Looks like Liparis deflexa..


Not possible to confirm with these pics but as … says, obviously a Liparis (I can see a long dry column over the fruit). Could also be a Liparis odorata (I see roundish corms). Would be good to know if it was growing in direct sun or in deep shade inside the forest.


My specimen (the ground orchid) grows in deep shade inside the forest.
