== Description of the flower == Broad asymmetric lateral [[sepal]]s, dorsal sepal lowered. Extended [[petal]]s, yellow or with a blue-grey or brown spotted [[velvety]] [[macula]]. Pollinated by male ''[[Andrena]]'' bees. This species is notable among ''[[Ophrys]]'' for the fact that the pollinating bees sit on the [[Labellum (botany)|labellum]] facing away from the [[pollinaria]] instead of facing towards them, and thus collect the pollinaria with their [[abdomen]].
