06-Paphinia Benzingii.Indd Paphinia benzingii C.H.Dodson & T.Neudecker Paphinia benzingii Dodson & T.Neudecker; Die Orchidee 41(6):1990.233 TYPE. Ecuador., Esmeraldas, km.12 road Lita to San Lorenzo, 750 m, Dodson 16805 et al., holotype RPSC, isotype HEID 01 DISTRIBUTION. So far only known from the northwest of Ecuador, department Esmeraldas, around 750 m in very wet forest together with Paphinia hirtzii and Paphinia litensis. GENERAL. This species was collected together with Paphinia hirtzii and Paphinia litensis near Lita in the extreme north- west of Ecuador. The annual rainfall in this area is more than 6,000 mm – extremely wet. Only one drawing of this species is known (published together with the first description) and up until the present time Paphinia benzingii remains almost absent in collections. The type specimen should be in the collection of the Missouri Botanical Garden (the collection from 02 the RPSC [Rio Palenque Science Centre] was given by DODSON to Missouri), although it was not possible to locate it there. The isotype in the herbarium of the Botanical Garden Heidelberg (HEID) is also non-existant. If the plant could show 01 First description of Paphinia benzingii from Die Orchidee, 1990 up in cultivation, it would be important to collect material for a neotype. 02 Line drawing of Paphinia benzingii from Die Orchidee, 1990 38 39 03 Inflorescence of the type specimen of Paphinia benzingii (courtesy of Tilman Neudecker) 04 Portrait of David H.Benzing 05 Flower of the type specimen of Paphinia benzingii (courtesy of Tilman Neudecker) 06 Lip of Paphinia benzingii (courtesy of Tilman Neudecker) 04 03 05 06 40 41 07 10 11 07 Plant of Paphinia benzingii (courtesy of Peter T.Jensen) 08 & 09 Flower of Paphinia benzingii (courtesy of Peter T.Jensen) 10 & 11 08 09 Lip of Paphinia benzingii (courtesy of Heiko Hentrich) 42 43 12 Flowering plant of Paphinia benzingii (courtesy of Heiko Hentrich) 01 First description of Paphinia cristata as Maxillaria cristata from Edwards’s Botanical Register, t.1811, 1836 02 Text of plate 30 of Paphinia randi or Paphinia cristata var. randi from Lindenia, 1885 12.

  • 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.

  • Pollinator Specificity and Seasonal Patterns in the Euglossine Bee-Orchid Mutualism at La Gamba Biological Station
    Acta ZooBot Austria 156, 2019, 171–181 Pollinator specificity and seasonal patterns in the euglossine bee-orchid mutualism at La Gamba Biological Station Santiago R. Ramirez The plant family Orchidaceae exhibits some of the most spectacular and intricate ad- aptations for insect pollination. Across the Neotropical region male euglossine bees provide pollination services to approx. 700 orchid species that have evolved scent pro- duction in exchange for sexual reproduction. Male orchid bees collect scents from flowers and other sources to concoct perfume mixtures that they use as pheromone analogs during courtship display. Although the pollination biology of some of these associations has been studied in detail for some orchid taxa, community-wide analyses of this mutualism are lacking. Here I present an analysis of the plant-pollinator affilia- tion patterns and phenology among scent-producing orchids and male euglossine bees based on 960 bee-orchid interactions obtained over the course of five years of sampling at La Gamba Biological Station (south-western Costa Rica). I identify a highly nested plant-pollinator network that is composed of 24 bee species and 17 orchid genera. Some orchid genera exhibit pronounced flowering seasonality, with most of the diver- sity of interactions taking place during the dry season (March-April) and few orchid taxa blooming throughout the year. The architecture of the plant-pollinator network also revealed a substantial degree of pollinator sharing among orchid genera, suggest- ing that distantly related lineages independently converged on the use of similar pol- linator bee assemblages.

  • 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.

The relevance of pollinaria study in orchid systematics and reproductive biology is summa­ rized. The Orchid Pollinaria Collection and the associate database of Lankester Botanical Garden, University of Costa Rica, are presented. The collection includes 496 pollinaria, belonging to 312 species in 94 genera, with particular emphasis on Neotropical taxa of the tribe Cymbidieae (Epidendroideae). The associated database includes digital images of the pollinaria and is progressively made available to the general public through EPIDENDRA, the online taxonomic and nomenclatural database of Lankester Botanical Garden. Examples are given of the use of the pollinaria collection by researchers of the Center in a broad range of systematic applications.

Wheat is approximately 99% autogamous under natural field conditions; with self-fertilization normally occurring before flowers open. Wheat pollen grains are relatively heavy and any that are released from the flower remain viable for between a few minutes and a few hours. Warm, dry, windy conditions may increase cross- pollination rates on a variety to variety basis (see also 6 below).
