Ophrys spruneri

Ophrys spruneri is an orchid species that is endemic to Greece, with a distribution extending the length of Greece down to Crete and from the Ionian islands across to Chios in the Aegean where it is not at all common however and seems absent altogether from the other major Aegean islands.

Naming

This species was first described by Nyman from Aegina island, Greece in 1855 and takes its name from a famous 19th century German botanist, Herr W. von Spruner.
