Resumen

JIMENEZ-VAZQUEZ, Alexander; VEGA, Hermes; ALVARADO, Alexander  y  MO, Edgar. First record of a natural hybrid of the genus Gongora (Stanhopeinae) and comments on the parent species. Lankesteriana [online]. 2023, vol.23, n.1, pp.1-9. ISSN 1409-3871.  http://dx.doi.org/10.15517/lank.v23i1.54261.

The first natural hybrid of the genus Gongora is described for the department of Copán, Honduras, between Gongora truncata and Gongora batemanii (=Gongora cassidea). The nothospecies described here presents intermediate characteristics between both species, such as setaceous projections on the lip, a large callus, spatulate epichile, and a cucullate hard dorsal sepal. The identity of a specimen from the Herbarium Jany Renz Botanical Institute, University of Basel, Switzerland, corresponds to the same hybrid described here. It was erroneously determined as Gongora saccata (=Gongora seideliana). The clarification of the synonymy of Gongora saccata and relevant aspects regarding the pollination mechanisms and reproductive barriers of both parent species are also discussed.

Palabras clave : Cymbidieae; Cymbidieae; Euglossini; Gongora cassidea; Honduras; Orchidaceae.
