Caladenia alpina, commonly known as the mountain caladenia,[1] is a species of plant in the orchid family Orchidaceae and is native to subalpine areas of south-eastern Australia and to New Zealand. It has a single fleshy leaf and a thin wiry flowering spike bearing two white flowers with red bars on the labellum. In New Zealand this orchid is sometimes known as Caladenia lyallii.

Description

Caladenia alpina is a terrestrial, perennial, deciduous, herb with an underground tuber and a single, sparsely hairy, lance-shaped leaf, Шаблон:Convert long and Шаблон:Convert wide. The leaf is thick and fleshy and green to dark reddish-green.[1][2][3]

One to three flowers, usually two, are borne on a spike up to Шаблон:Convert high and are about Шаблон:Convert in diameter. The dorsal sepal is a broad egg shape Шаблон:Convert wide and curves forward to form a hood over the column. The petals and lateral sepals are broad, Шаблон:Convert long and are white and glabrous on the front and pinkish red to maroon with glandular hairs on the back. The labellum is about Шаблон:Convert long when flattened, white with dark red to purple spots and lines with a wavy margin, a few short teeth and a pointed tip. There are four well-spaced rows of calli on the surface of the labellum. The calli are club-shaped, yellow or whitish becoming darker and shorter towards the tip of the labellum. The column is about Шаблон:Convert long with broad wings and has red spots or streaks.[1][2][3]

Taxonomy and naming

Caladenia alpina was first formally described by Richard Sanders Rogers in 1927 and the description was published in Transactions and Proceedings of the Royal Society of South Australia.[4][5] Rogers described the species from specimens collected on Mount Bogong and Mount Hotham in Victoria and from Mount Kosciuszko in New South Wales. The specific epithet (alpina) is a Latin word meaning "of high mountains".[6]

In New Zealand the species is known as Caladenia lyallii although "some orchidologists" suggest that both C. lyallii and C. alpina occur in that country. The epithet (lyallii) honours the Scottish botanist David Lyall, who was a friend of Joseph Hooker.[3] Caladenia alpina is regarded as a synonym of Caladenia lyallii by the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew.[7] Caladenia lyallii was first formally described by Joseph Dalton Hooker in Flora Novae-Zelandiae.[8][9]

Distribution and habitat

Alpine caladenia usually grows in subalpine zones above Шаблон:Convert in forest, Snow Gum woodland and herbfields or near ponds and bogs. In New South Wales it occurs on the Southern Tablelands south of the Brindabella Range and in Victoria on the Great Dividing Range and Grampians. In New Zealand, Caladenia lyallii occurs on both the North and South Islands as well as on Stewart Island.[1][2][3]
