Aphyllorchis montana is the only species found in this genus in Sri Lanka. In 1981, Jayaweera recorded that this species as rare and no live plant was observed. Record was made based on a specimen collected from Ambagamuwa near Rathnapura. A live plant was observed with flowers in Kanneliya, along Kabbale Kanda route in July. This VU species was observed only in Kanneliya FR, but cannot observe this species during the dry season in February.
