Lamina architecture and anatomy in the Heliconiaceae and Musaceae (Zingiberales) [PDF]
Canadian Journal of Botany, 1991 Lamina size, thickness, venation, and anatomy are studied in 15 species of Heliconia (Heliconiaceae), 3 species of Musa, and 1 of Ensete (Musaceae). The most typical laminas of these genera are large and oblong and have an acute or irregular apex and an asymmetrical cordate base.

Phylogenomics and a new classification of the tropical genus Heliconia L. (Monocots, Zingiberales, Heliconiaceae). [PDF]
PhytoKeysMembers of the genus Heliconia L. (Heliconiaceae) have evolved complex interactions with both insect herbivores and hummingbird pollinators in tropical forests and secondary growth where they are abundant and diverse. Many of these same species have also been cultivated as ornamentals around the world for hundreds of years because of their ...

Ovary structure and anatomy in the Heliconiaceae and Musaceae (Zingiberales) [PDF]
Canadian Journal of Botany, 1992 Ovary anatomy and organography was investigated in five species of Heliconia (Heliconiaceae) and three species of Musa (Musaceae). The ovaries of both genera may be longitudinally divided into three regions: sublocular, locular, and prolongation. The prolongation is the elongated closure of the top of the locules.

Validation of the name Heliconia ×rauliniana (Heliconiaceae) [PDF]
Phytotaxa, 2014 In the protologue, two specimens of Heliconia collected on different dates and locations were designated as a single holotype. Consequently, Heliconia ×rauliniana (pro sp.) must be considered an invalidly published name. This natural hybrid is widely cultivated and used in worldwide floriculture trade. The present work proposes to validate the name H. ×

The phylogeny of Heliconia (Heliconiaceae) and the evolution of floral presentation
Molecular Phylogenetics and Evolution, 2017 Heliconia (Heliconiaceae, order Zingiberales) is among the showiest plants of the Neotropical rainforest and represent a spectacular co-evolutionary radiation with hummingbirds. Despite the attractiveness and ecological importance of many Heliconia, the genus has been the subject of limited molecular phylogenetic studies.
