Estudos da flora orquidológica do Estado do Amazonas. III-X Brassocattleya rubyi Braga (Orchidaceae) híbrido natural novo da flora amazônica

Summary

In this paper, the author describes a new natural hybrid of Brassocattleya (Orchidaceae) from the Amazonian region, thus extending the number of taxa of this hybrid genus to four in Brazil. By analysis of floral biology and probability of hybridization, we could verify the high degree of isolation between C. eldorado and B. martiana, an important aspect in the evolution of this family.
