    Abstract With c. 28,000 species, orchids are one of the largest families of flowering plants, and they are also one of the most threatened, in part due to their complex life history strategies. Threats include habitat destruction and climate change, but many orchids are also threatened by unsustainable (often illegal and/or undocumented) harvest for horticulture, food or medicine. The level of these threats now outstrips our abilities to combat them at a species-by-species basis for all species in such a large group as Orchidaceae; if we are to be successful in conserving orchids for the future, we will need to develop approaches that allow us to address the threats on a broader scale to complement focused approaches for the species that are identified as being at the highest risk.

    Abstract Background: Due in great part to their often complex interactions with mycorrhizal fungi, pollinators and host trees, Orchidaceae present particular challenges for conservation. Furthermore, orchids, as potentially the largest family of angiosperms with >26000 species, species complexes and frequent hybrid formation, are complex to catalogue. Following a highlight in 2015, a further seven papers focusing on orchids, their interactions with beneficial organisms, pollinators and mycorrhiza, and other factors relating to their conservation, including threats from human utilization and changing land use, are presented here.
    Conclusions: The production of an online flora of all known plants and an assessment of the conservation status of all known plant species as far as possible, to guide conservation action are the first two targets of the Global Strategy for Plant Conservation Without knowing how many species there are and how they should be circumscribed, neither of these targets is achievable. Orchids are a fascinating subject for fundamental research with rapid species evolution, specific organ structure and development, but they also suffer from high levels of threat. Effective orchid conservation must take account of the beneficial interactions with fungi and pollinators and the potentially detrimental effects of over-collection and changes in land use.

    Abstract Obtaining informative data is the ambition of any genomic project, but in nonmodel species with very large genomes, pursuing such a goal requires surmounting a series of analytical challenges. Double-digest RAD sequencing is routinely used in nonmodel organisms and offers some control over the volume of data obtained. However, the volume of data recovered is not always an indication of the reliability of data sets, and quality checks are necessary to ensure that true and artefactual information is set apart. In the present study, we aim to fill the gap existing between the known applicability of RAD sequencing methods in plants with large genomes and the use of the retrieved loci for population genetic inference. By analysing two populations of Cypripedium calceolus, a nonmodel orchid species with a large genome size (1C ~ 31.6 Gbp), we provide a complete workflow from library preparation to bioinformatic filtering and inference of genetic diversity and differentiation. We show how filtering strategies to dismiss potentially misleading data need to be explored and adapted to data set-specific features. Moreover, we suggest that the occurrence of organellar sequences in libraries should not be neglected when planning the experiment and analysing the results. Finally, we explain how, in the absence of prior information about the genome of the species, seeking high standards of quality during library preparation and sequencing can provide an insurance against unpredicted technical or biological constraints.

    Abstract Sorbus avonensis, AVON WHITEBEAM, is described and illustrated. It was originally treated as a triploid hybrid to cover plants of S. aria (diploid) × S. porrigentiformis (tetraploid) parentage, but after the discovery of more identical trees in 2014–2016, it is now treated as a species. It is endemic to the Avon Gorge, England where a population of c. 47 trees is known.

    Abstract Sorbus porrigentiformis, GREY‐LEAVED WHITEBEAM, is described and illustrated. It is a neoendemic with obovate leaves and fruits wider than long, and it is widespread in south‐west England and South Wales. It was originally broadly circumscribed, but it has now been split into at least 11 constituent parts. It is a cornerstone species for Sorbus speciation in Britain. It may have originated from S. aria × S. rupicola or from an ancestral taxon in Central Europe.
