No idea if this is Caladenia major or Glossodia major. Look exactly the same to me. #waxliporchid #caladeniamajor #glossodiamajor #groundorchid #surfcoast #spring #australia

Number of flowers (a) and fruiting success (b) for Diuris pardina and Glossodia major in a set of 18 systematically surveyed 30 m × 30 m plots (labelled A through to R) in Spring Gully Conservation Park, South Australia.

To maintain recruitment in #OrchidPopulations in an ecosystem setting, Irene Martín-Forés et al. studied #FruitingSuccess in two endemic Australian species, #DiurisPardina and #GlossodiaMajor, in relation to surrounding #FloralResources.
