摘要
Disa cochlearis Johnson and Liltved, anew orchid species from the Elandsberg mountains in the semi-arid Karoo region is described. The plants occur in a dry habitat which supports few orchid species. The new taxon is not closely allied to any other known species of Disa, but is tentatively placed within Disa Section Amphigena on the grounds of its having similar vegetative morphology.
