Luminosa Florealis, from Latin 'light-bearing flower,' is a bioluminescent plant in the Etheric Radiantum cluster, reaching 10 cm height. It features a rosette of broad, undulating, translucent petals with waxy texture, shifting from vivid orange at the base to ethereal blue at the tips, decorated with light-scattering glandular dots. The short, sturdy stem supports lanceolate ribbed leaves that sway in tropical rainforest canopies. Bioluminescence peaks at 420-490 nm from luciferin-containing cells in petals, serving as nocturnal signals to attract moths and beetles for cross-pollination. Thriving at 15-30°C in humid, low-wind tropical canopy conditions, it supports local pollinator populations. Classified in genus Luminosa, family Radiantaceae, it is entomophilous and vulnerable due to habitat specificity, underscoring tropical canopy conservation importance.
