Using nrITS, plastome, and single‐copy SNP data, we resolved the phylogeny of the Calanthe alliance, which originated in the late Oligocene. Its diversification process followed a two‐step pattern: first the warmest Cenozoic interval and Himalayan uplift drove the formation of three major lineages, then sustained Miocene cooling shaped further ...
