Cattleya amethystoglossa Cattleya amethystoglossa Cattleya amethystoglossa (the "amethyst-lipped Cattley flower") is a bifoliate species of orchid from the genus "Cattleya". "C. amethystoglossa" is native to Brazil in the states of Bahia and possibly Espirito Santo, where it is found near sea level in close proximity to the Atlantic Ocean. "C. amethystoglossa" grows on palm tree trunks, rock, and large tree branches high in the canopy of evergreen trees. This plant is found growing in bright, airy, humid locations. Its native range has been greatly reduced due to habitat destruction, logging, and agriculture. "C. amethystoglossa" is a tall plant and has pseudobulbs that
Portia labiata empty husk of the prey. Others grind the prey to pulp using the fangs and the bases of the pedipalps, while flooding it with enzymes; in these species the fangs and the bases of the pedipalps form a preoral cavity that holds the food they are processing. Occasionally a "Portia" is killed or injured while pursuing prey up to twice "Portia"′s size. "P. labiata" is killed in 2.1% of pursuits and injured but not killed in 3.9%, "P. schultzi" is killed in 1.7% and injured but not killed in 5.3%, and "P. fimbriata" in Queensland is killed in 0.06% of
