Subfamily Cypripedioideae

edit
 
Cypripedioideae distribution map
The Cypripedioideae consists of the lady's slipper orchids in the genera Cypripedium, Mexipedium, Paphiopedilum, Phragmipedium and Selenipedium. Of these, only Cypripedium species are native or naturalized in New York State (and much of the temperate northern hemisphere.

Cypripedium

edit
The genus Cypripedium contains about 60 taxa worldwide. Seven of these are native to New York State.
Cypripedium subg. Cypripedium
edit
Cypripedium subgenus Cypripedium contains 3 sections of native lady' slippers.
  • pink lady's slipper (sect. Acaulia),
  • yellow lady's slippers (sect. Cypripedium), and
  • ram's head lady's slipper (sect. Arietinum).

Spiranthes cernua
Nodding ladies'-tresses
Morphologically, the species of the Spiranthes cernua complex are known to be quite variable within species but relatively similar from one species to another. Recent molecular phylogenetic research has redefined this group by moving some species in or out, confirming hybrid origins, and adding newly published species.[1]

Dactylorhiza viridis
Molecular studies have shown that Coeloglossum is embedded within a monophyletic Dactylorhiza clade, prompting Coeloglossum viride to be transferred to Dactylorhiza viridis by R. M. Bateman et al. 1997, even though morphologic differences are apparent.[1]

The 2022 New York Rare Plant Status List shows Coeloglossum viride. Long-bracted Orchid. G5. S1S2. E (endangered).[2]

Epipactis

Epipactis helleborine
No Epipactis (helleborine) species are native to eastern North America, and the only one known to naturalize there is broad-leaved helleborine (the "weed orchid", Epipactis helleborine), which can be found in wooded areas in much of New York State.

The New York Flora atlas also lists Epipactis palustris (marsh orchid) collected only in Rensselaer County in 1990. The only research-grade iNaturalist observation of Epipactis palustris in North America is in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania (June 2014).[1]
