Lyonothamnus Gray is a monotypic genus of evergreen trees endemic to California’s Channel Islands. There is one species, L. floribundus, with two subspecies, ssp. floribundus and ssp. asplenifolius. Subspecies floribundus has simple and entire‐margined leaves, while leaves of ssp. asplenifolius are pinnate and composed of three to seven primary segments. Despite its restricted modern occurrence, three fossil species have been described from Neogene paleofloras in the far western United States. Lyonothamnus mohavensis Axelrod is known from California; L. parvifolius (Axelrod) Wolfe and L. cedrusensis Axelrod, from Nevada. However, the size ranges used to segregate these species were all found to fall within the range of L. parvifolius from Stewart Valley, Nevada. Study of intact leaves reveals that the combination of (1) number of primary segments, (2) length of primary segments, (3) number of medial secondary segments per primary segment, and (4) lengths and widths of medial secondary segments is important in segregating species. Using these characters, L. parvifolius and L. wolfei Erwin et Schorn sp. nov. are recognized from Nevada and Oregon, and two species, L. mohavensis and L. axelrodii Erwin et Schorn sp. nov., from California. This renewed taxonomy within an updated temporal framework provides an important first step toward understanding the evolution, diversity, paleoecology, and paleobiogeographic history of this unusual member of the Rosaceae.

Lyonothamnus A 的修订。来自北美西部新近纪的灰色(蔷薇科)

Lyonothamnus Gray 是加利福尼亚海峡群岛特有的常绿乔木的单型属。有一种 L. floribundus,有两个亚种 ssp。floribundus 和 ssp。无花果。floribundus 亚种具有简单和全边缘的叶子,而 ssp 的叶子。asplenifolius 是羽状的,由三到七个主要部分组成。尽管现代发生率有限,但在美国西部的新近纪古植物群中已经描述了三种化石物种。Lyonothamnus mohavensis Axelrod 已知于加利福尼亚;L. parvifolius (Axelrod) Wolfe 和 L. cedrusensis Axelrod,来自内华达州。然而,用于分离这些物种的大小范围都被发现属于内华达州斯图尔特谷的 L. parvifolius 范围。对完整叶片的研究表明 (1) 初级叶节数的组合,(2) 初级节段的长度,(3) 每个初级节段的中间二级节段的数量,以及 (4) 中间二级节段的长度和宽度在分离物种中很重要。使用这些特征,L. parvifolius 和 L. wolfei Erwin et Schorn sp。十一月 来自内华达州和俄勒冈州,还有两个物种,L. mohaveensis 和 L. axelrodii Erwin et Schorn sp。十一月,来自加利福尼亚。这种在更新的时间框架内更新的分类法为了解蔷薇科这个不寻常成员的进化、多样性、古生态学和古生物地理历史迈出了重要的第一步。wolfei Erwin et Schorn sp. 十一月 来自内华达州和俄勒冈州,还有两个物种,L. mohaveensis 和 L. axelrodii Erwin et Schorn sp。十一月,来自加利福尼亚。这种在更新的时间框架内更新的分类法为了解蔷薇科这个不寻常成员的进化、多样性、古生态学和古生物地理历史迈出了重要的第一步。wolfei Erwin et Schorn sp. 十一月 来自内华达州和俄勒冈州,还有两个物种,L. mohaveensis 和 L. axelrodii Erwin et Schorn sp。十一月,来自加利福尼亚。这种在更新的时间框架内更新的分类法为了解蔷薇科这个不寻常成员的进化、多样性、古生态学和古生物地理历史迈出了重要的第一步。
