In spite of their small global area and restricted distributions, tropical montane forests (TMFs)
are biodiversity hotspots and important ecosystem services providers, but are also highly …

Aim We conduct a biogeographical assessment of orchids in a global biodiversity hotspot to
explore their distribution and occurrences of local hotspots while identifying geographic …

Rare species are important targets for biodiversity conservation efforts because rarity often
equates to small populations and increased endangerment. Rare species are prone to …

Phalaenopsis amabilis is an Indonesia native orchid species having large, white flowers
with yellow labellum coloration. This studies aimed to develop Phal. amabilis …

The co-occurrence of orchids and bryophytes at occupied sites on host trees has been
documented on several occasions, particularly in the tropics, and it may represent an …

" We investigated the physiological responses of two epiphytic orchids under three light
regimes of 20, 50, and 70% of total daily radiation under drought and rewatering conditions …

Premise of research. Epiphytic bromeliads endure intense seasonal environmental changes
in the canopy of dry tropical deciduous forests. The analysis of the physiological responses …

We carried out a posthurricane evaluation of Broughtonia cubensis (Lindl.) Cogn., an
endemic Cuban epiphytic orchid, after Hurricane Ivan (2004). We studied the transient …

Starting in the late 1800's orchids were heavily poached, leaving many species to reach
critically low numbers. Coupled with habitat loss and urbanization many orchid populations …

Conclusions. Individuals of T. brachycaulos displayed modest leaf physiological responses
to the strong seasonal environmental changes within the canopy of this tropical forest. Such …
