Graduate student Karl Vincent, under the supervision of                    faculty adviser Dr. Noel Holmgren of the New York Botanical                     Garden and City University of New York, plans a comprehensive                   study of the morphology, chromosome constitution, flavonoid                     chemistry, and pollination relationships of an estimated ten                    species of the genus Penstemon in western United States.  New                   morphological features will be studied using scanning electron                  microscopy; these characters will be intergrated with chemical                  and chromosomal ones to construct a reliable classification of                  the group and determine evolutionary relationships.  Field                      studies will test the association of particular pollinating                     insects (bees, wasps, and flies) with particular floral forms in                the different species.  Results of the project will include an                  improved taxonomy of these plants and insight into the adaptive                 evolution of floral form.
