Beautifulllllll thanks for sharing…. Taking it as Dendrobium panduratum subsp. villosum as per discussions at Orchid–20 _ID requested Yes sir
Sharing few images of Dendrobium panduratum (Orchidaceae) Habit: Herb Habitat: Epiphytic, on moss clad tree, occurring very close to the ground in semi evergreen forest. Sighting: Kottigehara, Mudigere, Chikmagalur, Karnataka, about 1100.msl Date: 28-8-2015 Taking it as Dendrobium panduratum subsp. villosum as per discussions at Orchid–20 _ID requested Yes sir!! Submitting images of an epiphytic Orchid sp for identification. This one was found growing on tree trunks very close to the ground. I was inclined to conclude that this is Dendrobium panduratum….But no pinkish tinge at all…!! Could this be Dendrobium heyneanum…???

Habit: Herb. This is Dendrobium panduratum…. Taking it as Dendrobium panduratum subsp. villosum as per discussions at Orchid–20 _ID requested 100%
This looks like Dendrobium heyneanum. This one also seems to have hairs on the labellum too. Kind of visible in the first picture. Could be subspecies villosum? Yes I am thinking, I have been wrong. There is Dendrobium panduratum subsp. villosum misidentified as D. panduratum or D. heyneanum…..of course MY MISTAKE. Frankly speaking, a lesson for me too. Personally I have been thinking all plants I have seen of this species are D heyneanum!!
Now going through these conversations made me realise I have not been paying enough attention to the labellum. I would say this is also Dendrobium panduratum var. villosum My id is based on the fact that I can see the hairs towards the base of the labellum. Which should be absent in Dendrobium heyneanum.
182-TSP-ID-14APR2021 There is some issue with the taxonomy.
Some people say there is no true Dendrobium panduratum in south India. But we have Dendrobium panduratum subsp. villosum. It has hairs towards the base of the labellum which is very much evident in this image. I will say this is Dendrobium panduratum subsp. villosum.
183-TSP-ID-16APR2021 I guess Dendrobium panduratum Lindl. ! Dendrobium panduratum var. villosum
Dendrobium panduratum Lindl. I guess ! I cant see the base of the labellum clearly so I cant confirm, but I would guess this as Dendrobium panduratum var. villosum, because all others are same. I am yet to see a true heyneanum. But you have identified many posts asDendrobium heyneanumas per details herein. Yes sir. There was a time when I made some mistakes in identification of these particular plants and labelled them either as Dendrobium heyneanum or Dendrobium panduratum.
One basic difference between them is the presence of hairs on the labellum towards base, which would be visible in front view of the flowers in case of Dendrobium panduratum var. villosum.
Dendrobium heyneanum should be smooth hairless.
In some pics I cant see properly but in others, hairs are very much visible. So I take most of the posts under D.heyneanum as D.panduratum subsp. villosum. It is not possible to confirm all plants because pics are not appropriate. Ok, …

Kindly examine and identify this Dendrobium sp (Orchidaceae)…….I understand that Dendrobium heyneana, Dendrobium panduratum and Dendrobium wightii are strikingly similar to one another. I could not place them appropriately…!? Habit:Herb Habitat:Epiphytic, growing close to the ground on lower branches,Evergreen forest Sighting:Kottigehara,Chikmagalur,Karnataka,about 1100 msl Date:09-09-2015 Its not easy to make out as I cant see anything like mucronate apex. I cant see the stem.
Proper detailed pics may help.
If I had to guess, just because all of them are found at same broad location I tend to call them same, hence, Dendrobium heyneanum. Ok I am sorry this is Dendrobium panduratum var. villosum.

Dendrobium heyneanum from KMTR Tamil Nadu These are the true beauties of western ghats that you had been hiding for so long. Thanks so much for the enlightenment!! This is cant confirm. I cant see hairs but pics are not clear.
Submitting images of a specimen which I believe is a Dendrobium spp for further identification.

Habitat: Wild, Shola forest.
Habit; An epiphytic orchid. This looks like Dendrobium heyneanum I am a bit confused, Dendrobium heyneanum or Dendrobium panduratum. I think … is right. Here you are mentioning only one species therefore use sp. instead of spp. When you have multiple species of a genus to be mentioned use spp.
Just a minor correction but important as far as taxonomic principles are concerned. Taking it as Dendrobium panduratum subsp. villosum, in view of discussions at yes

Could this be Dendrobium heyneanum….??!! Habit:Herb Habitat:Wild,epiphytic,moist-deciduous forest Sighting:Kadmane,Sakaleshpur,Karnataka,about 1400 msl Date:04-11-2016 Yes for me ! Yes this does look like Dendrobium heyneanum, a bit close to D. panduratum but they are different. Taking it as Dendrobium panduratum subsp. villosum, in view of discussions at yes .
Dendrobium heyneanum Lindl. Very nice. Dendrobium heyneanum. I need to see a true Dendrobium panduratum. Taking it as Dendrobium panduratum subsp. villosum, in view of discussions at yes
Yes, this plant is so confusing. For sure this is not D. wightii atleast. Should be Dendrobium heyneanum. Taking it as Dendrobium panduratum subsp. villosum, in view of discussions at Yes

Presenting a couple of images of Dendrobium panduratum, Orchidaceae
Habit:Herb Habitat:Wild,epiphytic,semi-evergreen forest Sighting:Devaramane,Chikmagalur,Karnataka about 1400 msl Date:06-06-2015 The note about Dendrobium heyneanum says it has laterally compressed stems which I see here. However, I can not see the rest of the details on flower – side lobes with green stripes. So I cant confirm. Taking it as Dendrobium panduratum subsp. villosum, in view of discussions at Cant confirm from these pics.
It is my pleasure to present few images of Dendrobium panduratum (Orchidaceae) Habit: Herb Habitat: Wild, epiphytic, Evergreen forest Sighting: Kottigehara, Chikmagalur, Karnataka, about 1100 msl Date: 20-05-2016 and 29-07-2016 As always I am so happy to see fruiting orchids. This identification has some issue as also pointed by … D. panduratum, wightii and heyneanum are very similar and not easy to differentiate.
We need to recheck.
Please give me some more time. Dendrobium heyneanum as per discussions at 181-TSP-ID-14APR2021-2- Dendrobium sp @ Kottigehara for ID assistance. Taking it as Dendrobium panduratum subsp. villosum, in view of discussions at Yes
