Pterostylis longicurva, also known as the long-tongued greenhood, is a type of orchid found only in eastern Australia. This perennial herb has a unique appearance, with a rosette of dark green leaves when not in flower and a single white and green flower with brown markings when in bloom. It can be found in shady forest areas from New South Wales to south-east Queensland. The species was first described in 1941 and its name comes from the Latin words for "long" and "bent", referring to its distinctive curved labellum. Flowering occurs from April to June.
