Hermes Vega William Cetzal-Ix Edgar Mó José A. Madrid-Martínez 2020 Revisión texto y taxonomía: H. Vega, E. Mó y W. Cetzal. Texto original, fotografías y comentarios: Hermes Vega. Revisión: William Cetzal ix (México), Edgar Mó (Guatemala). Diseño, ilustración y diagramación: Hermes Vega, José A. Madrid-Martinéz, Alberto Mejía Paniagua, William Cetzal-Ix. Revisores UICN: M.Sc. David Mejía (Comisión de Gestión de Ecosistemas para América Latina y el Caribe de la UICN) y M.Sc.

Luis Bejarano (Universidad Nacional De Ciencias Forestales UNACIFOR - miembro de UICN). Sobre la guía La Guía ilustrada de Orquídeas del Parque Nacional Montaña de Celaque busca ser una obra de referencia para la identificación de este grupo de plantas dentro del parque y para la porción occidental de Honduras. Lo anterior, se basa en el número de especies ilustradas en la guía e identificadas por expertos de orquídeas. Se incluye una imágen de la estructura floral para faciliar la identificación de las especies, así como información sobre el tipo de vegetación de su hábitat, los rangos de elevación y distribución; esta información es de mucha utilidad para las autoridades de parques nacionales y personas interesadas en conservar estas plantas. En la actualidad, las orquídeas han generado interés en comunidades aledañas al parque por cultivar orquídeas silvestres, sin embargo, se debe contar con información correcta, incluyendo leyes y normativas que deben cumplirse para evitar generar daños a las poblaciones naturales de orquídeas.

Ackerman Tag der mündlichen Prüfung: 06.02.2004 Pleurothallis obliquipetala Acuña & Schweinf. Für Jakob und Julius, die nichts unversucht ließen, um das Zustandekommen dieser Arbeit zu verhindern. Zusammenfassung Die antillanische Flora ist eine der artenreichsten der Erde. Trotz jahrhundertelanger floristischer Forschung zeigen jüngere Studien, daß der Archipel noch immer weiße Flecken beherbergt. Das trifft besonders auf die Familie der Orchideen zu, deren letzte Bearbeitung für Cuba z.B. mehr als ein halbes Jahrhundert zurückliegt. Die vorliegende Arbeit basiert auf der lang ausstehenden Revision der Orchideengattung Pleurothallis R. Br. für die Flora de Cuba. Mittels weiterer morphologischer, palynologischer, molekulargenetischer, phytogeographischer und ökologischer Untersuchungen auch eines Florenteils der anderen Großen Antillen wird die Genese der antillanischen Pleurothallis-Flora rekonstruiert. Der Archipel umfaßt mehr als 70 Arten dieser Gattung, wobei die Zahlen auf den einzelnen Inseln sehr verschieden sind: Cuba besitzt 39, Jamaica 23, Hispaniola 40 und Puerto Rico 11 Spezies. Das Zentrum der Diversität liegt im montanen Dreieck Ost-Cuba – Jamaica – Hispaniola, einer Region, die 95 % der antillanischen Arten beherbergt, wovon 75% endemisch auf einer der Inseln sind.

Wita Stwosza 59, 80-308 Gdańsk, Poland. [email protected] Abstract. The floristic, geographical and ecological analysis of the orchid flora of the department of Valle del Cauca are presented. The study area is located in the southwestern Colombia and it covers about 22 140 km2 of land across 4 physiographic units. All analysis are based on the fieldwork and on the revision of the herbarium material. A list of 572 orchid species occurring in the department of Valle del Cauca is presented. Two species, Arundina graminifolia and Vanilla planifolia, are non-native elements of the studied orchid flora. The greatest species diversity is observed in the montane regions of the study area, especially in wet montane forest. The department of Valle del Cauca is characterized by the high level of endemism and domination of the transitional elements within the studied flora. The main problems encountered during the research are discussed in the context of tropical floristic studies. Key words: biodiversity, ecology, distribution, Orchidaceae. Resumen. Se presentan los resultados de los estudios geográfico, ecológico y florístico de la orquideoflora del departamento colombiano del Valle del Cauca. El área de estudio está ubicada al suroccidente de Colombia y cubre aproximadamente 22 140 km2 de tierra a través de 4 unidades fisiográficas.

    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 document has been submitted by the Scientific Authority for Flora of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland.* 2. The context of this document pertains to PC24 Com. 8 (Rev. by Sec.). The UK Scientific Authority and the United Nations Environment Programme – World Conservation Monitoring Centre (UNEP-WCMC) were to prepare a checklist for Orchidaceae, presenting Appendix I and Appendix II species separately. a) This was to be undertaken by generating an output for Orchidaceae from the World Checklist of Selected Plant Families. The output includes accepted names, synonyms and country-level distribution information. b) The dataset for Orchidaceae was provided by The World Checklist of Selected Plant Families. The World Checklist of Selected Plant Families has become an international collaborative programme with more than 150 contributors from 22 countries. The main goal of the World Checklist of Selected Plant Families is to provide high quality peer reviewed baseline data on all accepted taxa included in each family. c) To make the review of proposed changes manageable, a comparison was undertaken between the World Checklist of Selected Plant Families output and the current CITES nomenclature standard references for Orchidaceae. 3. The Appendix I Orchid Checklist was adopted at the 18th CITES Conference of the Parties (Switzerland, 2019). This checklist and the proposed checklist were compiled using the same methodology.

Most orchids that are hummingbird- pollinated are from high- elevation ecosystems in the tropical New World where insects are rare or unable to operate because of the cold. They are particularly common in the Andean regions where hummingbirds reach their greatest diversity. Hummingbirds are found only in the Americas with at least 330 species from Alaska to the tip of South America. 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. Some species of Masdevallia, Epidendrum, Encyclia, Cattleya, Sobralia, and Laelia have also adapted to hummingbirds. In addition, the highly-specialized little birds are attracted to certain species of Ada, Scaphyglottis (syn.
