Trithuria is a genus of small ephemeral aquatic herb that represent the only members of the family Hydatellaceae found in India, Australia, and New Zealand.[1][2] All 13 described species of Trithuria are found in Australia, with the exception of T. inconspicua and T. konkanensis, from New Zealand and India respectively.[3][4] Until DNA sequence data and a reinterpretation of morphology proved otherwise, these plants were believed to be monocots related to the grasses (Poaceae). They are unique in being the only plants besides two members of Triuridaceae (Lacandonia schizmatica and L. braziliana) in which the stamens are centred and surrounded by the pistils; in Hydatellaceae the resulting 'flowers' may instead represent condensed inflorescences or non-flowers.[5]

These diminutive, superficially moss-like, aquatic plants are the closest living relatives of a clade comprising two closely related water-lily families Nymphaeaceae and Cabombaceae.[6] Together, these three families compose the order Nymphaeales in the APG III system of flowering plant classification. Trithuria (Hydatellaceae) diverged from the rest of Nymphaeales soon after Nymphaeales diverged from its sister taxon, although the crown clade evolved relatively recently, in the early Miocene (~19 Ma;[7]). The order as a whole is the sister group of all flowering plants except Amborellales.

Trithuria exhibits a remarkable similarity to Centrolepis and species of both genera were mistaken for members of the other genus.[8]

Taxonomy

[edit]

The genus Trithuria Hook.f. was described by Joseph Dalton Hooker in 1858[3][9] with the type species Trithuria submersa Hook.f.[3] It has two synonyms: In 1888 the genus Juncella F.Muell. ex Hieron. was described[3] without a type designation[10] by Georg Hans Emmo Wolfgang Hieronymus based on previous work by Ferdinand von Mueller.[3] Mueller had invalidly published the nomen invalidum and nomen nudum Juncella tasmanica F.Muell. in 1854.[11][12] Juncella is a nomen illegitimum.[3] In 1904 the genus Hydatella Diels was described by Friedrich Ludwig Emil Diels[13] without a type designation,[14] but the lectotype Hydatella australis Diels. has been designated in 2008.[3] The genus Hydatella was synonymised with Trithuria in 2008.[3]

Trithuria was initially placed in the family Centrolepidaceae Endl.[15] (now synonymous with Restionaceae R.Br.),[16] which is placed in the order Poales Small[17] but it was separated as its own family Hydatellaceae U.Hamann by Ulrich Hamann in 1976[18][13][19] with Hydatella Diels as the type genus. Upon its separation, Hamann stated the new families affinity or placement were still obscure.[13] The correct placement of the family became apparent in 2007, when it was identified as a basal angiosperm lineage.[15] The family Hydatellaceae is now placed in the order Nymphaeales Salisb. ex Bercht. & J. Presl..[20] Alternatively, it is placed in a separate order Hydatellales Cronquist ex Reveal & Doweld validly published by James Lauritz Reveal and Alexander Borissowitsch Doweld in 1999 based on previous work by Arthur Cronquist (see the Cronquist system).[21][22] This is however not widely accepted, as the order Hydatellales is mostly treated as a synonym of Nymphaeales.[20][23][24][25]

Etymology

[edit]

The generic name Trithuria is derived from the Greek words τρεις treis meaning "three", and θυρις thyris meaning "window". It references the dehiscence of the capsule fruit.[28][29]

Cytology

[edit]

The diploid chromosome count of Trithuria inconspicua subsp. inconspicua is 2n = c. 24. The diploid chromosome count of Trithuria submersa is 2n = 56.[30] The diploid chromosome count of the tetraploid species Trithuria konkanensis 2n = 40.[31] The diploid chromosome count of Trithuria australis is 2n = 14.[32]
