Biology:Lankesteriana
From HandWiki
Lankesteriana is a genus of flowering plants in the family Orchidaceae. It includes 22 species of orchids native to the tropical Americas, ranging from southern Mexico to Bolivia and southern Brazil.[1]
The genus was described in 2014 by Adam P. Karremans to include Anathallis barbulata its close relatives. The genus is more closely related to some species of Trichosalpinx and Zootrophion than to Anathallis.[2]
The genus name honors both the Lankester Botanical Garden of the University of Costa Rica, which celebrated its 40th anniversary the year the genus was named, and the scientific journal Lankesteriana, International Journal on Orchidology.[2]
