The Dipsacaceae (Dipsacoideae) are a subfamily in the plant family of Honeysuckle (Caprifoliaceae) within the order of the carding-like (Dipsacales). The Dipsacoideae used to be a separate family of the Dipsacaceae Juss. considered.

description

Illustration of the meadow scabious ( Knautia arvensis )

These are annual or biennial or perennial herbaceous plants and, more rarely, subshrubs . The ever opposite leaves are mostly undivided. Stipules they do not.

A particularly characteristic feature of the cardaceae is the head-shaped inflorescence , which is very similar to that of the daisy family , and how it is surrounded by bracts (→ Pseudanthium ). The structure of the flowers differs considerably, however: the hermaphrodite flowers are four or five-fold, with double perianth . The four- or five-lobed flowers, often strongly zygomorphic on the edge of the head, are often surrounded by an outer calyx. The outer calyx consists of two intergrown pre-leaves. The calyx and the outer calyx are almost always dry-skinned and bristly. The petals are fused together. The two carpels are one under constant ovary grown. The mostly four (rarely two to three) stamens are not fused to form a tube. They form solitary closing fruits , called achenes .

Site conditions

The majority of the species can be found in dry or at least periodically dry, open areas such as steppes or dry grasslands .

The subfamily Dipsacoideae was set up in 1836 by Amos Eaton in A Botanical Dictionary , 4th Edition, p. 36 under the name "Dipsaceae". Type genus is Dipsacus L. A synonym for Dipsacoideae Eaton is Dipsacaceae Juss.

The species are distributed from the temperate to subtropical areas of Eurasia and Africa as well as in tropical and southern Africa. The main area of ​​distribution is the Mediterranean region and Asia Minor .

In the subfamily of the cardiac plants (Dipsacoideae Eaton ) there were earlier 11, since 2013 there are 14 genera with around 290 species:

  • Bassecoia B.L.Burtt (Syn .: Pterocephalodes V. Mayer & Ehrend. ): The three types are common in China , Thailand and the Himalayan region. Among them:
    • Bassecoia hookeri (CBClarke) V. Mayer & Ehrend. (Syn .: Pterocephalodes hookeri (CBClarke) V. Mayer & Ehrend. , Pterocephalus hookeri (CBClarke) Diels ): It iswidespreadin southwestern China and in the Himalayan region with Bhutan, Sikkim and Nepal.
  • Scale heads ( Cephalaria Schrad. Ex Roem. & Schult. ): They are widespread with about 65 species mainly in the Mediterranean area and Asia Minor and they also occur from West to Central Asia and in southern Africa.
  • Cardiards ( Dipsacus L. , Syn .: Simenia Szabó ): The range of the approximately 20 species is in western Europe, in the Mediterranean area and in southern and eastern Asia.
  • Widow flowers ( Knautia L. , Syn .: Trichera Schrad. Ex Roem. & Schult. ): The range of the approximately 60 species is in Europe and around the Mediterranean in western Africa and south-western Asia.
  • Grass cabioses ( Lomelosia Raf. , Syn.:, Scabiosiopsis Rech. F. , Tremastelma Raf. ): Of the almost 40 species, around half are distributed in Europe. Here is a selection:
  • Pseudoscabiosa Devesa (Syn .: Scabiosa sect. Asterothrix Font Quer ): The approximately three species are common in the Mediterranean area.
  • Pterocephalidium G.López : It contains only one species:
  • Pterocephalus Adans. : The 25 or so species are distributed in the Mediterranean region to tropical Africa and via Central Asia to China (only two species).
  • Pterothamnus V. Mayer & Ehrend. : It contains only one type:
    • Pterothamnus centennii (MJCannon) V. Mayer & Ehrend. : This endemic is only known from the type location at an altitude of about 2000 meters in "Manica e Sofala, Manica Serra Zuira" in Mozambique .
  • Marsh ( Scabiosa L. , Syn .: Asterocephalus tin , sometimes with Sixalix Raf. ): The circulation area of about 100 species is preferably in the Mediterranean region of Europe, Asia and Africa.
  • Pycnocomon Hoffmanns. & Link According to G.Domina, the genus is a synonym of Lomelosia Raf.
  • Sixalix Raf. (sometimes in Scabiosa L. ): It contains several species, including:
    • Velvet scabiosis ( Sixalix atropurpurea (L.) Greuter & Burdet (Syn .: Scabiosa atropurpurea L. )): It occurs in the Canary Islands and Madeira, in North Africa, Southern Europe and the Middle East and is a neophyte in the Azores.
    • Sixalix doppelcoides (Desf.) Raf. : It occurs only in Algeria and Tunisia.
  • Succisa Haller : There are around three types:
  • Succisella Beck : The five or so species are common in Europe.
