Ophrys apifera (BEE ORCHID) is illustrated here (Plate 1106). It is a widespread species, occurring in southern and western Europe (absent from most of Scotland and Scandinavia), extending into south-western Asia and North Africa. A detailed description is provided, with notes on habitat and cultivation. Given its wide distribution, it is not threatened; however, collection in the eastern Mediterranean for salep production may lead to a decline in populations in the region.
