A checklist of the Pleurothallidinae species recorded for Colombia is presented. The list includes 1112 confirmed species of Pleurothallidinae recorded for Colombia. In cases when it was not possible to obtain information of valid vouchers, the species were treated as reported; these species are compiled in an additional list. Information such as basionym, synonyms, original collection (type), specimen vouchers and/or literature citations, distribution by department and notes recording sources of illustrations are included. Due to the unstable taxonomic situation of the subtribe, the most recent generic changes proposed (Luer 2005) were included next to the current genus to give an idea of the possible new name. It was found that Lepanthes, Pleurothallis, Masdevallia, Dracula and Stelis exhibit the highest richness of species; the data were also compared with those recorded for Ecuador, Peru and Bolivia.

These regions are the Caribbean (Atlantic) coastal plains, the Andean mountainous region, the Pacific coast, the Eastern plains of the Orinoqufa and the Amazon Jungle (FIGURE 1). INTRODUCTION Colombia is located in the extreme northwest of South America, in the inter-tropical zone bounded by Panama, Venezuela, Brazil, Peru, and Ecuador. The country is ca. 1.1 million km2 in area, with 2900 km of coastline along the Atlantic and Pacific oceans. Because of its geographical location in the tropics, the country does not experience four well-marked seasons. Instead, dry and rainy periods are of variable lengths, occurring at different intervals within the national territory. Night and day periods are of nearly equal length during the entire year (J.P' Posada in Ortiz et al. 1992). Caribbean Coastal Plains The Atlantic coastal plains encompass flatlands below 300 m along the coast of the Atlantic Ocean. This region extends along the Caribbean coast and continues inland into the Magdalena and Cauca valleys. The average annual temperature is 27°C. Andean Mountainous Region The Andean mountainous region includes the central areas of Colombia, which extend from the farthest point south to the northern part of the country. This region forms part of the Andes chain of mountains, which in Colombia are divided into three large ranges: the Western, Central, and Eastern ranges. The uneven topography and varying altitudes in this region alter the intensity of the winds, rainfall, and evaporation, producing highly variable climatic conditions and very diverse eco- Natural Geographic Regions Colombia has a large variety of ecosystems and it is not possible to speak of a single, typical Colombian habitat. The simplest way to consider the habitats is to divide the country into five large natural geographic regions, which can be * Corresponding author. 13 14 SELBYANA 1. Atlantic Coast 2.

Amazonia 3 Volume 28(1) 2007 Pacific Coast The Pacific Coast region, which includes the entire western part of Colombia, can be divided into two sub-regions: the northern one that extends from Cabo Corrientes northwards and the southern sub-region. Overall, this region has heavy rainfall, with more than 10,000 mm3 of rain annually in some parts of Choco. The altitude of this coastal zone rarely exceeds 1000 m, and the average temperature is -27°C. Eastern Plains The Eastern Plains (Orinoquia), which include the flat eastern part of the country, have an average elevation of 200 m. Hydrographically, this region is part of the Orinoco River basin. Most of this zone has herbaceous flora and shrub-like vegetation; taller trees can be found only along the edge of rivers and streams. The average temperature is 26°C.

In addition to the Andean formation, Colombia has several isolated mountains, such as the Sierra Nevada of Santa Marta and the Sierra de la Macarena. Although these formations have different origins, they exhibit similar geographical and climatic conditions. Within the tropical regions, a vegetation type occurs between the upper limit of the continuous, closed-canopy forest and the upper limit of plant life. This vegetation type is scattered along the crests of the highest mountain ranges or on isolated mountain tops from ca. 3000-5000 m. Multiple names are assigned to this type of natural community, but the most common one is paramo. The par-amos of Colombia are centered in the northern half of the Cordillera Oriental, in the Departments of Meta, Cundinamarca, Boyaca, and Santander, and in the Cordillera Central, in the Departments of Cauca, Valle del Cauca, and the Quindio-Tolima-Caldas border regions. Most of the par-amos occur above 3000 ill, but some of the lowest par-amos are found in azonal habitats, such as boggy areas as low as 2380 m in the Cordillera Central and 2650 m in the Cordillera Occidental (Luteyn 1999). par-amos are mentioned because many collections of pleurothallid orchids of such genera as Barbosella, Brachionidium, Draconanthes, Lepanthes, Platystele, Pleurothallis, Stellis, Teagueia, and Trichosalpinx come mainly from this ecosystem type. Amazon Jungle The Amazon Jungle region (Amazonia) covers the southeastern part of Colombia. Rather flat with low hills, most of this zone is still covered by primary forest. Hydrographically, it belongs to the Amazon River system. This environmental region is characterized by high humidity and frequent rain throughout most of the year; the average temperature is 26°C (Ortiz et al. 1980). Colombian Orchid Collectors Between the years 1550 to 1810, the northwestern corner of South America became known as Nueva Granada (New Grenada). Governed under the rule of Spain, this area included present-day Colombia, Panama, Ecuador and Venezuela, bounded by Peru to the southwest and Brazil to the southeast. With many of these boundaries changing over the years, confusion has arisen as to the country of origin for early plant collections, as is the case of Stelis fissa Lindl., a plant originally collected in Quito but reported from Peru in the protologue. The first scientific endeavor to explore and record the native flora from this territory was undertaken by a young man named Jose Celestino Mutis from Spain, a disciple of Linnaeus. Mutis arrived in Cartagena in 1760 and collected numerous specimens of plants, many of them orchids (FIGURE 2). Later, in 1801 Alexander von Humboldt and Aime Bonpland, in their expedition to tropical America, landed in Cartagena (Nueva Granada). They traveled around the Colombian territory from the lowlands to the highlands, looking for plants and preparing numerous botanical speci- VIVEROS & HIGGINS: PLEUROTHALLID CHECKLIST mens. Unfortunately, many of their specimens were lost during the ocean voyage when they were sent to Paris. The rest of their collections, however, were eventually published in Nova Genera and Species Plantarum (Kunth 1816), which described many new species of orchids. Later, in the nineteenth century, Colombia was explored by numerous European collectors, who traveled around the country, collecting specimens and recording more new species. Among the collectors who visited Colombia looking for orchids were the French botanist Justin Goudot (1823) and the German collector Theodor Hartweg (1840); both of them representing commercial orchid firms in England. Hartweg's collections were sent to John Lindley at the Royal Botanical Gardens, Kew. The first and foremost authority on orchids, Lindley is considered the father of orchidology. Other important collections were made by Jean Linden of Brussels, who was sent to America by English firms, and by the Funck and Schlim expedition (1846-1852), which produced a large number of collections and new species. Professional collectors such as the brothers Klaboch, Benedict Roezl, Hermann Wagener, and Gustav Wallis traveled around the Colombian territory. Warzcewiccz, who lived in the latter half of the nineteenth century, discovered many new species for the European market. Many of these collections were sent to Hamburg for Professor Heinrich Gustav Reichenbach filius, who succeeded Lindley as the orchid authority. Despite the work of these early plant collectors, the majority of the Colombian collections were gathered in the latter part of the nineteenth century by Friedrich Carl Lehmann, a German mining engineer, who worked for 30 years in Colombia and Ecuador. Searching for gold, he could look for orchids at the same time. His numerous new species were described by Reichenbach, Rudolf Schlechter and Fritz Kraezlin. Since World War II, the majority of professional orchid collectors have been Colombian, and their contributions have helped to make the modern orchid floras of Colombia possible [(Luer in Ortiz et aL 1991).] In addition, the Colombian orchid growers who have worked in recent decades need mention. Although it is impossible to list all their names in a brief article, it is important to emphasize that without their contributions, the most recent findings on Colombian orchids would not have been published. Despite the valuable contributions of these orchid collectors and growers, the study of Colombian orchids remains incomplete. Father Pe- 15 dro Ortiz, who has worked for many years on Colombian orchids, recognizes 3400 orchid species in his most recent list. No comprehensive work, however, yet includes descriptions of the orchid species, detailed illustrations, taxonomic keys, distribution data, and patterns of endemism. For Pleurothallidinae, in particular, a taxonomic list recording 153 species of Masdevallia and 72 species of Dracula has been published (Farfan & Calderon 2003). In addition, a species list of Colombian Lepanthes (Farfan et aL 2003) found the genus represented by 270 species. The geographic and climatic characteristics of Colombia produce a significant richness of orchids that represents most of the neotropical orchid groups. This study found that 1112 species of the total recorded by Father Ortiz correspond to Pleurothallidinae subtribe and represent about 33% of the Colombian orchids. PLEUROTHALLIDINAE Pleurothallid orchids are a Illajor cOlllponent of the neotropical flora and epiphytic vegetation. They have a wide geographic range from southern Florida, the West Indies, and Mexico to southern Brazil and areas north of Argentina. The most species-rich regions are the Andes of Colombia, Ecuador, and Peru (Luer 1986; Pridgeon et al. 2005). Most pleurothallid species have restricted distribution ranges, making them more vulnerable to extinction. Thus these species require scientific study before it is too late to protect them. In the classification by Dressler (1981), Pleurothallidinae is located in the tribe Epidendreae, composed of 26 genera. Later, Dressler (1993) separated the tribe into New World and Old World taxa, locating Pleurothallidinae with the New World taxa and composed of 28 genera. Recent studies on Epidendroideae, which take into account additional data sources such as DNA (van den Berg et aL 2005, Chase et aL 2003) suggest that the subtribe should be kept within this tribe. Classification within the subtribe, however, presents a more complex situation. Carl Luer, considered the major researcher on pleurothallid orchids, has been studying these plants for three decades. His monumental work, leones Pleurothallidinarum, constitutes the most complete and detailed work on Pleurothallidinae, although Luer's main sources of information are plant morphology and the habitat of the species. In the last decade, new taxonomic treatments have contributed to the knowledge of Pleurothallids (i.e., Chase et aL 2003; Pridgeon et aL 16 SELBYANA Volume 28(1) 2007 FIGURE 2. Historical map of New Grenada showing the inclusion of Colombia, Ecuador and Panama under one country (Pinkerton 1811). 2001, 2005). The total number of genera and their delineation, however, remains unclear; different numbers of genera for the pleurothallid subtribe have been proposed, ranging from 32 to 89 generic names in current use (Williams 2006). For a complete list see http:// www·ftmnh.uft·edu!herbariumlpleuro!manplan! ManPlan.htm. Pleurothallidinae constitutes one of the largest natural groups within the family Orchidaceae; it VIVEROS & HIGGINS: PLEUROTHALLID CHECKLIST has been estimated that there are 4000 species in this group (Dressler 1993a). Plants from the subtribe are distinguished by single-leaved, thin secondary stems known as ramicauls and a deciduous ovary (FIGURE 3) articulated with the pedicel (Luer 1986). The primary stem, rhizome, is variable, and it is possible to find plants caespitose with abbreviated rhizome or repent plants with longer rhizomes. The ramicaule (secondary stem) corresponds to the aerial stem that bears the leaf, which is generally unifoliate. However, in some species it is possible to find prolific stems which appear to have more than I leaf (FIGURES 3 & 4 show some of the morphological diversity of the subtribe). Different kinds of tubular sheaths can be observed enclosing the ramicauls. The leaves are variable, and it is possible to find thin or thick leaves, with diverse shapes. The inflorescence can be single flowered or racemose, rising from near or very near the apex of the ramicaul; most of the time the inflorescence is preceded by a bract, which in many species is specialized into a conspicuous spathe (Luer 1986). The flowers are quite variable in Pleurothallidinae; therefore it is not possible to describe here the enormous diversity of floral features. Traditionally, Pleurothallids have been known because of their "tiny flowers;" and most of the time the flowers exhibit this pattern. However, this is not always true, and some Pleurothallid orchids (i.e. Masdevallia and Dracula) exhibit showy sepals, several cm long or wide. In many other cases, the lip and petals are the attractive floral structures, or both petals and sepals are very small (FIGURE 4). Sepals can be united or free and pubescent or glabrous, and their size is variable. Petals and lip are highly variable too; it is possible to find short petals and a longer lip or vice versa, thickened lips and petals, or very thin petals with membranous consistency, among many other traits. A wide floral color spectrum exists among the members of the subtribe. The Pleurothallidinae are basically a fly-pollinated group, involving fungus gnats and carrion flies; however, there are a few cases of hummingbird pollination in some species of Masdevallia (Dressler 1993b). MATERIALS AND METHODS To compile the present work, two previous lists of all known species of Colombian orchids were examined (the Father Pedro Ortiz list and the Kew list) to search for the names of species in Pleurothallidinae. These names were then compared, looking for inconsistencies in the two 17 lists, such as synonyms or specimen vouchers recording the species, etc., that needed to be clarified to obtain a consistent final list. Searches were made at the Marie Selby Botanical Gardens library, and taxonomic databases (Tropicos, Kew Monocots Checklist, IPNI) and microfiche collections were consulted. Information about herbarium specimens was obtained from five different herbaria: COL (Herbario Nacional Colombiano), HUQ (Herbario Universidad del Quindio), MO (Missouri Botanical Garden Herbarium), NY (New York Botanical Garden Herbarium), and SEL (Marie Selby Botanical Gardens Herbarium). The data from all the species were added to a database designed previously by Higgins and Holst (2005). The latest version of the database includes 1113 confirmed species of Pleurothallidinae recorded for Colombia; information such as basionym, synonyms, original collection (type), specimen vouchers and/or literature citations, distribution by department and notes recording illustrations sources are included. When it was possible, the source space included sources of information for the species, for example, recent publications proposing taxonomical changes. The notes space included miscellaneous information like literature citations where illustration of the taxon can be found; or in the cases when the synonyms could not be verified, the source was written there, indicating that the information has not been reconfirmed. When the voucher specimens had two elevation sources, the average was calculated to facilitate the analysis of the data by elevation and the elaboration of charts. In cases when it was not possible to obtain information of valid vouchers, the species was treated as reported; these species are compiled in an additional list. In some specific cases, where new combinations have been proposed (i.e. Acrania, Specklinia, Brachycladium, among others) recently by Luer (2005), the possible new genus was located in parenthesis before the epithet. Since the taxonomy of the subtribe is still subject to discussion, and because in the last few years different proposals to change names have been raised (Luer 2004, 2005; Pridgeon et al. 2001), it is not possible to follow just one nomenclature system. We tried to keep the accepted names for the Monocot Checklist. RESULTS The Pleurothallidinae subtribe is represented in Colombia with 1112 species grouped in 25 genera (TABLE 1) which make up around 33% of the Colombian orchids.

However, these numbers are considered preliminary; many of the synonyms here listed have not been carefully confirmed by the authors. It is necessary to produce a more comprehensive long term revision of the Colombian collections, which includes visits to the herbaria, field work, and analysis of type specimens to improve this information. So far the largest concentration of species has been reported from Departments located in the Andean Region (FIGURE 5), such as Antioquia, Cauca, Cundinamarca, Narino and Norte de Santander. It was hoped that this region would show high species-richness because the three large ranges (Western, Central, and Eastern) of the Colombian Andes present a wide range of elevations. As a consequence of this, many local climatic events take place in an isolated manner, i.e., mist in the river basins, winds, rainy seasons at different times, among others. All these local events finally contribute to the presence of highly variable climatic conditions, and consequently, to the existence of many different kinds of ecosystems with high levels of diversity. Volume 28(1) 2007 Parts of Narino, Cauca, and Antioquia converge in the Choco Region, the name given to the area of confluence between the Cordillera Occidental and the Pacific coast (FIGURE 1); this region is recognized because of its high levels of precipitation, humidity and plant diversity. The Choc6 Department is included in this zone, and naturally displays also high richness of Pleurothallidinae species (FIGURE 5). When the number of species per elevation range was analyzed (FIGURE 6), it was found that most of the species are distributed between 1000 and 3000 m, with a richness peak between 2000-2500 m. These elevations are found primarily in the Andean region; therefore, the elevation data also, support the highest richness of Pleurothallidinae in this zone. In this elevation range the major ecosystem is the cloud forest, which is characterized by high humidity levels and high abundance of mosses and lichens, which together form an ideal habitat for these sorts of orchids. It is necessary to make clear that some of the data could be biased, because some Departments have been highly sampled, as for example Antioquia, Cauca and Norte de Santander; while in many others the field work has been less intensive. In addition, it was found that many collections do not have collection data, which negatively impacted the calculation of the distribution. Unfortunately, the Colombian exploration work has decreased notably in the last two decades, due to the security problem in the country, which has had a negative effect on the study of Colombian flora. Therefore, the increase in the scientific visits would modify the results here presented because it is possible that many of the species overlap in the different regions, and also many new species could be described from different regions. Considering our present data, Lepanthes and Pleurothallis correspond to the genera with the largest number of species (TABLE 1), with more than 270 species each. Just these two genera represent around 50% of the total richness of Pleurothallidinae in Colombia (FIGURE 7). MasdevaUia and Stelis also show high richness. Masdevallia is represented by 148 species and Stelis by 117. Since these four genera are the most diversified in the subtribe, these values seem reasonable. These data are close to those reported from Ecuador (Dodson 2005), which show that of the 13 largest genera of the Ecuadorian orchids, seven belong to Pleurothallidinae; and the subtribe makes up more than 51 % of the Ecuadorian orchids. The genera with the largest number of species are also Pleurothallis represented by 473 VIVEROS & HIGGINS: PLEUROTHALLID CHECKLIST Amazonas 5 7 8 Caldas Caqueta 4 13 14 16 17 19 20 Cordoba Cundinamarca Guajira Huila Magdalena Meta 2 4 2 23 24 25 27 Putumayo Quindfo Risaralda Santander 40 15 46 52 29 Tolima 21 5 57 1 6 Without collection data FIGURE 5.

Colombian orchids, however, need to be studied in more detail before more detailed comparisons can be made. Vasquez and Ibisch (2000) studied the Pleu- rothallidinae from Bolivia. They recorded 371 species belonging to 21 genera. They also found that Pleurothallis, Lepanthes, Stelis, and Masdevallia were the most diverse genera in this part of the continent. They also reported data 350,----------------------------------------------SoセM RUPKMセ RッセM QUPセM QoセM o KMセイ⦅NL@ 0-500 FIGURE 6. 5001000 10001500 15002000 20002500 25003000 Number of pleurothallid species recorded per elevation range. 30003500 35004000 Volume 28(1) 2007 SELBYANA 22 Others 4000.------------------------, Dracula 7% 3000 Lepanthes 24% Stelis 11% 13% 25% FIGURE 7.

In Bolivia 28% of the orchids correspond to Pleurothallidinae, and in Peru 25% are also of this subtribe (FIGURE 8). Dracula has not been reported from Bolivia, and Peru has just two species. As reported by Luer (1993), the greatest concentration of species occurs on the forested slopes of northwestern Ecuador and in the Western and Central cordilleras of Colombia. In fact, in Colombia 73 species have been found, and 42 have been recorded from Ecuador. The number of species estimated for the 25 genera of Pleurothallidinae represented in Colombia, as well as the number of species recorded for Ecuador, Bolivia and Peru, can be observed in TABLE 1. These data seem to agree with the suggestions of several authors (Luer 1986-2005, Pridgeon et a1. 2005), who propose that the most species-rich regions are the Andes of Colombia, Ecuador, and Peru. Ecuador has the highest diversity of Pleurothallidinae, Colombia is second, and Peru and Bolivia are third and fourth respectively. At the same time, the percentage of Pleurothallidinae with respect to all the orchids recorded from these countries is comparatively high for each country (FIGURE 8). The large richness of species recorded from the north part of South America represents an opportunity to carry out research, and in so doing, to answer questions about evolution, ecology and phylogeny. According to Dressler (1993), "The Orchidaceae have all the earmarks of a group in active evolution; species, genera, FIGURE 8. Ratio of Pleurothallidinae in relation to the species of Orchidaceae recorded for Colombia, Ecuador, Bolivia, and Peru. Note: The percentage corresponds to the number of Pleurothallidinae in relation to the total number of Orchidaceae recorded for each country. tribes and subtribes are all difficult to delimit. It is an excellent group for studying evolution." The Pleurothallidinae subtribe is perhaps one of the clearest examples of this radiation, since just for Pleurothallis, 2000 species have been estimated. At the same time, the genus has been constantly divided into subgenera and many of these subgenera into sections, because due to its high variability, subdivision has been the more practical way to study it. Pleurothallis could be considered then as a group in constant change, which could be still in active evolution. To further illustrate this idea, consider the genus Teagueia. lost (2000) recorded 26 new species of this genus from the Pastaza watershed in Ecuador. Prior to his work, only six species of Teagueia were known. All the species were found growing on four adjacent mountains 1012 km apart. By means of this discovery, lost suggests that the 26 new species probably evolved from a common ancestor and also that it seems likely of recent origin. Could similar settings be occurring for most Pleurothallidinae species and thus rendering the subtribe excessively diverse? To answer this question, scientists will need to consider the Pleurothallidinae subtribe as a conservation priority for its valuable contribution to the diversity of Andean ecosystems. Genera such as Pleurothallis, Lepanthes, Stelis, and Masdevallia merit special attention from the authorities in Andean countries, because of the extraordinary diversity of these genera in the region and the percentage that they represent of local floras.
