Corallorhiza trifida
Template:Short description Template:Speciesbox
Corallorhiza trifida, commonly known as early coralroot, northern coralroot, or yellow coralroot, is a coralroot orchid native to North America and Eurasia, with a circumboreal distribution. The species has been reported from the United States, Canada, Russia, China, Japan, Korea, India, Nepal, Kashmir, Pakistan, and almost every country in Europe.[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8]
Description
Corallorhiza trifida is yellowish green in color, leafless, and partially myco-heterotrophic, deriving some, but not all of its nutrients from association with fungi of genus Tomentella.[9] It also contains chlorophyll, with which it supplies some of its own carbon nutrition via autotrophy.[9]
