Orchids are among the most threatened taxa globally due to increasing anthropogenic threats, inherent rarity and specific conservation needs. But what are the global research and conservation priorities for this charismatic group of plants? Using information for 595 orchids on the IUCN Red List, we reviewed past research and identified key research and conservation priorities. These included understanding threats, monitoring orchid populations and habitats, species management in ex situ conservation, genome resource banks and artificial propagation, land and habitat protection and education and awareness through communication. Based on the available data, we recommend future orchid conservation and research should focus on the current gaps in knowledge and practice including monitoring population trends and distributions, ecology, threats, protection and management of species and their habitats and increasing education and awareness.

兰花保护和研究：全球红色名录物种差距和优先事项分析。

由于日益增加的人为威胁、固有的稀有性和特定的保护需求，兰花是全球受威胁最严重的分类群之一。但是，对于这种具有超凡魅力的植物群，全球研究和保护的重点是什么？利用 IUCN 红色名录中 595 种兰花的信息，我们回顾了过去的研究并确定了关键的研究和保护重点。其中包括了解威胁、监测兰花种群和栖息地、异地保护的物种管理、基因组资源库和人工繁殖、土地和栖息地保护以及通过交流进行的教育和宣传。根据现有数据，我们建议未来的兰花保护和研究应关注当前的知识和实践差距，包括监测种群趋势和分布、生态、威胁、
