초록

제주도 해안에서 선인장과의 한국 미기록 식물 Opuntia monacantha Haw.를 처음으로 발견하였다. "왕선인장"으로 명명된 O. monacantha Haw.(선인장과)는 곧추서서 자라며 상부 의가지들이 밑으로 쳐지는 경향이 있다. 그리고, 기존의 "선인장"에 비하여 식물체의 크기나 엽상경이 대형이다. 화피편 뒷면의 중륵에 자주색 줄무늬가 있다. 열매에는 엽침이 존재하지 않으며, 열매의 표면은 자주색을 띠나 과육은 황녹색이다. 종자는 대부분 흔적으로 남아있고 성숙한 종자는 매우 드물다.

An unrecorded cactus species, Opuntia monacantha Haw. (Cactaceae), is newly reported in Korea. It was found growing on the coast of Jeju Island. It is distinguished from other Opuntia species by the following morphological characteristics. It is an erect succulent tree, commonly 2~3 m, but can reach 4 m. It is highly branched at the top and has drooping upper branches. The cladodes are oval to obovate, narrowing basally, and glossy green. It has yellow outer tepals with a reddish median stripe on the back. It produces purple fruit with yellowish green juicy pulp, which contains several rudimentary seeds and very few mature seeds (<2). The Korean name "Wang-seon-in-jang" is given to the species, based on the height of the plants and the large cladodes.
