Jumellea is an orchid genus with 55 species native to Madagascar, the Comoros, the Mascarenes, and eastern Africa.[1] In horticulture, it is often abbreviated Jum.
Etymology
It is named after Henri Lucien Jumelle, a French botanist.[2]
Ecology
Pollination
Jumellea exhibits the typical adaptions to pollination by hawk moths. However, also auto-pollination is known to occur in Jumellea stenophylla.[3]
Phylogeny
Jumellea is proven to be monophyletic.[4]
Jumellea is the sister group to Aeranthes.[4][5][6] Both genera together are the sister group to Angraecum:[6][5]
  | |||||||||||||
Angraecum evolved into a separate lineage about 9.12 million years ago, and the genera Jumellea and Aeranthes separated about 9.55 million years ago. This means these genera date back to the Miocene.[6]
