Specklinia subgen. Sarcinula (Clade E) was found to be a highly supported clade, basically including the non-orangeflowered species of Luer’s Sarcinula . The exact phylogenetic position of Specklinia acicularis , the type species of Sarcinula , remains unclear. With its narrow leaves it is an outlier amongst the other members of Sarcinula . However, floral coloration pattern also do not suggest affinity with subgen. Specklinia . Because of this uncertainty we prefer to describe subgenus Sarcinula with a different type species, one that is also “typical” for the group but ending up consistently in the same clade in all analyses.
Eighteen species are distributed across Central America, Colombia and Ecuador, with the highest diversity in Costa Rica and Panama. A single species extends into Mexico and the Antilles, and one species is reported from Bolivia and another from the Guyanas. No species are known from Peru and Brazil.
