Orchids in Vermont
I'm trying to learn the orchids (family Orchidaceae) in Vermont. Four of the six subfamilies recognized by iNaturalist have representation in Vermont as follows:
Subfamily | Genera | Taxa | Observations |
---|---|---|---|
Apostasioid Orchids (Apostasioideae) | 0 | 0 | 0 |
Slipper Orchids (Cypripedioideae) | 1 | 5 | 1,812 |
Lower Epidendroid Orchids (Epidendroideae) | 10 | 19 | 1,475 |
Orchidoid Orchids (Orchidoideae) | 5 | 29 | 1,924 |
Higher Epidendroid Orchids (Vandoideae) | 0 | 0 | 0 |
Pogonias and Vanilla Orchids (Vanilloideae) | 2 | 3 | 123 |
The subfamilies are documented in a visual table for convenience:
