藏南虎舌兰分类地位的探讨

Discussion on the Taxonomic Status of Epipogium sessanum

摘要:

为对Epipogium sessanum的分类地位进行探讨，通过野外调查、标本比对和文献研究，Epipogium sessanum与虎舌兰(E. roseum)花部特征差异明显，建议恢复其独立种地位，并新拟中文名：藏南虎舌兰。

Abstract:

The taxonomic status of Epipogium sessanum was discussed. By field observations and a critical survey of the literature and specimens in herbaria, it was found that E. sessanum and E. roseum had obvious differences in the flower. It is suggested E. sessanum to be reinstated as a distinct species, and a new Chinese name “zang nan hu she lan” is proposed.
