Holothrix (from the Greek for whole and hair; in reference to the st. being covered with hairs). Orchidaceae. A group of 50-60 species of terrestrial orchids from S. Afr. and Madagascar. Lvs. 1 or 2, sessile, ovate or orbicular-reniform, radical: scapes slender, usually hairy and without sheaths; fls. small, in slender, usually second spikes; sepals connivent, sometimes hairy; petals smaller and longer, entire or variously divided at the apex; lip erect or spreading, adnate to the base of the column; column very short, usually auricled at the sides of the stigma: caps, ovoid or oblong. These plants require the temperature of a warm greenhouse and thrive in a mixture of peat, sphagnum and charcoal. H. villosa, Lindl. Lvs. round, fleshy, hairy, borne close to the surface of the soil: infl. about 9 in. high; fls. about 30, small, yellowish green, slightly fragrant. S. Afr.
