Cattleya warscewiczii Cattleya warscewiczii Cattleya warscewiczii (The "Warscewicz's Cattley's orchid"), a labiate "Cattleya", is a species of orchid. It was first collected by Józef Warszewicz in Colombia in 1848-49 and formally described by Heinrich Gustav Reichenbach in 1855. "C. warscewiczii" exhibits a typical Cattleya sympodial habit. Pseudobulbs are 8-16" (20-40 cm) long, unifoliate, cylindrical or cigar-shaped, grooved. Flowers are 7-11" (17.5-27.5 cm) across, largest in the genus, showy, fragrant. In culture the flowering is in summer on that year`s spring growth. Strong light and good air movement are required. The diploid chromosome number of "C. warscewiczii" has been determined as 2"n" =
Portia labiata stands his ground and she does not ran away or repeat the propulsive display, he approaches and, if she is mature, they copulate. If the female is sub-adult (one moult from maturity), a male may cohabit in the female's capture web. "Portia"s usually mate on a web or on a dragline made by the female. "P. labiata" typically copulates for about 100 seconds, while other genera can take several minutes or even several hours. Females of "P. labiata" and "P. schultzi" try to kill and eat their mates during or after copulation, by twisting and lunging. The males wait until
