| '''Amitostigma''' ] 1919, is a genus in the orchid family (]), subfamily Orchidoideae, tribe Orchideae, subtribe Orchidinae, alliance Orchis | |||
| It is an exclusively Asian genus of 27 orchids, growing in the alpine habitats of east Asia, ], eastern ], ], and ] to ], of which 22 grow species in China. | |||
| These are dwarf ] orchids, including some ] species. The globose or ovoid ]s (1-1,5 cm) of these autotrophic plants are fleshy and not lobed, with several slender ]s. New shoots grow each tuber. | |||
| The ] is usually erect, with 1 (or rarely 2 or 3) basal or cauline (= belonging to the stem) leaves. The length of the stem can vary between 5 and 45 cm. | |||
| The green ] blade is not articulate and can have an oblong, lanceolate, elliptic, or ovate form, even within the same species (see ''A. lepidum''). The leaves appear at the time of expansion of the flower (= anthesis). | |||
| The terminal ] is racemose, seldom subcapitate. The floral ]s are often lanceolate. The cylindrical to fusiform ] is resupinate (= turned upside down). | |||
| Each inflorescence shows many (rarely 1 or 2) flowers. These are also resupinate and usually twisted to one side. | |||
| The ]s are completely separate from each other, with an oblong to ovate appearance, and usually 1-veined. The erect ]s are straight, often slightly broader than the sepals. | |||
| The 3- or 4-lobed ] is usually longer and broader than the petals and sepals, spurred at the base. The mid-lobe is oblong, square, or ovate. The margin of the lip is often slightly undulate. | |||
| They have a characteristic short ]. The erect ]s are cohesive with the column through its broad base or back.. They have two parallel locules with farinaceous, sectile ]. The small ] is beak-shaped, attached with its folded end to the viscidium. The two protuding ]s are slightly club-shaped | |||
| The ] is suberect. | |||
| The color may vary within the same species : ''Amitostigma lepidum'' may show a purple lip with white margins, or a white lip with purple dots or a totally white lip. Even the leaves may vary from lanceolate to ovate within the same species. | |||
| After flowering, the leaves turn yellow color and die off.The plants then starts its summer dormancy for several months. This cycle is well adapted to a climate which is hot and dry in summer. | |||
