優質網站介紹~黑胡桃部落格

上次介紹了苔蘚花園,今天再介紹另一個優質網站:黑胡桃部落格
首先感謝黑胡桃部落格版主大大的首肯,讓大家可以接觸到一個充滿熱情的網站
每篇網誌都很值得欣賞喔
關於苔蘚的部分,可以參考該部落格2010.12~2011.3的網誌
不管是鏡頭特寫或手繪部分,都令人賞心悅目喔!

名正則言順也~「有獎徵名」揭曉囉

大家好~前陣子「有獎徵名」活動,雖大家反應和室外溫度成強烈反比,但也終究是激盪出了共識與成果啦。今天且容小弟我公布一下結果:
學會名稱:臺灣苔蘚學會(The Bryological Society of Taiwan)
刊物名稱:苔弦(BryoString)
學會名稱當然就一目了然,但刊物名稱則大有學問囉~BryoString 是新英文名,Bryo指苔蘚人及植物,String是指苔蘚人觀念及植物演化分類系統雖一起糾結疊加,但科研能互通有無,清楚又明白,一點都沒有障礙或干擾,一起努力朝向地球苔蘚圈(BryoSphere)自然系統真理的大道,此特性一如量子重力學的弦論一樣,此弦具有一即一切,一切即一的智慧或科學覺,從我們苔蘚宇宙系統之至大繁雜到我們思想之細微求真,正如同粗細成片來去自在波動之弦一樣,我們世世代代永遠都在這根弦上探索、微調並感受這當下和諧的振動。啊!夠玄、夠弦、夠炫、夠旋、夠蘚吧!苔蘚人–苔弦人!(以上轉自名稱提供者~林善雄教授的闡釋)。
另外~支持者Jia-Dong Yang認為BryoString還把學會的英名(The Bryological Society of Taiwan)縮寫BST包含在裡面,加上ring再既有環環相扣生生不息的意義,又有團結的意涵。
綜合大家的意見及看法後,我們學會&刊物名稱就此敲定啦~感謝大家參與!
PS:有獎徵名的獎品,煩請贊助者Jia-Dong Yang頒贈給名稱提供者Dr.Lin囉!

有獎徵<名>活動開始囉

事 由:因應苔蘚同好擬申請成立學會,故想集思廣益,廣徵芳名。
對 象:不管你是苔蘚愛好者或是路人甲乙丙,都歡迎提供建議。
獎勵方式:凡提供合適名稱者,皆可獲贈精美禮物一份,入選者,再加贈神秘
禮物一份(獎品皆由Jia-Dong Yang大德熱情贊助)。

範例:就由才疏學淺的小弟我先現醜了:
A:正經八百類:中華民國苔蘚植物學會、中華民國苔蘚研究學會、苔蘚同好會
B:一般類:苔胞學會、苔蘚家族學會、苔友會、蘚友會、苔蘚新視界
C:KUSO類:「苔」灣寶「蘚」學會、「苔」灣探「蘚」研究會、尋苔探蘚學會,福爾MOSS同好會

唉~不才我肚子沒多少墨水,只能擠出這些了~等待其他大德提供更好更響亮的名稱囉~

 (薄葉陳氏苔、陳氏蘚)

A mundivagat species spreads by human agency through rhizoid-borne brood bodies in the soil diaspore bank; plants cleistocarpous, anacrogynous; lamina cells epapillose; leaf margin plane above, sharply crenulate to irregularly dentate above with sharp mid-marginal wall projections usually ending in a weak simple papila; marginal cells often smaller than medial; thin costa ending before apex; leaf apex with a brown thick-walled apiculus; costal section with epidermal cells and guide cells appearing homogenous, dorsal stereid band hardly differentiated, ventral stereid band absent.
   
        This is the third report of the species Leptophascum leptophyllum (Müll. Hal.) J. Guerra & Cano from Taiwan. Prviously discovery of Chenia leptophylla (Müll. Hal.) R.H. Zander ( = L. leptophyllum) inTaiwan was first made by Chiang and Hsu (1997), on the base of Yeliu collection of Dr. Hironori Deguchi who visited Taiwan in Jan. 1989, and later by Chao-Rong Chen (2008) while he studied his Master thesis of “Bryophyte inventory on hiking trails of Mt. Shihman”.

Distribution in Taiwan: Taipei Co., Yeiliu (Deguchi s.n. in HAST); Taoyuan Co., Mt. Shihman (Chao-Rong Chen-67a, 68 in TUNG, NHCUE); Nantou Co., Tsaotun (Kuei-Yu Yao-4322 in TUNG, TAIE).

Range: Cosmopolitan.
