Limodorum abortivumViolet Limodorum, Violet Bird's-nest OrchidSlo.: navadna splavka Dat.: May 24. 2012Lat.: 45.50186 Long.: 13.86389Code: Bot_621/2012/DSC_3677Habitat: Light mixed wood, among bushes, almost flat terrain, half-shade, dry place, probably limestone bedrock, exposed to direct rain, average precipitations 1.200-1.300 mm/year, average temperature 12-14 deg C, elevation 360 m (1.100 feet), submediterranean phytogeographical region. Substratum: soil.Place: East of village Popetre, next to the road toward village Sveti Anton and town Koper, Primorska, Slovenia EC Comment: This is another mycoheterotrophic orchid, which is associated primarily with genus Russula. But the plant is not completely without chlorophyll. Despite the presence of photosynthetic pigments, CO2 fixation seems to be insufficient to compensate for respiration in adult plants (Ref.:(2)). Therefore fungal symbionts are needed to survive. Interestingly, seedlings develop very slowly, spending up to ten years underground before flowering. Growing in a group of a few plants. This plant is not common in Slovenia, however, also not a very rare one. Duration of flowering is very short, which makes it difficult to find flowers 'in a good shape' for photography. Protected according to 'Uredba o zavarovanih prosto iveih rastlinskih vrstah' Ur.l. RS, t. 46/2004. Enlisted in the Slovene Red List of rare and endangered species, marked by "V" representing a vulnerable species.References:(1) Personal communication with Mr. Branko Dolinar,

Substratum: soil.Place: West Krk island, Adriatic Sea, south of village Brzac, near the road from village Milohni to Jana harbor, Kvarner bay, Croatia EC.Comment: Limodorum abortivum is an unusual and interesting plant. It is a mycoheterotrophic species. To survive it is obviously bound to fungi in spite to the fact that it has some chlorophyll in its stem and insignificant leaves. The species needs little description as it is highly distinctive and almost impossible to confuse with any other orchid, yet, it is quite 'difficult' in respect to taxonomy. Just see its synonymy next to its current name. Botanists have assigned and reassigned it to several different genera. The flowers can be of widely different color. Several varieties have been described, all of them probably without much significance to phylogeny.The plant is a Mediterranean floral element.

Laderas de la plana: Zaragoza. Aragn (Espaa) Con las flores cerradas.Familia: ORCHIDACEAEDistribucin: Presenta una distribucin mediterrnea: C y W de Europa, llegando hasta Irn y el Cacaso. En la Pennsula Ibrica se encuentra dispersa por la mayor parte del territorio, siendo rara en el NW, y apareciendo tambin en las Islas Baleares. En Aragn aparece en las tres provincias, sin embargo su presencia se centra prcticamente al Prepirineo, al arco formado entre el Moncayo y los Puertos de Beceite en el Sistema Ibrico y a las serranas de Albarracn y Gdar-Javalambre.Hbitat: Frecuentemente se encuentra en carrascales, o en sus etapas de sustitucin, aunque tambin se observa en otros bosques de quercneas, as como en pinares de carrasco y rodeno, matorrales, mrgenes de caminos, taludes, laderas pedregosas y, ocasionalmente, en pastizales.Preferencia edfica: Indiferente. Parecer tener preferencias calccolas, aunque muchas veces crecen en areniscas (flysch y rodeno) y tambin en substratos silceos.Rango altitudinal: 40- 1400 ( 1850 ) m Floracin: ( Marzo ) Abril - Julio ( Agosto )Forma Biolgica: Gefito rizomatosoExtractado del Atlas de la Flora de Aragn (Herbario de Jaca)
