The flowers of family Orchidaceae are mono-symmetric and show a great level of specialization in pollination mechanism. Zygomorphy is
perceived to be an added advantage for pollination. It is also thought that pollinator driven selection pressure might have evolved
zygomorphy over ancestral actinomorphy in both Eudicots and Monocots. The floral contour of orchids often helps in guiding its pollinators
to accomplish pollination, without reward-wastage or pollen robbing. The present communication gives a glimpse of orchid floral morphology
in relation to their pollination mechanism.
