锦葵情报网站(Malvaceae Info)由植物学家Stewart R. Hinsley创建并维护,是全球领先的锦葵科(Malvaceae)植物专业知识数据库。该网站涵盖锦葵科sensu APG的植物学及园艺学信息(包括传统Bombacaceae以及Sterculiaceae/Byttneriaceae和Tiliaceae的大部分类群),同时提供有关锦葵目(Malvales)中相关科目的资料及通用植物学内容。网站创建于2004年,至今持续更新,是植物学研究者和园艺爱好者查询锦葵科植物的重要参考资源。

锦葵科概述

传统锦葵科(Malvaceae sensu strictu)包括锦葵属(Malva)、荷苞牡丹属(Abutilon)、棉花属(Gossypium)、芙蓉属(Hibiscus)等植物。扩展后的锦葵科(Malvaceae sensu APG)还包括猴面包树属(Adansonia)、轻木属(Ochroma)、吉贝属(Ceiba)、可乐果属(Cola)、可可属(Theobroma)、黄麻属(Corchorus)等,涵盖纤维、油料、药用、木材及园艺广泛价值。网站提供按字母索引的俗名检索(Index to Vernacular Names),覆盖全球多种语言对锦葵科植物的称呼。

分类体系与属属描述

网站详细介绍了锦葵科的分类学架构,包括Byttneriina和Malvatheca两大主要分支、梧桐亚科(Sterculioideae)以及多个族的概述,包括Fremontodendreae、Gossypieae、Lasiopetaleae和Malveae族,以及Malva和Plagianthus联盟。网站还提供属级描述,包括Althaea(蜀葵属)、Alyogyne、Asterotrichion、Corchorus(黄麻属部分)、Fremontodendron、秦氏木属(Chiranthodendron)、Hibiscus(芙蓉属部分)、Hoheria、Howittia、Lagunaria、Lavatera、Lawrencia、Malope、Malva(锦葵属)、Malvella、Modiola、Napaea、Pentapetes、Plagianthus、Thepparatia和Trochetiopsis等属。

数字标本馆与植物图鉴

数字标本馆(Digital Herbarium)提供物种、变种、变型和栽培品种的详细图文描述,涵盖锦葵科各属植物。植物画廊(Malvaceae Gallery)收录锦葵科植物的精选摄影图片,按属分类展示。网站还包含化石标本板块(Malvaceous Fossils),记录锦葵科植物的化石证据,包括化石植物本身、木材、叶片、花朵、果实、花粉等不同类型的化石记录。

经济用途与文献资料

经济用途板块(Economic Uses)系统介绍了锦葵科植物作为纤维(木槿、黄麻等)、食物及饮品(可可、可乐果等)、药材、木材的用途,同时也警示部分物种的有毒性和过敏原风险,以及其作为杂草或入侵物种的情况。文献板块(Literature)收录了19世纪植物学文献中与锦葵科相关的资料摘录及翻译,涵盖植物学各领域的珍贵历史文献。
