Dendrobium adae, commonly known as the slender cane orchid,[2] is an epiphytic, sometimes lithophytic orchid in the family Orchidaceae. It has cylindrical pseudobulbs, up to four dark green leaves and up to six white or greenish to apricot-coloured flowers. It grows in tropical North Queensland, Australia.

Description

Dendrobium adae is an ephiphytic or lithophytic herb that has wiry, cylinder-shaped pseudobulbs {{convert|200-600|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} long and {{convert|4-8|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} wide and between two and four dark green leaves {{convert|40-80|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} long and {{convert|15-25|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} wide. The flowering stem is {{convert|10-40|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} long and bears up to six resupinate white or greenish to apricot-coloured flowers {{convert|20-35|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} long and {{convert|20-30|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} wide. The dorsal sepal is erect, oblong, {{convert|12-17|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} long and {{convert|4-5|mm|in|sigfig=2|abbr=on}} wide. The lateral sepals are a curved triangular shape, {{convert|10-15|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} long and about {{convert|5|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} wide. The petals are lance-shaped, curved inwards and slightly shorter and narrower than the lateral sepals. The labellum is white with reddish markings, about {{convert|9|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} long and {{convert|5|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} wide with short hairs and three lobes. The side lobes curve upwards and the middle lobe has a ridge along its midline. Flowering occurs between July and October.[2][3]

Taxonomy and naming

Dendrobium adae was first formally described in 1884 by Frederick Manson Bailey from a specimen collected near Herberton and the description was published in the Proceedings of the Royal Society of Queensland.[4][5] The specific epithet (adae) is "in honour of Mrs. J. W R. Stuart" who collected the type specimen.[5]

Distribution and habitat

The slender cane orchid grows in rainforest and sheltered open forest between the Mount Windsor National Park and the Paluma Range National Park.[2][3]
