Contributions to the orchid flora of Thailand XIV

Abstract

When Gunnar Seidenfaden died on 9 February 2001 he left all his orchid‐related materials to the Botanical Museum and Library, University of Copenhagen. These materials included an unfinished manuscript for the present paper which was subsequently completed by the junior author. Thus, the present paper constitutes the final part in the series “Contributions to the Orchid Flora of Thailand” that was initiated in 1969. Like the preceding parts, no. XIV provides scattered information to update the taxonomy, nomenclature, and distribution knowledge of the Thai orchid flora. The following taxa are dealt with: Pecteilis hawkesiana (comb, nov.), Epipactis flava, Zeuxine longilabris, Dendrobium lamyaiae, Epigeneium chapaense, Glomera sp., Calanthe odora, Pelatantheria ctenoglossa, Macropodanthus alatus, Armodorum siamensis, Echioglossum simondii, and Acampe joiceyana (comb. nov.).
