Agalmyla species are humble climbers or shrubs in the Sumatran rainforest. They are hard to miss because of the striking flower colour. They are also anisophyllous, which means leaves appear in pairs, but one is significantly reduced and even absent.

The epiphytic cacti in the Andean rainforest of northern Peru.
The fairy lantern (Corybas barbarae) is a small terrestrial orchid endemic to eastern QLD and NSW (north of Sydney). The hairy labellum is covered by a large, curved, and inflated dorsal sepal. The linear lateral sepals are tiny (2mm), and the minute petals (1mm) are hidden by the labellum. It is believed that fungus gnats are its pollinators. Apart from that, little is known about its reproduction and dispersal mechanism.
