Hemipilia physoceras is a species of flowering plant in the family Orchidaceae, native to south-central China (north-western and western Sichuan).[1]

Taxonomy

[edit]

The species was first described in 1924 by Rudolf Schlechter, as Amitostigma physoceras.[2] A molecular phylogenetic study in 2014 found that species of Amitostigma, Neottianthe and Ponerorchis were mixed together in a single clade, making none of the three genera monophyletic as then circumscribed. Amitostigma and Neottianthe were subsumed into Ponerorchis, with this species then becoming Ponerorchis physoceras.[3] The genus Ponerorchis has since been synonymized with the genus Hemipilia, resulting in the present name.
