Habenaria longicorniculata: – I assume it was taken long back during the rainy season. Yes this is Habenaria longicorniculata J.Graham.. As the name “longicorniculata” means “long spurred or tailed”. I have seen plants with almost more than 15 cm long spur. ….. John Graham (1805-1839) is already abbreviated as J.Graham and hence logically it shouldnt be abbreviated as ‘Grah.’. Some people have this habit of abbreviating it as ‘Graham’ which is also wrong owing to the fact that ‘Graham’ stands for Graham – Robert Graham (1786-1845).
Just one more example with my species:
Peristylus sahanii P.Kumar et al. is incorrect because that P.Kumar is not me but some one else who expertises in Mycology. The correct citation of my species WILL ALWAYS BE Peristylus sahanii Kumar et al.. In best case, you should write the complete names of the authors or in worst case dont give an author citation. This goes according to the ICBN Vienna Code Section III, Article 46, Recommendation 46A, Note 1.
The Code also says the following reference should be followed while abbreviating:
R. K. Brummitt and C. E. Powell, ed (1992). Authors of Plant Names: A List of Authors of Scientific Names of Plants, with Recommended Standard Forms of Their Names, Including Abbreviations. Many of such abbreviations are available at IPNI as well as Wikipedia.

plant from gujarat found about 3000 ft height
flower white
spur long
is this Habenaria longicorniculata ? Looks like Habenaria longicorniculata My photographs for comparison are available at this link
Forgot to mention – it does not look like H. longicorniculata to me. This looks like H. longicorniculata to me as well. Flowering and fruiting occurs in August and is over by early September. Sending a few photographs. Orchids have one very strange habit. It depends on chance how much time is needed for a flower to get pollinated. Some can be pollinated on first day whereas some takes long time and hence the plant put in all resources to keep the flowers alive and active for long period. Long period can go sometime to longer than one month as per my observation in other genus. In habenaria it can go upto 2-4 weeks.

Flora Picture of the Year 2013- J.M.Garg : 9 posts by 9 authors. A very good experience shared … I was unaware of such attacks by these tiny creatures until very recently (in 2011) when we first made a trip to Chakrata region in a post monsoon period, with leeches in their peak….
Even after warnings by locals, we were almost careless before we saw bleeding toes after reaching to our hotel… the itching started after a week and persisted for two or three weeks in worst affected areas, but I believe the cost is not too big…
This certainly shows your devotion to flora documentation, thanks for sharing nice images and experience… Thanks … for sharing your experience. So leaches had made your Bhadra WLS visit memorable one. I remember … once narrating his close encounter with leaches at Amboli… As … has rightly mentioned, it shows your love and dedication towards documenting wild flora..
… fantastic find, beautiful picture, the find can never be forgotten! Many pictures become very special because of memories associated with them. I can understand the situation when leeches are crawling over the body since I have faced it many a times in Himalayan forests. The fine wounds made by the leeches either remain bleeding for long duration or remain itching for many weeks, as I found them. But then, to see many species, we have to go through these experiences which makes them memorable. Nice Shot … In summer and rainy season Leeches are a big danger in Himalayas also Garg sir beautiful picture… such a lovely orchid Beautiful post …! Encounter with leeches and ticks are almost unavoidable during trekkings and we never forget the places and interesting sightings of plants when such incidents are associated
