Hemipilia simplex is a species of plant in the family Orchidaceae. It is endemic to China, where it is found in Sichuan and Yunnan.[2][3][1] Its flowers are yellow, sometimes with brown spots.[3]

Taxonomy

The species was first described in 1940 by Tsin Tang and Fa Tsuan Wang, as Amitostigma simplex.[4] A molecular phylogenetic study in 2014 found that species of Amitostigma, Neottianthe and Ponerorchis were mixed together in a single clade, making none of the three genera monophyletic as then circumscribed. Amitostigma and Neottianthe were subsumed into Ponerorchis, with this species then becoming Ponerorchis simplex.[5] The genus Ponerorchis has since been synonymized with the genus Hemipilia, resulting in the present name.
