Dear All,

This one was found among dense patch of vegetation, on a wooden log (perhaps a dead tree)..leaves large, only fruits were seen, perhaps flowering was completely over..

This was not common, seen only once during the three days tour...

Please provide help to id...

This is a Calanthe but without flowers species can't be confirmed ...

Seems to be some Calenthe sp., probably C. tricarinata!

Not easy to confirm. But towards Chakrata I know of Calanthe plantaginea.
