Published: May 2020

A new species of Liparis sect. Decumbentes, Damián, Salazar & Rimarachín, is described and illustrated from Amazonas (Perú), including color photographs, a detailed comparison and an identification key to all the species of Liparis sect. Decumbentes. In addition, we report Rchb.f. for the first time for the orchid flora of Peru, and select a lectotype for its synonym, Schltr.

Many aquatic organisms utilize suction-based organs to adhere to diverse substrates in unpredictable environments. For multiple fish species, these adhesive discs include a softer disc margin consisting of surface structures called papillae, which stabilize and seal on variable substrates. The size, arrangement, and density of these papillae are quite diverse among different species, generating complex disc patterns produced by these structures.

Homoplasy in the embryonic development of terrestrial and epiphytic orchids from the subtribe Malaxidinae (Orchidaceae).

During evolution, similar vectors of adaptive radiation may have evolved in the subtribe Malaxidinae. This was manifested in homologous series of variability in suspensor shape and seed coat ultrasculpture in clades of terrestrial and epiphytic orchids. The present study examines the variability of embryonic traits across clades and subclades of subtribe Malaxidinae (Orchidaceae), previously identified by molecular genetic data.

Malaxidinae is one of the most confusing groups in the Orchidaceae classification. Previous phylogenetic analyses have revealed that the relationships between the taxa in Malaxidinae have not yet been reliably established, using only a few plastome regions and nuclear ribosomal internal transcribed spacer (nrITS). In the present study, the complete plastomes of and were assembled using high-throughput sequencing.
