Maxillareae

Is this new stub really a typo which should become a redirect to this article, or are they genuinely different? PamD 07:03, 27 April 2013 (UTC)

Not consistent with the only source given

The only source given does not support the division into tribes as in the article. The source accepts only Eriopsidinae, Oncidiinae, Stanhopeinae, Coeliopsidinae, Maxillariinae, and Zygopetalinae, yet the article lists 10 subtribes. Peter coxhead (talk) 08:34, 8 September 2020 (UTC)

I've posted this on Peter's talk page, but I think I should add it here as well. I found an article that talks about Maxillarieae sensu Whitten being subsumed into Cymbidieae. Here's a quote: "Traditionally, Zygopetalinae have been placed in tribe Maxillarieae; however, as molecular data indicate that Maxillarieae sensu Whitten et al. (2000) is sister to a paraphyletic grade of cymbidioid taxa, Chase et al. (2003) lumped Maxillarieae together with Cymbidiinae, Eulophiinae, Bromheadiinae, and Catasetinae to create a broader and monophyletic Cymbidieae" (https://www.redalyc.org/pdf/443/44339808001.pdf). Whitten also has another paper which accepts Maxillariinae as a subtribe of Cymbidieae (https://bsapubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.3732/ajb.94.11.1860) — Preceding unsigned comment added by JadeSpire (talk • contribs) 23:37, 8 September 2020 (UTC)

It seems that several of the genera listed on this page have been updated to reflect the currently accepted taxonomy; it's just that this page hasn't caught up. JadeSpire (talk) 23:43, 8 September 2020 (UTC)

I've now redirected the page to Maxillariinae. The detailed listing of subdivisions here is too out-of-date to be moved there. I've added some references to Maxillariinae, which now needs to be expanded. Peter coxhead (talk) 08:35, 9 September 2020 (UTC)
