ResumenOrchids are in high ethnobiological demand worldwide and are often illegally collected in large quantities, impacting their wild populations. Understanding how rural communities use these species is a relevant cultural element that should be preserved for future generations. We evaluated the traditional uses of epiphytic orchids in three communities within the “El Cielo” Biosphere Reserve (RBEC) through 98 surveys. The communities were Alta Cima, Gómez Farías and San José. Our findings indicated that the community members utilized 10 species of epiphytic orchids mostly for ornamental purposes, accounting for 78% of the uses. Notably, woman contributed to 68% of these mentions. Our study revealed that both gender and community influenced the number of orchids used in the RBEC, with gender showing the highest contribution (21.4% of the variability). San José reported the highest number of uses for orchids (four uses), followed by Gómez Farías (three uses) and Alta Cima (two uses). Lastly, Mexican laws identified three species of orchids in one protection category. Recognizing the traditional knowledge these communities possess about orchids is crucial, as it represents a fundamental part of their cultural identity and can aid in developing sustainable management and conservation strategies.es_ES
