Habenaria repens, commonly called the water-spider bog orchid or the floating orchid, is an orchid species widespread across Latin America from Mexico and the West Indies south to Argentina , as well as in the Southeastern United States from Texas and Oklahoma east to Florida and the Carolinas plus an isolated population in Virginia.[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12]
A phenolic compound called habenariol can be found in H. repens.[13] It acts as a feeding deterrent.[14]
