Systematics of Rhipidoglossum Schltr. (Orchidaceae: Vandeae: Angraecinae)
Project summary:
Rhipidoglossum is an Afrotropical angraecoid orchid (Angraecinae, Orchidaceae) genus. Studies questioned its circumscription, highlighting the importance of an up-to-date systematic approach to understand species diversity, phylogeny, and biogeography. The main objective of this project is to advance our understanding of the systematics of the orchid genus Rhipidoglossum in Tropical Africa, using an integrative approach, combining a review of herbaria collections and molecular phylogenetics.
