Pterostylis antennifera is a species of greenhood orchid native to eastern Australia. It is similar in appearance to Pterostylis parviflora, but can be differentiated by the size and shape of their flowers.
Pterostylis antennifera is found in the states of Queensland and New South Wales, occurring in forested coastal, near coastal, and inland areas between Blackdown Tableland National Park in Queensland and Dubbo in New South Wales. It is common within this range. It grows in a range of forested habitats but most often in woodlands where the understory is sparse. It is capable of growing on slopes and ridges and can sometimes be found growing in shallow soils on rocky outcrops.
