A checklist of the family Orchidaceae of Madhya Pradesh with updated taxonomy has been prepared to assess the diversity of the family in the state with updated taxonomy after the bifurcation of the state. The checklist has been prepared on the basis of the herbarium consultation (BSA) and the relevant literatures pertaining to the floristic diversity of the state. The checklist comprises 59 species under 27 genera. At the species level, maximum diversity has been recorded in genus Habenaria (11 species) Peristylis and Vanda (6 species each).
