Monotropaceae (from the genus Monotropa, meaning one turn, in reference to the nodding flower). Indian-pipe Family. Low, saprophytic herbs, without chlorophyll, white, yellowish, brownish, or blood-red in color: leaves alternate, reduced to scales: flowers 1 to several, bisexual, regular, a lobed, hypogynous disk sometimes present; calyx 5-parted, rarely 0; corolla of 4-5, separate, gibbous petals, these rarely coherent; stamens 8-10, hypogynous; anthers opening by slits, 1—2-celled, often appendaged; ovary 4-5-celled, superior, many-ovuled; style and stigma 1: fruit a capsule.
The Indian-pipe family contains 8 genera and about 12 species, all North American except 1 Himalayan species and 1 found in both Europe and America; most abundant in the West. The family is closely related to the Ericaceae, Pyrolaceae and Clethraceae, from which it differs mainly in method of nutrition. Sarcodes sanguinea, the Sierran snow plant, is bright red in color.
The Monotropaceae are not known to be in cultivation.
