Bulbophyllum evasum
Bulbophyllum evasum, commonly known as creeping brittle orchid, is a species of epiphytic or lithophytic orchid with creeping brittle rhizomes, small, stubby pseudobulbs and dark green, fleshy leaves. The flowers are small, pink to reddish with dark stripes and yellow tips, clustered on the end of a dark red flowering stem. This orchid grows in rainforest on tree trunks and branches as well as on rocks, in tropical North Queensland.
Creeping brittle orchid grows on trees, rocks and mossy boulders in the ranges at altitudes of between 1,000 and 1,600 m (3,300 and 5,200 ft) between the Cedar Bay National Park and the Paluma Range National Park..
