Untangling the taxonomy, molecular phylogeny and historical biogeography of Amazonian Ormosia (Leguminosae, Papilionoideae)

Project summary:

One of the first tasks of my thesis project is to review type collections, update the nomenclature and obtain comprehensive records on the geographic distribution and ecological preferences of the species. Thus, the specific goals to be reached at herbarium collections are the following: 1. Analyze the Ormosia collection, including type specimens; 2. Update the unidentified collections of Ormosia and related genera; 3. Gather morphological and ecological data from herbarium specimen labels for studies on character evolution, dispersal, and habitat preference.
