Zeuxine sp at Kumaraparavatha- Karnataka- PKA12: 4 images.
Seen this terrestrial orchid near Kumaraparavatha, Pushpagiri WLS, Karnataka.
This was looking a bit different from the first set I shared.
Could this also be Zeuxine longilabris?


Zeuxine longilabris (Lindl.) Trimen ?


We may also take this as Zeuxine longilabris as per discussions at Zeuxine sp at Kumaraparavatha- Karnataka- PKA11


Its not possible to confirm without dissecting.

Epichile margins in Z.longilabris appears to be slightly dentate and is entire in case of Z.chowdherii. Needs dissection to confirm as … suggested.
