Hi, Ray, Jim Watts is one of the main folks in leafless orchids. Here's some of his info - page 6: www.orchidsocietyaz.org/apr04nl.pdf The original article was in the March 2003 issue of "Orchids," if you have access to that. Here's a terrestrial, supposedly rare: Didymoplexis, small genus of brown, leafless orchids in tropical Asia and Africa; one species in dune forest near Mtuzini; rare (KwaZulu-Natal coast). http://www.plantzafrica.com/plantnop/orchids/genera.htm Another one, Gastrodia theana, supposedly rare: http://news.nationalgeographic.com/news/2007/09/photogalleries/Vietnam-pictures/photo3.html NE U.S. leafless orchid, from Hoosiers: www.hoosierorchid.com/article_snoneusa.pdf Page 4, last full paragraph. Scientific article about "... leafless Neotropical Angraecinae (Dendrophylax Rchb.f., Harrisella Fawc. & Rendle, Polyradicion Garay, and Campylocentrum Benth.)" http://www.journals.uchicago.edu/doi/abs/10.1086/344757 Microcoelia http://books.google.com/books?id=SAbKE68l9GIC&pg=PT309&lpg=PT309&dq=leafless+orchids&source=web&ots=wsb4JDuqaz&sig=C-ARJYm3HhaiD7_0VwSrj0yV7Xo&hl=en Aphyllorchis, from the land of Arthur - http://anbg.gov.au/cpbr/cd-keys/orchidkey/html/genera/Aphyllorchis.htm More links for Aphyllorchis: http://forum.terrorchid.org/viewtopic.php?t=617 From Jay's for Aphyllorchis - scroll down: http://www.orchidspecies.com/indexanc.htm Also: http://forum.terrorchid.org/viewtopic.php?t=617 "Potato orchids" (leafless) in New Zealand: http://www.nativeorchids.co.nz/index_1024.htm Plus check out these on the same site: http://www.nativeorchids.co.nz/index_1024.htm New species found in Vietnam's Green Corridor: Gastrodia theana. Maybe they'll be available one day: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/earth/main.jhtml?xml=/earth/2007/09/26/eaviet126.xml Lecanorchis vietnamica is mentioned in the next paragraph. Another from Arthur Land, Praecoxanthus aphyllus: http://florabase.dec.wa.gov.au/browse/photo/15424 Well, I do "go on," as we say in the South. Probably few of these are available to the hobbyist, but the search was fun. Whitecat8 Here is a link that might be useful: Didymoplexis
