Examples are given of species pollinated by beetles (cantharophily), which is the predominant mode of the majority of species worldwide, by small or large beetles (both groups having either diurnal or nocturnal flowers with or without thermogenesis), species pollinated by thrips (Thysanoptera), flies (myiophily and sapromyiophily), cockroaches and even bees (melittophily). Adaptational features of floral structures are compared with the behaviour of flower visitors, emphasizing floral rhythm, flower size, petal thickness, stamen structure and odour production. Anaxagorea, the earliest divergent surviving genus in Annonaceae, exhibits floral characters thought to be basal for the family: tissue-rich thick petals that form a pollination chamber; several Anaxagorea spp. exhibit thermogenesis, emit a fruit-like odour and attract small beetles as pollinators. As cantharophily is plesiomorphic in Anaxagorea and in Annonaceae, characters associated with beetle pollination appear imprinted in members of the whole family. Even non-cantharophilous species retain one or more characteristic features of beetle-pollinated species, such as thick petals, flattened and sclerified connective shields or protogynous dichogamy.~{\textcopyright} 2012 The Linnean Society of London, Botanical Journal of the Linnean Society, 2012, 169, 245{\textendash}261.}, keywords = {Anaxagorea, cantharophily, cockroaches, flower structures, melittophily, myiophily, sapromyiophily, thermogenesis, thrips}, isbn = {1095-8339}, url = {http://dx.doi.org/10.1111/j.1095-8339.2011.01209.x}, author = {Gottsberger, Gerhard} } @article {633, title = {Inventory and distribution of the Annonaceae along elevation gradient on Mount Cameroon}, journal = {Journal of Horticulture and Forestry}, volume = {10}, year = {2011}, month = {10/2011}, pages = {307{\textendash}319}, chapter = {307}, keywords = {Annonaceae, elevational distribution, Inventory, Mount Cameroon}, url = {http://www.academicjournals.org/JHF/abstracts/abstracts/abstracts2011/7\%20Oct/Bele\%20et\%20al.htm}, author = {Bele, Mekou Y. and Focho, Derek A. and Egbe, Enow A. and Chuyong, Bindeh G.} } @article {632, title = {Little ecological divergence associated with speciation in two African rain forest tree genera}, journal = {BMC Evolutionary Biology}, volume = {11}, year = {2011}, chapter = {296}, keywords = {African tropics, Annonaceae, Ecological niche modeling, ecological speciation, Isolona, Monodora, species level phylogeny}, doi = {10.1186/1471-2148-11-296}, url = {http://www.biomedcentral.com/1471-2148/11/296}, author = {Couvreur, T.L.P. and Porter-Morgan, H. and Wieringa, J.J. and Chatrou, L.W.} } @article {609, title = {Revision der Arten einiger Anonaceen-Gattungen II}, journal = {Acta Horti Bergiani}, volume = {10}, number = {2}, year = {1931}, pages = {129-341}, keywords = {Anonidium, Cremastosperma, Desmopsis, Fusaea, Heteropetalum, Hexalobus, Malmea, Porcelia, Raimondia, Sapranthus, Uvariodendron, Xylopia}, author = {Fries, R.E.} } @article {608, title = {Revision der Arten einiger Anonaceen-Gattungen I}, journal = {Acta Horti Bergiani}, volume = {10}, number = {1}, year = {1930}, pages = {1-128}, keywords = {Anonidium, Cremastosperma, Desmopsis, Fusaea, Heteropetalum, Hexalobus, Malmea, Porcelia, Raimondia, Sapranthus, Uvariodendron, Xylopia}, author = {Fries, R.E.} } @article {603, title = {A new species of Uvariopsis (Annonaceae), endemic to the Eastern Arc Mountains of Tanzania}, journal = {Blumea - Biodiversity, Evolution and Biogeography of Plants}, volume = {55}, number = {1}, year = {2010}, pages = {68-72}, abstract = {The Eastern Arc Mountains of Tanzania enclose high levels of plant and animal diversity with many yet to be described species.

Several recent studies have suggested that a substantial portion of today\&$\#$39;s plant diversity in the Neotropics has resulted from the dispersal of taxa into that region rather than vicariance, but more data are needed to substantiate this claim. Guatteria (Annonaceae) is, with 265 species, the third largest genus of Neotropical trees after Inga (Fabaceae) and Ocotea (Lauraceae), and its widespread distribution and frequent occurrence makes the genus an excellent model taxon to study diversification patterns. This study reconstructed the phylogeny of Guatteria and inferred three major biogeographical events in the history of the genus: (1) a trans-oceanic Miocene migration from Central into South America before the closing of the Isthmus of Panama; (2) a major diversification of the lineage within South America; and (3) several migrations of South American lineages back into Central America via the closed Panamanian land bridge. Therefore, Guatteria is not an Amazonian centred-genus sensu Gentry but a major Miocene diversification that followed its dispersal into South America. This study provides further evidence that migration into the Neotropics was an important factor in the historical assembly of its biodiversity. Furthermore, it is shown that phylogenetic patterns are comparable to those found in Ocotea and Inga and that a closer comparison of these genera is desirable.

Very few studies have however been conducted in important tropical centers of plant biodiversity like the African rainforests. The phylogeography of a tree species widespread in Central African mature forests, Greenwayodendron suaveolens subsp. suaveolens (Annonaceae), was investigated in the Lower Guinea phytogeographic domain (essentially Gabon and Cameroon) by sequencing an intergenic spacer of the chloroplast genome (trnC-petN1R). A total of 11 polymorphic sites, including nine single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), two insertions/deletions and two inversions, defined 12 haplotypes. The taxon is represented by two sympatric varieties (var. suaveolens and var. gabonica) that carried distinct and relatively divergent haplotypes. These varieties, also well distinguishable morphologically, might therefore represent true biological species. The variety suaveolens, more common and more widespread than the variety gabonica, was represented by ten haplotypes. This taxon showed a weak but statistically significant phylogeographic structure, indicating that two sets of related haplotypes essentially occurred respectively in the northern and the southern hemispheres. These results suggest that the distribution of Greenwayodendron suaveolens subsp. suaveolens, which is currently continuous in the Lower Guinea domain, might have been more fragmented in the past, possibly in relation with Pleistocene forest fragmentation.}, keywords = {Biomedical and Life Sciences}, isbn = {1935-9756}, url = {http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/s12042-010-9041-6}, author = {Dauby, Gilles and Duminil, J{\'e}r{\^o}me and Heuertz, Myriam and Hardy, Olivier} } @article {45, title = {A revision of the African genus Hexalobus (Annonaceae)}, journal = {Systematic Botany}, volume = {36}, year = {2011}, month = {02/2011}, pages = {33-48}, type = {Taxonomic revision}, chapter = {33}, doi = {10.1600/036364411X553108}, url = {http://www.ingentaconnect.com/content/aspt/sb/2011/00000036/00000001/art00005}, author = {Botermans, M. and Sosef, M.S.M. and Chatrou, L.W. and Couvreur, T.L.P.} } @article {50, title = {Monograph of the syncarpous African genera Isolona and Monodora (Annonaceae)}, journal = {Systematic Botany Monographs}, volume = {87}, year = {2009}, pages = {1-150}, author = {Couvreur, T.L.P.} } @article {51, title = {Pollen morphology within the Monodora clade, a diverse group of five African Annonaceae genera}, journal = {Grana}, volume = {47}, number = {3}, year = {2008}, pages = {185-210}, author = {Couvreur, T.L.P. and Botermans, M. and van Heuven, B.J. and Van der Ham, R.
