Corunastylis leptochila is a small terrestrial orchid endemic to Victoria. It has a single thin leaf fused to the flowering stem and up to twenty small reddish-brown to dark purplish flowers. It is known from one population with only six plants in forest near a swamp.

Description

Corunastylis leptochila is a terrestrial, perennial, deciduous, herb with an underground tuber and a single thin leaf {{convert|100-150|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} long. Between five and twenty reddish-brown to dark purplish flowers are densely crowded along a flowering stem {{convert|8-15|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} tall. The flowers lean downward and are {{convert|4-5|mm|in|sigfig=2|abbr=on}} wide. The flowers and are inverted so that the labellum is above the column rather than below it. The dorsal sepal is egg-shaped, {{convert|2-2.5|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} long and about {{convert|1.5|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} wide. The lateral sepals are linear to lance-shaped, {{convert|3.5-4.5|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} long, {{convert|1|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} wide with a small white gland on the tip. The petals are egg-shaped, about {{convert|2.5|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} long and {{convert|1|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} wide and also have a small gland on the tip. The labellum is narrow elliptic to narrow oblong, about {{convert|2|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} long and {{convert|1|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} wide. There is an oblong callus in the centre of the labellum and extending nearly to its tip. Flowering occurs in November and December.[1]

Taxonomy and naming

Corunastylis leptochila was first formally described in 2017 by David Jones from a specimen collected near Lavers Hill and the description was published in Australian Orchid Research.[2] The specific epithet (leptochila) is derived from the Ancient Greek words leptos meaning "fine" or "small"[3]{{rp|488}} and cheilos meaning "lip" or "rim".[3]{{rp|486}}

Distribution and habitat

Corunastylis leptochila grows in forest near a swamp near Lavers Hill where only six plants are known.[1]
