The present paper focuses on the systematics of the Specklinia glandulosa species complex. Traditionally, S. glandulosa has been considered a widely distributed and variable species, ranging from Mexico to the guiana Shield. Here it is treated as one of at least six different, albeit closely related, species. of these species, S. pertenuis and S. vittariifolia, are recognized as distinct species and removed from the synonymy of S. glandulosa, and S. alajuelensis and S. gersonii are described and il- lustrated as new to science. Specklinia chontalensis is described and illustrated from living, Costa rican material. Specklinia alajuelensis is compared with S. glandulosa and S. vittariifolia, from which it differs in its broader leaves, multi-flowered, lax inflorescence that surpasses the leaves, and smaller petals and sepals. Specklinia gersonii is compared with S. glandu- losa, from which it differs in the smaller leaves, and the smaller, orange flowers.

Pollination of Specklinia by nectar-feeding Drosophila: the first reported case of a deceptive syndrome employing aggregation pheromones in Orchidaceae
Karremans Lok, Adam Philip; Pupulin, Franco; Grimaldi, David; Beentjes, Kevin K.; Butot, Roland; Fazzi, Gregorio E.; Kaspers, Karsten; Kruizinga, Jaco; Roessingh, Peter; Smets, Erik F.; Gravendeel, Barbara (2015)Background and Aims The first documented observation of pollination in Pleurothallidinae was that of Endre ́s, who noticed that the ‘viscid sepals’ of Specklinia endotrachys were visited by a ‘small fly’. Chase would later ... -
