Notes: This distinct species was described by Hooker (1890) and placed in section Hologlossa (as Habenaria concinna ), but Kraenzlin (1899) transferred it under the genus Platanthera ( P. concinna ). It is a poorly known species and is closely related to P. dyeriana (Jin & Efimov, 2012; Singh et al., 2014), but can be distinguished by its more robust habit, many bract-like leaves and densely flowered racemes, but there is really no qualitative difference between these two species. Platanthera concinna has been reported from Assam by Efimov (2016) and Arunachal Pradesh and West Bengal by Singh et al. (2019), but no herbarium specimens were found from these states.
