  • Review of the Three Species Accepted in Chortolirion A.Berger (Xanthorrhoeaceae: Asphodeloideae)
    Review of the three species accepted in Chortolirion A.Berger (Xanthorrhoeaceae: Asphodeloideae) Georg Fritz Abstract In a recent detailed study, the genus Chortolirion A.Berger was revised (Zon- neveld & Fritz 2010). Three species were subsequently accepted, namely the spring-flowering C. angolense (Baker) A.Berger, the autumn-floweringC. tenu- ifolium (Engl.) A.Berger, which was rein- stated, and the summer-floweringC. lat- ifolium Zonn. & G.P.J. Fritz, which was described as new. A summary of this re- vision is provided and new information that has since become available, includ- ing several new localities, is offered. Introduction In the past, Chortolirion has largely been studied from herbarium sheets. Limited fieldwork was conducted to investigate the inconsistent morphological charac- teristics observed on these herbarium records or to examine the differences between various populations seen in the field. It is noteworthy that, in the past, herbarium records of the species were not collected with a view to dis- tinguishing between spring- and au- tumn-flowering populations (Craibet al. 200). Failure to recognize obvious dif- ferences between various populations over the entire distribution has resulted in Chortolirion being considered a vari- able monotypic genus, with C. angolense the only species (Smith 1991, 1995; Craib et al. 200). All species later described, namely C. bergerianum Dinter, C. steno- phyllum (Baker) A.Berger, C. subspicatum A.Berger, C. tenuifolium and C. saundersii Baker nom. nud., were treated as syno- nyms. More recently, it has become obvi- ous that an extensive field-based study was required to account for the differ- ences encountered in Chortolirion popu- lations in the field by recognizing their distinctive autecologies, morphological differences and specific flowering times in spring, summer and autumn (Craib Figure 1.

Ten of us met at Shawnee Backpacking Trail.

Mention to a colleague that you’re hiking Shawnee and they’ll ask ‘3 and 6?’ or ‘1 and 2?’ For other friends who are regular hikers/outdoors people/gardeners, I find myself explaining that these are the forest roads so rich in native orchids that you can virtually step out of the car and find them on the roadside.

E-mail [email protected] Received: 3 November 2011 Returned for revision: 9 December 2011 Accepted: 1 March 2012 Published electronically: 25 April 2012 † Background and aims Tribe Orchideae (Orchidaceae: Orchidoideae) comprises around 62 mostly terrestrial genera, which are well represented in the Northern Temperate Zone and less frequently in tropical areas of both the Old and New Worlds. Phylogenetic relationships within this tribe have been studied previously using only nuclear ribosomal DNA (nuclear ribosomal internal transcribed spacer, nrITS). However, different parts of the phylogenetic tree in these analyses were weakly supported, and integrating information from different plant genomes is clearly necessary in orchids, where reticulate evolution events are putatively common. The aims of this study were to: (1) obtain a well-supported and dated phylogenetic hypothesis for tribe Orchideae, (ii) assess appropriateness of recent nomenclatural changes in this tribe in the last decade, (3) detect possible examples of reticulate evolution and (4) analyse in a temporal context evolutionary trends for subtribe Orchidinae with special emphasis on pollination systems.
