Hemipilia amplexifolia is a species of flowering plant in the family Orchidaceae, native to south-central China (western Sichuan). [1]
The species was first described in 1936 by Tsin Tang and Fa Tsuan Wang as Amitostigma amplexifolium. [1] A molecular phylogenetic study in 2014 found that species of Amitostigma, Neottianthe and Ponerorchis were mixed together in a single clade, making none of the three genera monophyletic as then circumscribed. Amitostigma and Neottianthe were subsumed into Ponerorchis, with this species then becoming Ponerorchis amplexifolia. [2] The genus Ponerorchis has now been synonymized with the genus Hemipilia, resulting in the present scientific name.
