The genus Stelis, belonging to subtribe Pleurothallidinae and one of the largest within the orchid family, has been included in two contradictory taxonomic systems, one with a very broad definition (Stelis sensu lato), which recognizes the genus as a group with great diversity and any apparent morphological synapomorphies, and another that considers a conservative definition of the genus …
Orchidaceae is the most diverse family among monocotyledons with about 24.500 species and the second most diverse among the angiosperms of Brazil with 2.440 species. Among the mountainous regions of Brazil, the Espinhaço Range deserves notorious emphasis, since it has an extremely rich and particular flora, especially in rocky fields, which have high rates of endemism. In floristic works …
The genus Koellensteinia Rchb. f. (Orchidaceae) encompasses 17 South American species. Problems related to the delimitation of its species are still present and recent phylogenetic studies denote that the genus, as presently conceived, is not monophyletic, and its relation with the nearest genera is uncertain. This project aims to: I) propose a phylogenetic hypothesis for Koellensteinia a…

The Neotropical biodiversity is product of many evolutionary processes, but several of them we are just beginning to realize and understand. To accomplish this task, well-sampled and dated phylogenies are necessary for the understanding of Neotropical diversification. The family Orchidaceae is one of the largest families of plants, with about 25000 species and 850 genera. Orchidaceae is o…
The genetic structure of natural populations can reveal interesting patterns regarding the evolution and early stages of speciation. The extensive amount of molecular markers available offers an interesting opportunity to investigate the evolution of early stages of speciation, mainly in natural populations. The main objective of this study is to apply the AFLP (amplified fragment length …
The generic delimitation of the subtribe Spiranthinae has been controversial since the first classification systems in Orchidaceae, but only recently studies based on phylogenetic relationships have clarified the position and boundaries of genera and groups within the subtribe, in particular the work of Salazar et al. (2003). For relations between the genera, the data of the nucleotide se…
