Epipactis figueroa (Subspecies Epipactus figueroa octingenti on a good day), common name Giant Hellmouthborine, is a recently discovered species of orchid from the Hellmouth region of Utah. It appears to have formed a symbiotic relationship with Sunbeams pitcher Elvis Figueroa and his Adapted mychorrizal fungal network. It is fully mycoheterotrophic, relying entirely on the nutrients provided by Figueroa. Despite this, Figueroa describes the relationship as "not parasitic" as he "really likes having nice flowers around, except for the bees". As the bees in Hellmouth are known for the wide variety of horrifying effects their sting can have, his flippancy about the bee-attracting qualities of E. figueroa was particularly noted and admired by this researcher.
