Jumellea is an orchid genus with 55 species native to Madagascar, the Comoros, the Mascarenes, and eastern Africa.{{cite POWO |id=:29766-1 |title=Jumellea Schltr. |accessdate=9 January 2022}} In horticulture, it is often abbreviated Jum.

Etymology

It is named after Henri Lucien Jumelle, a French botanist.Genaust, Helmut (1976). Etymologisches Wörterbuch der botanischen Pflanzennamen {{ISBN|3-7643-0755-2}}

Ecology

=Pollination=

Jumellea exhibits the typical adaptions to pollination by hawk moths. However, also auto-pollination is known to occur in Jumellea stenophylla.Micheneau, C., Fournel, J., Gauvin-Bialecki, A., & Pailler, T. (2008). [https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s00606-007-0626-y "Auto-pollination in a long-spurred endemic orchid (Jumellea stenophylla) on Reunion Island (Mascarene Archipelago, Indian Ocean)."] Plant Systematics and Evolution, 272(1), 11-22.

Phylogeny

Jumellea is proven to be monophyletic.Andriananjamanantsoa, H. N. (2016). [https://papyrus.bib.umontreal.ca/xmlui/bitstream/handle/1866/15898/Andriananjamanantsoa_Herinandrianina_2015_these.pdf?sequence=4 "Systématique évolutive et biogéographie de Angraecum (Orchidaceae, Angraecinae) à Madagascar."]

Jumellea is the sister group to Aeranthes. Both genera together are the sister group to Angraecum:Farminhão, J. N., Verlynde, S., Kaymak, E., Droissart, V., Simo-Droissart, M., Collobert, G., ... & Stévart, T. (2021).

A., Martos, F., & Morlon, H. (2022). [https://peercommunityjournal.org/item/10.24072/pcjournal.179.pdf "Do closely related species interact with similar partners?

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.
