Abstract

Detailed variation studies of 23 species of the genus Eulopbia R. Br. (Orchidaceae) indicate that six taxa may be upheld as distinct species, together with two or possibly three intraspecific taxa, whose status can only be assessed on the basis of further field work. It is considered highly likely that the remaining 17 taxa should be relegated to the synonymy of the six species upheld, possibly together with a further eight doubtfully distinct species of which only descriptions were available.
