Abstract

Three new combinations under the genus Bulbophyllumand one new combination under the genus Dendrobium are proposed. This work is aimed to solve the ambiguity in the Philippine Orchidaceae.

Key words: Epidendroideae; Malesian flora; Mindanao; plant taxonomy; tropical botany

Introduction

Recent studies (Hosseini &Dadkhah 2016, Hosseini et al. 2016, Pridgeonet al. 2014, Schuiteman 2011, Xiang et al. 2013) have proposed that Epicrianthes Blumeand Euphlebium (Kraenzl.) Briegershould be treated as congeneric with Bulbophyllum Thouarsand Dendrobium Sw., respectively. Most names under Epicrianthes and Euphlebium were transferred already to Bulbophyllum and Dendrobium. However, Epicrianthes charishampeliae Cabactulan, M.Leon, Cootes & R.B.Pimentel, Epicrianthes jimcootesii Cabactulan, M.Leon & R.B.Pimentel, Epicrianthes neilkonradii Cabactulan, Cootes, M.Leon & R.B.Pimentel and Euphlebium elineae Calaramo, Naive, Cootes, H.Nuytemans & J.C.Martyr have not yet been formally transferred. Here we propose the combination of these four species under the genera Bulbophyllum and Dendrobium.
