What plant is this? : Attachments (1). 8 posts by 5 authors. I think this plant was posted some time ago. Request identification please? Seen in Sanjay Gandhi National Park (SGNP) Mumbai. It was a bit inaccessible so I couldn't take close-ups. Thanks. Looks like Remusatia vivipara of Araceae.
to me there are two plants, one with inflorescense is an Orchid and another with boad leaves is some colocasia sp. please confirm if it is only one plant Thanks ... for the correction. Yes, you are right. I mistook the inflorescence for bulbils seen in Remusatia. Didn't observe carefully, sorry & thanks. Usually Remusatia grows on trunk of old mango trees that is why it's Marathi name is Rukhalu (Rukh means tree and alu for colocasia ) Thanks ..., for the etymology. Yes u r right, Remusatia generally grows as an epiphytic. However it is also found growing on rocks and on forest floors occasionally There is an orchid in middle, Peristylus plantagineus Oops! I have goofed up as I seem to have mixed up two species. Thank you, Gentlemen, which I take as a gentle and cautious reminder to take more care when photographing flora that needs identification. ID request- 18082013-PKA1 : Attachments (5). 5 posts by 4 authors. I had spotted this small terrestrial Orchid plant in forest near Patewadi. Leaves were clustered very close to flower spike (almost at the middle of the stem). Flower spike was about 10 cm. Family: Orchidaceae Location: near Patewadi (on the way Panhalgad- Vishalgad Trek route). Date/Time: 16-08-2013 / 02:00PM This should be Peristylus lawii. Sending one of my photographs of the same. it is Peristylus plantagineus

Spur shorter than sepals; leaves clustered about the middle of stem; petals white; lip short, scarcely 3 lobed is P. plantagineus. Yes this is Peristylus plantagineus. P. goodyeroides will have very prominent lobes on labellum.

I really like the insect pics. I have seen so many insects on Peristylus but never seen them carrying or disturbing pollinia. I imagine what a mosquito was looking for!!! Did you see them carrying pollinia? Thanks a lot for sharing. Thanks ... I couldnt figure out what the mosquito was looking for. These images might give some Idea. I could see a lot of such mosquitos visiting the flowers...! References:
