No entry is required for eligibility. I. Grand Champion - Best Orchid in the Show -[$200.] Orchid flower (s) or orchid plant (in flower) chosen by balloting of the American Orchid Society’s judges. Judges will be asked to select their first and second choices. Each First Choice will be scored with five points & the Second Choice three (3) points. The selection scoring the highest number of points will be designated “Grand Champion.” II. American Orchid Society’s Show Trophy The AMERICAN ORCHID SOCIETY SHOW TROPHY for the most outstanding exhibit may be awarded at the discretion of the A.O.S judges. Must score 80 points or more. The A.O.S. scale of points for judging exhibitions will be followed with emphasis on artistic effect and general consideration of the Show Theme: General Arrangement 35 pts. Quality of Plants/Flowers 35 pts. Variety 20 pts. Labeling 10 pts. The following ten Special Awards (III-XII) will be selected from the respective winning entries in Sections 3 & 4; those Show Award winners in the two Sections will therefore be competing against each other for these ten Best in Show or Special Awards. III. Best in Cattleya Alliance [$50.] IV. Best of Phalaenopsis Group [$50.] V. Best in Vandaceous Alliance (excluding Phalaenopsis) [$50.] VI. Best in Cypripedioideae [$50.] VII. Best in Dendrobieae [$50.] VIII. Best in Oncidiinae [$50.] IX. Best in Cymbidieae [$50.] X. Best of Other Genera [$50.] XI. Best Specimen Plant – Species [$100.] Judging teams will be invited to submit nominations for the best specimen during the course of their assigned judging activity; all plants in competition are eligible. The winner, selected from those nominees, will be determined by AOS judges in a “show-of-hands” vote at the conclusion of show judging. Also applies to Special Award XII. XII. Best Specimen Plant – Hybrid [$100.] 1 Section 2 – The Exhibits Classes 1-4 1. Open Class Exhibit --------------100 square feet 1st Place $100.00; 2nd $75.00. [Individuals or commercial growers may enter this CLASS, though traditionally, individuals choose to enter CLASS 2 for “Hobbyists.” ] 2. Hobbyist Exhibit -----------------25-30 square feet 1st Place $100.00; 2nd $75.00. [Exhibits in this display shall include plants from a single amateur/hobbyist grower. Plants must be entered to be considered for ribbon judging] 3. Society Exhibit ------------------100 sq. ft. (10’ x 10’) 1st Place $100.00; 2nd $75.00. [Exhibit may include plants from many of the named society’s membership; however, plants to be considered for ribbon judging must be individually entered. No parts of the exhibit may be incorporated in adjacent background material, i.e. backdrop cloth or supporting structure, nor may any exhibit plants be placed on the floor in front of or at any margin of the designated space.] 4. Educational Exhibit -------------100 square feet 1st Place $100.00; 2nd $75.00. [Judges shall carefully consider the “educational” component and its message as represented by the display staged; an educational exhibit may be staged without special individual orchids but its presenter may also choose to display plants that can be entered for ribbon judging. An educational display that does not present a message to show viewers/visitors may be disqualified by the Show Committee.] Section 3 – The Individual Plants in Flower Open (Classes > 5-120) Note: To determine correct class for a plant’s entry, start reading down the list of CLASSES beginning of the listings and then enter the plant in the first CLASS in which the species or hybrid is eligible; read the Class description carefully and be especially careful with new nomenclature, i.e. different from that to which we have been accustomed. [In many instances, the CLASSES had to be redefined to conform with the latest changes implemented in orchid nomenclature & classification.] Laeliinae – (Classes > 5-40) Brassavola (excluding Rhyncholaelia) 5.

China 3 Xishuangbanna Tropical Botanical Garden, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Menglun Township, Mengla County, Yunnan province 666303, P.R. China Author for correspondence: Xiao-Hua Jin, [email protected] Abstract The phylogenetic position of two enigmatic Asian orchid genera, Thaia and Tangtsinia, were inferred from molecular data and morphological evidence. An analysis of combined plastid data (rbcL + matK + psaB) using Bayesian and parsimony methods revealed that Thaia is a sister group to the higher epidendroids, and tribe Neottieae is polyphyletic unless Thaia is removed. Morphological evidence, such as plicate leaves and corms, the structure of the gynostemium and the micromorphol- ogy of pollinia, also indicates that Thaia should be excluded from Neottieae. Thaieae, a new tribe, is therefore tentatively established. Using Bayesian and parsimony methods, analyses of combined plastid and nuclear datasets (rbcL, matK, psaB, trnL-F, ITS, Xdh) confirmed that the monotypic genus Tangtsinia was nested within and is synonymous with the genus Cepha- lanthera, in which an apical stigma has evolved independently at least twice.

MARK WHITTEN1,2, KURT M. NEUBIG1 & N. H. WILLIAMS1 1Florida Museum of Natural History, University of Florida Gainesville, FL 32611-7800 USA 2Corresponding author: [email protected] ABSTRACT. Relationships among all subtribes of Neotropical Cymbidieae (Orchidaceae) were estimated using combined matK/ycf1 plastid sequence data for 289 taxa. The matrix was analyzed using RAxML. Bootstrap (BS) analyses yield 100% BS support for all subtribes except Stanhopeinae (87%). Generic relationships within subtribes are highly resolved and are generally congruent with those presented in previous studies and as summarized in Genera Orchidacearum. Relationships among subtribes are largely unresolved. The Szlachetko generic classification of Maxillariinae is not supported. A new combination is made for Maxillaria cacaoensis J.T.Atwood in Camaridium.

Z. flava and Z. sakagutii and another pair of species of Rhomboda, R. moulmei- nensis and R. fanjingensis, are so similar that they are frequently misidentified. In this paper, based on field observations, study of type specimens and protologues, illustrations and comparisons of these two pairs of confused species are provided to enable identification. Key words: Chinese orchids, Rhomboda, Zeuxine Introduction Zeuxine Lindley (1826: 18) and Rhomboda Lindley (1857: 181) belong to subtribe Goodyerinae (Orchidoideae; Cranichideae; Pridgeon et al. 2003a, 2003b). Zeuxine comprises about 80 species distributed in tropical and southern Africa through tropical and subtropical Asia, to New Guinea, northeastern Australia, and the southwestern Pacific islands; with 14 species occurring in China, two of them are endemic (Chen et al. 2009b). Flowers of Zeuxine species are nearly always white or green, but a few are yellow.

    Gulf Coast Orchid Society Newsletter

    Gulf Coast Orchid Society Newsletter June 9, 2013 Our June meeting will be held Sunday, June 9, at 2:00 at the Jeff Davis Community College located at the corner of Runnymeade Rd and Debuys; just north of Pass Rd. We will meet in the main cafeteria and then move to the smaller meeting room for the program. The room that we normally use will be closed due to another meeting. PLEASE DO NOT GO INTO THE REGULAR MEETING ROOM. The Orchid’s 101 meeting led by Glen Ladnier will precede the meeting at 1:30 in the smaller meeting room. This month’s topic will be “It’s all in the roots!” PROGRAM: Glen will also do our main program on Native Orchids of South Mississippi. This will be part power point presentation and part live orchids that Glen will bring in. Glen has been working with native orchids for several years. He is currently working with Crosby Arboretum in their efforts to create a native orchid garden. We will also have several plants to sell at the meeting; some of the great plants Walter Taylor donated for the May auction, some plants donated by Jo Ann Vaz and many blooming Phals and Dendrobium purchased earlier in the year. All plants will be prepriced; you can purchase these plants from the time they get to the meeting (around 1:00 PM) until 1:20 and during the break of the regular meeting. Sales will stop just before the Orchids 101 class starts. They will be covered so no shopping or setting plants aside.

    Epilist 1.0: a Global Checklist of Vascular Epiphytes

    Zurich Open Repository and Archive University of Zurich Main Library Strickhofstrasse 39 CH-8057 Zurich www.zora.uzh.ch Year: 2021 EpiList 1.0: a global checklist of vascular epiphytes Zotz, Gerhard ; Weigelt, Patrick ; Kessler, Michael ; Kreft, Holger ; Taylor, Amanda Abstract: Epiphytes make up roughly 10% of all vascular plant species globally and play important functional roles, especially in tropical forests. However, to date, there is no comprehensive list of vas- cular epiphyte species. Here, we present EpiList 1.0, the first global list of vascular epiphytes based on standardized definitions and taxonomy. We include obligate epiphytes, facultative epiphytes, and hemiepiphytes, as the latter share the vulnerable epiphytic stage as juveniles. Based on 978 references, the checklist includes >31,000 species of 79 plant families. Species names were standardized against World Flora Online for seed plants and against the World Ferns database for lycophytes and ferns. In cases of species missing from these databases, we used other databases (mostly World Checklist of Selected Plant Families). For all species, author names and IDs for World Flora Online entries are provided to facilitate the alignment with other plant databases, and to avoid ambiguities. EpiList 1.0 will be a rich source for synthetic studies in ecology, biogeography, and evolutionary biology as it offers, for the first time, a species‐level overview over all currently known vascular epiphytes. At the same time, the list represents work in progress: species descriptions of epiphytic taxa are ongoing and published life form information in floristic inventories and trait and distribution databases is often incomplete and sometimes evenwrong.

(≡ Hetaeria affinis (Griff.) Seidenf. & Ormerod) has been traced and an epitype is selected for the name as all the available ‘original materials’ fail to depict the diagnostic characters of the species. Key words: CAL, epitype, Goodyera affinis, Goodyerinae, Hetaeria affinis, Orchidaceae, typification. Goodyera affinis Griff. (Orchidaceae) was Herbarium no. 315’) was lost, but they did first described by William Griffith (1851a) not mention where it was actually kept before in ‘Notulae Plantas Asiaticas, vol. 3’ which disappearing. Later Pearce and Cribb (2002) Seidenfaden and Ormerod (Ormerod 2001) indirectly mentioned that the lost holotype was transferred to Hetaeria Lindl. (as H. affinis deposited at K (as ‘holo. K, lost’), whereas (Griff.) Seidenf. & Ormerod). Hetaeria affinis is Averyanov (2008) followed Seidenfaden and characterized by hammer-shaped petals which Ormerod (Ormerod 2001) and did not mention are gibbous on one side towards the dorsal sepal the location of the holotype. During herbarium and hypochile with 1 entire or 3–5-fid appendage consultation at CAL we have found a herbarium on each side. This terrestrial orchid is scarcely sheet (Fig. 1) with two specimens of G. affinis distributed in Bangladesh, Bhutan, China, India, mounted on a single sheet (single preparation).

    Cytotaxonomy of the Monopodial Orchids of the African and Malagasy Regions

    Cytotaxonomy of the monopodial orchids of the African and Malagasy regions J. C. Arends & F. M. Van der Laan Department of Plant Taxonomy and Plant Geography, Agricultural University, Gen. Foulkesweg 37, 6700 ED Wageningen, The Netherlands Abstract The three subtribes which are recognized within the tribe Vandeae are represented in the tropical African and Malagasy regions. All taxa of the Vandeae have a monopodial growth habit. The first subtribe, Sarcanthinae, is mainly Asian-Australasian, but a few of its species occur in Madagascar and in Africa. The other two subtribes, Angraecinae and Aerangidinae, are both represented in the latter two regions. The Angraecinae ischaracterize d by the presence of a short rostellum, but this iselongate d in the Aerangidinae. According to earlier authors there is a correlation between presence of the short rostellum and a basic chromosome number of x= 19i nth e Angraecinae, and between the presence of an elongated rostellum and a basic number of x = 25 in the Aerangidinae. The results presented in this paper are placed in perspective with the chromosome numbers recorded by other authors. From the resulting chromosome number survey it appears that only part of the Angraecinae (Aeranthes, several species of Angraecum. Cryptopus and Jumellea) have a basic number of x = 19; some members of the Angraecinae (other species of Angraecum) were found to have a basic number of x = 21,24 and 25. The Aerangidinae is not characterized by a single basic number of x= 25 but by aserie s ranging from x = 23t o x= 27,o f which x= 23,24 and 25ar e the most frequent.
