Eulophia dabia is a species of flowering plant in the family Orchidaceae, native from Afghanistan to south China and the Nicobar Islands.[1] It was first described by David Don in 1825 as Bletia dabia.[2]
Distribution
[edit]Eulophia dabia is native to Afghanistan, China (south-central, southeast and Hainan), the Indian subcontinent (Bangladesh, the east and west Himalayas, the Indian region, Nepal and Pakistan), and Central Asia (Tajikistan, Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan).[1]
Conservation
[edit]Eulophia faberi was assessed as "vulnerable" in the 2004 IUCN Red List, where it is said to be native only to China.[3] As of February 2023[update], E. faberi was regarded as a synonym of Eulophia dabia, which has a much wider distribution.[1]
