Description

Diuris segregata is a tuberous, perennial herb with between two and six narrowly linear to thread-like leaves Шаблон:Cvt long and Шаблон:Cvt wide. Up to three yellow flowers, usually with dark red markings, Шаблон:Cvt long and Шаблон:Cvt wide are borne on a flowering stem Шаблон:Cvt tall. The dorsal sepal is narrowly egg-shaped to narrowly elliptic, Шаблон:Cvt long and Шаблон:Cvt wide. The lateral sepals are parallel or crossed near the tip, Шаблон:Cvt long, Шаблон:Cvt wide. The petals are paddle-shaped, the blade elliptic to egg-shaped or more or less round, Шаблон:Cvt long and Шаблон:Cvt wide on a reddish-brown stalk Шаблон:Cvt long. The labellum is Шаблон:Cvt long with three lobes - the centre lobe broadly wedge-shaped, Шаблон:Cvt long and wide. The side lobes are spread widely apart and are oblong, Шаблон:Cvt long and wide. There are two smooth calli ridges outlined with red near the base of the labellum. Flowering occurs in early August and September.[2][3][4]

Taxonomy and naming

Diuris segregata was first formally described in 2013 by David Jones and Christopher J. French in Australian Orchid Review, from a specimen collected by French near Yallabatharra in 2004.[5] The specific epithet (segregata) means "separate", or "set apart", referring to its differences from D. septentrionalis, that grows in a similar area.[3]

Distribution and habitat

Northampton bee orchid grows in winter-wet areas, near the edges of temporary lakes and around rocks between Eneabba and Kalbarri in the Avon Wheatbelt, Geraldton Sandplains and Swan Coastal Plain bioregions of south-western Western Australia.[1][2][3]

Conservation status

Diuris segragata is listed as "not threatened" by the Western Australian Government Department of Biodiversity, Conservation and Attractions.[1]
