MORALES-LINARES, Jonas et al. New records of Orchidaceae for the state of Tabasco, Mexico. Rev. Mex. Biodiv. [online]. 2015, vol.86, n.4, pp.1083-1088. ISSN 2007-8706.  https://doi.org/10.1016/j.rmb.2015.05.013.

Seven orchid species are reported as new records for the state of Tabasco, Mexico. The distribution of each species was evaluated for Mexico and the rest of the Neotropics considering data of floristic inventories, herbarium records and online tools. Finally, the importance of the tropical rain forest as habitat for orchid conservation in a severely altered state by deforestation and land use changes as Tabasco is discussed.
