Orchids naturalize less often than other flowering plants or ferns, but E. graminea has also recently become naturalized in Australia. Plants were found growing in five neighborhoods in Miami-Dade County, spanning 35 km from the most northern to the most ...

Coryanthes charlesiana (Stanhopeinae, Cymbidieae, Orchidaceae), a new species from Brazil

open access: greenPhytotaxa, 2022
A new species of Coryanthes, from the State of Alagoas in Brazil, is proposed. It comes from Atlantic Forest and only one plant has been studied, in the municipality of Atalaia. This find represents the first occurrence of a Coryanthes member in Alagoas. The new taxon is characterized by its smooth mesochile (i.e. it belongs to the subgenus Coryanthes)

Comprehensive phylogenetic analyses of Orchidaceae using nuclear genes and evolutionary insights into epiphytism

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Plant Biology, Volume 65, Issue 5, Page 1204-1225, May 2023., 2023
Orchidaceae are one of two largest angiosperm families with ~28,000 species and mainly grow as epiphytes on trees in rainforests. Evolutionary analyses of 610 orchids with 431 new transcriptomes provides a robust Orchidaceae phylogeny and suggests that the expansion of rainforests probably promoted the origin and diversification of epiphytic orchids ...

Generic and Subtribal relationShipS in neotropical cymbidieae (orchidaceae) baSed on matK/ycf1 plaStid data

open access: diamondLankesteriana, 2014
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
