Epidendrum orchidiflorum é uma espécie terrestre, raramente epífita, sem pseudobulbos e de caule de crescimento contínuo, fino, ereto ou pendente com até 1 m de comprimento, portando folhas coriáceas com bainhas que envolvem o caule. As inflorescências que surgem no ápice do caule tem 5 cm de diâmetro. Flor com 2 cm de diâmetro e de consistência cerosa com labelo reniforme. Todos os seus segmentos são de cor amarelo ocre pintalgado levemente de púrpura. Vegeta em savanas e campinas inundáveis em altitudes de 100 a 1000 m nos estados do Amazonas, Pará e Roraima. Floresce no verão.

05DNA & barcoding1 specimens
A DNA barcode is a short, standardised stretch of genes that works like a fingerprint — enough to tell one species from another. Below is the molecular trace Epidendrum orchidiflorum has left across the world's sequence archives.

09Environmental DNA1 detections
Where the DNA of Epidendrum orchidiflorum was picked up in samples of water, soil or air — nobody saw the organism, only its DNA left behind. A trace is a clue that the species was near, not a confirmed sighting.

How strong is each trace?
DNA read depthRead counts were not reported for this species — the map shows presence only, not how strong each trace was.
How to read this: each dot is one detection of this species' DNA in an environmental sample. The confidence meter weighs how many independent studies and places back up the signal — one detection in one study is a hint; many across several studies is solid. Records dated before 2008 (when eDNA methods began) are treated as likely mislabeled and left off the map.
