Context: Pterostylis perculta, commonly known as the ruddy hood is a plant in the orchid family Orchidaceae and is endemic to the south-west of Western Australia.  Both flowering and non-flowering plants have a relatively large rosette of leaves and flowering plants have up to five reddish-brown and white flowers with relatively short tips on the sepals. Caladenia longicauda" subsp.  "rigidula, commonly known as the rigid white spider orchid or island white spider orchid, is a plant in the orchid family Orchidaceae and is endemic to the south-west of Western Australia.

It is not closely related to the slightly larger wild water buffalo of Asia and its ancestry remains unclear.  "Syncerus caffer caffer", the Cape buffalo, is the typical subspecies, and the largest one, found in South and East Africa.  "S. c. nanus" (African forest buffalo) is the smallest subspecies, common in forest areas of Central and West Africa, while "S. c. brachyceros" is in West Africa and "S. c. aequinoctialis" is in the savannas of East Africa.  The adult buffalo's horns are its characteristic feature; they have fused bases, forming a continuous bone shield across the top of the head referred to as a "boss".  They are widely regarded as very dangerous animals, as they gore and kill over 200 people every year. Pterostylis spathulata, commonly known as the spoon-lipped rufous greenhood or Moora rustyhood is a plant in the orchid family Orchidaceae and is endemic to the south-west of Western Australia.  Both flowering and non-flowering plants have a relatively large rosette of leaves.  Flowering plants also have up to ten or more white and green or brown flowers with fine, upturned tips on the lateral sepals and a spoon-shaped, insect-like labellum. Brachycorythis kalbreyeri is a species of flowering plant in the Orchidaceae family.  It is endemic to Equatorial Africa and was first discovered on Mount Cameroon by Guillermo Kalbreyer.  It was subsequently named after Kalbreyer by Heinrich Gustav Reichenbach.  The species is unique from others in its genus due to its semi-epiphytic growth habit.  Most species in the genus "Brachycorythis" are terrestrial.  "Brachycorythis kalbreyeri", however, can be found growing on trees near streams, on fallen logs, or mossy tree branches.  During the dry season, the species loses its leaves.  When the wet season returns the species sends out new growth and eventually flowers.  The flowers are 5 cm across and the species can produce up to about 15 flowers.  The sepals of the flower are white and the petals have a purplish color over a white background.  The lip shares this coloration except that towards the column the lip changes to a bright shade of yellow.  The flowers produce a spicy scent. Peristeria is a genus of plants belonging to the family Orchidaceae commonly called dove orchid or Holy Ghost orchid.

Pterostylis insectifera, commonly known as the insect-lipped rufous greenhood, or leaden rustyhood is a plant in the orchid family Orchidaceae and is endemic to the south-west of Western Australia.  Both flowering and non-flowering plants have a relatively large rosette of leaves.  Flowering plants have a similar rosette and up to eight or more flowers which have long, stiffly-held lateral sepals and a protruding, insect-like labellum. Scaphosepalum (from Greek "boatlike sepals") is a genus of plants belonging to the family Orchidaceae.
