Zeuxine longilabris (Lindl.) Benth. ex Hook.f.: attaching the image of Zeuxine longilabris (Lindl.) Benth. ex Hook.f. – Yes this is Zeuxine longilabris, very widely distributed in India. Recently happened to see this at Trivandrum but in garden in flowering and then from … also. Apart from India, it is also found in Nepal, Sri Lanka, Cambodia, Myanmar and Thailand. This is also the right time to search in Maharastra. Its there in wild.
I will request members who share orchid pics, PLEASE DONT FORGET TO TAKE PICTURES OF LEAVES. In the current pic also if you notice, in top bud has no labellum and it gives an indication of another (more than one) species. – The only orchid that was seen growing wild in fields in Delhi Zeuxine strateumatica, not seen for last 30 years. – This plant is collected from Wayanad district of Kerala, Actually I forgot the date of Collection. I will let you know the details soon. Anyway, I had collected this plant and photogrphed from many parts of Wayanad and also from Kozhikode (Calicut) district. I think I had encountered another species from Wayanad. That is Z. gracilis. – Another pic of Zeuxine longilabris. I had got this id’d thro efloraofinadia. Pic taken at Thattekkad,Kerala mid-Dec 2009
ID Req. fr Herb of kaiga: During my bird study , I found this climber in the kaiga forest. ID requested for the following attachment. Date/Time-: 9/03/11 13:1000
Location- Place, Altitude – Kaiga, Uttar Kannada, 380 mtrs – Zeuxine longilabris, Family : orchidaceae – Yes this does look like Zeuxine longilabris but why did you say its a climber??
Zeuxine sp.: this orchid was collected from Malkangiri near Chitrakonda. Please validate the ID.
Name of the species: Zeuxine longilabris (Lindl.) Benth. ex. J.D. Hook Sir J.D.Hooker is abbreviated as Hook.f. and not J.D.Hook. which Dr. Sarat Misra has done in his famous book on Orchids of Orissa. 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: Many of such abbreviations are available at IPNI as well as Wikipedia. Just for example in my species, the plant is to be cited as Kumar and not as P.Kumar!! Atleast we botanist should follow it. Or, dont give author citations or, give full author names. Please take this in good spirits. Secondly, your plant does look like longilabris but there is a very peculiar difference. Usually in Z. longilabris the lip tip is not so rounded as it is in your plant, it is very much trapezoidal in shape with crenulate or dentate. I will recheck once I am back to Doon. Zeuxine are identfied very much on the basis of the lip or glands inside the spur which is not visible in the pic. Z.longilabris You are actually missing something here. Would it be Z.affinis? Yes dear .., thats why I am confused too…:) This species is obviously Zeuxine longilabris and already reported (recently) from Orissa.

Zeuxine longilabris with spider: sharing picture of Zeuxine longilabris .. every flower is having spider so i thought it must be pollinator here is our expert … answer… thanks to … always prompt reply.. learning lot from u
These are crab spiders. They are ambush spiders who camouflage inside the flower and when a pollinator or other insect comes, these spider attack them. I am not sure they are pollinators unless someone gives me a proof.
Nice picture. Should have shared as the flora pic of the year. My pic of this beautiful, inconspicuous orchid – which made it to Google…. Please check here;
