Morphological Continua Make Poor Species: Genus-Wide Morphometric Survey of the European Bee Orchids (Ophrys L.).
Despite (or perhaps because of) intensive multidisciplinary research, opinions on the optimal number of species recognised within the Eurasian orchid genus Ophrys range from nine to at least 400. The lower figure of nine macrospecies is based primarily on seeking small but reliable discontinuities in DNA ‘barcode’ regions, an approach... -

Systematic reappraisal of marsh-orchids native to Scotland.
The intensively studied Eurasian orchid genus has become a model system for exploring allopolyploid evolution, yet determining the optimal circumscriptions of, and most appropriate ranks for, its constituent taxa remain highly controversial topics. Here, novel allozyme data and detailed morphometric data for 16 Scottish marsh-orchid populations are interpreted in the... -

Trait analysis in a population of the Greater Butterfly-orchid observed through a 16-year period.
A large English population of the temperate tuberous Greater Butterfly-orchid, , was monitored through a 16-year period. Each June the number of flowering plants was counted and 60 flowering plants were measured for four morphological traits, selected for both ease of measurement and their contrasting contributions to the life history... -

Systematics and conservation of British and Irish orchids: a "state of the union" assessment to accompany Atlas 2020.
Prompted by concurrent completion of the latest plant atlas for Britain and Ireland, the orchid flora of these islands is reviewed in detail, focusing on 21st century progress in both systematics research and formal conservation categorisation under IUCN criteria. DNA-based phylogenies consistently circumscribe monophyletic groups that constitute obvious genera, though... -
