Cattleya Cattleya Cattleya () is a genus of orchids from Costa Rica south to Argentina. The genus is abbreviated C in trade journals. Epiphytic or terrestrial orchids with cylindrical rhizome from which the fleshy noodle-like roots grow. Pseudobulbs can be conical, spindle-shaped or cylindrical; with upright growth; one or two leaves growing from the top of them. The leaves can be oblong, lanceolate or elliptical, somewhat fleshy, with smooth margin. The inflorescence is a terminal raceme with few or several flowers. Flowers have sepals and petals free from each other; the lip or labellum (lowermost petal), usually has a different coloration
Portia labiata occasionally jump on an insect. However, "Portia"s are not very good at catching moving insects and often ignore them, while some other salticid genera, especially the quick, agile "Brettus" and "Cyrba", perform well against small insects. When a "Portia" stalks another jumping spider, the prey generally faces the "Portia" and then either runs away or displays as it does to another member of its own species. The webs of spiders on which "Portia"s prey sometimes contain dead insects and other arthropods which are uneaten or partly eaten.
