  • The Genus Brassavola, (L.) R.Br
    The Genus Brassavola, (L.) R.Br. in W.T.Aiton, Hortus Kew. 5: 216 (1813) Type: Brassavola [B.] cucullata [bra-SAH-vo-la kyoo-kyoo-LAH-ta] There are 28 species (OrchidWiz [update Dec 2017]) that are epiphytes and sometimes lithophytes at elevations of from sea level to 3300 ft (1000 m) from Mexico, southern Caribbean islands to northern Argentina in moist or wet montane forests, mangroves, rocky crevices and cliff faces. They are most fragrant at night and many with a citrus smell. The genus is characterized by very small pencil-like pseudobulbs, often forming large clumps; a single, fleshy, apical, sub-terete leaf and the inflorescence produced form the apex of the pseudobulb. The inflorescence carries from a single to a few large flowers. The floral characteristics are elongate narrow similar sepals and petals, the base of the lip usually tightly rolled around at least a portion of the column which carries 12, sometimes eight unequal pollina with prominent opaque caudicles. The flowers usually occur, as a rule, in spring, summer and fall. The flowers are generally yellow to greenish white with a mostly white lip. It is not unusual for dark spots, usually purple, to be in the region where the sepals, petals, and lip join the stem (claw). This spotting is a dominant generic trait in Brassavola nodose. They are easily cultivated under intermediate conditions. Although this is a relatively small genus (28 species), the species show an unusually close relationship with one another in their floral patterns, coloration, and column structure making identification difficult, key to know where the plants were collected.

It is known only from montane rain forest in southern Bahia. Flower morphology, especially the fringed midlobe of the labellum, crested callus and teeth of the clinandrium, distinguish it from any other species of the genus.

Esta é somente conhecida de floresta montana do sul da Bahia. A morfologia da flor, especialmente o lobo medial do labelo fimbriado, o calo sinuoso e os dentes do clinândrio, a diferenciam de todas as demais espécies do gênero. Palavras-chave: Epífitas, flora da Bahia, Neotrópico Introduction Encyclia is the second largest genus in the Neotropical subtribe Laeliinae, being surpassed only by Epidendrum (Dressler 1993, Pridgeon et al. 2003, Chase et al. 2004). Many Encyclia species have ornamental value due to their large and showy flowers. There are about 120 species occuring from Florida, Mexico and West Indies to Brazil and northern Argentina (Withner 1998, 2000, van den Berg & Carnevali F.-C.

COMPARISON OF FLORAL FRAGRANCE COMPONENTS OF SPECIES OF ENCYCLIA AND PROSTHECHEA (ORCHIDACEAE) FROM SOCONUSCO, SOUTHEAST MEXICO ALEJANDRO DEL MAZO CANCINO & *ANNE DAMON *El Colegio de la Frontera Sur (ECOSUR), apdo. postal 36, Carretera Aeropuerto Antiguo, Tapachula, Chiapas, México. [email protected] ABSTRACT. We analyzed the volatile fragrance components of fl owers of four species of Prosthechea and three species of Encyclia, from the lower and middle altitudes of Soconusco region in the southeast of Mexico. The fl owers of P. cochleata, reported to be an autogamic species, produced no volatiles. P. baculus, P. chacaoensis and P. radiata, all of which have highly fragrant fl owers, shared various volatile components, most notably, p-methyl anisole, e-ocimene, oxophorone, α-farnesene and benzyl benzoate. E. adenocarpa has lightly fragrant fl owers, with hexadecene and e-nerolidol the major components, whereas the physically similar E. parvifl ora produced mainly 3,4,5-trimethoxybenzoic acid, methyl ester and only one other compound. E. cordigera is a highly fragrant species and produced relatively large amounts of cis-geraniol. Various volatile fragrance components were shared by these two, recently separated genera, especially benzaldehyde, cis-ocimene and e-ocimene. Similarities were greater between the Prosthecheas (excluding P. cochleata) than the Encyclias. RESUMEN. Se analizaron los compuestos volátiles de fl ores de cuatro especies de Prosthechea y tres especies de Encyclia, de altitudes bajas y medianas de la región del Soconusco en el sureste de México. Las fl ores de Prosthechea cochleata, una especie considerada autogámica, no produjeron ningún compuesto volátil.

In this study, two new natural hybrids, Pleione × baoshanensis and Pleione × maoershanensis, were described and illustrated. The parentage for these two hybrids was confirmed using molecular data from ITS of the nuclear ribosomal, trnT-trnL spacer and trnL-trnF region (trnL intron and trnL-trnF spacer) of the plastid DNA. Pleione × baoshanensis is intermediate between P. albiflora and P. yunnanensis, and characterized by its erose lamellae on the lip. Meanwhile, Pleione × maoershanensis is intermediate between P. hookeriana (P. chunii) and P. pleionoides, and characterized by its deep lacerate lamellae on the lip. For the individuals tested, molecular data suggest that P. albiflora is the maternal parent of Pleione × baoshanensis, and P. hookeriana (P.

The existence of a wild population of Laelia dawsonii f. dawsonii is recorded for the first time in the Mexican State of Jalisco. Laelia dawsonii has a wide geographical distribution throughout the Sierra Madre del Sur (Oaxaca, Guerrero, and Jalisco); however, the populations are very isolated, and each one has very few individuals. Until now, no wild populations of this species had been registered outside of the State of Oaxaca. The population found in Jalisco is composed of about 100 plants. Due to its horticultural importance, L. dawsonii has been frequently extracted from the field, and its Oaxacan populations have been decimated since the end of the 19th century. Currently, this species is considered endangered in Mexico. RESUMEN. Se registra por primera vez la existencia de una población silvestre de Laelia dawsonii f. dawsonii en el estado de Jalisco. Laelia dawsonii tiene una amplia distribución geográfica a lo largo de la Sierra Madre del Sur (Oaxaca, Guerrero, y Jalisco); sin embargo, sus poblaciones están muy aisladas y cada una cuenta con muy pocos individuos.

  • Nomenclatural Notes on Laeliinae-V. New Combinations for Invalid Names in Prosthechea (Orchidaceae)

New combinations for invalid names in Prosthechea (Orchidaceae) CÁSSIO VAN DEN BERG Universidade Estadual de Feira de Santana, Departamento de Ciências Biológicas, Av. Transnordestina s.n., 44036-900, Feira de San- tana, Bahia, Brazil; e-mail: [email protected] Prosthechea Knowles & Westcott (1838: 111) is the third largest genus of Laeliinae Bentham (1881: 287) with 117 species (Chase et al. 2015). The group of species corresponding to Prosthechea is widespread in the Neotropics, especially in Mexico, Central America and Brazil, and has been treated since the 60’s as distinct from Epidendrum Linnaeus (1763: 1347) but with contradictory generic placement. For example, Dressler & Pollard (1971, 1976) included most species in Encyclia subgenus Osmophytum (Lindley 1841: 81) Dressler & Pollard (1971: 433), but dealt only with Mexican species. Pabst & Dungs (1975, 1977) followed Dressler and treated the Brazilian species also in Encyclia Hooker (1828: t. 2831). Brieger (1960) considered them part of Hormidium (Lindley 1841: 81) Heynhold (1841: 880) and later Pabst et al. (1981) transferred most Brazilian species to Anacheilium Hoffmannsegg (1842: 229). Molecular phylogenetic analyses of plastid and nuclear data confirmed that the whole group was monophyletic (van den Berg et al. 2000, 2009, Higgins et al., 2003). After an extensive discussion on the generic names by Higgins (1997), he established that the oldest name for the whole clade was Prosthechea and proposed most of the new combinations for species previously included in Epidendrum, Encyclia, Anacheilium and Hormidium.
