[OGD] Carnivorous orchid
I know there is one carnivorous orchid growing in the Tepui formations in southwestern Venezuela. It was published in the Annals of the Missouri Botanical Garden 76: 962. in 1989 the monotypic genus is called Aracamunia Carnevali & I.Ramírez 1989 (because of the name of the Tepui where it was found), and the species is called Aracamunia liesneri Carnevali & I.Ramírez 1989. It was discovered in 16 October 1987, and the Herbaria can be found at the Missouri Botannical Garden. A November issue of Orchids (don`t know the year) published an article named ""This native of Venezuela may be the first-described carnivorous orchid". The article says "The presence of one or two peculiar liguliform (tongue-shaped), glandular structures protruding from the base of each leaf...suggest Aracamunia may be the first insectivorous orchid", and that the structures are "compatible with flypaper insect traps". For those who have some mapping systems (like Google Earth) an check the coordinates at: 01.26N 65.47W It is thought to be carnivorous because "of the glands discovered at the base of its leaves". The altitude was 1550 m. an was found "on moss covered streambank in almost closed forest. Flowers white" Pablo Bermudez Lima, Peru ___ the OrchidGuide Digest (OGD) orchids@orchidguide.com http://orchidguide.com/mailman/listinfo/orchids_orchidguide.com

[OGD] 1718 ilegal extracted Peruvian Orchids were captured on their way to Ecuador
This is a summary of news published yesterday in full page on the most important Peruvian Newspaper, El Comercio: 1718 Orchids were recovered from a group of Ecuadorians who had no permits or papers to backup the plants. The captured persons are Jhon Valle Mas, Ciro Portilla Delgado, Edgar Acaro Tandazo y Hugo Median Troyano. This all happened in the region of Amazonas in the frontier with Ecuador. For more information and pictures of the capture you can visit these links (in Spanish): EL COMERCIO: http://www.elcomercioperu.com.pe/EdicionImpresa/Html/2006-08-27/ImEcNacional0566516.html INRENA: http://www.inrena.gob.pe/comunicaciones/notas_portada/nota060726-3.htm ___ the OrchidGuide Digest (OGD) orchids@orchidguide.com http://orchidguide.com/mailman/listinfo/orchids_orchidguide.com
[OGD] Peruvian Orchid Species
Hello to all The Peruvian Orchid Club is trying to define the current list of Peruvian Orchid species. At the time, and working with IPNI, MoBot´s and Kew´s database plus our own experience here in Peru our current list (eliminating all synonyms), shows around 3200 species in 280 genera. Peru is home of the famous Phragmipedium kovachii, Phragmipedium bessae and other important Orchid species. Every year we find new Orchid species on a race to save them before their habitats are destroyed. As you know illegal trading is allowing for a lot of these plants to be illegally extracted out of their habitat and even out of our country! On an effort to generate awareness of Peruvian Orchids we published a website on Peruvian Orchids. Pictures are very important in this task and we are publishing Peruvian Orchid Pictures on a regular basis on our website ( http://www.peruorchids.com/). We would like to acknowledge the special help we are receiving from Eric Hunt ( http://www.orchidphotos.org/) who has been helping us with hundreds of pictures we still have yet to publish, Hans Vissers from Holland who has also provided several hundred pictures and Mr. Carlos Hajek for his amazing collection of slides. Sorry but for lack of time we can't translate the accompanying data (habitat, growth habit, etc.) for those orchids but pictures talk for themselves right? We promise we will update the English version of our website this year. We have also created a new section aimed for people around the globe to help us ID several pictures we have gathered. You can browse them at: http://www.peruorchids.com/id/english/index.htm For those willing to help somehow please send comments and/or pictures to [EMAIL PROTECTED]. Your pictures of Peruvian Orchid species will be published with the proper copyright notice and not shared with anyone. Ours is a non profit association of around 30 Orchid fans trying to do our best to study and protect Peruvian Orchid species. Any help will be appreciated!

Re: [OGD] Orchids Digest, Vol 8, Issue 368
ANSWER TO NANCY Hello Nancy. My name is Pablo writing from Lima, Peru. I grow them both and when they are dormant I simply put them on a clay pot with absolute no water and no medium to avoid humidity to form fungus. Cycnoches, Catasetum and Mormodes are all the same to me. When they start a new growth wait until the roots are around one inch long and the start watering and fertilizing. What I do and seems to work until now (remember Lima is very humid) is to water with small amounts of fertilizer every day. Use charcoal as medium and put them in full sunlight gradually when they have developed longer leafs. They are very sensitive to get rotten so they have to be grown in a highly ventilated area or with a medium like charcoal that does not retain humidity. It has been working for me Hope it helps!
