Cover: Bulbophyllum pachyrrachis by Stan Folsom NOTES FROM THE EDITOR It is not often that the Journal can present a lengthy piece devoted to a single subject. This issue contains Roger Hammer's extensive work on the orchids of south Florida. I am sure you will find it both interesting and informative reading. As the main thrust of the 2001 orchid season is coming upon us in many parts of North America, field work will commence and new discoveries will be made. Please consider writing an article for the Journal about your work. I would like to devote the December issue to a series of "what I did during the field season" articles. Your writings need not be lengthy, but will be of interest to all. Deadline for submission would be October 15th. The coming year will be of exceptional interest to all North American orchidists as it will see the publication of several new books on the subject. The June issue will have an article by Ron Coleman on North American native orchid books and notes on several upcoming publications. Full information including schedule and accommodations for the conference in September is in this issue. Although we will not have as many 1 species to see in flower the primary thrust of the conference will be education through the speakers' programs and workshops. I know many of you feel that all Spiranthes really look alike - here will be an opportunity to really see them together and learn the differences. Once you take the time to look at them carefully they really are very different one from another. Please remember to send all registrations to PO Box 759, Acton, Maine 04001.

Hammer The purpose of this report is to offer a comprehensive account of the known status of the native and naturalized orchids found, or historically found, in Collier, Miami-Dade, and Monroe counties. The categories in which these orchids are placed do not reflect their status as endangered or threatened species in the state of Florida, but merely reflect the author’s opinion regarding how common these species are in their respective natural habitats within the range of this report. Some species were undoubtedly rare when first discovered in Florida and remain rare today. Collecting and habitat destruction have both played significant roles in the demise of many species. This report only addresses the status of the listed species within the three southernmost counties in Florida. It is the author’s sincere hope that this report will give regulatory 3 Hammer: A STATUS REPORT ON THE NATIVE AND NATURALIZED ORCHIDACEAE OF COLLIER, MIAMI-DADE, AND MONROE COUNTIES, FLORIDA agencies and concerned orchidophiles a better understanding of southern Florida’s orchid flora. The author owes a sincere expression of gratitude to Keith Bradley, Paul Martin Brown, George Gann, Chuck McCartney, and Dick Wunderlin for their contributions to this report. CATEGORY DEFINITIONS VERY RARE: Species with extremely small populations and possibly in imminent danger of extirpation or extinction. RARE: Species that are rarely encountered in the proper habitat, although populations appear to be stable. UNCOMMON: Species that are infrequently encountered, but sometimes locally abundant, in the proper habitat. COMMON: Species that are frequently encountered in the proper habitat. PRESUMED EXTIRPATED: Species that historically occurred in Collier, Miami-Dade, and/or Monroe county but are no longer extant. Some may still occur elsewhere in the state. NATURALIZED EXOTICS AND LOCAL ESCAPES: Non-native species that have either escaped cultivation or otherwise arrived in Florida abetted by man. Naturalized exotics are those species that have invaded native plant communities. ERRONEOUS REPORTS: Species reported either in error or as a hoax. 4 Hammer: A STATUS REPORT ON THE NATIVE AND NATURALIZED ORCHIDACEAE OF COLLIER, MIAMI-DADE, AND MONROE COUNTIES, FLORIDA Nomenclature and common names generally follow Wunderlin (1998). Synonyms are listed, where appropriate, to avoid taxonomic confusion. VERY RARE BASIPHYLLAEA CORALLICOLA (Small) Ames Florida range: Miami-Dade and Monroe counties. Common name: Carter’s orchid. J. J. Carter was the first to see this terrestrial orchid in Florida while traveling by horse-drawn wagon in 1903 through the pinelands of southern Miami-Dade County (Long Prairie) with his two companions, A. A. Eaton and J. K. Small (Correll, 1950). The type specimen was collected in the same locality by Carter, Eaton, and Small in 1906. Since those early years this orchid has been seen on relatively few occasions. In addition to its rarity, it is diminutive, anthesis is just a few weeks, and it has the habit of lying dormant through its normal flowering season, sometimes for years. Botanist George Avery’s unpublished notes reveal that Frank Craighead found a small colony of plants near Osteen Hammock on Long Pine Key in Everglades National Park sometime before 1971. These plants disappeared shortly after their discovery and it was suspected that they were illegally collected. In September 1982, Everglades National Park botanist Jim Snyder discovered three plants in a research transect on Long Pine Key and these were identified by Avery. 5 Hammer: A STATUS REPORT ON THE NATIVE AND NATURALIZED ORCHIDACEAE OF COLLIER, MIAMI-DADE, AND MONROE COUNTIES, FLORIDA Basiphyllaea showed up again in a different location on Long Pine Key when Alan Herndon found a single plant in bud in October 1987. In 1988, Herndon also found this species for the first time in Florida outside of Miami-Dade County in the pine rocklands of Big Pine Key in the Lower Florida Keys (Monroe County). During that same year Chuck McCartney reported this species near Osteen Hammock in Everglades National Park. Yet another discovery came in September 1991. While on a field trip with a group studying grasses, biologist George Gann and others noticed a number of flowering specimens growing in a pine- oak ecotone at the Deering Estate, a 400-acre preserve bordering Biscayne Bay. An extensive survey of the site by Carol Lippincott and the author revealed a total of at least 50 plants. This is the largest population ever discovered in Florida and the northernmost Florida site as well. Inspections of this site by the author over the past nine years, however, have been fruitless. A small population is also known from a remnant pine rockland parcel in Naranja (Pine Island Tract) that is presently owned by the Miami-Dade School Board. The author observed six plants in flower at this site in September 1993. There is also a small population in the vicinity of Deer Hammock on Long Pine Key in Everglades National Park. 6 Hammer: A STATUS REPORT ON THE NATIVE AND NATURALIZED ORCHIDACEAE OF COLLIER, MIAMI-DADE, AND MONROE COUNTIES, FLORIDA Although there are a number of sites in southern Florida where this species has been observed, it still should be treated as a very rare taxon. Its global range includes southern Florida, the Bahamas, Cuba, Hispaniola, and Puerto Rico.

  • "National List of Vascular Plant Species That Occur in Wetlands: 1996 National Summary."
    Intro 1996 National List of Vascular Plant Species That Occur in Wetlands The Fish and Wildlife Service has prepared a National List of Vascular Plant Species That Occur in Wetlands: 1996 National Summary (1996 National List). The 1996 National List is a draft revision of the National List of Plant Species That Occur in Wetlands: 1988 National Summary (Reed 1988) (1988 National List). The 1996 National List is provided to encourage additional public review and comments on the draft regional wetland indicator assignments. The 1996 National List reflects a significant amount of new information that has become available since 1988 on the wetland affinity of vascular plants. This new information has resulted from the extensive use of the 1988 National List in the field by individuals involved in wetland and other resource inventories, wetland identification and delineation, and wetland research. Interim Regional Interagency Review Panel (Regional Panel) changes in indicator status as well as additions and deletions to the 1988 National List were documented in Regional supplements. The National List was originally developed as an appendix to the Classification of Wetlands and Deepwater Habitats of the United States (Cowardin et al.1979) to aid in the consistent application of this classification system for wetlands in the field.. The 1996 National List also was developed to aid in determining the presence of hydrophytic vegetation in the Clean Water Act Section 404 wetland regulatory program and in the implementation of the swampbuster provisions of the Food Security Act. While not required by law or regulation, the Fish and Wildlife Service is making the 1996 National List available for review and comment.

  • 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.

  • Generic and Subtribal Relationships in Neotropical Cymbidieae (Orchidaceae) Based on Matk/Ycf1 Plastid Data
    LANKESTERIANA 13(3): 375—392. 2014. I N V I T E D P A P E R* GENERIC AND SUBTRIBAL RELATIONSHIPS IN NEOTROPICAL CYMBIDIEAE (ORCHIDACEAE) BASED ON MATK/YCF1 PLASTID DATA W. MARK WHITTEN1,2, KURT M. NEUBIG1 & N. H. WILLIAMS1 1Florida Museum of Natural History, University of Florida Gainesville, FL 32611-7800 USA 2Corresponding author: [email protected] ABSTRACT. Relationships among all subtribes of Neotropical Cymbidieae (Orchidaceae) were estimated using combined matK/ycf1 plastid sequence data for 289 taxa. The matrix was analyzed using RAxML. Bootstrap (BS) analyses yield 100% BS support for all subtribes except Stanhopeinae (87%). Generic relationships within subtribes are highly resolved and are generally congruent with those presented in previous studies and as summarized in Genera Orchidacearum. Relationships among subtribes are largely unresolved. The Szlachetko generic classification of Maxillariinae is not supported. A new combination is made for Maxillaria cacaoensis J.T.Atwood in Camaridium. KEY WORDS: Orchidaceae, Cymbidieae, Maxillariinae, matK, ycf1, phylogenetics, Camaridium, Maxillaria cacaoensis, Vargasiella Cymbidieae include many of the showiest align nrITS sequences across the entire tribe was Neotropical epiphytic orchids and an unparalleled unrealistic due to high levels of sequence divergence, diversity in floral rewards and pollination systems. and instead to concentrate our efforts on assembling Many researchers have posed questions such as a larger plastid data set based on two regions (matK “How many times and when has male euglossine and ycf1) that are among the most variable plastid bee pollination evolved?”(Ramírez et al. 2011), or exon regions and can be aligned with minimal “How many times have oil-reward flowers evolved?” ambiguity across broad taxonomic spans.

Transnordestina s.n., 44036-900, Feira de Santana, Bahia, Brazil 3Fazenda Rio do Negro, Entre Rios, Bahia, Brazil Abstract The monospecific genus Discyphus, previously considered a member of Spiranthinae (Orchidoideae: Cranichideae), displays both vegetative and floral morphological peculiarities that are out of place in that subtribe. These include a single, sessile, cordate leaf that clasps the base of the inflorescence and lies flat on the substrate, petals that are long-decurrent on the column, labellum margins free from sides of the column and a column provided with two separate, cup-shaped stigmatic areas. Because of its morphological uniqueness, the phylogenetic relationships of Discyphus have been considered obscure. In this study, we analyse nucleotide sequences of plastid and nuclear DNA under maximum parsimony

In nature, orchid seed germination is obligatory following infection by mycorrhizal fungi, which supplies the developing embryo with water, carbohydrates, vitamins, and minerals, causing the seeds to germinate relatively slowly and at a low germination rate. ,e nonsymbiotic germination of orchid seeds found in 1922 is applicable to in vitro propagation. ,e success of seed germination in vitro is influenced by supplementation with organic compounds. Here, we review the scientific literature in terms of the contents and role of organic supplements in promoting seed germination, protocorm development, and seedling growth in orchids. We systematically collected information from scientific literature databases including Scopus, Google Scholar, and ProQuest, as well as published books and conference proceedings. Various organic compounds, i.e., coconut water (CW), peptone (P), banana homogenate (BH), potato homogenate (PH), chitosan (CHT), tomato juice (TJ), and yeast extract (YE), can promote seed germination and growth and development of various orchids.

(Orchidaceae) and also one of largest genera within the subfamily Vandoideae Endl. Maxillaria contains mainly tropical and subtropical orchids. It is a highly disorderly genus because of the great number of species as well as a multitude of features occurring in many combinations. Both the number of species assigned to this genus, and the infrageneric classifications of Maxillaria, are not clearly resolved yet. In this paper, a phylogenetic study based on Internal Transcribed Spacer (ITS) sequences is presented. The results show the monophyletic character of the subtribe Maxillariinae and the paraphyletic character of Maxillaria. Key words: Orchidaceae, Maxillariinae, Maxillaria, ITS, taxonomy, phylogenetic relationship 1.
