Oberonia species

Orchids – unexpected surprises in the wild. – efloraofindia | Google Groups:

This is again Oberonia, but cant confirm the species.

Just to add, Oberonias are not uncommon on trees adjacent to rivers in their respective areas. One of the most common to be found in such habitat in north to north eastern stretch of India is Oberonia ensiformis!! This species also corresponds with the huge size of this orchid in the pic. They bear orange flowers. I am not a professional
taxonomist 🙁 to confirm but this is not ensiformis.

Tiny plant for id 030910MK3 – efloraofindia | Google Groups:

This cute little plant is an Orchid called Oberonia. I will check the
species and let you know. This is not parasitic by the way.
Oberonia the name stands for Prince Oberon, the prince of the fairies.

might be Eria dalzellii

it is undoubtedly a species of Oberonia sp (Orchidaceae). I wouldn’t attempt idying the species from this picture because even with flowering specimen, I felt (several occasions) it is very difficult to id species the genus Oberonia. To me, I need a specimen with active flowers on the plant for species id.

I fully agree with my friend … I even fail to id with flowers
at times…. Oberonia the Prince of fairies orchid is a hard nut to
crack.
