Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Lesser Butterfly-orchid (Platanthera bifolia) This species of orchid can be distinguished from the otherwise very similar Greater Butterfly-orchid (P. chlorantha) by the two little pollen-bearing rods ("pollinia") that flank the opening of each flower. In the Lesser, shown here, they are close together and parallel; in the Greater, they are much further apart, and diverge. This flower was found growing on orchid-rich moorland.
