| A new species of orchid found in Colombia has been named Telipogon diabolicus, because the heart of the flower bares an eerie resemblance to a devil's head. There aren't many flowers of this kind in existence. Researchers found a small patch of about 30 orchids between the borders of two Colombian departments. So far, this is its only known habitat. | ![]() |
| Because of its restricted habitat, researchers have assigned the flower a critically endangered species designation. While the flower resembles other species, it's 'devil's head' and clawed petals set it apart from anything else. |
