Calochilus uliginosus, commonly known as the swamp beard orchid,[2] is a species of orchid endemic to Western Australia. It has a single dark green leaf with a reddish purple base and up to seven greenish to brownish flowers with red lines and a labellum with a reddish purple beard.

Description

Calochilus uliginosus is a terrestrial, perennial, deciduous, herb with an underground tuber and a single dark green, linear to lance-shaped leaf, {{convert|100-400|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} long and {{convert|5-12|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} wide with a reddish purple base and which is fully developed when the first flower opens. Up to seven greenish to brownish flowers with red stripes and blotches, {{convert|20-26|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} long and {{convert|10-12|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} wide are borne on a flowering stem {{convert|150-600|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} tall. The dorsal sepal is oblong to egg-shaped, {{convert|9-13|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} long and {{convert|5-7|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} wide and the lateral sepals are a similar length but narrower. The petals are {{convert|4-6|mm|in|sigfig=2|abbr=on}} long and about {{convert|3|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} wide. The labellum is flat, {{convert|14-18|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} long and {{convert|6-7|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} wide with short, reddish purple calli near its base. The middle section of the labellum has hairs up to {{convert|5|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} long and the tip has a glandular "tail" {{convert|2-4|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} long and about {{convert|1|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} wide. The column has two purple "eyes" joined by a red ridge. Flowering occurs from October to December.[2][3][4][5]

Taxonomy and naming

Calochilus uliginosus was first formally described in 2006 by David Jones and the description was published in Australian Orchid Research from a specimen collected near Albany.[6] The specific epithet (uliginosus) is derived from a Latin word meaning "marsh" or "swamp",[7] referring to the habitat preference of this species.[5]

Distribution and habitat

The swamp beard orchid grows in dense undergrowth in seasonal swamps between Gingin and Albany in the Jarrah Forest, Swan Coastal Plain and Warren biogeographic regions.[2][5][8]
