Habenaria vatia, commonly known as the curved rein orchid,[2] is a species of orchid that is endemic Queensland where it is only known from a small number of islands. It has between three and five leaves at its base and up to twenty five small white flowers with a relatively long green green and white nectary spur.

Description

Habenaria vatia is a tuberous, perennial herb with between three and five upright leaves, {{convert|60-100|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} long and {{convert|10-18|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} wide. Between fifteen and twenty five white flowers, {{convert|10-12|mm|in|sigfig=2|abbr=on}} long and {{convert|15-17|mm|in|sigfig=2|abbr=on}} wide are borne on a flowering stem {{convert|300-500|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} tall. The dorsal sepal is about {{convert|4|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} long, {{convert|3|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} wide and with the petals, forms a hood over the column. The lateral sepals are about {{convert|5|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} long, {{convert|2|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} wide and spread apart from each other and the petals are a similar size to the sepals. The labellum is shaped like a trident and has three lobes about {{convert|8|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} long and {{convert|1.5|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} wide. The nectary spur is green with a white base, {{convert|12-14|mm|in|sigfig=2|abbr=on}} long and about {{convert|2|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} wide. Flowering occurs from December to January.[2]

Taxonomy and naming

Habenaria vatia was first formally described in 2002 by David Jones but the name was not validly published.[3] In 2015, Michael Mathieson validated the name and description.[4][5] The specific epithet (vatia) is a Latin word meaning "bent outward" or "bowlegged".[6]

Distribution and habitat

The curved rein orchid grows with grasses and low shrubs in woodland on Moa Island and other Torres Strait Islands.[2][5]

Conservation

Habenaria vatia is listed as "vulnerable" under the Queensland Nature Conservation Act 1992.[5]
