Suresh (Orchidaceae). The plant you have forwarded is Bulbophyllum rosemarianum which is from Orchidaceae and found in Western ghats of Maharashtra, Goa, Karnataka and Kerala. I have an inquiry to all of you that as i am working on Genus Dipcadi Family Liliaceae of Maharashtra so i am searching for locations of its species. As have collected most of them but in case of Dipcadi concanense i want more data on its collection sites. If anyone has collected the plant from anywhere in Maharashtra please forward me the details of site of collection. As per my observations there is no difference between Bulbophyllum rosemarianum and Bulbophyllum sterile only colour variations. One of our Botanical Assistant had seen both type of colour differences in same bunch of Bulbophyllum sterile in Mookambika Wildlife sanctuary in Karnataka.
