Common Name The Bird's Beak Bulbophyllum
Flower Size
Found only in Java as a small sized, hot to warm growing epiphyte. Much confusion reigns here as to if it is a synonym of B leysianum or antenniferum or both, if so then it would be as Seidenfaden has it, both B ornithorhynchum and leysianum as a synonym of B antenniferum
Synonyms *Cirrhopetalum ornithorhynchum J.J.Sm. 1903; Hyalosema ornithorhynchum (J.J.Sm.) Rysy 2002;
