  • ORCHIDACEAE NEOTROPICALES, II During The
    ORCHIDACEAE NEOTROPICALES, II De orchidaceis principaliter colombianis notutae. BY RICHARD EVANS SCHULTES During the past fifteen or twenty years, plant exp.oration in Co- lombia has been greatly intensified. The number of collections, espe- cially from the high Andean regions of the country, is now very much more comprehensive; and monographic. and floristic proj ects should find in this trend strong impetus and keen encouragement. The very task of routine identification of plant collections often uncovers sig- nificant intorrnation. Frequently, species or genera turn up which are new either to Colombia or to a given phytogeographic province of the country. Some of the exploration along frontier regions has resulted in the discovery in Colombia of species known only from neighbouring co- untries. This is especially so in the case of the orchids which have been collected in eastern or Amazonian Colombia, many of which have been reported hitherto only from Brazil or Peru. There is every reason to believe that the total number of orchids known from Co- lombia will be markedly increased as recent collections receive cri- tical attention. In 1920, Schlechter (Schlechter, R. in Repert. Sp Nov. Beih. 7 (1920) listed as known from Colombia 1293 species of orchids. The f'o'ilowing notes, chiefly on Colombian species, are based upon material preserved in the Orchid Herbarium of Oakes Ames in the Botanical Museum of Harvard University. Identification of the specimens discussed has been made by Mr. Charles Schweinfurth, Mr. Gordon de Wolf, Mr. Leslie A. Garay or the writer. The, genera. and under them the species, are arranged alphabetically.

  • Guide to the Flora of the Carolinas, Virginia, and Georgia, Working Draft of 17 March 2004 -- LILIACEAE
    Guide to the Flora of the Carolinas, Virginia, and Georgia, Working Draft of 17 March 2004 -- LILIACEAE LILIACEAE de Jussieu 1789 (Lily Family) (also see AGAVACEAE, ALLIACEAE, ALSTROEMERIACEAE, AMARYLLIDACEAE, ASPARAGACEAE, COLCHICACEAE, HEMEROCALLIDACEAE, HOSTACEAE, HYACINTHACEAE, HYPOXIDACEAE, MELANTHIACEAE, NARTHECIACEAE, RUSCACEAE, SMILACACEAE, THEMIDACEAE, TOFIELDIACEAE) As here interpreted narrowly, the Liliaceae constitutes about 11 genera and 550 species, of the Northern Hemisphere. There has been much recent investigation and re-interpretation of evidence regarding the upper-level taxonomy of the Liliales, with strong suggestions that the broad Liliaceae recognized by Cronquist (1981) is artificial and polyphyletic. Cronquist (1993) himself concurs, at least to a degree: "we still await a comprehensive reorganization of the lilies into several families more comparable to other recognized families of angiosperms." Dahlgren & Clifford (1982) and Dahlgren, Clifford, & Yeo (1985) synthesized an early phase in the modern revolution of monocot taxonomy. Since then, additional research, especially molecular (Duvall et al. 1993, Chase et al. 1993, Bogler & Simpson 1995, and many others), has strongly validated the general lines (and many details) of Dahlgren's arrangement. The most recent synthesis (Kubitzki 1998a) is followed as the basis for familial and generic taxonomy of the lilies and their relatives (see summary below). References: Angiosperm Phylogeny Group (1998, 2003); Tamura in Kubitzki (1998a). Our “liliaceous” genera (members of orders placed in the Lilianae) are therefore divided as shown below, largely following Kubitzki (1998a) and some more recent molecular analyses. ALISMATALES TOFIELDIACEAE: Pleea, Tofieldia. LILIALES ALSTROEMERIACEAE: Alstroemeria COLCHICACEAE: Colchicum, Uvularia. LILIACEAE: Clintonia, Erythronium, Lilium, Medeola, Prosartes, Streptopus, Tricyrtis, Tulipa. MELANTHIACEAE: Amianthium, Anticlea, Chamaelirium, Helonias, Melanthium, Schoenocaulon, Stenanthium, Veratrum, Toxicoscordion, Trillium, Xerophyllum, Zigadenus.

The third chapter of the series about Rudolf Schlechter’s South-American orchids presents concise biographical information about those botanists and orchid collectors who were related to Schlechter and worked in north and northeastern Brazil, as well as in the three Guianas. As an introduction, a brief geographical outline is presented, dividing the northern territories in four zones: the Amazon basin, the Araguaia-Tocantins river basin, the Northeast region and the Guianas. It is followed by a short mention of the historical milestones in the history of orchids in these regions during the preceding centuries. KEY WORDS: Amazon River, biography, Brazil Nordeste, history of botany, Orchidaceae, Roraima, Tocantins River The Amazonas and Tocantins River basins, and the Finally we have the Brazilian states that form the Northeast region.

Franco Pupulin* Abstract A revision of the Costa Rican species pertaining to the genus Kefersteinia RcHB.f. is presented. Phylo- genetic relationships of the genus are discussed. Ten species are accepted for Costa Rica and a key to the species is provided, together with references to the types and synonyms, a detailed description, etymology, general distribution and examined specimens in the study area, ecological notes, taxonomic discussion and a composite illustration for each taxon. A new species, Kefersteinia endresii PUPULIN, is described and illu- strated. Lectotypes are selected for Zygopetalum lacteum RcHB.f., Kefersteinia alba SCHLTR., K. micro- charis SCHLTR. and K. parvilabris SCHLTR. Key words: Orchidaceae, Zygopetalinae, Kefersteinia, Kefersteinia endresii, Costa Rica, systematics, taxonomy Introduction Although the Zygopetalinae appear to be a natural group of the Orchidaceae, its divisi- on into several formal subgroups has proven to be difficult. Within the subtribe, delimi- tation of genera is particularly critical in the Chondrorhyncha alliance. Despite the pre- sence in all the genera of the complex of a common variant in the seed type with res- pect to the Maxillaria type (DRESSLER 1981), vegetative and floral characters do not seem to correlate consistently enough to permit the definition of clear generic bounda- ries.

    THE PRIMITIVE EPIDENDROIDEAE (ORCHIDACEAE): PHYLOGENY, CHARACTER EVOLUTION AND THE SYSTEMATICS OF PSILOCHILUS (TRIPHOREAE) A Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for The Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of the Ohio State University By Erik Paul Rothacker, M.Sc. ***** The Ohio State University 2007 Doctoral Dissertation Committee: Approved by Dr. John V. Freudenstein, Adviser Dr. John Wenzel ________________________________ Dr. Andrea Wolfe Adviser Evolution, Ecology and Organismal Biology Graduate Program COPYRIGHT ERIK PAUL ROTHACKER 2007 ABSTRACT Considering the significance of the basal Epidendroideae in understanding patterns of morphological evolution within the subfamily, it is surprising that no fully resolved hypothesis of historical relationships has been presented for these orchids. This is the first study to improve both taxon and character sampling. The phylogenetic study of the basal Epidendroideae consisted of two components, molecular and morphological. A molecular phylogeny using three loci representing each of the plant genomes including gap characters is presented for the basal Epidendroideae. Here we find Neottieae sister to Palmorchis at the base of the Epidendroideae, followed by Triphoreae. Tropidieae and Sobralieae form a clade, however the relationship between these, Nervilieae and the advanced Epidendroids has not been resolved. A morphological matrix of 40 taxa and 30 characters was constructed and a phylogenetic analysis was performed. The results support many of the traditional views of tribal composition, but do not fully resolve relationships among many of the tribes. A robust hypothesis of relationships is presented based on the results of a total evidence analysis using three molecular loci, gap characters and morphology. Palmorchis is placed at the base of the tree, sister to Neottieae, followed successively by Triphoreae sister to Epipogium, then Sobralieae.

The phylogenetic relationships of the orchid subtribe Zygopetalinae were evaluated using parsimony analyses of combined DNA sequence data of nuclear ITS 1 and 2 (including the 5.8s region and portions of the flanking 18s and 26s regions) and of the plastid trnL intron plus the trnL-F intergenic spacer and the plastid matK.
