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... -

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 …
