Diploglottis alaticarpa is a plant in the maple and lychee family Sapindaceae which is endemic to northeast Queensland, Australia. It was first recognised as a distinct species in 1994 and was formally described in 2014.
Description
Diploglottis alaticarpa is an evergreen medium-sized tree up to Шаблон:Cvt tall with a trunk diameter (DBH) up to Шаблон:Cvt. The new growth is Шаблон:Botanygloss (silky) and silvery pink. The compound leaves are arranged alternately on the branches and may reach up to Шаблон:Cvt long including the petiole. They have between 9 and 19 stiff, Шаблон:Botanygloss (hairless) leaflets measuring up to Шаблон:Cvt long by Шаблон:Cvt wide and generally oblong to oblong-elliptic in shape.Шаблон:R
The inflorescence is a sericeous panicle produced in the leaf axils measuring up to Шаблон:Cvt long. The flowers are either staminate (functionally male) or bisexual, up to Шаблон:Cvt long and held on Шаблон:Cvt long pedicels. The Шаблон:Botanygloss is 5-lobed, each of which is about Шаблон:Cvt long and wide.Шаблон:R
The fruit is a yellow/green capsule with 3 segments, 1 or 2 of which may be aborted. It is sparsely covered in minute hairs on the outside, the junctions of the segments are winged in the basal half (i.e. the end attached to the tree). The walls of the capsule are thick and fleshy, and on the inside they are orange and silky hairy. There is 1 seed per matured segment, brown, up to Шаблон:Cvt, and fully enclosed in an orange/red aril.Шаблон:R
Similar species
Diploglottis alaticarpa can be distinguished from the similar species D. bracteata by its silvery pink new growth (versus silvery green for D. bracteata), the midvein of the leaf flush with the blade (vs. flush in a deep groove), and the winged fruit (vs. not winged). Шаблон:R
Phenology
Flowering has been observed in October and November, while fruit have been seen in December and January.Шаблон:R
Taxonomy
This species was first described by the Australian botanist Wendy Elizabeth Cooper, who published her paper (titled Diploglottis alaticarpa W.E.Cooper (Sapindaceae), a new species from Queensland's Wet Tropics) in the Queensland Herbarium's official journal Austrobaileya in 2014. The first collection of this species was made prior to 1994 by the Australian botanist Rigel Jensen, and it was given the provisional name "Sapindaceae (Palmerston Rigel Jensen s.n.)",Шаблон:R however these specimens were lost at some point. Cooper's description is based on herbarium specimens of subsequent collections, as well as her own field observations.Шаблон:RШаблон:Rp
Etymology
The genus name Diploglottis comes from the Neo-Latin words diplo- meaning double, and glottis meaning tongue, which is a reference to the two tongue-like scales on the petals.Шаблон:R The species epithet alaticarpa created from the Latin words alatus meaning winged, and carpus meaning fruit. It is a reference to the fruit that is distinctly winged, a characteristic that had not been observed in species of Diploglottis prior to that point.Шаблон:R
Distribution and habitat
This species inhabits well developed rainforest on basalt soils, where it is an understorey tree. The natural range is very small, limited to a part of the Wooroonooran National Park between the North and South branches of the Johnstone River, at altitudes from Шаблон:Cvt to Шаблон:Cvt.Шаблон:R The estimated area of occupancy is just Шаблон:Cvt.Шаблон:RШаблон:Efn
Conservation
This species is listed by the Queensland Government's Department of Environment, Science and Innovation as least concern.Шаблон:R Шаблон:As of, it has not been assessed by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN).
