    Orchids: 2017 Global Ex situ Collections Assessment Botanic gardens collectively maintain one-third of Earth's plant diversity. Through their conservation, education, horticulture, and research activities, botanic gardens inspire millions of people each year about the importance of plants. Ophrys apifera (Bernard DuPon) Angraecum conchoglossum With one in five species facing extinction due to threats such (Scott Zona) as habitat loss, climate change, and invasive species, botanic garden ex situ collections serve a central purpose in preventing the loss of species and essential genetic diversity. To support the Global Strategy for Plant Conservation, botanic gardens create integrated conservation programs that utilize diverse partners and innovative techniques. As genetically diverse collections are developed, our collective global safety net against plant extinction is strengthened.

Using the “Seidenfaden collection” in Copenhagen as an example, we address the common view that botanical garden collections of orchids are important for conservation. Seidenfaden collected live orchids all over Thailand from 1957 to 1983 and created a traditional collection for taxonomic research, characterized by high taxonomic diversity and low intraspecific variation. Following an extended period of partial neglect, we managed to set up a five-year project aimed at expanding the collection with a continued focus on taxonomic diversity, but widening the geographic scope to tropical Asia.

  • 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.

  • Systematic Treatment of the Sematophyllaceae (Musci) in Thailand
    Systematic treatment of the Sematophyllaceae (Musci) in Thailand Thaweesakdi Boonkerd1,*, Rossarin Pollawatn1 and Jan-Peter Frahm2 1Chulalongkorn University, Bangkok, Thailand, *e-mail: [email protected], 2Nees-Institute for Biodiversity of Plants, University of Bonn, Germany A taxonomic study of the Sematophyllaceae in Thailand was carried out based on more than 2000 specimens. These specimens were on loan from the main herbaria in Thailand, Europe and America together with additional collections by the authors. Gross morphological studies were conducted of all organs of each specimen under the microscope. An artificial key, description, distribution, ecology, illustrations and photos of each species are provided. Enumeration of this moss family revealed 24 genera, 97 species, 5 varieties and 1 form. Three genera, Pseudotrismegistia, Heterophyllium, and Pylaisiadelpha, are new additions to the Flora of Thailand. Eleven species and 2 varieties are endemic to Thailand, i.e. Acroporium convolutifolium Dixon, A. hamulatum (M. Fleisch.) M. Fleisch. var. procumbens (M. Fleisch.)

H. A. Pedersen & Suksathan was carried out in W Thailand, 2010‒2012. The orchid is a nectariferous, non-autogamous and self-compatible terrestrial. During 120 man-hours of flower watching, three species of Ceratina were found to be the main pollinators, viz. C. (Ceratinidia) lieftincki van der Vecht, C. (C.) collusor Cockerell, C. (Pithitis) smaragdula (Fabricius), males and/or females. Braunsapis hewitti (Cameron) was a minor pollinator. Ceratina acquired pollinia on their forehead and in some cases they subsequently deposited massulae on the stigma of other S. monophylla flowers. Three further species, viz. Ceratina (Ceratinidia) accusator Cockerell, C. (C.) chiangmaiensis W., M. & L. and C. (C.) bryanti Cockerell, did not acquire pollinia; but in these cases all pollen in the visited flowers had already been removed by previous pollinators.

  • Thai Endemic Plants: Species Diversity, Habitats, and Risk of Extinction Status
    Journal of Tropical Plants Research 5 : 1-19. 2012 Thai Endemic Plants: Species Diversity, Habitats, and Risk of Extinction Status Sutida Maneeanakekul1 Duangchai Sookchaloem1, * ABSTRACT Endemic plant species are the plant species occurring naturally within one country. They are easily threatened due to specific habitat requirements. Several endemic species have become extinct before being discovered. For this reason, information on endemic species diversity, conservation status, and habitat are necessary for conservation planning in the future. According to previous studies on floras of Thailand, there were 826 species from 318 genera in 74 families of plants reported as endemic to Thailand. They consisted of 577 species, 206 genera, 51 families of Dicotyledons, 219 species, 90 genera, 11 families of monocotyledons, 22 species, 20 genera, 11 families of ferns, and 6 species, 1 genus, 1 family of gymnosperms. Six status levels of extinction risk following IUCN categories and criteria (version before 1994, 1994 and 2001) were reported among Thai endemic species. There were 406 species classified as Rare status, 243 species in Vulnerable status (VU), 99 species as Endangered status (EN), 73 species as Not Evaluated status (NE), 3 species as Least Concern status (LC), and 2 species as Near Threatened status (NT). In highly threatened statuses (EN and VU status), Orchidaceae was the richest family (80 species) followed by Gesneriaceae (45 species), Araceae (15 species), Begoniaceae (15 species) and Zingiberaceae (15 species). Mostly of these families were found in montane forests (93 species) and limestone mountains (90 species). All highly threatened plants were priority groups requiring substantial and urgent actions to improve their statuses and protect their habitats.

    NOTES ON SOME MALESIAN ORCHIDACEAE PAUL ORMEROD,1, 2 MARK A. NAÏVE,3 AND JIM COOTES4 Abstract. Herbarium and literature studies of various orchids from the Malesian floristic zone reveal some new species, synonymy, and the need for a few nomenclatural proposals. Thus, the synonymy of Cestichis halconensis is elaborated; Cymboglossum is found to be the older name for Ascidieria, requiring 8 transfers; Dendrobium appendiculoides is reduced to D. zamboangense; Dendrobium philippinense is reduced to D. gerlandianum; Epidendrum subulatum is reduced to Thrixspermum filiforme; Eria section Polyura is transferred to Pinalia; Eria villosissima is transferred to Mycaranthes; and Myrmechis philippinensis is renamed Odontochilus marivelensis. Six new species are proposed, namely, Dendrobium rubroflavum, Pinalia edanoana, P. kitangladensis, P. pentalopha, P. sanguinea, and P. tonglonensis.

Is it really worthwhile revising the same fl ora repeatedly? A case study in Thai Orchidaceae HENRIK Æ. PEDERSEN1 ABSTRACT. For many purposes, scientifi c Floras (dealing with one, several or all plant families on a national or regional scale) are the most intensively used surveys and identifi cation tools for species of vascular plants. Flora of Thailand will be the fi rst real stan- dard Flora to cover all families of fl owering plants in Thailand. Nevertheless, the Thai representatives of a number of plant groups have undergone one or more revisions previously. Is it worthwhile revising such groups again for Flora of Thailand – and would it even make sense to start thinking of a second edition? To throw some light on this, I compared three successive revisions of the or- chid subfamily Orchidoideae in Thailand (published in 1958–1964, 1977–1978 and 2011, respectively). The series of revisions ex- hibited a progressive increase in the net number of accepted taxa.
