Molecular phylogenies based on nuclear and plastid sequences from most of the species indicate hybridization among some of the Southeast Asian species. Fossil-calibrated molecular-clocks suggest that the "Gnetum" lineages now found in Africa, South America and Southeast Asia are the result of ancient long-distance dispersal across seawater.

Who is blamed by Tacitus for provoking a queen of the Celtic Iceni tribe?
|
Title: Buri tribe
Passage: The Buri were a Germanic tribe mentioned in the Germania of Tacitus, where they initially "close the back" of the Marcomanni and Quadi of Bohemia and Moravia. It is said that their speech and customs were like those of the Suebi. Such a statement implies that the Buri had recently come from the direction of the Baltic Sea, as other Germanic settlers in Bohemia and Moravia were newcomers, having driven out the Celtic Boii and taken their lands. In Tacitus, the Buri are not linked to the Lugii.
Title: Boadicea (disambiguation)
Passage: Boadicea was the queen of the British Iceni tribe who led an uprising against the forces of the Roman Empire. The name may also refer to:
Title: Catus Decianus
Passage: Catus Decianus was the procurator of Roman Britain in AD 60 or 61. Tacitus blames his "rapacity" in part for provoking the rebellion of Boudica. Cassius Dio says he confiscated sums of money which had been given by the emperor Claudius to leading Britons, declaring them to be loans to be repaid with interest.
Title: Iceni Way
Passage: The Iceni Way is a collective name for several long distance footpaths running from Knettishall Heath to Hunstanton via the Little Ouse and Great Ouse valleys in the English county of Norfolk. The name comes from the Iceni tribe that once lived in the area.
Title: Dulgubnii
Passage: The Dulgubnii are a Germanic tribe mentioned in Tacitus' "Germania" (Chapter ) as living in what is today northwest Germany. Tacitus describes them being to the north of the Angrivarii and Chamavi, and as having moved from the north into the area once belonging to the Bructeri, between Ems, Lippe, and Weser. In this same area as the Dulgubnii, north of the Chamavi and Angrivarii, were the Chasuarii, and north of these, on the North Sea coast, where the Chauci. The Chasuarii's name is thought to derive from the River Hase which feeds into the middle of the Ems from the east, just northwest of the area associated with the Angrivarii, on the Weser. So from Tacitus it appears that the Dulgubnii probably lived near the Weser.
Title: Boadicea and Her Daughters

Passage: The Nemetes (Ancient Greek: ; German: "Nemeter" ), by modern authors sometimes called Nemeti, were an ancient Celtic tribe living by the Rhine where Ariovistus had led them, the Suebi and other allied Germanic peoples in the second quarter of the 1st century BC. The Roman name for Speyer, "Noviomagus Nemetum", reflects this city's status as the Nemetes' tribal capital. According to Tacitus, they were "unquestionably Germanic". The name of the tribe, however, is Celtic as the name of its main town "Noviomagus" meaning "noviios" 'new' and "magos" 'plain', 'market' (cf. Old Irish "mag" 'plain'), as are those of a number of gods worshipped in their territory, including Nemetona, who is thought to have been their eponymous deity. Both of these names derive from the Celtic root "nemeto-", referring to sacred spaces.
Title: Battle of Camulodunum
Passage: The Battle of Camulodunum, also known as the Massacre of the Ninth Legion, (60 or 61 AD) was the major military victory of the Iceni and their allies over an organised Roman army during the revolt of Boudica against the Roman occupation of Britain.

Attempting to relieve the besieged "colonia" of Camulodunum (Colchester, Essex), legionaries of the Legio IX Hispana led by Quintus Petillius Cerialis, were attacked by a horde of British tribes, led by the Iceni. Possibly 80 of the Roman foot-soldiers were killed in the battle. The event is recorded by the historian Tacitus in his "Annals".
Title: Boudica
Passage: Boudica or Boudicca ( , Latinised as Boadicea or Boudicea , and known in Welsh as Buddug ] ) was a queen of the British Celtic Iceni tribe who led an uprising against the occupying forces of the Roman Empire in AD 60 or 61, and died shortly after its failure.

Passage: The tree ferns are the ferns that grow with a trunk elevating the fronds above ground level. Most tree ferns are members of the "core tree ferns", belonging to the families Dicksoniaceae, Metaxyaceae, and Cibotiaceae in the order Cyatheales. In addition to those families, many ferns in other groups may be considered tree ferns, such as several ferns in the family Osmundaceae, which can achieve short trunks under a metre tall, and particularly ferns in the genus "Cibotium", which can grow ten metres tall. Fern species with short trunks in the genera "Blechnum, Calochleana, Cnemedaria, Culcita" (Europe's only tree fern), "Cystodium, Leptopteris, Lophosoria, Sadleria, Thyrsopteris" and "Todea" could also be considered tree ferns in a liberal interpretation of the term.
Title: Cibotium cumingii
Passage: Cibotium cumingii is a species of tree fern, of the genus "Cibotium". It is named after the 19th century collector, Hugh Cuming. Its apex and young fronds are covered with reddish hairs. It can be found growing in open forest or in hilly areas in the Philippines and in Taiwan.

Title: Cibotium menziesii
Passage: Cibotium menziesii, the hpu u i i or Hawaiian tree fern,) is a species of tree fern that is endemic to the islands of Hawai i. It is named after the Scottish naturalist Archibald Menzies. It is also known as the male tree fern, and "Cibotium glaucum" is deemed the female tree fern due to differences in color.
Title: Cibotium
Passage: Cibotium (from the Greek "kibootion", meaning chest or box) is a genus of 11 species of tropical tree fernsubject to much confusion and revisiondistributed fairly narrowly in Hawai i (four species, plus a hybrid, collectively known as hpu u), Southeast Asia (five species), and the cloud forests of Central America and Mexico (two species). Some of the species currently listed in the literature seem to be synonyms or local-variant subspecies. " Cibotium glaucum", from Hawai i, is the most frequently encountered "Cibotium" species in the horticultural trade, together with its sibling species "Cibotium chamissoi" and the potentially huge "Cibotium menziesii". The remaining Hawaiian "Cibotium", "C. nealiae", is a 1 m dwarf variety, restricted to the island of Kaua i that is never seen in the horticultural trade. Precise identification of "Cibotium" species is difficult, although all have shiny and rather waxy fronds when viewed from above, with varying degrees of powdery-pale blush when seen from underneath. The natural habitat of "Cibotium" is among the dripping trees and stream gullies of the rainforests on Hawai i's windward volcanic slopes.
Title: Ecballium
Passage: Ecballium is a genus of flowering plants in the family Cucurbitaceae containing a single species, Ecballium elaterium, also called the squirting cucumber or exploding cucumber (but not to be confused with "Cyclanthera explodens"). It gets its unusual name from the fact that, when ripe, it squirts a stream of mucilaginous liquid containing its seeds, which can be seen with the naked eye. It is thus considered to have rapid plant movement.
