Abstract

A new natural hybrid of Cymbidium (Orchidaceae), C. × ShangrilaenseFrom the province of Yunnan, China, it is illustrated and described. This entity can be a natural hybrid between C. tracyanum and DO. Gaoligonense. Morphologically, it differs from the first by epidermal stripes and the morphology of the column and the middle lips and the last one by its flower veins and the morphology of the lips. The molecular analysis based on the nuclear DNA (ITS) clearly indicated a natural hybrid ratio to the Cymbidium species group, while the plastidium DNA tree (Matk and RBCL) confirmed the natural hybrid as a sister a sister C. tracyanum, do. subgenre Cyperorchis.
