genus NEOTINEA includes some Orchis species |
| Neotinea, from | ||||
| A genus closely related to Orchis that until recently was generally accepted to have only a single species found in Europe (N.maculata). However genetic studies now suggest a number of former Orchis species should now be included here even though morphologically they do not appear similar. Delforge has gone the other way and actually included all species in Orchis!! For now we have gone with genetics! | ||||
