Orchidaceae from Lambayeque, a forgotten family for the North Peruvian flora
Project summary:
The Orchidaceae family, one of the most diverse, has been very little studied in northwestern Peru, with few species reported for Lambayeque, being necessary to review this group to elucidate the richness in the department of Lambayeque since it is currently threatened due to habitat loss by deforestation and mining.
