| Deutsch: Ophrys incubacea ist weit verbreitet zwischen Portugal und dem früheren Jugoslawien. Durch die kräftigen Höcker mit kahler Innenseite, die drei hellen Flecken in der Narbenhöhle und die sich verjüngenden Petalen ist sie trotz der weiten geografischen Verbreitung sehr gut charakterisiert. Oft ist die Lippe von einem Kranz kräftiger Haare umgeben. Im westlichsten Teil ihres Verbreitungsgebiets sind die Höcker oft nicht kahl, und das Basalfeld manchmal ziemlich hell gefärbt. Ophrys incubacea wird von der Sandbiene Andrena morio bestäubt. Im Gebiet um Ocio in der nordspanischen Provinz Alava kommt Ophrys incubacea mit rosa Sepalen vor. Aus Italien wurde 2003 eine solche Farbabweichung von PERAZZA und DORO in Jour.Eur.Orch.35(4) als Ophrys incubacea var. dianensis beschrieben. |
| English: Ophrys incubacea is wide spread between Portugal and former Yugoslavia. Despite the wide geographical distribution it is very well characterized by the strong swellings with bald inner side, the three bright marks in the stigmatic cave, and the tapering petals. Often the lip is surrounded by a wreath of strong hairs. In the most Western part of its area the swellings often aren't bald, and the basale area is sometimes coloured rather bright orange. Ophrys incubacea is pollinated by the bee Andrena morio. In the region of Ocio in the Northern Spanish province of Alava Ophrys incubacea or a very closely related species is occurring with pink sepals. From Italy the same colour deviation has been described as Ophrys incubacea var. dianensis by PERAZZA and DORO in Jour.Eur.Orch.35(4) in 2003. |
