  • A new species of Apiaceae, Angelica reflexa from Daeamsan, Gangwon-do province, Korea is described and illustrated. This new species is closely related to A. genuflexa Nutt. ex Torr. & A. Gray, having such characters as leaf rachis and petiolules refracted strongly, but distinguished from the latter by its regularly serrated leaf margins, glabrous on abaxial leaf veins, and two vittae on the commissural face of the mericarp.

  • It was revaluated about taxonomical position of the Tilingia tsusimensis (Yabe) Kitagawa (Apiaceae) collected from Mt. Gaya, Mt. Geumo, and Mt. Songni in Korea. Its diagnostic features include slightly dorsally compressed mericarps, acute-prominent ribs, ternate leaves, and dimorphic white petals. It is morphologically similar to Cymopterus and Pimpinella in having ternate leaves. It is distinguished from Cymopterus having asymmerty mericarps, 3-4 mericarp ribs, and winged dorsal ribs. Pimpinella differs in having slightly laterally compressed mericarps without ribs and conspicuous calyx teeth. Also, it looks like Angelica with obsolete calyx teeth and multilayer pericarps, but is distinguished by having its broadly winged lateral ribs and strongly dorsally compressed mericarps. Tilingia tsusimensis formed a monophyletic clade or sister group relationship with a genus Angelica based on ITS sequences. Based on the above observations, we conclude that this plant is here referred to T. tsusimensis (Yabe) Kitagawa.

  • Background : As the characterization of medicinal plants is an important aspect of traditional Asian herbal medicine, this study examines the morphological and anatomical characteristics in four fructus form medicinally important plants belonging to the family Apiaceae. Methods and Results : Fruit morphology of four genera was examined using microtome sections and light microscopy. The Anethi Fructus, Anethum graveolens (Siraja) has unique wing-like and membranous lateral ribs that are, approximately $500{\mu}m$ wide. The Coriandri Fructus, Coriandrum sativum (Hoyuja) does not have oil ducts at the dorsal region of the mericarp and differs in the development of the dorsal ribs. The ribs appear upon drying and therefore, consist of primary and secondary ribs. The Foeniculi Fructus, Foeniculum vulgare (Hoehyang) characteristically develops three dominant dorsal ribs and has a strong aromatic fragrance. Finally, the Cnidii Fructus, Torilis japonica (Sasangja) has many oil ducts at the dorsal and carpophores regions and develops many hooked trichomes one the fructus surface. Conclusions : We conclude from this study that each plant has several prominent and distinguishing morphological and anatomical characteristics. Therefore, fruit morphology is very useful for identifying these medicinal plants. In addition, the correct use and herbal name need to be standardized for plants used traditionally in Asian medicine within Korea, China, and Japan.

  • The pollination system of Bupleurum latissimum Nakai (Apiaceae) was investigated in the natural population of Korea. The various insects of 19 species, 11 families, 5 orders visited the flowers of B. latissimum. Episyrphus balteatus and Lasioglossum occidens were considered as the most effective pollen vector which have associated specially with B. latissimum. The visitation frequency peaked at 10 AM - 13 PM and no visitor was recognized during night time. The flowers of B. latissimum last during only three days and they are protandry. It is also confirmed that the flower of B. latissimum is self-compatible and cross-pollination by vectors is critical for successful seed setting.

  • It was revaluated about taxonomic position of Bupleurum latissimum Nakai (Apiaceae) by the cluster analysis, the principal component analysis, and the discriminant analysis. Its diagnostic characteristics include bracteole length longer than umbellules, 16-21 pedicel numbers, plant with evergreen leaves, chromosome number 2n = 16 and cauline leaves with auriculate base. It is morphologically similar to B. euphorbioides in having ovate bracteoles, 16-21 pedicel numbers, chromosome number 2n = 16, and cauline leaves with auriculate base, but distinguished from B. longiradiatum with having linear bracteoles, 7-15 pedicel numbers, and chromosome number 2n = 12. Morphological characters support that Bupleurum latissimum Nakai is a Korean endemic species.

  • The systematic position of Cymopterus melanotiligia (H. Boissieu) C. Y. Yoon in Apiaceae was revaluated based on the ITS sequence data. Its diagnostic characteristics include its asymmerty mericarps, 3-4 mericarp ribs, winged dorsal ribs, and ternate leaves. It is morphologically similar to Tilingia tsusimensis and Pimpinella having ternate leaves. It is distinguished from Ostericum having symmerty mericarps, 5 mericarp ribs, and rounded dorsal ribs. Also it looks like Angelica with broadly winged lateral ribs and strongly dorsally compressed mericarps, but is distinguished by having its conspicuous calyx teeth and unilayer pericarps. Cymopterus melanotiligia formed a different clade group with Cymopterus species distributed in North America based on ITS sequences, and it supports the close relationships with Halosciastrum melanotilingia. Thus, we conclude that this species is here referred to Halosciastrum melanotilingia (H. Boissieu) Pimenov & Tikhomirov.
