Phylogenetic reassessment of Acianthera (Pleurothallidinae: Orchidaceae)
(2016-12-31)
The phylogenetic relationships within the Acianthera affinity are re-evaluated using Bayesian analyses of nrITS and chloroplast matK sequence data. Emphasis is made on species from the Antilles, Central America and the ...
A new Muscarella from Tapanti National Park, Costa Rica
(2021)
A new species of Muscarella from Costa Rica, is described and illustrated. Muscarella tapantiensis most resembles M. coeloglossa but differs in the longer pedicels (3-5 vs. 1-2 mm), the shorter (2.5-2.8 vs. 3.75 mm), connate ...
Lepanthes aures‐ursinae and L. vertebrata spp. nov. (Orchidaceae: Pleurothallidinae) from Panama
(2017)
Panama is still far from completing its orchid flora inventories, where large genera such as Lepanthes (Pleurothallidinae) reveal novelties regularly. Here, we describe and illustrate two new species of Lepanthes. Lepanthes ...
Lycaste Lindl.
(2020)
The British botanist John Lindley established Lycaste in Edwards’s Botanical Register in 1843. Based on morphological characters, he separated this group of orchids from the genus Maxillaria Ruiz & Pav. The generic name ...
Una nueva especie de Cischweinfia (Orchidaceae: Oncidiinae) de Costa Rica, con hábito y flores muy pequeñas

Se describe e ilustra, de Costa Rica, una nueva especie de Cischweinfia, C. gersonii. Se compara con C. pygmaea del Ecuador, de la cual se puede distinguir por la infl orescencia sucesiva con las fl ores abiertas una a la ...
Three new species of Dracontia (Pleurothallidinae, Orchidaceae) from Costa Rica
(2013-06)
Three new species of Dracontia are described and illustrated from Costa Rica and comparisons with close relatives are made. A short discussion for the preference of describing them in Dracontia instead of Stelis is given. ...
Florae costaricensis subtribui pleurothallidinis prodromus—Systematics of Echinosepala (Orchidaceae)
(2020-12)
We provide a general introduction to the prodromi to Flora Costaricensis, and an introduction to the precursors of subtribe Pleurothallidinae. We present a systematic revision of the genus Echinosepala for the flora of ...
The orchid genomic toolkit
(2018)
The application of genomic studies to orchids enables increasingly detailed discoveries of the evolution of both species and organs. We discuss different evolutionary questions that can be addressed using such approaches, ...
Genus-level taxonomical changes in the Lepanthes affinity (Orchidaceae: Pleurothallidinae)
(2018)
We propose a new classification of the Lepanthes affinity based on previous studies and our ongoing phylogenetic re-evaluation of the Pleurothallidinae. Fourteen genera are recognized as belonging to the affinity. They are ...
Xylobium Lindl.
(2022)
Xylobium derives from the Greek words xylon, wood, and
bios, life, meaning “life on the wood or tree”. Though, it
seems contradictory that Lindley chose a name referring to
the epiphytic habit of the plant because the ...
