The Dockrillia teretifolia were all different, had been mounted differently and treated differently, one with red leaves had probably been kept in bright sunshine; nevertheless all were very floriferous. The mild, dry and sunny conditions Adelaide suffered in July was the probable reason for early flowering of terrestrials and epiphytes alike. PLANT COMMENTARIES-G. Edwards & G.

Mark is originally from Adelaide. He gave an overview of his work, explaining how it has helped to sort out the taxonomy of Australian orchids at all levels from species up to actual tribe. This was probably the most interesting orchid talk 1 have ever attended as it answered so many questions at so many levels. Mark began with his work on symbiotic flasking of orchid seed, moved on to his work at Kew in 1984 and visits to all the great European herbaria. We then accompanied Mark (via slides) on trips to New Caledonia and New Guinea. From there we went via electron microscope into orchid seed embryos, electrophoresis, DNA sampling. From there we skipped over to Qld and the Cooktown orchids. Absolutely fascinating. Anyone listening to Mark would have little trouble accepting the taxonomic outcomes of his work. This includes the reasons why Pterostylis is being divided into several genera and why the Cooktown orchid in general has become at least 5 species... ie D. bigibbum itself from the Cooktown area up to the Iron Range, D. lithacola from further south, D. phalaeonopsis from further north and D. striaenopsis. We will even have to accept that almost none of the Aussie dendrobiums actually belong to Dendrobium sensu stricto and that perhaps none of our bulbophyllums will stay in the genus Bulbophyllum. It was good to see Mark's family present including his parents who are well known conservation activists from a time before such issues were popular.

Please contact Thelma Bridle (83844174) for more details 64 FIELD TRIP REPORT: PTEROSTYLIS SMARAGDINA SPECIAL JULY 24 This excursion to Scott Creek CP provided a feast of Winter orchids. We met President Tom Hand of the local Friends group at the main Park gate on Frith Road. There was exciting promise of things to come as within a metre of the gate were Diuris pardina and Thelymitra nuda in bud. A few metres further down the track were large plants of T. grandifl ora. This track, the Quarry track leads into the aptly named Greenhood Track where no less than 12 species of greenhood were found! Not surprisingly the first of these was our quarry P. smaragdina growing with P. sanguinea, P. nutans and P. aff. nana all in full flower. The further we went the taller the P. smaragdina became! In fact this species is our tallest greenhood, reaching to l metre tall. (see Thelma's amusing illustration...." I can't see any greenhoods here!"). A few steps off the track we found an old mine tunnel (silver was mined here) and around it lots of Acianthus pusillus in late flower and A. caudatus just beginning to bloom. Some species like Genoplesium aff. rufum and Eriochilus sp. were long finished. We continued on to some of the best woodland vegetation in the park. Leaves of some 20 species were seen.... Acianthus, Cyrtostylis, Corybas, Caladenia (5 species), Diuris, Glossodia, Leptoceras, Microtis, Orthoceras, Prasophyllum, Pterostylis, and Thelymitra (6 species). Greenhood Gully has the largest and densest colonies of Corybas dilatatus (diernenicus) in South Australia so we walked around the edge of these and not through them .... Amongst the short, ruby-red Corybas was a single flower of Pterostylis pedunculata flowering early as a result perhaps of herbicide used to kill blackberries here. We added a new record for the Park as a colony of Corybas x miscellus was located nearby. One of the most spectacular colonies of Pterostylis robusta we had ever seen was right by the track; some 50 plants in flower. Close by were dozens of P. plumosa in early bud and a rosette of Pterostylis aciculiformis. At this point we were aware of the weather closing in and began to hurry but a call of 'here's a different one' had us rushing to look at Pterostylis aff.

  • Australian Orchid Name Index (16/2/2007)
    AUSTRALIAN ORCHID NAME INDEX (16/2/2007) by Mark A. Clements and David L. Jones Centre for Plant Biodiversity Research/Australian National Herbarium GPO Box 1600 Canberra ACT 2601 Australia Corresponding author: [email protected] INTRODUCTION The Australian Orchid Name Index (AONI) provides the currently accepted scientific names, together with their synonyms, of all Australian orchids including those in external territories. The appropriate scientific name for each orchid taxon is based on data published in the scientific or historical literature, and/or from study of the relevant type specimens or illustrations and study of taxa as herbarium specimens, in the field or in the living state. Structure of the index: Genera and species are listed alphabetically. Accepted names for taxa are in bold, followed by the author(s), place and date of publication, details of the type(s), including where it is held and assessment of its status. The institution(s) where type specimen(s) are housed are recorded using the international codes for Herbaria (Appendix 1) as listed in Holmgren et al’s Index Herbariorum (1981) continuously updated, see [http://sciweb.nybg.org/science2/IndexHerbariorum.asp]. Citation of authors follows Brummit & Powell (1992) Authors of Plant Names; for book abbreviations, the standard is Taxonomic Literature, 2nd edn. (Stafleu & Cowan 1976-88; supplements, 1992-2000); and periodicals are abbreviated according to B-P- H/S (Bridson, 1992) [http://www.ipni.org/index.html].
