ABSTRACT Th is work provides a summary of the typical fl oral structure of subtribe Hyptidinae (Lamiaceae), in which both style and stamens are declinate within or near the concave anterior corolla lobe. Cross-pollination is facilitated by protandry, acting in conjunction with the explosive release of the stamens and pollen. In contrast, we report that in the three species of the genus Eplingiella we found individuals with either resupinate or non-resupinate fl owers, which represents a novel fl oral dimorphism. In these species of Eplingiella, the style occupies a position towards the posterior corolla lip and opposes the declinate stamens. Th us, in non-resupinate fl owers the pollinating bee receives pollen on its ventral side and makes contact with the style on its dorsal side, whereas in resupinate fl owers, the bee receives pollen on its dorsal side, and contacts the style on its ventral side. Both fl oral morphs seem to be required to achieve cross-pollination. In the two populations studied, each of the two morphs is present and in similar proportions, providing a novel means of promoting cross-pollination and reducing selfi ng. Th e situation in Eplingiella is compared to some other examples of fl oral polymorphism, but appears to be a unique pollination strategy, here termed Resupinate Dimorphy. Keywords: Brazil, Centris, Eplingiella, Hyptidinae, Lamiaceae, resupinate dimorphy, style position these genera, both the stamens and style are ascending and Introduction positioned under the upper (posterior) corolla lip, and the chance of self-pollination (at least autonomous autogamy, Th e large family Lamiaceae (or Labiatae), to which if not geitonogamy) is reduced by protandry, with the style Eplingiella belongs, contains over 7000 species with an elongating and the stigma receptive only after the pollen almost worldwide distribution.

O gênero tem sido mantido sem divisão, ou subdividido em duas ou cinco seções taxonômicas, baseadas quase exclusivamente a partir de um conjunto limitado de características florais. Neste trabalho, uma delimitação química interespecífica é descrita a fim de complementar as análises das características botânicas. Análise multivariada dos óleos essenciais de dez espécies na fase vegetativa suporta a divisão taxonômica do gênero em duas seções. Grupo I incluiu quatro espécies da seção Laxiflorae em adição à H. irregularis, os quais foram caracterizados pelos mais altos percentuais de espatulenol e óxido de cariofileno. Grupo II conteve cinco espécies da seção Densiflorae com a-cadinol, a-muuroleno e a-muurolol como constituintes principais. Cadinanos e germacranos/aromadendranos parecem ser as classes marcadoras quimiotaxonômicas nas seções Densiflorae e Laxiflorae, respectivamente. Além disso, análise de redundância canônica não indicou correlação significante entre fatores edáficos com quimiovariação nos óleos essenciais, sugerindo que em Hypenia os óleos são constituídos por substâncias constitutivas e não induzidas pelo ambiente.
