Hemipilia gracilis, commonly known as delicate amitostigma, [2] is a species of plant in the family Orchidaceae. [3] It is widespread across much of eastern Asia where it has been reported from Japan, Korea, Taiwan, and China ( Anhui, Fujian, Guangxi, Guizhou, Hebei, Henan, Hubei, Hunan, Jiangsu, Liaoning, Shaanxi, Shandong, Sichuan, and Zhejiang). [1] [4]
The species was first described by Carl Ludwig Blume in 1856, as Mitostigma gracile. It has been placed in various genera, including Gymnadenia, Orchis and Amitostigma. [1] A molecular phylogenetic study in 2014, in which it was included as Amitostigma gracile, 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 gracilis. [5] The genus Ponerorchis has since been synonymized with the genus Hemipilia, resulting in the present name.
