A taxonomic overview of Orchis sect. Robustocalcare (Orchidaceae).
Orchis patens has previously been considered to consist of three widely disjunct populations in northern Italy, Algeria/Tunisia and the Canary Islands. The last is already commonly treated as O. canariensis, but because the type of O. patens is from the Algerian populations, the name of the Italian taxon has been...Calevo, Jacopo ; Christenhusz, Maarten J.

Molecular evidence of species- and subspecies-level distinctions in the rare Orchis patens s.l. and implications for conservation
Characterizing genetic diversity and structure of populations is essential for the effective conservation of threatened species. Orchis patens sensu lato is a narrowly distributed tetraploid species with a disjunct distribution (i.e., Northern Italy, North Africa and the Canary Islands), which is facing a severe decline. In this study, we evaluated...Calevo, Jacopo ; Gargiulo, Roberta ; Bersweden, Leif ; Viruel, Juan ; González-Montelongo, Cristina …
