		The proper culture of Catasetums requires recognition of two distinct growth phases: 1, Active growth, which culminates with the onset of dormancy, as manifested by the withering and loss of foliage; 2, Dormancy, which lasts 6-12 weeks and culminates with the onset of new growth.
		During active growth, the principal danger to Catasetums is damage by snails and insects, particularly spider mites.
		Catasetums tolerate a wide light range, from Vanda light to Cattleya light; they may be watered freely during active growth, but water must be rigorously curtailed as dormancy approaches.

	CULTURE OF CATASETINAE
		Catasetums will do well in a variety of potting media so long as they are fertilized and watered regularly.
		Catasetums are heavy feeders and for optimum growth and flowering they should be fertilized weekly with whatever fertilizer you use for your other plants following package directions.
		Catasetums are prone to attacks by spider mites.

	Catasetum Information Sheet
		Catasetums can be grown with as much light as for cattleyas or as little as for phalaenopsis.
		Catasetum foliage is susceptible to spider mite infestation.
		As catasetum spikes become 4"-6" long, begin careful staking which may be helpful in encouraging good flower arrangement on the developing inflorescence.

	Catasetum
		Lindley, finding Monachantus, Catasetum and Myanthus - type flowers in a plant of C. cristatum, concluded that his previous classification had been lightly made and that all genera should be united in a single one.
		Pollination - Catasetum flowers produce no nectar and are pollinated by male euglossine bees, especially Euglossa and Eulaema, they are attracted to the flowers to collect and store floral fragrance, specifically aromatic hydrocarbons and volatile terpenes.
		The scent may only attract the bees for a short period of time but at the moment it begins to flower the bees typically arrive in large numbers; as soon as the flower stops emitting the fragrance the bees depart.

	Darwin, C. R. 1862. On the three remarkable sexual forms of Catasetum tridentatum, an orchid in the possession of the ...
		Again, in all three species of Catasetum the ovule-bearing cords are short, and the ovules present a considerably different appearance, in being thinner, more transparent, and less pulpy than in the numerous other Orchids examined for comparison.
		I was able to insert one of the pollen-masses of the male Catasetum into this cleft, which, from having been kept in spirits, was lined with coagulated beads of viscid matter and with utriculi.
		In Catasetum we have three sexual forms, generally borne on separate plants, but sometimes mingled together; and these three forms are wonderfully different from each other—much more different than, for instance, a peacock is from a peahen.

		Bees of the genera Eulaema, Euplusia and Euloglossa are mainly responsible for pollination of Catasetum.
		In most Catasetum species the male flowers begin to emit a strong musky odour 2-3 days after opening.
		Male bees are attracted by this, enter the flower and proceed to scratch at the source of the odor which is normally directly beneath the antennae at the base of the column.
