  • 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.

In Londrina, flowering occurred twice a year, between the months of April and May and October and November with 2-4 flowers per pseudobulb and durability ranging from 15 to 20 days. The flowers of the new hybrid were purple with a labellum with a yellow center and purple stripes. Keywords: breeding, floriculture, Orchidaceae, selection. RESUMO Novo híbrido de orquídea Cattleya O híbrido, obtido do retrocruzamento entre (Cattleya labiata x Cattleya forbesii) x Cattleya labiata é uma planta vigorosa, bi ou unifoliada, apresenta pseudobulbos delgados e cilíndricos e folhas coriáceas com tonalidade verde escuro, com formato oblanceolado, de pontas obtusas, apresentando o primeiro florescimento após quatros anos da semeadura. O florescimento em Londrina ocorreu duas vezes no ano, entre os meses de abril e maio e outubro e novembro com 2-4 flores por pseudobulbo e durabilidade entre 15 a 20 dias. As flores do novo híbrido possuem coloração lilás e labelo com um centro amarelo e listras roxas. Palavras-chave: floricultura, melhoramento, Orchidaceae, seleção. 1. INTRODUCTION allows the introduction of relevant genes such as shape, durability, color, and others into hybrids of orchids The Orchidaceae family has about 26,500 species, (WITHNER, 1988) distributed across all continents (KEW, 2011).

  • 4 CITES Listed Species
    Dutch Caribbean Species of High Conservation Value 4 CITES listed species 4.1 Notes on CITES Species CITES (the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora) is an international agreement between governments. Its aim is to ensure that international trade in specimens of wild animals and plants does not threaten their survival. In the CITES legislation organisms are classified in 3 categories depending on how endangered they are thought to be, or the degree of protection they are thought to need (CITES-Website 2012); ! Appendix I includes species threatened with extinction. Trade in specimens of these species is permitted only in exceptional circumstances. Import and export or re-export permits are required, issued by the Management Authority of the State of Import, Export or Re-Export. ! Appendix II includes species where trade is allowed but restricted. An export or re-export certificate is required, but no import permit is needed unless required by national law. ! Appendix III are species in which trade is allowed but monitored. An export permit must be issued by the Management Authority of the State that included the species in Appendix III. 4.2 Summary data CITES I CITES II CITES I CITES II CITES Dutch Caribbean 15 189 Saba 16 153 Marine 12 1120 Marine 5 115 Terrestrial 3 68 Terrestrial 1 36 Aruba 7 124 St Eustatius 160 159 Marine 4 102 Marine 5 115 Terrestrial 3 21 Terrestrial 1 43 Bonaire 17 153 St Maarten 16 152 Marine 5 115 Marine 5 115 Terrestrial 2 31 Terrestrial 1 33 Curaçao 17 158 Marine 6 115 Terrestrial 1 36 CITES listed species 31 November 2012 Dutch Caribbean Species of High Conservation Value 4.3 CITES I 4.3.1 Marine CITES Appendix I species Common Group Name English Name Scientific name Notes Aruba Bonaire Curaçao Saba Eustatius St.

  • Species Data Sheet Cattleya Milleri (Blumensch
    Species Data Sheet Cattleya milleri (Blumensch. ex Pabst) Van den Berg, Neodiversity 3: 9 (2008) [KAT-lee-a mil-LAR-ee] Recently ‘found’, 1960, in Brazil as a miniature sized, warm to cool growing "rupicolous" lithophyte on iron ore outcroppings in Minas Gerais or on the base of Vellozia shrubs at elevations of 2500 to 4300 feet (800 to 1300 m). The clusterd red pseudobulbs are up to 2.5” (6 cm) high, widest at the base, and bear a stiff, somewhat narrow 4.0” (10 cm) ovate-oblong, keeled, rigid leaf with a sharp tip. The leaf is borne at an angle to the pseudobulb, not in line with it, and the foliage of most plants has a deep maroon flush, particularly on the backs of the leaves. The blood- or range-red starry flowers approach 2.0” (5.0 cm) in diameter, blooming in late spring and early summer (May through July) on a erect, 12 to 18" [30 to 50 cm] long, several to many flowered (approximately 6 to 12 flowers at the same time), Cattleya milleri racemose inflorescence with successive opening flowers, held well ‘Phyllis’ AM/AOS above the leaves. The lip is usually yellow with cinnabar-colored May 2010, NS 5.0 x 5.0 cm veining and varying width picotee. There are two color types, one group has narrower sepals and petals, slightly larger flowers and an orange-red color. The other group has slightly smaller flowers with wider sepals and petals and their color is a more blood-red. Synonyms: Laelia milleri Varieties / forms: None.

Hummingbirds are found only in the Americas with at least 330 species from Alaska to the tip of South America. The greatest numbers are found in the tropics with fewer than 20 species normally found in the United States and Canada. Hummingbirds seem particularly attracted to many species of the genera Elleanthus, Cochlioda, and Comparettia.

Received 25 July, 2016; Accepted 21 September, 2016 Orchids are among the most beautiful flowers and endangered due to habitat destruction and over- collection. Cattleya walkeriana is one of the most beautiful flowers joining the small sized plant with medium large and heavily scented flowers. It is widely known and appreciated by its beautiful clones and it has much to offer to breeders because their plants have besides other attributes as small habit and big flowers, many colour variations, form and precocity, becoming flower only four years in ex vitro culture. However, in some of the original places it is becoming a red listed species. Notwithstanding, very little is known about the genetics of these flowers and the variability in the species that is widespread in the Brazilian territory. The aim of this work was to estimate the variability among cultivated materials using the F statistics and to verify if there was inbreeding in plant crosses with similar characteristics, employing as a tool the RAPD simple methodology. The results obtained showed that RAPD was good enough to estimate the variability in C.
