Epidendrum Subsect. Tuberculata
''Epidendrum'' subsect. ''Tuberculata'' is a subsection of the section ''Epidendrum sect. Schistochila, Schistochila'' of the subgenus ''Epidendrum subg. Amphiglottium, Amphiglottium'' Lindl. of the genus ''Epidendrum'' of the Orchidaceae. This subsection differs from the subsection ''Epidendrum subsect. Integra, Integra'' in that the margins of the trilobate labellum (botany), lip are dentate or lacerate. This subsection differs from the subsection ''Epidendrum subsect. Carinata, Carinata'' by possessing a callus, or tubercule on the midlobe of the lip. In 1861, Rchb.f., Reichenbach recognized 22 species in this subsection. Many, but not all, have since been brought into synonymy with ''Epidendrum secundum''.apps.kew.org/wcsp/ (Page numbers refer to Reichenbach, 1861.) * ''Epidendrum catillus, E. catillus'' Rchb.f. & Warsz.(1854) (p. 393-394) * ''Epidendrum cochlidium, E. cochlidium'' Lindl.

Epidendrum Secundum
''Epidendrum secundum'', one of the crucifix orchids, is a poorly understood reed stemmed species, which Dressler (1989) describes as "the ''Epidendrum secundum'' complex." According to Dressler, there are dozens of varieties, some of which appear to deserve species rank. Arditti and Ghani note that ''E. secundum ''has the distinction of bearing the longest seeds known in the Orchidaceae, 6.0 mm long. By comparison, the seeds of ''E. ibaguense'' (another crucifix orchid) are only 2.9 mm long. Like the other members of ''E.'' subg. ''Amphiglottium'', ''E. secundum'' is a sympodial plant which has thin stems covered from the base with imbricating sheaths which are leaf bearing above, a terminal inflorescence covered at its base with thin imbricating sheaths, and flowers with the lip adnate to the column to its apex. The flowers are non-resupinate (unlike '' E. ibaguense'' and '' E. radicans''), can come in shades of lilac, red, orange, or yellow, an ...

Epidendrum Ellipticum
''Epidendrum'' , abbreviated Epi in the horticultural trade, is a large neotropical genus of the orchid family. With more than 1,500 species, some authors describe it as a mega-genus. The genus name (from Greek ''επί, epi'' and ''δένδρον, dendron'', "upon trees") refers to its epiphytic growth habit. When Carl Linnaeus named this genus in 1763, he included in this genus all the epiphytic orchids known to him. Although few of these orchids are still included in the genus ''Epidendrum'', some species of ''Epidendrum'' are nevertheless not epiphytic. Distribution and ecology They are native to the tropics and subtropical regions of the American continents, from North Carolina to Argentina. Their habitat can be epiphytic, terrestrial (such as '' E. fulgens''), or even lithophytic (growing on bare rock, such as '' E. calanthum'' and '' E. saxatile''). Many are grown in the Andes, at altitudes between 1,000 and 3,000 m. Their habitats include humid ju ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Kunth
Carl Sigismund Kunth (18 June 1788 – 22 March 1850), also Karl Sigismund Kunth or anglicized as Charles Sigismund Kunth, was a German botanist. He is known for being one of the first to study and categorise plants from the American continents, publishing ''Nova genera et species plantarum quas in peregrinatione ad plagam aequinoctialem orbis novi collegerunt Bonpland et Humboldt'' (7 vols., Paris, 1815–1825). Born in Leipzig, Kunth became a merchant's clerk in Berlin in 1806. After meeting Alexander von Humboldt, who helped him attend lectures at the University of Berlin, Kunth became interested in botany. Kunth worked as Humboldt's assistant in Paris from 1813 to 1819. He classified plants that had been collected by Humboldt and Aimé Bonpland during their journey through the Americas. When Kunth returned to Berlin in 1820, he became Professor of Botany at the University of Berlin, as well as the Vice President of the Berlin botanical garden. In 1829, he was elected membe ...
