Eulophia spectabilis Suresh) Here are some Kannada names of Eulophia nuda Lindl. (syn. Eulophia spectabilis Suresh) … daavaniya gedde, haavina more gedde, havina moothi gedde … ENVIS / FRLHT But I am not sure whether they are valid or not. Please help me with them in Kannada script if you find them valid. Please take your time; no hurry at all. This is with reference to the clarification required in respect of the following Kannada names : a) Daavaniya gedde: ದಾವಣಿಯ ಗೆಡ್ಡೆ (daavaniya = half sari’s ; gedde = tuber); Half-sari’s tuber b) Haavina more gedde: ಹಾವಿನಮೋರೆ ಗೆಡ್ಡೆ( haavina more = snake’s face; gedde = tuber) snake’s face like tuber c) Havina moothi gedde: ಹಾವಿನಮೂತಿ ಗೆಡ್ಡೆ (havina moothi = snakes snout; gedde = tuber) snake’s snout like tuber In my view the names suggested at (b) & (c) are quite good/ appropriate as they refer to the shape of the floral display. In my opinion you may include these two names. I am not sure of the name at (a). I know only the one meaning of the word Daavaniya, which means half saree.I donot know how far it (plant) resembles half-sari I could not get any other meaning for this word. Hence my doubt. Thank you very much dear … for help with the names of Eulophia nuda Lindl. We will go with: ಹಾವಿನಮೋರೆ ಗೆಡ್ಡೆ haavina more gedde … haavina more = snake’s face; gedde = tuber … snake’s face like tuber ಹಾವಿನಮೂತಿ ಗೆಡ್ಡೆ Havina moothi gedde … havina moothi = snakes snout; gedde = tuber … snake’s snout like tuber We will drop the ambiguous ದಾವಣಿಯ ಗೆಡ್ಡೆ daavaniya gedde from our compilation.
Freak Orchid Flower: This is for sure Eulophia spectabilis earlier known as Eulophia nuda. . Eulophia confusion: With reference to the August posts of … and …, there still seems to be some doubt over the simple herb Eulophia nuda. It is called amarkand or goruma in hindi, mankand in marathi, budhuvar in bengali. The root grows in the konkan area and himalaya valley. I would appreciate any knowledge of its availability. Eulophia nuda is now called Eulophia spectabilis and it is widespread in India, especially downwards from Jharkhand, Central India…. It is also reported from western Himalaya. My post was about ‘fused’ (not confused) corolla, ie of a freak flower of E. spectabilis syn E. nuda.

Beautiful pictures. More colours have been reported in this species from wild. Very good shots. All sp. names of Eulophia seem to be of the description about the flowers and not places or scientists. Again I couldn’t find this in BSI Flora Eulophia andamanensis I take my words back. My observation was based on the list of sp. mentioned in BSI Flora mah. Thank you very much … for the appreciation. Eulophia nuda treated as synonym of E. spectabilis could be covered in flora, please check. Oh yes Eulophia nuda is there. Didn’t know the synonymy.

Attachments (1) Revisited the plant, Eulophia spectabilis (Orchidaceae) that I had uploaded earlier, and was amazed to find it in fruiting stage…! Ref: My earlier uploads:TSP-APR2016-10-310 And TSP-JUL2016-03-403 Habit: Herb Habitat: Wild, terrestrial, moist-deciduous forest fringe. Sighting: Mudigere, Chikmagalur, Karnataka, about 1200 msl Cant confirm with this pic. But nice to see an orchid fruiting. I followed this particular E.spectabilis plant through its different stages of flowering, emergence of foliage and now this one, fruiting. If you have seen the flower then its perfect. Thanks for letting me know.
You know sir, there are so many Eulophias in India, most of the fruits of this genus look same except for a very few like zollingeri and flava. I have seen E. spectabilis, E. herbacea and E. explanata growing together with Geodorum. Ofcourse Geodorum you can make out from the curved stalk, but rest cant be differentiated so easily unless you have already seen the flower. But its all about opinion. Some say its half glass empty, others say its half glass full.
