Pterostylis robusta, also known as the sharp-leaf greenhood, is a type of orchid found in south-eastern Australia. It has distinct differences between its non-flowering and flowering plants, with the latter having a single flower on a spike. The flower is relatively large and has green, white, and reddish-brown colors with stripes. This orchid has dark green, egg-shaped leaves when not flowering, and its flowering period is from April to August. It was first described in 1927 and its name, robusta, means "strong like oak" in Latin. This species is most commonly found in South Australia and is also present in Victoria and New South Wales.
