Nervilia orchid

Nervilia sp

Description:

terrestrial orchid with one leaf per plant

Habitat:

miombo woodlands, 1000m

Notes:

I've spotted a few species of Nervilia in Africa but I have yet to spot one in flower. I can easily recognize the leaves when I see them but many are hard to ID to species when not in flower. I spotted this on the way to Fort Mangochi.
