Eucrosia eucrosioides
Eucrosia eucrosioides is a species of plant that is found in south west Ecuador and north Peru. Its natural habitats are seasonally dry lowland areas. It grows from bulbs 3–4 cm in diameter. The stalked (petiolate) leaves are glaucous and have blades (laminae) 25 cm long by 20 cm wide. The zygomorphic flowers are orange, produced in an umbel; the stamens have prominent long filaments. In its natural habitat, flowering is August to October. The flowers are thought to be adapted for butterfly pollination, but a single report of hummingbird visitation is recorded for this species.
