Cryptostylis (Orchidaceae) 4a:125  
Tasmania has two species of tongue or duckbill orchids (Cryptostylis). These have one, or a few, quite large, relatively narrow leaves. The leaves are at the base of the stem and are held stiffly erect. The flowers are on slender erect stems and have small, inverted (i.e. labellum upwards) flowers.
