Recombinations in Western Australian Orchidaceae 1

Abstract

Two new species from Western Australia were recently described under the segregate genera Hydrorchis (Jones and Brockman 2005) Microtis) and Oligochaetochilus (Jones 2004) Pterostylis). This paper provides the necessary recombinations of these new taxa into the genera accepted at PERTH, in order that they may be dealt with adequately in Western Australia. Future short communications in this series will deal with any further taxa so described, until a broadly accepted consensus is reached with respect to the boundaries of these genera.
