Pelatantheria bicuspidata
Pelatantheria bicuspidata is a species of epiphytic or lithophytic orchid occurring in China and Thailand. This species closely resembles Pelatantheria ctenoglossum and Pelatantheria woonchengii. The specific epithet bicuspidata, derived from the Latin word bicuspidatus, meaning double pointed refers to the two pointed distal portion of the labellum. The stems are elongate, branched and bear elliptic-oblong, unequally bilobed, distichously arranged leaves. The flowers open widely and bear purple or red striations on petals and sepals.
