This new paper Morphometric analyses as a tool for the delimitation of a species complex of rupicolous Cattleya orchids from the Brazilian campos rupestres of Minas Gerais and Bahia uses linear morphometrics to investigate the distinctness of three species of orchids, Cattleya pfisteri, C. caulescens and C. pabstii as well as the nothospecies C. ×diamantinensis, all endemic to the the campos rupestres vegetaion in the Espinhaço range, Brazil.
