Caladenia bicalliata subsp. cleistogama, commonly known as the shy limestone spider orchid or sandhill spider orchid, is a plant in the orchid family Orchidaceae and is native to the south-west of Western Australia. It has a single erect, hairy leaf and one or two cream-coloured flowers which are smaller than those in subspecies bacalliata .

Description

Caladenia bicalliata subsp. cleistogama is a terrestrial, perennial, deciduous, herb with an underground tuber and which occurs singly or in small clumps. It has a single erect, very hairy, linear to lance-shaped leaf, {{convert|10-20|cm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} long and {{convert|2-5|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} wide. The inflorescence is a raceme, {{convert|10-20|cm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} high with one or two flowers, each flower about {{convert|25|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} long and {{convert|10|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} wide. The dorsal sepal abruptly narrows about one-third of its length from the base. The lateral sepals and petals are much shorter than those of subspecies bicalliata, lack reddish-brown tips and are a paler greenish-cream colour. The labellum is white with red spots and a serrated edge and has two rows of white-tipped calli along its centre. Flowering occurs from August to early September, however the flowers only rarely open fully.[1][2]

Taxonomy and naming

Caladenia bicalliata was first formally described by Richard Rogers in 1909.[3] In 2001 Stephen Hopper and Andrew Brown described two subspecies, including subspecies cleistogama and the description of the two subspecies was published in Nuytsia.[4] The subspecies epithet ("cleistogamous") is derived from the Ancient Greek words kleistos meaning "shut" or "closed"[5]{{rp|211}} and gamos meaning "gamete"[5]{{rp|514}} referring to the fact that the flowers rarely open.[1]

Distribution and habitat

Shy limestone spider orchid occurs in a narrow coastal strip, growing on consolidated sand dunes between William Bay National Park and Cape Arid National Park in the Esperance Plains and Warren biogeographic regions.[6][7]

Conservation

Caladenia bicalliata subsp. cleistogama is classified as "not threatened" by the Western Australian Government Department of Parks and Wildlife.[6]
