{"title":"British and Irish orchids in a changing world – an update","authors":"Michael F. Fay, Jacopo Calevo","doi":"10.1111/curt.12576","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1111/curt.12576","url":null,"abstract":"<p>With just over 50 native orchid species in Britain, of which approximately 30 occur in Ireland, the orchid floras of Britain and Ireland are not as rich as those of most other countries in Western Europe (Italy, for example, has >200 native orchid species), although they include representatives of all three subfamilies found in Europe: Cypripedioideae (just in Britain), Orchidoideae and Epidendroideae. Exact numbers of species vary depending on the taxonomic system followed, but Bateman (<span>2022</span>), for example, stated that 53 native species occur in Britain and Ireland. The numbers are also in flux as long-term natives go extinct or new species arrive from the Continent; for example, <i>Spiranthes aestivalis</i> (Poir.) Rich. (<span>summer ladies' tresses</span>) was last seen in England in the 1950s, and <i>Epipogium aphyllum</i> Sw. (<span>ghost orchid</span>) may also be regionally extinct, whereas species of <i>Serapias</i> L. (<span>tongue orchids</span>) are among recent newly recorded orchids in Britain (see discussion in Bateman, <span>2022</span>).</p><p>Despite (or maybe because of) the relatively low number of species, British and Irish orchids are well studied, and the data available from these studies provide useful information relating to the effects of habitat loss and climate change. This is important, because due to their complex life histories (including their pollination syndromes and their dependence on mycorrhizal fungi for nutrition for at least a part of their life cycle), orchids have been suggested to be at particular risk to environmental change by authors including Dixon & Swarts (<span>2009</span>), who wrote that “it is likely that orchids, more than any other plant family, will be in the front-line of species to suffer large-scale extinction events as a result of climate change”. More recently, Fay (<span>2022</span>, p. 9) wrote that “orchids are a fascinating group of plants, but they can also be seen as the plant equivalent of the ‘canary in the coalmine’ – due to their complex interactions with fungi and pollinators, many may be among the first casualties of declines in ecosystem health.</p><p>An important long-term study studying the effect of climate change on orchids was published by Hutchings et al. (<span>2018</span>). The authors used data on flowering time for an amazing 356 years in <i>Ophrys sphegodes</i> Mill. (<span>early spider orchid</span>) in England and equivalent data on bee emergence time to demonstrate that the pollination mechanism in this species is vulnerable to climate change, with the phenology of the partners (the orchid and the pollinator) changing in different ways in response to warmer springs; the results of this study led the authors to conclude that “continuing warming will increase the frequency of years in which this rare orchid suffers complete reproductive failure”.</p><p>Climate change could also have a severe impact on the capacity of orchids to form the myc","PeriodicalId":100348,"journal":{"name":"Curtis's Botanical Magazine","volume":"41 2","pages":"177-179"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/curt.12576","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141980499","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
