Vittarioideae worthy of subgeneric rank, while "Rheopteris" had not yet been discovered. "Haplopteris" he explicitly synonymized with "Vittaria" in 1914. Carl Christensen used the name "Vittarioideae" in Verdoorn's "Manual of Pteridology" in 1938, but did not include a description, leaving it nomenclaturally invalid. Ren-Chang Ching raised Vittariaceae to the rank of a family in 1940. The first well-sampled molecular phylogenetic study of the vittarioids was based on the chloroplast gene rbcL. In this study, it was found that the type species of "Monogramma" is embedded in "Haplopteris"; the segregation of "Vaginularia" from "Monogramma" was also supported, as members of "Vaginularia" formed
The Different Forms of Flowers on Plants of the Same Species The Different Forms of Flowers on Plants of the Same Species The Different Forms of Flowers on Plants of the Same Species is a book by Charles Darwin first published in 1877. It is the fifth of his six books devoted solely to the study of plants (excluding "The Variation of Animals and Plants under Domestication"). These writings contributed to Darwin's pursuit of evidence that would support his theory of natural selection. There were only two more books to follow: "The Power of Movement in Plants" (1880) and "The Formation of Vegetable Mould through the Action of Worms" (1881). He
