Cattleya warscewiczii 40; the haploid chromosome number as "n" = 20. "C. warscewiczii" hybridizes naturally with "C. aurea / dowiana", producing "C. x hardyana". "C. warscewiczii" has also been used extensively in Cattleya hybridization, to produce large-flowered hybrid Cattleyas. 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
Portia labiata 4 millimetres below a leaf. The spider lies head down, and often slides down 20 to 30 millimetres during moulting. "Portia"s spin a similar temporary web for resting. "P. labiata" is found in Sri Lanka, India, southern China, Burma (Myanmar), Malaysia, Singapore, Java, Sumatra and the Philippines. The populations of "P. labiata" in Los Baños and in Sagada, both in the Philippines, have different environments: Los Baños is a low-lying tropical rainforest where there are many species of spiders, some of which are especially dangerous to "P. labiata"; and Sagada is at higher altitude, with pine-forest and fewer species of
