The fifth chapter of the series about Rudolf Schlechter’s South-American orchids introduces us to those botanists and orchid collectors who travelled and worked in Ecuador and Peru and supplied Schlechter with many of the new orchid species he described. As in previous chapters, the biographies and accomplishments of these travellers are preceded by brief geographical and historical outlines for each of these countries. It is worth mentioning that the lives and orchids of such prominent figures in the orchidology of South America as F.C. Lehmann, W. Hennis, E. Bungeroth and E. Ule, who collected in Ecuador and Peru, have already been mentioned in previous chapters and are therefore omitted here. KEYWORDS/PALABRAS CLAVE: biography, biografía, history of botany, historia de la botánica, Orchidaceae ECUADOR. Ecuador is divided geographically into three Over 1000 km west of the coast of Ecuador, we find continental regions: the lowlands along the Pacific coast the archipelago of the Galapagos, of volcanic origin.

  • Do Orchids Grow in Hawaii? and How!
    Do Orchids Grow in Hawaii? And How! SYNOPSIS This is an historical sketch of the Saga of Orchids in Hawaii. The sequence of events from the incidental introduction of species by the Agriculturists for the Sugar Industry; to their efforts in propagation and culture, hybridizing and germination; to the development of personal nurseries to commercial ranges; and ultimately to the creation of a viable orchid industry, re­ cognized world wide; to the natural formation of orchid societies staging of orchid shows; and finally to the introduction of a system of orchid judging , should bring interesting reading to orchidists, amateur and professional alike. In fact, this could serve as a reference syllabus to keep. DO ORCHIDS GROW IM HAWAII? AMD HOW i Compiled and Edited by Dr. T. David Woo and Wallace K.

  • The Comparative Demography of Invasive Plants
    The Comparative Demography of Invasive Plants Submitted by Kimberley Jane Jelbert: To the University of Exeter as a thesis for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Biological Sciences In June 2018 (uploaded to ORE 3rd Dec 2018) This thesis is available for Library use on the understanding that it is copyright material and that no quotation from the thesis may be published without proper acknowledgement. I certify that all material in this thesis which is not my own work has been identified and that no material has previously been submitted and approved for the award of a degree by this or any other University. (Signature) ……………………………………………………………………………… 1 Abstract Biodiversity, ecosystems, industry and human health are threatened by invasive plant species. The costs of mitigating damages run into billions of pounds per annum. Fundamental to the control of invasive plant species is an ability to predict which species will become invasive. Yet identification of predictive differences between invasive and non-invasive species has proven difficult to pinpoint. In this thesis I identify several weaknesses within published literature, and using field experiments and meta-analyses we address these to find consistent predictors of invasiveness amongst plants. Specifically, I recognize that predictors of invasiveness can be identified by studying plant species in the native range because species may undergo phenotypic and demographic changes following naturalization (Chapters 2 – 5). I also recognize the importance of comparing globally invasive and non-invasive species, and the importance of accounting for phylogenetic relationships so as not to inflate or conceal differences (Chapters 2 – 4). Finally, I investigate whether particular analyses are more appropriate for investigating life history and demographic differences (Chapter 5).

I N V I T E D P A P E R* WHAT IS IN AN ORCHID NAME: A TRIBUTE TO THE EARLY NATURALISTS IN COSTA RICA RUDOLF JENNY Moosweg 9, 3112 Allmendingen, Switzerland [email protected] ABSTRACT. The early history of Costa Rican orchidology was deeply influenced by a number of naturalists, mainly European by birth, who dedicated themselves to explore a still virgin country, bringing back from their trips a treasure of species to be apprehended by science. While some of them where just occasional voyagers and explorers, other establish themselves in Costa Rica in a long and fecund relationship, that raised to the birth of a new generation of national naturalists in the first decades of the nineteenth century. Even if their faces are sometimes unknown, their names are linked forever to the orchid that helped to reveal to science and to humanity. What follows, and using as an excuse the name of some orchids, is a brief overview of the life and deeds of some of these early naturalists, as a tribute to their contribution to the development of Costa Rican orchidology.

These represent 172 genera, 805 species and 34 infraspecific entities at subspecies (2), variety (30) or form (2) level. Additionally, 65 sheets marked as types representing 60 putatively unpublished names are listed in an appendix. Collection data as well as type status and synonyms are provided. References are made to electro- nic resources providing access to full collection metadata as well as high resolution images. Author’s Address Matthias Schultz, Herbarium Hamburgense, Biocenter Klein-Flottbek and Botanical Garden, University of Hamburg, Ohnhorststr. 18, D-22609 Hamburg, email: [email protected] 6 NF 47 | 2013 Matthias Schultz Introduction The Orchidaceae is the largest of the monocot plant families. It is cosmopolitan, but the diversity is highest in the tropics. The family comprises almost 800 genera and more than 20.000 species (Mabberley 2008). Many orchids have been – and still are – much esteemed for their showiness and the Orchidaceae is certainly one of the most important horticultural plant families. Hamburg was the “continental centre of orchi- domania” during the middle of the 19th century second only to the United Kingdom, the global centre of the exaggerated passion for orchids at that time (Poppendieck 2006).
