Paracaleana minor
Paracaleana minor, the small duck orchid may be seen in New Zealand and in eastern and southern Australia. It grows in the same habitat and resembles the somewhat larger flying duck orchid. However, these plants are seldom noticed because of their small size. The habitat varies, usually it is seen in open country, in rocky areas, on sloping ground. Often with grasses and smaller trees. Like the flying duck orchid, it may be noticed growing at the base of eucalyptus trees. The orchid flower is structured for insect pollination. Though some populations set viable seeds asexually.
