Caladenia
''Caladenia'', commonly known as spider orchids, is a genus of 350 species of plants in the orchid family, Orchidaceae. Spider orchids are terrestrial herbs with a single hairy leaf and a hairy stem. The labellum is fringed or toothed in most species and there are small projections called calli on the labellum. The flowers have adaptations to attract particular species of insects for pollination. The genus is divided into three groups on the basis of flower shape, broadly, spider orchids, zebra orchids and cowslip orchids, although other common names are often used. Although they occur in other countries, most are Australian and 136 species occur in Western Australia, making it the most species-rich orchid genus in that state. Description Orchids in the genus ''Caladenia'' are terrestrial, perennial, deciduous, sympodial herbs with a few inconspicuous, fine roots and a tuber partly surrounded by a fibrous sheath. The tuber produces two "droppers" which become daughter tubers ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Elythranthera
''Elythranthera'', commonly known as enamel orchids, was a previously accepted genus of flowering plants in the orchid family, Orchidaceae. It contained two species and a named hybrid, all endemic to the south-west of Western Australia. The genus was first formally described in 1963 by the Australian botanist Alex George who published his description in ''Western Australian Naturalist''. Orchids in the genus ''Elythranthera'' had previously been included in ''Glossodia'' section ''Elythranthera''. Two species were recognised: *''Elythranthera brunonis'' (Endl.) A.S.George now known as '' Caladenia brunonis'' (Endl.) Rchb.f. - purple enamel orchid; *''Elythranthera emarginata'' (Lindl.) A.S.George now known as '' Caladenia emarginata'' (Lindl.) Rchb.f. - pink enamel orchid. A hybrid between the two species was known as ''Elythranthera x intermedia''. ( Fitzg.) M.A.Clem In 2015, as a result of studies of molecular phylogenetics, Mark Clements transferred the two ''Elythrant ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Glossodia
''Glossodia'', commonly known as waxlip orchids, was a genus of mostly purple orchids from Australia. The genus was first formally described in 1810 by the prolific Scottish botanist Robert Brown who published his description in ''Prodromus florae Novae Hollandiae''. Only two species were recognised: *''Glossodia major'' R.Br. now known as '' Caladenia major'' - waxlip orchid, native to Queensland, New South Wales, Victoria, Tasmania and South Australia; *''Glossodia minor'' R.Br. now known as '' Caladenia minorata'' - small waxlip orchid, native to Queensland, New South Wales and Victoria. In 2015, as a result of studies of molecular phylogenetics, Mark Clements transferred the two ''Glossodia'' species to '' Caladenia''. Although the change from ''Glossodia'' to ''Caladenia'' is recognised by Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, "''Glossodia''" is still used by Australian herbaria, including the National Herbarium of New South Wales The National Herbarium of New South Wal ...

Aporostylis
''Aporostylis'' is a genus of flowering plants from the orchid family, Orchidaceae. At the present time, only one species is known: ''Aporostylis bifolia'', native to New Zealand (including the Chatham Islands and the Antipodes Islands).

Ericksonella
''Caladenia saccharata'', commonly known as sugar orchid, is a species of flowering plant in the orchid family, Orchidaceae and is endemic to the south-west of Western Australia. It has a single leaf and a single flower with three white sepals and two similar petals. Description ''Caladenia saccharata'' is a terrestrial, perennial, deciduous, sympodial herb with a roughly spherical, white, fleshy tuber surrounded in its upper half by a fibrous sheath. Each year a replacement tuber is formed on the end of a short, root-like stolon. There is a single, narrow linear-shaped leaf rising from the base of the plant. The leaf is pale yellowish green on both sides, hairy, long, wide and usually has irregular reddish-purple blotched near the base. There a single resupinate flower on the end of a hairy, wiry stem high. The flower is long and wide on a stalk less than long and has a strong, musky cinnamon scent but does not have any nectar. The two lateral sepals are about the same ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Leptoceras
''Leptoceras menziesii'', commonly known as rabbit orchid, is a plant in the orchid family, Orchidaceae and the only member of the genus ''Leptoceras''. It is a slender plant, usually found in large colonies and which only flowers after fire. The flowers are small, white, pink and red on a stem up to tall and is endemic to southern Australia. It was one of the first orchids from Western Australia to be described and was given the name ''Caladenia menziesii'', a name still used by some authorities. Description The rabbit orchid is a tuberous perennial herb growing to a height of , sometimes with one to three flowers. The leaf is glabrous, variable in size and shape but mostly lance-shaped to broadly egg-shaped to oblong, long and wide. There are one to three small flowers, sometimes all white but more usually white, pink and red. The top sepal at the back of the flower is about long, dark reddish, spoon-shaped and forms a hood over the column. The back of the dorsal sepal h ...

Pheladenia
''Pheladenia deformis'', commonly known as blue fairy orchid or blue beard is the only species of the flowering plant genus ''Pheladenia'' in the orchid family, Orchidaceae and is endemic to Australia. It was originally named as ''Caladenia deformis'' and has since had several name changes. Plants have a single, narrow, hairy leaf and usually blue flowers with relatively short, broad sepals and petals and an unusual labellum. Description ''Pheladenia deformis'' is a terrestrial, perennial, deciduous, sympodial herb with a few inconspicuous, fine roots and a tuber partly surrounded by a fibrous sheath. The tuber produces two "droppers" which become daughter tubers in the following year. There is a single hairy convolute leaf at the base of the plant. The leaf is linear, long and wide with a few hairs, especially on the edges, about long. There is usually a single flower on a stem high. The three sepals and two lateral petals are long, wide. The outer surface usually has ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Praecoxanthus
''Praecoxanthus aphyllus'', commonly known as leafless orchid, is the only species of the flowering plant genus ''Praecoxanthus'' in the orchid family, Orchidaceae and is endemic to the south-west of Western Australia. Plants in flower lack a true leaf, although those plants that are not flowering do possess a green leaf. This species is one of the first orchids to flower each year and its creamy white, fragrant flower easily distinguishes it from other species. Description ''Praecoxanthus aphyllus'' is a terrestrial, perennial, deciduous, sympodial herb with a few inconspicuous, fine roots and a tuber partly surrounded by a fibrous sheath. The tuber produces a replacement "dropper" which becomes the daughter tuber in the following year. Non-flowering plants produce a single, stalkless, egg-shaped leaf which is long, wide and glabrous with prominent white veins. The leaf of flowering plants is reduced to a tiny bract at the base of the stem. There is a single resupinate fl ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Taxonomy Of The Orchidaceae
The taxonomy of the Orchidaceae (orchid family) has evolved slowly during the last 250 years, starting with Carl Linnaeus who in 1753 recognized eight genera.Carolus Linnaeus (Carl von Linné). 1753. ''Species Plantarum'', 1st edition, vol. 2, pages 939-954. Holmiae: Impensis Laurentii Salvii (Lars Salvius). (A facsimile with an introduction by William T. Stearn was published by the Ray Society in 1957). (See ''External links'' below). De Jussieu recognized the Orchidaceae as a separate family in his Genera Plantarum in 1789.Antoine Laurent de Jussieu. 1789. "ORCHIDEAE" pages 64-66. In: ''Genera plantarum: secundum ordines naturales disposita,···'' (See ''External links'' below). Olof Swartz recognized 25 genera in 1800.Olof Swartz. 1800. "Afhandling om Orchidernes Slägter och deras Systematiska indelning". ''Kongliga vetenskaps academiens nya handlingar'' 21:115-139. (See ''External links'' below).
