Title: Orchids on Kea ID'd by Jorun as Ophrys, Anacamptis and Neotinea species
Post by: Cali on April 12, 2013, 09:48:34 AM

A friend who lives on the island of Kea (Tzia) in the Aegean sent me photos of these orchids. She would like to know what they are. Please, Oron? Anyone?

Very nice photos from your friend Cali, especially the first one, which is stunning.

My guess is:
First (top): Ophrys tenthredinifera
2: Anacamptis (previously Orchis) papillionacea
3: Neotinea (syn. Orchis) lactea
4: Ophrys fusca
