Oeceoclades pandurata
Oeceoclades pandurata is a terrestrial and epiphytic orchid species in the genus "Oeceoclades" that is native to eastern Zimbabwe and Madagascar. It was first described by the British botanist Robert Allen Rolfe in 1891 as "Eulophia pandurata", then moved to the genus "Lissochilus" by Joseph Marie Henry Alfred Perrier de la Bâthie in 1941, and again moved to the genus "Eulophidium" by V.S. Summerhayes in 1957. It was finally transferred to the genus "Oeceoclades" in 1976 by Leslie Andrew Garay and Peter Taylor. Garay and Taylor noted that this species possesses lateral veins on the labellum that fringed  with small hairs. "Oeceoclades pandurata" is distinguishable from other species in the genus by the lateral lobes of the labellum, which are free and truncate (an abrupt termination). The type specimen was collected on trees near Fort Dauphin on Madagascar, now known as the city of Tôlanaro. The specific epithet "pandurata" refers to the fiddle-shaped labellum.
