Malaxis corymbosa (Huachuca Adder's-mouth orchid, Madrean 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 corymbosa or Huachuca Adder's-mouth orchid also known as Madrean Adder's-mouth orchid, in the Huachuca 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.
