July 21, 2018 Vol. 38, No. 10 - June-July, 2018 Genesee Region Orchid Society, Inc. http://www.geneseeorchid.org NEXT MEETING: The Picnic! July 21, 2018 ur Annual Picnic is the final GROS meeting Obefore we break for our summer vacation: there are no other meetings in July or August. The Picnic will be held on Saturday, July 21st this year. The location will be at Fran Murphy’s greenhouse in Victor, NY. Things get started around Noon, more or less. Please watch your email for the address and for directions. In the spirit of maintaining some sort of privacy, we are not splashing Fran’s address all over the Web. t will be a “simplified” sort of picnic this year, more of a tapa or appetizer (and desserts, of course) party. There will be a show table for your blooming orchid plants, and a “garage sale” I for members, of orchids and related supplies – no commission charged on sales at this spe- cial picnic meeting, as is our tradition. lso, the summer is a good time to renew your membership in the club, if you have not already done so. Click on the “Vendors & Links” pull down tab in the menu area on our A website, and click on FORMS. You can download a form to fill out and either bring to the Picnic or mail in to our post office box. If you renewed at our last show, the April meeting, or at the May meeting, you are already renewed for this (next) year, 2018-2019. he Picnic is free to all GROS members and their families. The weather is usually pretty good, and who knows what surprises Fran may have in store! T Don’t forget your flowering plants for the summer edition of IN THIS ISSUE: the Show Table.

COLLINS 2 & SUZANNE KO P TU R 2 1Fairchild Tropical Botanic Garden, 2121 SW 28th Terrace Ft. Lauderdale, Florida 33312 2Department of Biological Sciences, Florida International University, Miami, FL 33199 3Author for correspondence: [email protected] ABST R A C T . Eulophia graminea, a terrestrial orchid native to Asia, has naturalized in southern Florida. Orchids naturalize less often than other flowering plants or ferns, butE. graminea has also recently become naturalized in Australia. Plants were found growing in five neighborhoods in Miami-Dade County, spanning 35 km from the most northern to the most southern site, and growing only in woodchip mulch at four of the sites. Plants at four sites bore flowers, and fruit were observed at two sites. Hand pollination treatments determined that the flowers are self compatible but fewer fruit were set in selfed flowers (4/10) than in out-crossed flowers (10/10). No fruit set occurred in plants isolated from pollinators, indicating that E. graminea is not autogamous. Pollinia removal was not detected at one site, but was 24.3 % at the other site evaluated for reproductive success. A total of 26 and 92 fruit were found at these two sites, where an average of 6.5 and 3.4 fruit were produced per plant. These fruits ripened and dehisced rapidly; some dehiscing while their inflorescences still bore open flowers. Fruit set averaged 9.2 and 4.5 % at the two sites.

Transnordestina, s.n., 44036-900, Feira de Santana, Bahia, Brazil; E-mail: [email protected] Abstract In the present paper, I propose three new combinations in Guarianthe as a result of finding previously ignored binomials and correct misinterpretation of the articles on hybrid names of the International Code of Nomenclature. The correct names for the species and nothospecies up to now known as Guarianthe patinii and Guarianthe ×guatemalensis are, respectively, Guarianthe hennisiana and Guarianthe ×laelioides. The infraspecific combination Guarianthe ×laelioides f. pachecoi is proposed for Cattleya pachecoi. Finally I propose lectotypes for several names. Resumen Se proponen tres nuevas combinaciones em Guarianthe como resultado del descubrimiento de binomios previamente ig- norados y para corregir errores en la interpretación del Código Internacional de Nomenclatura Botánica.

The greatest numbers are found in the tropics with fewer than 20 species normally found in the United States and Canada. Hummingbirds seem particularly attracted to many species of the genera Elleanthus, Cochlioda, and Comparettia.

    APPENDIX A list of Orchid Books TIM WING YAM, BENJAMIN SINGER, CHOY SIN HEW, TIIU KULL, IRINA TATARENKO, AND JOSEPH ARDITTI 279 280 T.W. Yam et al. Two private libraries, Benjamin Singer’s (which he donated to the American Orchid Society) and Joseph Arditti’s (its future is yet to be decided, it may be donated to an academic or scientific institutions or sold), served as primary sources for this list. However other sources were also used. The use of multiple sources increased the number of books which are listed but may have introduced errors or imperfections for following reasons. One and the same book may have been listed under different names erroneously. Names of authors may have been misspelled. When books have more than one author, the order of authors may have been presented differently in different lists and/or one or more names may have been omitted, added or misspelled. A book may have been published under different names in more than one country. Books are sometimes published by one publisher in one country and another in a different one. Spelling errors in different lists Translations Different editions Lack of information Conventions used in spelling names like “de” and “van.” Erroneous assumptions regarding Chinese surnames. The Chinese traditions is to list surname first, as for example, Yam Tim Wing which may end up incorrectly as Wing, Y. T. in some lists compiled in the West and correctly as T. W. Yam in others. Only the last names of some authors are listed. Some entries listed as books may in fact be no more than reprints.

  • Species Data Sheet Laelia Anceps Lindl., Edwards's Bot
    Species Data Sheet Laelia anceps Lindl., Edwards's Bot. Reg. 21: t. 1751 (1835) [LAY-lee-ah AN-seps] This laelia, the most common from Mexico, gets its name from the two-edged flower stalk. Also, the pseudobulbs are distinctly two- edged and are broadly ribbed on the two opposite sides, resulting in a flattened, diamond-like cross section. This species has sometimes been called the “Purpurata of the North” in reference to C. purpurata, one of the most common cattleyas from Brazil. It has long been popular and has survived well in cultivation for more than a century. In Mexico it has been referred to as el toro. The single, rearely two, leaves are oblong-lanceolate, of heavy texture, 15-20 cm. long and of a light green color. The flower stalk rises to as much as 3 ft. (almost 1 m.) and bears up to five flowers. The sepals and petals are usually a bright rose-purple with the lip a dark rich reddish purple. The throat is lighter in color on the sides and white centrally with radiating puple lines. There may be a definite yellow patch on the disc, or the white of the throat may be accentuated. Three central Laelia anceps ‘SanBar Gloriosa’ FCC/AOS thickend veins form a callus that Nov 1984, NS 12.0 cm is bright yellow in color, and terminates on the disc in either the yellow or white area. Many color forms have been described over the years and current Mexician research indicates that this species may be a complex of three, four, or more separate speccies and not simply a single entity.
