Dendrobium begaudii

A small New Caledonian epiphytic orchid first described by Cavestro in 2001 as Diplocaulobium begaudii and later moved to Dendrobium. Diplocaulobium-type dendrobiums have slender one-leaved pseudobulbs and short-lived flowers that open in flushes. With no wild records, the climate here is a representative lowland site in New Caledonia.
