Wien 103 B 525 - 555 Wien, Dezember 2001 Contributions to a reassessment of Costa Rican Zygopetalinae (Orchidaceae). The genus Kefersteinia RcHB.f. Franco Pupulin* Abstract A revision of the Costa Rican species pertaining to the genus Kefersteinia RcHB.f. is presented. Phylo- genetic relationships of the genus are discussed. Ten species are accepted for Costa Rica and a key to the species is provided, together with references to the types and synonyms, a detailed description, etymology, general distribution and examined specimens in the study area, ecological notes, taxonomic discussion and a composite illustration for each taxon. A new species, Kefersteinia endresii PUPULIN, is described and illu- strated. Lectotypes are selected for Zygopetalum lacteum RcHB.f., Kefersteinia alba SCHLTR., K. micro- charis SCHLTR. and K. parvilabris SCHLTR. Key words: Orchidaceae, Zygopetalinae, Kefersteinia, Kefersteinia endresii, Costa Rica, systematics, taxonomy Introduction Although the Zygopetalinae appear to be a natural group of the Orchidaceae, its divisi- on into several formal subgroups has proven to be difficult. Within the subtribe, delimi- tation of genera is particularly critical in the Chondrorhyncha alliance. Despite the pre- sence in all the genera of the complex of a common variant in the seed type with res- pect to the Maxillaria type (DRESSLER 1981), vegetative and floral characters do not seem to correlate consistently enough to permit the definition of clear generic bounda- ries.

  • Phylogeny, Character Evolution and the Systematics of Psilochilus (Triphoreae)
    THE PRIMITIVE EPIDENDROIDEAE (ORCHIDACEAE): PHYLOGENY, CHARACTER EVOLUTION AND THE SYSTEMATICS OF PSILOCHILUS (TRIPHOREAE) A Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for The Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of the Ohio State University By Erik Paul Rothacker, M.Sc. ***** The Ohio State University 2007 Doctoral Dissertation Committee: Approved by Dr. John V. Freudenstein, Adviser Dr. John Wenzel ________________________________ Dr. Andrea Wolfe Adviser Evolution, Ecology and Organismal Biology Graduate Program COPYRIGHT ERIK PAUL ROTHACKER 2007 ABSTRACT Considering the significance of the basal Epidendroideae in understanding patterns of morphological evolution within the subfamily, it is surprising that no fully resolved hypothesis of historical relationships has been presented for these orchids. This is the first study to improve both taxon and character sampling. The phylogenetic study of the basal Epidendroideae consisted of two components, molecular and morphological. A molecular phylogeny using three loci representing each of the plant genomes including gap characters is presented for the basal Epidendroideae. Here we find Neottieae sister to Palmorchis at the base of the Epidendroideae, followed by Triphoreae. Tropidieae and Sobralieae form a clade, however the relationship between these, Nervilieae and the advanced Epidendroids has not been resolved. A morphological matrix of 40 taxa and 30 characters was constructed and a phylogenetic analysis was performed. The results support many of the traditional views of tribal composition, but do not fully resolve relationships among many of the tribes. A robust hypothesis of relationships is presented based on the results of a total evidence analysis using three molecular loci, gap characters and morphology. Palmorchis is placed at the base of the tree, sister to Neottieae, followed successively by Triphoreae sister to Epipogium, then Sobralieae.

  • Amherst Orchid Society Newsletter May 2016 Online Edition
    The Newsletter of the Amherst Orchid Society Greater Whorled Pogonia An affiliate of the American Orchid Society April Meeting Roger West A small group was present for this meeting. No new news was discussed. We had a speaker this month and she talked about species that were cold and warm growers. Isabel Lopatin focused on species that grew in the two Tropic zones. The Tropic of Cancer and Tropic of Capricorn were the areas that these wildly adaptable orchids grew. In other words, orchids that you could grow either cold or warm. Dendrobiums were the main genera dis- cussed, and the type that the speaker grew in her basement and in windows. The talk was informative as she dis- cussed the growing culture on these supposedly easy to grow plants. The show table was very full for this time of the year and was dominated by five large specimen plants. Look at the list below to see if you can figure out which were grown into specimen plants. Chondrorhynchas Steve Steiner I noticed a plant labeled “Chondrorhyncha discolor” in bud and I thought I could write an article about the genus. I have a book “Huntleyas and related orchids” by Patricia Harding and thought I was all set. I have 2 clones of C. discolor and Chondrorhyncha lendyana as well as a C.discolor hybrid. Imagine my surprise when, according to Ms. Harding, it turned out that none of the plants were still considered Chondrorhynchas. C. discolor is now Warczewiczella discolor. While C. lendyana “Frisky” is now Stenotyla lendyana “Frisky”.

  • 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.

This month Bob Ellis will do another talk on potting Stanhopea, but this time the demonstration will focus on small baskets where the technique can be slightly trickier. If you didn’t go and watch Bob last time, I probably need to tell you than he is an absolute master artist at this basket thing. I am just gob smacked at how easy he makes it look and what an amazingly neat and tidy result he gets. I copy his methods studiously but somehow mine don’t seem to look the same. See if you can figure it out. The main meeting commences at 8pm. After the tea break, our very special guest speaker will be Jody Cutajar whose topic will be “My Brazilian Orchid Odyssey”.

The phylogenetic relationships of the orchid subtribe Zygopetalinae were evaluated using parsimony analyses of combined DNA sequence data of nuclear ITS 1 and 2 (including the 5.8s region and portions of the flanking 18s and 26s regions) and of the plastid trnL intron plus the trnL-F intergenic spacer and the plastid matK. Analyses of the three separate data sets produced highly congruent and moderately supported patterns, so these were combined in a single analysis. Combined analysis of 104 ingroup and two outgroup taxa produced highly resolved cladograms. Zygopetalinae comprises a Zygopetalum grade or clade (pseudobulbs prominent; leaves usually plicate, revolute); a Huntleya grade (pseudobulbs reduced or lacking; leaves conduplicate), including Dichaea, Huntleya, Chaubardia, and the Chondrorhyncha complex, plus Cryptarrhena that is weakly supported as sister to the Huntleya clade; and a Warrea grade. Chondrorhyncha s.l.

    MOLECULAR SYSTEMATICS OF THE GENUS Dichaea (ZYGOPETALINAE: ORCHIDACEAE) By KURT MAXIMILLIAN NEUBIG A THESIS PRESENTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF SCIENCE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA 2005 Copyright 2005 by Kurt Maximillian Neubig This thesis is dedicated to all people of planet Earth. ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I would like to thank my advisor, Norris H. Williams, for his guidance. He also chose my thesis topic and it was an excellent one. I would also like to thank W. Mark Whitten, one of the smartest men I have ever met. Both Norris and Mark have been invaluable contributors to this project and to my education. Walter Judd has been an uncontainable source of enthusiasm for everything botanical. He has also been a generous member of my committee. Franco Pupulin of Lankester Gardens in Costa Rica contributed many vouchered specimens and DNA sources from Costa Rica for this study. His insights into the quirks of taxonomy in Dichaea have been very enlightening. I would like to acknowledge the remarkable generosity of the Portillas of Ecuagenera in Cuenca, Ecuador, who have been most helpful with their amazing collection of Ecuadorian orchids. Also, Bruce Holst allowed me to sample several dozen herbarium specimens for DNA at Marie Selby Botanical Gardens. Mario Blanco has been willing to collect Dichaeas whenever he has been in the field. Barbara Sue Carlsward helped me in so many different ways. She gave me unfathomable insight into computer software, advice about graduate student life in general, and has been a good friend.
