}} Pterostylis pratensis, commonly known as the Liawenee greenhood, is a plant in the orchid family Orchidaceae and is endemic to Tasmania. Both flowering and non-flowering plants have a rosette of leaves lying flat on the ground. Flowering plants have up to twelve crowded white flowers with prominent green stripes. This greenhood only grows in low, exposed subalpine tussock grassland. DescriptionPterostylis pratensis, is a terrestrial, perennial, deciduous, herb with an underground tuber. It has a rosette of between four and eight, egg-shaped leaves, each leaf {{convert|25-35|mm|in|sigfig=2|abbr=on}} long and {{convert|14-22|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} wide lying flat on the ground. Between two and twelve crowded flowers are borne on a flowering spike {{convert|70-150|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} high with two to six stem leaves wrapped around it. The flowers are white with prominent green stripes and {{convert|7-9|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} long and about {{convert|5|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} wide. The dorsal sepal and petals are joined to form a hood called the "galea" over the column. The dorsal sepal is gently curved but suddenly curves downward near the tip and is about the same length as the petals. The lateral sepals turn downwards and are about {{convert|7|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} long, {{convert|5|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} wide, cupped with short tips about {{convert|3|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} apart from each other. The labellum is {{convert|2-3|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} long, about {{convert|2|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} wide and whitish-green with a dark green, beak-like appendage. Flowering occurs from November to December.[2][3][4][5]Taxonomy and namingPterostylis pratensis was first formally described in 1998 by David Jones from a specimen collected near Great Lake and the description was published in Australian Orchid Research.[6] The specific epithet (pratensis) is a Latin word meaning "found in meadows"[7] referring to the highland habitat of this greenhood.[2]Distribution and habitatLiawenee greenhood grows in Poa labillardierei tussock grassland at altitudes of {{convert|850-1100|m|ft|sigfig=2|abbr=on}} in exposed situations on the Central Plateau.[3][4][5] ConservationPterostylis pratensis is listed as "vulnerable" under the Australian Government Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 and the Tasmanian Government Threatened Species Protection Act 1995. There are eleven known populations of the species, only two of which are in conservation reserves. Determining population size is difficult but was estimated in 2008 to be at least 600. Threats to the species include grazing, cultivation and the use of fertilisers.[4][5]References1. ^{{WCSP | 170627 | Pterostylis pratensis }} {{Taxonbar|from=Q15494017}}2. ^1 {{cite journal|last1=Jones|first1=David L.|title=A taxonomic review of Pterostylis R.Br. in Tasmania|journal=Australian Orchid Research|date=1998|volume=3|pages=149–150}} 3. ^1 {{cite book|last1=Jones|first1=David L.|title=A complete guide to native orchids of Australia including the island territories|date=2006|publisher=New Holland|location=Frenchs Forest, N.S.W.|isbn=978-1877069123|page=321}} 4. ^1 2 {{cite web|title=Approved conservation advice for Pterostylis pratensis (Liawenee greenhood)|url=http://www.environment.gov.au/biodiversity/threatened/species/pubs/66896-conservation-advice.pdf|publisher=Australian Government Department of the Environment|accessdate=6 July 2017}} 5. ^1 2 {{cite web|title=Threatened species listing statement - Liawenee greenhood (Pterostylis pratensis)|url=http://dpipwe.tas.gov.au/Documents/Pterostylis-pratensis-listing-statement.pdf|publisher=Tasmanian Government Department of Primary Industries, Parks, Water and Environment|accessdate=6 July 2017}} 6. ^1 {{cite web|title=Pterostylis pratensis|url=https://id.biodiversity.org.au/instance/apni/573774|publisher=APNI|accessdate=6 July 2017}} 7. ^{{cite book|last1=Brown|first1=Roland Wilbur|title=The Composition of Scientific Words|date=1956|publisher=Smithsonian Institution Press|location=Washington, D.C.|page = 326}} 4 : Pterostylis|Endemic orchids of Australia|Orchids of Tasmania|Plants described in 1998 |
