Chromosome numbers are reported for 22 genera and 116 species of the Epacridaceae. In the tribe Styphelieae, haploid numbers of 4, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, and 14 occur. This numerical sequence does not represent a continuous siries either of decrease or increase, but is built up from polyploid and aneuploid changes on base numbers of x = 4 and x = 6. Polyploid series on base 4 are found in Cyathodes, Astroloma, and Leucopogon § Pleuranthus, on base 6 in Leucopogon § Perojoa, and on base 7 in… CONTINUE READING
