Abstract: Three new combinations under the genus Bulbophyllum and one new combination under the genus Dendrobium are proposed. This work is aimed to solve the ambiguity in the Philippine Orchidaceae.
Introduction: Recent studies (Hosseini & Dadkhah 2016, Hosseini et al. 2016, Pridgeon et al. 2014, Schuiteman 2011, Xiang et al. 2013) have proposed that Epicrianthes Blume and Euphlebium (Kraenzl.) Brieger should be treated as congeneric with Bulbophyllum Thouars and Dendrobium Sw., respectively. Most names under Epicrianthes and Euphlebium were transferred already to Bulbophyllum and Dendrobium. However, Epicrianthes charishampeliae Cabactulan, M.Leon, Cootes & R.B.Pimentel (Bulbophyllum charishampeliae (Cabactulan, M.Leon, Cootes & R.B.Pimentel) Naive & Alejandro, comb. nov.), Epicrianthes jimcootesii Cabactulan, M.Leon & R.B.Pimentel (Bulbophyllum jimcootesii (Cabactulan, M.Leon & R.B.Pimentel) Naive & Alejandro, comb. nov.), Epicrianthes neilkonradii Cabactulan, Cootes (Bulbophyllum neilkonradii (Cabactulan, Cootes, M.Leon & R.B.Pimentel) Naive & Alejandro, comb. nov), M.Leon & R.B.Pimentel and Euphlebium elineae Calaramo, Naive, Cootes, H.Nuytemans & J.C.Martyr have not yet been formally transferred. Here we propose the combination of these four species under the genera Bulbophyllum and Dendrobium.
