Josemania is a genus of flowering plant in the family Bromeliaceae, first described in 2016. [1]
As of October 2022 [update] , the genus is accepted by the Encyclopedia of Bromeliads, [2] while Plants of the World Online sinks it into Cipuropsis . [3] Five species are accepted by the Encyclopedia of Bromeliads: [2]
The Bromeliaceae are a family of monocot flowering plants of about 80 genera and 3700 known species, native mainly to the tropical Americas, with several species found in the American subtropics and one in tropical west Africa, Pitcairnia feliciana.
Werauhia is a genus of the botanical family Bromeliaceae, subfamily Tillandsioideae. The genus is named for Werner Rauh, a German botanist (1913–2000). Based on molecular evidence, a number of species previously classified within other bromeliad genera, especially Vriesea and Tillandsia, have been placed in Werauhia instead. Species in this genus are distributed across tropical regions in the Americas.
Tillandsioideae is a subfamily of plants in the bromeliad family Bromeliaceae. This subfamily contains the greatest number of species. Most are epiphytic or lithophytic, growing in trees or on rocks where they absorb water and nutrients from the air. Spanish moss of the genus Tillandsia is a well-known species. Bromeliads in the genera Guzmania and Vriesea are the more commonly cultivated members of this subfamily.
Pitcairnia is a genus of plants in the family Bromeliaceae, subfamily Pitcairnioideae. It was named for William Pitcairn, Scottish physician and gardener (1711–1791). The genus Pitcairnia ranks as the second most prolific of the bromeliad family. They are most abundant in Colombia, Peru and Brazil, but can also be found in areas from Cuba and Mexico south to Argentina. One species, Pitcairnia feliciana, is found in tropical West Africa and is the only member of the family Bromeliaceae not native to the Americas.
Mezobromelia is a genus of the botanical family Bromeliaceae, subfamily Tillandsioideae. The genus name is for Carl Christian Mez, German botanist (1866-1944). Some authorities treat Mezobromelia as a synonym of Cipuropsis.
Racinaea is a genus of the flowering plants in the family Bromeliaceae, subfamily Tillandsioideae. The genus is named for Racine Foster, wife of Mulford B. Foster and co-founder of the BSI. It is found in tropical regions of the Americas.
Hylaeaicum is a genus of flowering plant in the family Bromeliaceae, native to tropical northern South America. The taxon was first described by Ernst Heinrich Georg Ule in 1935 as a subgenus of "Aregelia". It was later treated as a subgenus of Neoregelia, before being raised to a full genus in 2021, a status accepted by both Plants of the World Online and the Encyclopaedia of Bromeliads.
Mezobromelia bicolor is a plant species in the family Bromeliaceae. This species is native to Ecuador and Colombia.
Josemania truncata is a species of flowering plant in the family Bromeliaceae, native to Colombia and Ecuador. It was first described by Lyman Bradford Smith in 1954 as Tillandsia truncata. Plants of the World Online sinks the genus Josemania into Cipuropsis, treating this species as Cipuropsis truncata.
Josemania asplundii, synonym Tillandsia asplundii, is a species in the genus Josemania, native to Ecuador and Peru. It was first acquired by the 1842 United States Expedition in South America.
Josemania singularis, synonym Cipuropsis singularis, is a species of flowering plant in the family Bromeliaceae. This species is native to Costa Rica and Panama.
Cipuropsis is a genus of flowering plant in the family Bromeliaceae, native to the Caribbean, southern Central America and northwestern South America. The genus was first described by Ule in 1907.
Tillandsia subg. Tillandsia is a subgenus of the genus Tillandsia.
Tillandsia subg. Aerobia is a subgenus of the genus Tillandsia.
Tillandsia subg. Pseudovriesea is a subgenus of the genus Tillandsia.
Josemania delicatula, synonym Cipuropsis delicatula, is a species in the family Bromeliaceae, native to Colombia.
Josemania pinnata, synonym Cipuropsis pinnata, is a species in the family Bromeliaceae, native to Panama, Colombia and Ecuador.
Mezobromelia hospitalis, synonym Cipuropsis hospitalis, is a species of flowering plant in the family Bromeliaceae, native to Colombia. It was first described by Lyman Bradford Smith in 1948 as Tillandsia hospitalis.
Mezobromelia magdalenae, synonym Cipuropsis magdalenae, is a species of flowering plant in the family Bromeliaceae, native to Colombia. It was first described by Lyman Bradford Smith in 1963 as Vriesea magdalenae.
