Taxonomy

The species was first described by Tsin Tang and Fa Tsuan Wang in 1940, as Herminium carnosilabre.[1] A molecular phylogenetic study in 2014 found that it was deeply embedded in a clade of Platanthera species, and so it was transferred to that genus as Platanthera carnosilabre.[2]

gollark: Oh yes, the hiding random useful features in annoying places isn't very good.
gollark: It's these stupid network effects and the fact that their platform does not directly integrate with anything else.
gollark: And you can't get around it (without breaking the ToS) because of the ridiculous custom client thing.
