Abstract
Bone, R. E., E. Sanz & S. Buerki (2014). The transfer of Eulophia beravensis Rchb. f. to Oeceoclades Lindl., a genus with its centre of diversity in Madagascar (Eulophiinae, Orchidaceae). Candollea 69: 201–205. In English, English and French abstracts. Recent phylogenetic inferences among Eulophiinae genera have resolved Eulophia beravensis Rchb. f. as nested within the near-endemic Malagasy genus Oeceoclades Lindl. This result is supported by several morphological characters found in Eulophia beravensis that are diagnostic for Oeceoclades, and we therefore propose here to transfer this species to Oeceoclades. A species distribution map and a preliminary conservation assessment are also provided.
