Chinese scientists have found a rare plant species Paphiopedilum wardii Summerhayes in southwest China's Yunnan Province.

近，我国科研人员在云南高黎贡山国家级自然保护区福贡段发现国家一级重点保护野生植彩云。

" Since 2004, I have gone to the Gaoligong Mountains for some 100 field investigations and found more than 30 new species of Orchidaceae, but not a single wild plant of Paphiopedilum wardii Summerhayes, " said Jin Xiaohua, a researcher from the institute.

“我从 2004 年起前往高黎贡山进行了上百次野外调查，在当地发现科植新种三十多种，但一直没有发现野生彩云。”
