The fifth chapter of the series about Rudolf Schlechter’s South-American orchids introduces us to those botanists and orchid collectors who travelled and worked in Ecuador and Peru and supplied Schlechter with many of the new orchid species he described. As in previous chapters, the biographies and accomplishments of these travellers are preceded by brief geographical and historical outlines for each of these countries. It is worth mentioning that the lives and orchids of such prominent figures in the orchidology of South America as F.C. Lehmann, W. Hennis, E. Bungeroth and E. Ule, who collected in Ecuador and Peru, have already been mentioned in previous chapters and are therefore omitted here. KEYWORDS/PALABRAS CLAVE: biography, biografía, history of botany, historia de la botánica, Orchidaceae ECUADOR. Ecuador is divided geographically into three Over 1000 km west of the coast of Ecuador, we find continental regions: the lowlands along the Pacific coast the archipelago of the Galapagos, of volcanic origin. The known as ‘Costa’, the mountain ranges of the Andes, largest island is Isabela, which is 120 km long. Santo known as the ‘Sierra’, and the eastern lowlands or ‘Ori- Tomás, located on Isabela Island, is the highest peak of ente’, which form part of the Amazon River basin.

Received: 17 December 2019; Accepted: 21 January 2020; Published: 24 January 2020 Abstract: This is an extensive review on epiphytic plants that have been used traditionally as medicines. It provides information on 185 epiphytes and their traditional medicinal uses, regions where Indigenous people use the plants, parts of the plants used as medicines and their preparation, and their reported phytochemical properties and pharmacological properties aligned with their traditional uses. These epiphytic medicinal plants are able to produce a range of secondary metabolites, including alkaloids, and a total of 842 phytochemicals have been identified to date. As many as 71 epiphytic medicinal plants were studied for their biological activities, showing promising pharmacological activities, including as anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, and anticancer agents. There are several species that were not investigated for their activities and are worthy of exploration.

  • 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.

This document has been submitted by the Scientific Authority for Flora of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland.* 2. The context of this document pertains to PC24 Com. 8 (Rev. by Sec.). The UK Scientific Authority and the United Nations Environment Programme – World Conservation Monitoring Centre (UNEP-WCMC) were to prepare a checklist for Orchidaceae, presenting Appendix I and Appendix II species separately. a) This was to be undertaken by generating an output for Orchidaceae from the World Checklist of Selected Plant Families. The output includes accepted names, synonyms and country-level distribution information. b) The dataset for Orchidaceae was provided by The World Checklist of Selected Plant Families. The World Checklist of Selected Plant Families has become an international collaborative programme with more than 150 contributors from 22 countries. The main goal of the World Checklist of Selected Plant Families is to provide high quality peer reviewed baseline data on all accepted taxa included in each family. c) To make the review of proposed changes manageable, a comparison was undertaken between the World Checklist of Selected Plant Families output and the current CITES nomenclature standard references for Orchidaceae. 3. The Appendix I Orchid Checklist was adopted at the 18th CITES Conference of the Parties (Switzerland, 2019). This checklist and the proposed checklist were compiled using the same methodology.

  • Two New Species of Scaphyglottis (Orchidaceae, Epidendroideae) from Colombia
    Polish Botanical Journal 59(1): 1–5, 2014 DOI: 10.2478/pbj-2014-0011 TWO NEW SPECIES OF SCAPHYGLOTTIS (ORCHIDACEAE, EPIDENDROIDEAE) FROM COLOMBIA Dariusz L. Szlachetko & Marta Kolanowska1 Abstract. Two new species of Scaphyglottis Poepp. & Endl. from Colombia are described, illustrated and placed within a key for determination of Colombian Scaphyglottis species. The taxonomic affinities of each species are briefly discussed and information about their distribution and ecology is given.
