Thelasis longifolia Hook.f., Fl. Brit. India 6: 87 (1890).

Family: Orchidaceae
Location: Pithoragarh, Uttarakhand
Distribution: Sikkim, Assam, Uttarakhand
Endemic to India most probably, but I believe it should be found in
Nepal if it is on both sides. For those wrong believers who think a
bulb with leaves belong to Bulbophyllum.
