Summary. Liparis Rich. is rather large genus of orchid family (Orchidaceae), which includes 320-350 species widely distributed in tropical, subtropical and temperate areas of the world with maximal diversity in tropical Asia (Chen et al., 2009). The territory of Eastern Indochina and particularly Vietnam certainly represent one of its richest taxonomic centers. Available modern monographic assessments of the genus in Vietnamese flora record here 49 species belonging to all three its recognized sections (Averyanov, Averyanova, 2003; Averyanov, 2013). Recent field investigations discovered four more species (L. caudata Aver. et K. S. Nguyen, L. delicatula Hook. f., L. gamblei Hook. f., L. longispica Aver. et K. S.

In addition, one recently discovered species of the genus is described here (L. honbaensis Aver. et Vuong) and one is recorded as a novelty for the flora of Vietnam (L. tenuis Rolfe ex Downie). As a result, total number of Liparis species recorded in Vietnam reaches presently 55 entities (Table 1). At the same time related floras, such as Thailand, Laos and China comprise 35, 13 and 63 Liparis species respectively, some of which are regarded as local endemics (Seidenfaden, 1976; Newman et al., 2007; Schuiteman et al., 2008; Chen et al., 2009; Tetsana et al., 2013). Some of these species well known in neighboring countries may be found in Vietnam additionally to strictly endemic undescribed species, which undoubtedly inhabit numerous still unexplored mountainous areas of the country. Hence, investigation and inventories of local floras in mountain systems still giving home to rich primary woods are very important to understanding of actual plant diversity of Vietnam. In this connection flora of Hon Ba Mountains officially protected now as Hon Ba nature reserve represents one of the most significant refuges giving home to aboriginal primary woods harboring many species of ancient migrations and numerous taxa of own local endemism.

Род Liparis (Orchidaceae) в заповеднике Хон Ба, Вьетнам, провинция Кханьхоа

Л. В. Аверьянов1, Чонг Ба Вуонг2, Чонг Куан Там2

Аннотация. Современные ботанические исследования позволяют обозначить Восточный Индокитай и особенно территорию Вьетнама как богатейший мировой центр генетического разнообразия рода Liparis Rich. (Orchidaceae), для которого здесь приводится 56 видов, подтвержденных гербарными экземплярами. Вместе с этим, многие горные области Вьетнама остаются пока слабо исследованными в ботаническом отношении и, без сомнения, скрывают много узкоэндемичных видов, еще не известных науке. Горы Хон Ба, представляющие ныне официально охраняемый заповедник, являются ярким примером такой территории, обладающей исключительно богатой и разнообразной флорой орхидей. Статья представляет первые результаты ботанических исследований гор Хон Ба, проводившихся в течение 2014 года, и содержит современные данные по инвентаризации флоры орхидных, посвященные роду Liparis - одному из крупнейших родов данного семейства во флоре заповедника. Представленный аннотированный обзор включает 13 видов (Liparis sect. Liparis: L. mamillata, L. ngoclinhensis, L. sootenzanensis; L. sect. Cestichis: L. balansae, L. bootanensis, L. cespitosa, L. chapaensis, L. dendrochiloides, L. honbaensis, L. mannii, L. tenuis; L. sect. Distichae: L. compressa, L. gibbosa), найденных на территории заповедника. Для каждого вида приводится правильное название, список важнейших синонимов, цитирование типа, краткое описание, распространение (для эндемиков приводится перечисление местонахождений), данные по экологии, фенологии, а также иллюстрации. Все данные основаны на гербарных экземплярах, помещенных на хранение в LE (Ботанический институт им. В. Л. Комарова РАН), VNM (Музей Института тропической биологии Академии наук Вьетнама) и PSU (Университет принца Со-нгкла, Таиланд). Почти все нахождения видов, указанные в статье, являются новыми для территории страны. Один вид (L. honbaensis) описан в качестве нового вида для науки, ещё один (L. tenuis) приводится для Вьетнама впервые, а L. mamillata и L. ngoclinhensis были известны ранее только по типовым образцам, собранным за пределами заповедника.

Introduction

Liparis Rich. is rather large genus of orchid family (Orchidaceae), which includes 320-350 species widely distributed in tropical, subtropical and temperate areas of the world with maximal diversity in tropical Asia (Chen et al., 2009). The territory of Eastern Indochina and particularly Vietnam certainly represent one of its richest taxonomic centers. Available modern monographic assessments of the genus in Vietnamese flora record here 49 species belonging to all three its recognized sections (Averyanov, Averyanova, 2003; Averyanov, 2013). Recent field investigations discovered four more species (L. caudata Aver. et K. S. Nguyen, L. delicatula Hook. f., L. gamblei Hook. f., L. longispica Aver. et K. S. Nguyen) new for the flora of Vietnam (Averyanov et al., 2016). In addition, one recently discovered species of the genus is described here (L. honbaensis Aver. et Vuong) and one is recorded as a novelty for the flora of Vietnam (L. tenuis Rolfe ex Downie). As a result, total number of Liparis species recorded in Vietnam reaches presently 55 entities (Table 1). At the same time related floras, such as Thailand, Laos and China comprise 35, 13 and 63 Liparis species respectively, some of which are regarded as local endemics (Seidenfaden, 1976; Newman et al., 2007; Schuiteman et al., 2008; Chen et al., 2009; Tetsana et al., 2013). Some of these species well known in neighboring countries may be found in Vietnam additionally to strictly endemic undescribed species, which undoubtedly inhabit numerous still unexplored mountainous areas of

the country. Hence, investigation and inventories of local floras in mountain systems still giving home to rich primary woods are very important to understanding of actual plant diversity of Vietnam. In this connection flora of Hon Ba Mountains officially protected now as Hon Ba nature reserve represents one of the most significant refuges giving home to aboriginal primary woods harboring many species of ancient migrations and numerous taxa of own local endemism.

Hon Ba Mountains represent eastern branch of Dalat Plateau, integrative central part of highland area known in modern Vietnamese geography as Central Highlands, vast elevated area of southern part of Truong Son (Annamite) Range. Various landforms spread here from sea level to the highest point of Hon Ba elevated to 1578 m a.s.l. Mountainous landscape gives here home to large spectrum of plant communities. Close sea proximity provides very high humidity observed in all elevated highland habitats, which are particularly rich in orchids. There are three new orchid species were found in Hon Ba Mountains recently, namely Vanilla atropogon Shuit., Aver. et Rybkova, Cordiglottis longipedicellata Joongku Lee, T. B. Tran et R. K. Choudhary, and Miguelia cruenta Aver. et Vuong (Choudhary et al., 2013; Schuiteman et al., 2013; Averyanov, Truong Ba Vuong, 2015). Meanwhile, very rich and diverse orchid flora of Hon Ba Mountains remains insufficiently studied. This paper reports results of botanical exploitation conducted in 2014. It contains first modern data of ongoing orchid inventory and is focused on the

genus Liparis, one of the largest orchid genus in the orchid flora of Hon Ba Mountains.

Present illustrated assessment includes annotated list of 13 species discovered in Hon Ba Mountains with their accepted names, main synonyms, data about type, short descriptions, data on distribution (localities in limits of provinces are mentioned only for local Vietnamese endemics), ecology, phenology and illustrations. All presented data are based on collected voucher herbarium specimens listed for each species and housed at LE (Komarov Botanical Institute), VNM (Vietnam museum, Institute of Tropical Biology) and PSU (Prince of Songkla University) Herbaria. Almost all records mentioned in this paper represent new localities of Liparis species in Vietnamese territory. One species (L. honbaensis) is described as a new for science, another (L. tenuis) is recorded for Vietnamese flora for the first time, two species discovered in Hon Ba Mountains (L. mamillata and L. ngoclinhensis) have been known earlier only from their type localities.

Annotated list of discovered and described species is presented below in a form of standard taxonomic treatment.
