Diuris filifolia, commonly known as the cat's face orchid,[3] is a species of orchid which is endemic to the south-west of Western Australia. It is one of the rarest Diuris in Western Australia, sometimes flowering in large numbers but only after hot summer fires.

Description

Diuris filifolia is a tuberous, perennial herb, growing to a height of {{convert|200-450|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} with between six and thirteen leaves, each {{convert|50-120|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} long and {{convert|1-3|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} wide. There are between two and seven pale yellow flowers with reddish-brown markings and {{convert|20-25|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} long, about {{convert|20|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} wide. The dorsal sepal is more or less erect, tapers towards the tip, {{convert|10-13|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} long, {{convert|7-8|mm|in|sigfig=2|abbr=on}} wide. The lateral sepals are {{convert|12-16|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} long, {{convert|4-5|mm|in|sigfig=2|abbr=on}} wide and turned downwards and forwards. The petals are erect or curved backwards with the blade {{convert|9-12|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} long and {{convert|6-8|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} wide on a brown stalk {{convert|3-5|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} long. The labellum has three lobes, the centre lobe {{convert|8-10|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} long and {{convert|7-9|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} wide and the side lobes {{convert|3.5-5|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} long and about {{convert|4|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} wide. There are two callus ridges {{convert|4-6|mm|in|sigfig=2|abbr=on}} long in the mid-line of the labellum. Flowering occurs from October to November and is enhanced by a hot fire the previous summer.[2][3][4]

Taxonomy and naming

Diuris filifolia was first formally described in 1840 by John Lindley and the description was published in A Sketch of the Vegetation of the Swan River Colony as an appendix to Edwards's Botanical Register.[5][6] The specific epithet (filifolia) is derived from the Latin words filum meaning "thread"[7]{{rp|797}} and folium meaning "a leaf",[7]{{rp|466}} referring to the thin leaves at the base of the flowering stem of this species.[3]

Distribution and habitat

The cat's face orchid grows in sandy soil on the edge of winter-wet areas between York and Mount Barker in the Swan Coastal Plain biogeographic region. It is a rare Diuris which sometimes flowers in large numbers but only after hot fires the previous summer.[3][4]

Conservation

Diuris filifolia is classified as "not threatened" by the Western Australian Government Department of Parks and Wildlife.[8]
