Home Jokes and Science Science Directory Science Trivia ... Science Fair rojects Botany Encyclopedia Annual Plant Antheridium Biennial Plant Botany ... Weed Orchids Orchids (Orchidaceae family) are among the most diverse of the flowering plant families, with over 1000 described genera and 25,000 (some sources give 30,000) species, and perhaps another 60,000 hybrids and varieties produced by horticulturalists. The Kew checklist "World Checklist of Orchids" [1] (http://www.kew.org/data/monocots) gives about 24,000 accepted names. About 800 new species are added each year. Furthermore, the taxonomy of this family is in constant flux, as DNA studies give new information. This is one of the largest families of flowering plants and is truly the culmination of floral evolution. Orchids get their name from the Greek orchis, meaning 'testicle', from the appearance of subterranean tuberoids in some terrestrial species. The word 'orchis' was first used by Theophrastos (371/372 - 287/286 B.C.), in his book "De historia plantarum" (The natural history of plants). He was a student of Aristotle and is considered the father of botany and ecology. Orchids, in their natural habitat, are considered as threatened or endangered. They are therefore protected.

D isas... the "Pride of Table Mountain" Home About Us What's New? Photo Gallery ... E-mail Us Here Merkles Orchids Nashville, TN This is Disa Kewensis, a man-made hybrid of two species, Disa uniflora and Disa tripetaloides. The delicate beauty and uniqueness of these special orchids is why we have given them their own page on our website. Disa (pronounced DEE-za) is a genus of approximately 162 species of terrestrial orchids native to Africa. The mere handful of easily cultivated Disas we will discuss here, are native to southern Africa, and in particular, South Africa and the area of Table Mountain, which overlooks the city of Cape Town. The brilliant scarlet Disa uniflora is known as "The Pride of Table Mountain". In South Africa, the genus is pronounced "DYE-za," but either way, they are delightful plants. In nature, the

An Interactive Flora By Jeffrey R. Hapeman [LISTS OF TAXA] [KEYS TO TAXA] Where Am I? Welcome to Orchids of Wisconsin! This is an interactive flora of the native and naturalized orchids of Wisconsin. Right now you're at the front page of this site, which can be accessed through lists of the taxa or through keys . Choose your favorite method and click away! To the best of my knowledge, this is (and was) the first complete flora on the Web, and the first to use interactive hyper-keys. I feel that the HTML language has tremendous potential for interactive determination of plant specimens, and Orchids of Wisconsin is the first incarnation of that idea. PLEASE here Tell Me More! Species accounts include photos, typical taxonomic descriptive information, a description of similar species to aid in identification, habitat information, blooming dates, a section on pollination biology (if information is available), herbarium records, and a range map. Information was compiled from published literature (see References), detailed examinations of specimens in the University of Wisconsin-Madison herbarium, and my personal experience and observation of the species in the wild, both in Wisconsin and elsewhere. Enjoy your visit to Orchids of Wisconsin, and remember, here any purpose.

17. Arethusa Bulbosa L. and images....... http://www.botany.wisc.edu/Orchids/Arethusa.html

Arethusa bulbosa L. Dragon-mouth This monotypic genus is named after a beautiful Greek nymph, rather appropriate given the beauty of the flower. The specific epithet bulbosa is the Latin meaning "bulbed," in reference to the small pseudobulb of this species. Arethusa bulbosa is closely related to Eleorchis japonica of Japan; historically E. japonica had been treated as Arethusa japonica DESCRIPTION: Plant arising from a small, round corm rather loosely attached to the substrate in which is growing (typically Sphagnum ). One leaf , grass-like, 4-20 cm long and 3-12 mm wide, reduced or absent at flowering time, developing more fully later in the season. Flower typically one (rarely two) located at the terminus of a stalk ranging from 10-40 cm long, subtended by a bract 2-4 mm long and about 2 mm wide. Sepals oblanceolate, 2-4 cm long and 4-9 mm wide, bright magenta to pinkish white, rarely white; forming an erect hood or backing to the rest of the flower. Petals oblanceolate, 2-3 cm long and 3-8 mm wide, closely appressed to the column, colored as sepals. Labellum obovate, 20-25 mm long and 12-15 mm wide, whitish pink to white in the center with a suffusion of yellow and spotted with deep magenta, margin pink; center of the labellum bearing numerous yellowish hairs.

18. Calypso Bulbosa (L.) Oakes SIMILAR SPECIES I can think of no other orchid that could be confused Like several other orchids in Wisconsin, it has a deceptive pollination system. http://www.botany.wisc.edu/Orchids/Calypso.html

Calypso bulbosa (L.) Oakes Calypso, fairy slipper This monotypic genus is palearctic in distribution, and extends south to Arizona in the mountains of the western United States. The genus Calypso is named for the beautiful nymph in Homer's Odyssey who waylaid Ulysses on his return to Ithaca. The specific epithet bulbosa is the Latin meaning "bulbed," in reference to the small pseudobulb of this species. Photos courtesy of Emmet Judziewicz DESCRIPTION: Plant arising from a bulbous corm. Leaf ovate, solitary, basal, 2-6 cm long and 2-4.5 cm wide. The leaf arises in late summer and persists through winter, withering after the plant flowers. Flower solitary, pendent, terminating an 6-21 cm tall stem. Sepals lanceolate to lance-linear, 1-2 cm long and 2.5-5 mm wide, purplish-pink to purplish-white, rarely white. Petals similar to sepals, sepals and petals spreading above the labellum. Labellum saccate, oblong (often described as "slipper-shaped"), 1.5-2.5 cm long and 6-11 mm wide, with two small projections at the apex and an "apron" of tissue extending from the opening. Labellum whitish-pink, liberally streaked with madder purple, spotted with the same near the opening. The "apron" has a brush of yellow hairs near the opening to the labellum, and the projections of the labellum are often yellowish as well. The column is petaloid and overhangs the opening to the labellum. SIMILAR SPECIES: I can think of no other orchid that could be confused with
