About

Gymnadenia dolomitensis is a species of orchid found in the Dolomites mountain range of Italy.

Where it grows

The holotype was found in the Dolomites in Italy which the species is also named for, growing at an altitude of 2460m. There has since been reports of G. dolomitensis from other locations including Germany and Austria but due to the similarity with other species the distribution outside of Italy is unclear.
