Malaxis soulei (Chiricahua Adder's-mouth orchid)

Malaxis soulei (Chiricahua Adder's-mouth orchid)
At this year's Native Orchid Conference 2016 symposium, we made several field trips to see orchids. We found this species of Malaxis, Malaxis soulei or Chiricahua Adder's-mouth orchid, in both the Santa Catalina Mountains and the Chirichaua Mountains of southern Arizona. There are numerous mountain ranges that form what is known as "sky islands" -- ecosystems separated from each other by desert, distance, and altitude.
