OREOPHILUS: A NEW GENUS IN THE PLEUROTHALLIDINAE LINDL. (ORCHIDACEAE)

摘要

In a 2005 publication, Lepanthes subg. Brachycladium Luer was elevated to genetic level as Brachycladium Luer. Unfortunately, this name is already occupied at the generic level by a fungus, Brachycladium Corda. We create a new generic name Oreophilus W.E.Higgins & Archila for this group of former Lepanthes, and we make necessary nomenclatural combinations.
