ORCHIDACEAE NEOTROPICALES, II During The
ORCHIDACEAE NEOTROPICALES, II De orchidaceis principaliter colombianis notutae. BY RICHARD EVANS SCHULTES During the past fifteen or twenty years, plant exp.oration in Co- lombia has been greatly intensified. The number of collections, espe- cially from the high Andean regions of the country, is now very much more comprehensive; and monographic. and floristic proj ects should find in this trend strong impetus and keen encouragement. The very task of routine identification of plant collections often uncovers sig- nificant intorrnation. Frequently, species or genera turn up which are new either to Colombia or to a given phytogeographic province of the country. Some of the exploration along frontier regions has resulted in the discovery in Colombia of species known only from neighbouring co- untries. This is especially so in the case of the orchids which have been collected in eastern or Amazonian Colombia, many of which have been reported hitherto only from Brazil or Peru. There is every reason to believe that the total number of orchids known from Co- lombia will be markedly increased as recent collections receive cri- tical attention. In 1920, Schlechter (Schlechter, R. in Repert. Sp Nov. Beih. 7 (1920) listed as known from Colombia 1293 species of orchids. The f'o'ilowing notes, chiefly on Colombian species, are based upon material preserved in the Orchid Herbarium of Oakes Ames in the Botanical Museum of Harvard University. Identification of the specimens discussed has been made by Mr. Charles Schweinfurth, Mr. Gordon de Wolf, Mr. Leslie A. Garay or the writer. The, genera. and under them the species, are arranged alphabetically. -

The climate change projections in the Seychelles show that rainfall, while increasing in overall terms, will become even more irregular. Much of the precipitation is falling in sharp bursts, creating heavy flooding in the wet season, while imposing extended period of drought during the dry season. As the country does not have a large water storage capacity, and the topography of the islands constrains such infrastructure, water supplies are heavily dependent on rainfall. Furthermore, the coastal zone is vulnerable to flooding as a consequence of rising sea surface levels, and increased storm surges from cyclonic activity in the Western Indian Ocean. The project will reduce these vulnerabilities by spearheading ecosystem-based adaptation as climate change risk management—restoring ecosystem functionality, and enhancing ecosystem resilience and sustaining watershed and coastal processes in order to secure critical water provisioning and flood attenuation ecosystem services from watersheds and coastal areas. -

Generic and Subtribal Relationships in Neotropical Cymbidieae (Orchidaceae) Based on Matk/Ycf1 Plastid Data
LANKESTERIANA 13(3): 375—392. 2014. I N V I T E D P A P E R* GENERIC AND SUBTRIBAL RELATIONSHIPS IN NEOTROPICAL CYMBIDIEAE (ORCHIDACEAE) BASED ON MATK/YCF1 PLASTID DATA W. 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. KEY WORDS: Orchidaceae, Cymbidieae, Maxillariinae, matK, ycf1, phylogenetics, Camaridium, Maxillaria cacaoensis, Vargasiella Cymbidieae include many of the showiest align nrITS sequences across the entire tribe was Neotropical epiphytic orchids and an unparalleled unrealistic due to high levels of sequence divergence, diversity in floral rewards and pollination systems. and instead to concentrate our efforts on assembling Many researchers have posed questions such as a larger plastid data set based on two regions (matK “How many times and when has male euglossine and ycf1) that are among the most variable plastid bee pollination evolved?”(Ramírez et al. 2011), or exon regions and can be aligned with minimal “How many times have oil-reward flowers evolved?” ambiguity across broad taxonomic spans. -
Aerangis Articulata by Brenda Oviatt and Bill Nerison an Exquisite Star from Madagascar
COLLECTor’s item by Brenda Oviatt and Bill Nerison Aerangis articulata An Exquisite Star from Madagascar IN ALL HONESTY, WHEN WE FOUND out that our photo of Aerangis articulata was chosen for the cover of Isobyl la Croix’s (2014) new book Aerangis, we were more than just a little excited! We decided that this is a perfect opportunity to tell people more about Aergs. articulata and give an introduction to her new book. We will try and help clarify the confusion surrounding the identification of this species, describe what to look for if you intend to buy one and discuss culture to help you grow and bloom it well. We love angraecoids, and the feature that most share and what sets them apart is their spurs or nectaries. In some orchid species, attracting the pollinator is all about fooling someone (quite often an insect). Some will mimic a female insect while others will mimic another type of flower to attract that flower’s pollinator. Oftentimes the u n s u s p e c t i n g insect gets nothing in return; not the promised mate or the nectar of the Brenda Oviatt and mimicked flower. Bill Nerison With angraecoids, the pollinator is often rewarded with a sweet treat: nectar that sits in the bottom of the spur. The pollinator of Aergs. articulata is a hawk moth (DuPuy, et al 1999) whose proboscis can reach that nectar. These moths are attracted by the sweet nighttime fragrance TT (scented much like a gardenia) and by the A VI O white flower (more visible than a colored A D flower in the dark). -

SCHLECHTER’S “NETWORK”: NORTH AND NORTHEAST BRAZIL, THE GUIANAS CARLOS OSSENBACH1,2,4 & RUDOLF JENNY3 1Jardín Botánico Lankester, Universidad de Costa Rica, P.O.Box 302-7050 Cartago, Costa Rica 2Orquideario 25 de mayo, Sabanilla de Montes de Oca, San José, Costa Rica 3Jany Renz Herbarium, Swiss Orchid Foundation, Switzerland 4Corresponding author: [email protected] ABSTRACT. The third chapter of the series about Rudolf Schlechter’s South-American orchids presents concise biographical information about those botanists and orchid collectors who were related to Schlechter and worked in north and northeastern Brazil, as well as in the three Guianas. As an introduction, a brief geographical outline is presented, dividing the northern territories in four zones: the Amazon basin, the Araguaia-Tocantins river basin, the Northeast region and the Guianas. It is followed by a short mention of the historical milestones in the history of orchids in these regions during the preceding centuries. KEY WORDS: Amazon River, biography, Brazil Nordeste, history of botany, Orchidaceae, Roraima, Tocantins River The Amazonas and Tocantins River basins, and the Finally we have the Brazilian states that form the Northeast region. As we have read in the previous coastline from Pará in the north to Espirito Santo in chapter, southern Brazil (taking the capital city of the south, namely eastern Maranhão, Piauí, Ceará, Brasilia as its northernmost point) is part of the La Plata Rio Grande do Norte, Paraíba, Pernambuco, Alagoas, River basin, which drains into the southern Atlantic Sergipe, and Bahia, which occupy the rest of northern Ocean (Ossenbach & Jenny 2019: 207, fig.
