}}

Pterostylis concava, commonly known as the pouched greenhood[3] or cupped banded greenhood,[4] is a plant in the orchid family Orchidaceae and is endemic to the south-west of Western Australia. The plants either have a rosette of leaves in the years when not flowering or stem leaves on a flowering spike. When flowering, it has up to ten or more flowers which are dark reddish-brown, sometimes green and white with deeply cupped lateral sepals. It is an uncommon orchid, mostly found between Bindoon and Mount Barker.

Description

Pterostylis concava, is a terrestrial, perennial, deciduous, herb with an underground tuber. Non-flowering plants have a rosette of between four and eight leaves, each leaf {{convert|6-30|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} long and {{convert|5-15|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} wide on a stem {{convert|10-15|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} tall. When flowering, there are ten or more dark reddish-brown, green or green and white flowers borne on a flowering spike {{convert|100-450|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} high. The flowering spike has between three and nine stem leaves which are {{convert|14-40|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} long and {{convert|4-7|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} wide. The flowers are {{convert|20-25|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} long, {{convert|12-15|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} wide. The dorsal sepal and petals form a hood called the "galea" over the column. The lateral sepals turn downwards, are deeply dished, {{convert|17-20|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} long, {{convert|18-22|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} wide and joined at their base. The labellum is dark brown, hairy and insect-like, about {{convert|7|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} long, {{convert|4|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} wide and flicks upwards when touched. Flowering occurs from June to early September.[1][2][3]

Taxonomy and naming

Pterostylis concava was first formally described in 1989 by David Jones and Mark Clements and the description was published in Australian Orchid Research from a specimen collected between Boyup Brook and Cranbrook.[4] The specific epithet (concava) is a Latin word meaning "hollowed" or "arched inward"[5] referring to the dished lateral sepals.[2]

Distribution and habitat

The pouched greenhood grows in woodland and forest, usually in moist, sheltered locations between Bindoon and Mount Barker with a disjunct population east of Esperance.[1][2][3] It occurs in the Avon Wheatbelt, Esperance Plains, Jarrah Forest, Swan Coastal Plain and Warren biogeographic regions.[6]

Conservation

Pterostylis concava is classified as "not threatened" by the Government of Western Australia Department of Parks and Wildlife.[6]
