Population ecology and conservation of Nervilia nipponica, an endangered orchid in Japan

Nervilia nipiponica is a small terrestrial orchid known from a limited number of woodland sites in southwest and central Japan. Its scattered distribution, small total population size and sensitivity to stochastic events have led to its classification as Endangered at the national level, and it has...
