Conservation

Eulophia faberi was assessed as "vulnerable" in the 2004 IUCN Red List, where it is said to be native only to China. [3] As of February 2023, E. faberi was regarded as a synonym of Eulophia dabia, which has a much wider distribution. [1]

<i>Dombeya</i> Genus of flowering plants

Dombeya is a flowering plant genus. Traditionally included in the family Sterculiaceae, it is included in the expanded Malvaceae in the APG and most subsequent systematics. These plants are known by a number of vernacular names which sometimes, misleadingly, allude to the superficial similarity of flowering Dombeya to pears or hydrangeas. Therefore, the genus as a whole is often simply called dombeyas. The generic name commemorates Joseph Dombey (1742–1794), a French botanist and explorer in South America, involved in the notorious "Dombey affair", embroiling scientists and governments of France, Spain, and Britain for more than two years.
