摘要:

 本文通过形态学和植物化学的比较研究探讨了鹅绒藤类群的分类等级问题。  化学资料表明,广义鹅绒藤属的地梢瓜组含有萝藦科中甚为独特的黄酮醇成分,而未检出普遍存在于这一类群的C21甾体化合物。  作者认为黄酮醇是新等级地梢瓜属的特征成分。  通过对狭义鹅绒藤属、白前属、地梢瓜属、隔山消属和杯冠藤属的分析,认为隔山消组和杯冠藤组也应恢复其属级地位。

Abstract:

This paper is a continuation of “Chemotaxonomy of Cynanchum and Its Allied
Genera with Notes on the Generic Characteristics of Vincetoxicum”, published in Acta Bota-
nica Yunnanica (11: 41-50, 1989).
     There are other three sections of Cynanchum in “Flora Reipublicae Popularis  Sinicae”
(Vol. 63), which were considered as separate genera by some authors. These sections are Cy-
nanchum Sect. Rhodostegiella, Sect. Seutera and Sect. Cyathella, also of a single corona. They
were not given generic rank as chemical data of Sect. Rhodostegiella were inavailable.  It is
for this reason that we have studied the chemical constituents of this section. A very marvel-
lous result was obtained. No C21 steroidal compounds but flavonols were identified from the
section Rhodostegiella. Some flavones were isolated from Hoya bella of Asclepiadaceae (Bass
et al., 1979), but no report has been given from Cynanchum and the tribe Asclepiadeae up to
now. The family Asclepiadaceae mainly contains C21 steroids, but some genera contain card-
enolides or terpenoids, and only a few genera, such as Cryptolepis and Tylophora, have alka-
loids. The genus Cynanchum sensu Tsiang et P. T. Li, like most members of Asclepiadaceae,
has C21 steroids except the section Rhodostegiella. Flavonols, therefore, may be the characteri-
stic of the section. Considering the corona characteristics and geographical distribution,  we
suggest that the section Rhodostegiella be given generic rank.
     Because of the separation of Vincetoxicum Wolf and Rhodostegiella (Pobed.) C. Y. Wu
et D. Z. Li from Cynanchum sensu Tsiang et P.T. Li, the rank of the sections  Seutera and
Cyathella should be reconsidered. Obviously, the problem of evolution of the sections of Cyn-
anchum sensu Tsiang et P. T. Li is complicated. The corona, chemical constituents, habit, ro-
ot-type are not congruent with one another in evolution.
     The authors support the establishment of the genera Seutera and Cyathella by  Reichen-
bach (1828) and Decne (1838) respectively.
     Taxonomic treatments, including a new status, Rhodostegiella (Pobed.)   C.Y. Wu et D.
Z. Li, and 12 new combinations, are given.
