1100. Corallorhiza trifida Châtel.: Orchidaceae.

Summary: Corallorhiza trifida Châtel., illustrated here as Plate 1100, is a widely distributed orchid, occurring in temperate and subarctic regions of Eurasia and North America [Correction added on 14 August 2024, after first online publication: In Summary section, 'Plate 2000' has been corrected to 'Plate 1100'.]. It is an inconspicuous species that can be difficult to spot due to its lack of leaves and predominantly subterranean life history. Although it produces some chlorophyll, it is a mycoheterotroph dependent on its fungal associates for much of its nutrition, and it is difficult or impossible to cultivate. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
