorato a section of the broadlyconstruedgenus Maclura, in which he also included the African genus Cardiogyne and the Asian genus Cudrania.Corner'sbroadconcept of the genus Maclura was reconsideredby Berg (1986). He included the Asian Plecospermum in the genus, but excluded three African taxa referredto Maclura by Corner (1962). One of them was transferredto the paleotropicalgenusBroussonetiaandtwo of themwere transferredto the Africangenus Milicia. In the present concept the genus comprises: 1. section Maclura, with only M. pomifera (Rafinesque)C. K. Schneiderin NorthAmerica; 2. section Cardiogyne (Bureau) Corner, with M. africana (Bureau)Cornerin EastAfrica and M. brasiliensis intropicalAmerica; 3. section Cudrania (Trecul) Coiner, with five species in Asia-Australasia;

FLORANEOTROPICA

68 with one species in New Caledonia(cf. Corner,1962); and Treculia,with 3 species in Africaand Madagascar (Berg, 1977c). The tribeArtocarpeaelacks the homogeneityof the otherfour tribes of the Moraceae.It shows featuresof the other four tribes and is, to some extent, a crosssection through the family. The inflorescence varies from simple to complex and the flowers from normal moraceousto reduced. It is not clear whetherthe heterogeneitycan be ascribedto polyphylyor whetherthe triberepresentsisolatedfragmentsof a natural(monophyletic) group.The otherfour tribesof the Moraceae show more or less distinct centers of distributionor clear links between majorphytogeographicalregions, but not so for the Artocarpeaeas a whole. The tribe can be subdivided into three groups to which one could assign the rank of subtribes.These groups are phytogeographicallyseparatedbut do not show clear morphologicallinks. One of the groups comprises Artocarpus and the allied Malesian genera Prainea, Paratocarpus, and

In this group,the most complex inflorescencesamong the Artocarpeaecan be found, some reminiscent of those in Castilleaeandothersof those of Dorstenieae. The infructescencescan become very large. A second group comprises the monotypic genera AntiaropisandSparattosyce.The inflorescencesof the formerresemble those of the Castilleae and the inflorescencesof the latterresemblethoseof theFiceae.Both have dehiscent drupesexpelling the endocarpbody, a feature not occurring in the other Artocarpeae, but presentin Dorstenieaeand Moreae. The thirdgroupcomprisesthe five neotropicalgenerarevised in the presenttreatment.This grouphas the simplesttype of inflorescenceandshows in variousrespects similaritiesto the Moreae,but the generaarefar moreclear-cutthanthose of the lattertribe.This group of generais distinctlyassociatedwith the SouthAmerican continent,in contrastto the tribeMoreae,which is centered in the northwesternpart of the Neotropics: CentralAmericaandthe northernAndeanregion.

ThegenusBagassawasestablishedbyAublet(1775). Thedescriptionof the species,B. guianensis,was based on juvenile material(with scabrous, 3-fid leaves) and separateinfructescences. Materialin theadultstage(with entireandsmoothleaves)with staminateinflorescences wasdescribedasPipertiliifoliumby Desvaux(1825) and (in the Urticaceae)as Laurea tiliifolia by Gaudichaud (1844); the latter was combined with Bagassa by Benoist (1933). Materialwith adult leaves and pistillate inflorescences was described as B. sagotiana by

Leaves: The lamina is slightly to pronouncedly inequilateral,mostly coriaceous, sometimes subcoriacious to chartaceous.The leaf marginis mostly dentate or denticulate.

with a disjunctdistributionin SouthAmerica,arespecies of (rather)dry forestor shrubvegetation.Sorocea duckeiis an element of varzeavegetation in the Amazon Basin. Three elements can be distinguished: a group of species in CentralAmerica and the Pacific Coastalregions of Colombia and Ecuador:a groupof species in the Amazon Basin, in particularthe upper Amazon Basin: and a small group of species south of the Amazon Basin. Sorocea pubivena and S. guilleminianaarethe most widespreadspecies, occurring in more thanone phytogeographicalregion. The other species have smallerranges of distribution,and some, such as S. jaramilloi, S. ruminata, and S. sarcocarpa, have very smallranges,occupying only a part of the phytogeographicregions they are associatedwith.

AND DISPERSAL POLLINATION

Nothing is known about pollination in Sorocea. None of the features of flowers and inflorescences suggest the occurrenceof wind pollination.Moreover, most species arecomponentsof the understoryof evergreen forest. On the other hand, there are not clear adaptationsto insectpollination,certainlynot to insect pollinationbasedon breeding.The commonoccurrence of pluricellulartrichomes on the perianthof pistillate flowers suggests thatthese trichomesmightplay a role in pollination, as substitutesfor pollen grains. These trichomes are apparentlynutritiousas they provide a substratefor fungi. According to some label data, the fruits (fruiting perianths)are eaten by birds. According to Kubitzki and Ziburski (1994), the fruits (fruitingperianths)of Sorocea duckei float due to buoyancyprovidedby air enclosed by the folded (large) cotyledon.

SYSTEMATICRELATIONSHIPS AND SUBDIVISIONOF THE GENUS

The genus Sorocea is in variousrespects quite distinct.It is the only genus amongthe non-anemophilous ones having predominantlyracemose inflorescences, which may have implications for pollination (see above). It has clearlydefined and ? separatestaminate flowers, in contrastto the genera that areprobablyits closest relatives, such as Clarisia and Batocarpus. Furthermore,the perianthat least in the fruitingstateis intoa lowerpartadnateto theovary clearlydifferentiated and an upperpartfree from the ovary. The genus has been divided into two subgeneraby Burgeret al. (1962: 468): Sorocea and Paraclarisia, the lattercomprising only S. duckei andS. sprucei. In subg. Sorocea,one can recognizea groupwith a spinulose-dentateleaf marginand/ora spinulose acumenof the lamina,comprisingS. bonplandii,S. guilleminiana, DISTRIBUTIONAND ECOLOGY andS. hilarii, as somewhatdistinctfrom the restof the The genus rangesfrom southernMexico to Argen- subgenus. These three species are morphologically tina. It is absent from the West Indies (except for veryclose andoftennot easy to distinguish.In the larger Cura9ao)andpoorlyrepresentedin the Guianas.Most group of species, the marginof the laminais entireor of the species are elements of lowland rainforest, be- varies from entireto dentate,but neitherthe teeth nor ing understorytreeletsor shrubsor canopytrees.Only the acumenof the laminaarespinulose. The species of Soroceatrophoidesis a (sub)montanespecies,although this group areclosely relatedand it is often difficult to it is also found at low elevations.Sorocea bonplandii, distinguish them. The exception is the clear-cut S. in the southernpartof the genus range,andS. sprucei, jaramilloi.

This widespread species is rathervariable in the dimensions, shape, margin,texture,and indumentum of the leaves, and in the shape and dimensions of the fruitingperianth.Specimens with the lower leaf surface hirtellous,subhirsute,or hispidulousarefound in Rio de Janeiro,MinasGerais,andin southernAmazonia In southernAmazonia, leaves with such indumentum areoften relatively large and with the lateralveins impressed above. Except for the spinulose leaf margin, these specimensremindone of large-leavedspecimens of Soroceahirtellasubsp.hirtella.Inbothspecies,large leaves are correlatedwith relatively large fruits. The materialfromPernambucoandParaibahas rathersmall leaves, often with sharplyspinulosemargins;they approachS. hilarii in its leaf characters. Whensterile,SoroceaguilleminianaandS. bonplandii cannotbe distinguished;only if globose-capitatepluricellulartrichomesareabundantlypresenton the lower leaf surface can one be rathersure that the specimen belongsto S. guilleminiana.SterilespecimensofS. hilarii can be distinguishedfromthose of S. guilleminiana by the distinctlyinequilaterallaminaandthenon-spinulose (or very shortlyspinulose)marginandacumenof the lamina. Material of Sorocea guilleminiana and Clarisia ilicifolia is often confused. The latterspecies can be readily recognized by the midribof the laminabeing prominentabove, andby the presenceof uncinatehairs on various parts.

The collections with pistillate inflorescences made by Brand et al. in Colombia (Antioquia)have a subglabrousfruitingperianthand are,therefore,difficult to distinguishfrommaterialof S. trophoidesfrom the same region. Sorocea affinis appearsto be closely relatedto the geographicallyseparatedS. sarcocarpa.

DISTRIBUTION

POLLINATION ANDDISPERSAL REPRODUCTION: Nothingis knownaboutthepollinationof Dorstenia. Severalfeatures,such as shapeof the inflorescence,ap-

causedbythecharpendages, colors,glistening surfaces hairsontheperianths andoftenelsewhereon acteristic theuppersurfaceof thereceptacle,and,in severalcases,

canbeassociated withmyophily; thereareno fragrance, recordsconfirmingit. Visits of beetles have been observedin some species in Camerounand Gabon(pers. comm.Hijman).Onemay wonderwhetherthedifferentiationandvariationin the inflorescencehas any adaptive significanceat all (cf. Berg 1977a). As the staminateandpistillateflowers occurmixed andcrowded,so thatstigmascan get in touchwith pollen, one may assumethatgeitonogamousself-pollination will often happen.Thereis a tendencyfor anthesis of pistillate flowers to preceedthatof staminateflowers. In several species, there is a distinct time lapse betweenanthesisof pistillateandstaminateflowers,but in others, there is no or minimal lapse. Severalspecies kept in greenhousesproduceseeds othersnot.Thisdifferencecannotbe explained profuisely,

Thedistribution of theneotropical Dorstenia flora showssomepecularities. TheNeotropics canbedivided into two (almostexclusive)domains,of whichthe boundaries aredefinedbythedistributions ofD. brasiliensis andD.contrajerva(seemaps,Fig.80.6& 81.8). The areasof these two specieshardlyoverlap.The southeastern domainhasitscenterineasternBrazil,the northwestern domainhasitscenterin northern Central AmericaandtheGreater Antilles.

Thematerialreferredto Dorsteniacarautaehasbeen included in D. lagoensis (Carautaet al., 1978). In the presentrevisionD. lagoensis is regardedas a synonym of D. bowmanianawith a scattereddistributionin the States of Minas Geraisand Rio de Janeiro.Dorstenia bowmanianadiffers from D. carautae in the smaller leaves and inflorescences and in featuresof the indumentum, such as the length of the hairs and the frequency of uncinatehairs. Dorstenia carautae andD. bowmanianaappearto be closelyrelated,butsufficiently distinctto justify recognitionat the species level.
