Abstract

Three new species of the orchid genus Pachygenium are described and illustrated: Pachygenium schmidtianum Mytnik, Szlach. & Górniak, P. triangulare Mytnik, Szlach. & Górniak and P. arechavaletae Mytnik, Szlach. & Górniak. A new combination on the species level, Pachygenium callosum (M.N. Correa) Mytnik, Szlach. & Górniak is validated. The taxonomic position of the new taxa is briefly discussed. Pachygenium is compared in a table with Pelexia on the generic level. A brief taxonomic history of Pachygenium is presented.
