26-499: A cylindrical spike and a terete scape") or Nepeta floribus interrupte spicatis pedunculatis (meaning " Nepeta with flowers in a stalked, interrupted spike"). In Species Plantarum , these cumbersome names were replaced with two-part names, consisting of a single-word genus name, and a single-word specific epithet or "trivial name"; the two examples above became Plantago media and Nepeta cataria , respectively. The use of binomial names had originally been developed as
39-591: A kind of shorthand in a student project about the plants eaten by cattle. After the specific epithet, Linnaeus gave a short description of each species, and a synonymy . The descriptions were careful and terse, consisting of few words in small genera; in Glycyrrhiza , for instance, the three species ( Glycyrrhiza echinata , Glycyrrhiza glabra and " Glycyrrhiza hirsuta ", respectively) were described as " leguminibus echinatis ", " leguminibus glabris " and " leguminibus hirsutis ". Because it
52-490: A third edition in 1764, although this "scarcely differed" from the second. Further editions were published after Linnaeus' death in 1778, under the direction of Karl Ludwig Willdenow , the director of the Berlin Botanical Garden ; the fifth edition was titled "fourth edition" and was published by Willdenow in four volumes, 1798 (1), 1800 (2), 1801 (3 ), 1803 (3 ), 1804 (3 ), 1805 (4 ), 1806 (4 ), rather than
65-516: A thousand genera, which were grouped into 24 classes, according to Linnaeus' sexual system of classification. There are no descriptions of the genera in Species Plantarum ; these are supplied in the companion volume Genera Plantarum ( lit. ' the genera of plants ' ), the fifth edition of which was printed at a similar time to the first edition of Species Plantarum . Linnaeus acknowledged his "sexual system"
78-618: Is a genus of flowering plants in the family Apocynaceae . It has a pan-tropical distribution, found in Asia, Africa, Australia, North America, South America, and a wide assortment of oceanic islands. These plants are evergreen shrubs and small trees growing to 1–15 m tall. The leaves are opposite , 3–25 cm long, with milky sap; hence it is one of the diverse plant genera commonly called " milkwood ". The flowers are fragrant, white, 1–5 cm in diameter. The cultivar T. divaricata cv. 'Plena', with doubled- petaled flowers,
91-476: Is a book by Carl Linnaeus , originally published in 1753, which lists every species of plant known at the time, classified into genera . It is the first work to consistently apply binomial names and was the starting point for the naming of plants . Species Plantarum was published on 1 May 1753 by Laurentius Salvius in Stockholm, in two volumes. A second edition was published in 1762–1763, and
104-766: Is a popular houseplant . Some members of the genus Tabernaemontana are used as additives to some versions of the psychedelic drink ayahuasca ; the genus is known to contain ibogaine (e.g. in bëcchëte , T. undulata ), conolidine (present in minor concentration in T. divaricata ) and voacangine ( T. alba , T. arborea , T. africana ). Because of presence of coronaridine and voacangine in Mexican Tabernaemontana species, those plant could be used in economic production of anti-addictive alkaloids especially ibogaine and ibogamine. T. sananho preparations are used in native medicine to treat eye injuries and as an anxiolytic , and T. heterophylla
117-705: Is the first work in which binomial nomenclature was consistently applied, Species Plantarum was chosen as the "starting point" for the nomenclature of most plants (the nomenclature of some non-vascular plants and all fungi uses later starting points). Species Plantarum contained descriptions of the thousands of plant species known to Linnaeus at the time. In the first edition, there were 5,940 names, from Acalypha australis to Zygophyllum spinosum . In his introduction, Linnaeus estimated that there were fewer than 10,000 plant species in existence; there are now thought to be around 400,000 species of flowering plants alone. The species were arranged in around
130-472: Is used to treat dementia in the elderly. Conolidine may be developed as a new class of pain killer. Caterpillars of the oleander hawk-moth ( Daphnis nerii ) have been found to feed on the pinwheelflower ( T. divaricata ). The genus was described by Carl Linnaeus and published in Species Plantarum 1: 210–211 in 1753. The type species is T. citrifolia . The genus name commemorates
143-545: The "father of German botany" Jakob Theodor von Bergzabern , a.k.a. Jacobus Theodorus Tabernaemontanus, Tabernaemontanus being a compressed form of the original Medieval Latin name ( Tabernae Montanus ) of the botanist's home town of Bergzabern - both the Latin and the German forms of the town's name meaning "tavern(s) in the mountains".

#1732776629658156-555: The dates printed on the volumes themselves. Species Plantarum was the first botanical work to consistently apply the binomial nomenclature system of naming to any large group of organisms (Linnaeus' tenth edition of Systema Naturae would apply the same technique to animals for the first time in 1758). Prior to this work, a plant species would be known by a long polynomial, such as Plantago foliis ovato-lanceolatis pubescentibus, spica cylindrica, scapo tereti (meaning " plantain with pubescent ovate-lanceolate leaves,
