Lophiaris tapiae, una nueva especie del complejo Lophiaris oerstedii (Orchidaceae) de la Península de Yucatán, México

[摘要] Lophiaris tapiaeBalam & Carnevali (Orchidaceae: Oncidiinae) is described and illustrated. The new species is known only from the Escarcega area, and the Candelaria and Palizada rivers margins in the state of Campeche, Mexico. It is compared with species of theLophiaris oerstediicomplex, particularly withL. andrewsiae , to which it is closely related. A distribution map for the species and an identification key for all taxa of theL. oerstediicomplex are included. We propose an “in danger of extinction” (P) conservation status forL. tapiaewhen assessed against the Method for Evaluation of Risk of Extinction for Mexican Wild Species (MER) criteria.
