Pterostylis paludosa, also known as swamp greenhood, is a type of greenhood orchid that is native to New Zealand. When not in flower, it has a rosette of leaves on a short stalk, but when in bloom, it has a single flower on a tall stem. The flower is translucent white with pale to yellowish-green stripes. This plant grows in peat bogs and heath in sunny areas and can be found on both the North and South Islands of New Zealand, as well as on Chatham Island. However, it is considered "at risk - declining" due to threats such as wetland drainage and changes in fire patterns. It was first described in 1997 and its name, paludosa, means "boggy" or "marshy" in Latin.
