Abstract
Summary
Telipogon leisberthvelezii Iturralde, M.M.Jiménez & H.Garzón, a new species of orchid, discovered in the Cordillera del Cóndor in southern Ecuador, is described and illustrated and its morphological similarities to other species are discussed. The new species is morphologically most similar to T. jostii (Dodson) N.H.Williams & Dressler but differs in the ellipsoid-obovoid petals with a bilobed base, the lip having a deltoid midlobe and dolabriform lateral lobes and a lower density of setae on the column. It is currently known from a single locality only, occurring as an epiphyte in lower montane forest.
期刊介绍:
Kew Bulletin is an international peer-reviewed journal for the taxonomy, systematics and conservation of vascular plants and fungi. Papers on conservation, evolution, palynology, cytology, anatomy, biogeography and phytochemistry are considered, where relevant to taxonomy and systematics. Review papers on topics appropriate to the journal are invited. The journal is richly illustrated with line drawings and photographs, and also features a Book Review and Notices section. Four parts (c. 640 pp) are published each year.
