Winika

''Winika'' is a monotypic genus of epiphytic orchids that is endemic to New Zealand. Its sole species is ''Winika cunninghamii''.
It is commonly found growing in rainforest in the North, South, Stewart and Chatham Islands. It normally flowers in summer and early autumn. Its common names are winika, pekapeka, orchid, bamboo orchid (owing to the bamboo / reed-like stems).
== History of taxonomy ==
''Winika cunninghamii'' was first discovered and catalogued by Solander as ''Epidendrum pendulum''. Subsequently it was recatalogued as ''Dendrobium cunninghamii'' and stayed that way until M. A. Clements removed it to form ''Winika cunninghamii''.
;Derivation of Winika
:::"''Winika'' is the accepted old Māori language name for this orchid. The name ''Te Winika'' was given to the sacred war canoe of the Tainui people because this orchid grew on the tōtara tree (''Podocarpus totara'') which was hollowed out to form the hull.〔(Moore & Irwin, 1978)〕 We assign the feminine gender to it—''Winika cunninghamii''. The Māori Queen, Te Arikinui Dame Te Atairangikaahu, granted consent to use the name ''Winika'', because of its particular cultural significance to her Tainui people." 〔Clements MA, Jones DL, Molloy BPJ. 1997. ''Winika'', a new monotypic genus for the New Zealand orchid previously known as ''Dendrobium cunninghamii'' Lindl. ''Orchadian'' 12. (5): 214-220 (1997)〕
