Luminflora Spectrala, from Latin ‘lumen’ (light) and ‘flora’ (flower), with ‘spectrala’ for its vivid spectral bioluminescence, is a delicate bioluminescent flowering plant of the Galacticae Petalia cluster. It grows 10-25 cm tall, with semi-translucent, bluish, iridescent petals bearing dense orange bioluminescent glands emitting 420-490 nm (soft blue-green glow). The complex corolla features ruffled petals spiraling from a central stigma and orange-tipped stamens for pollen dispersal. Leaves show delicate veins on a fragile stem. Native to tropical rainforest understory, it thrives in shaded, humid microclimates at 15-25°C. Bioluminescence likely attracts nocturnal pollinators. Belonging to family Galacticaceae, genus Luminflora (10 species), it is vulnerable due to habitat loss and provides a luminous beacon promoting biodiversity in threatened habitats.
