Monotropa uniflora L.
INDIANPIPE
**
This achlorophyllous mycoheterotrophic species is mainly linked with ectomycorrhizal species of Russulaceae (Bidartondo & Bruns 2001; Kong et al. 2015). A recent study provides support for the recognition of M. brittonii, possibly endemic to Florida, with tapered filaments (apical width 0.55-0.85 times the basal width), larger petals, stamens, and ovaries, hairier petals and filaments, nectar spurs divergent (ca. 50-110 degree angle), largely confined to scrubby habitats, and mycorrhizal with species of the Lactifluus deceptivus complex (perhaps L. arcuatus, L. caeruleitinctus) (Keesling 2020).
