澳大利亚本土兰花协会 (Australasian Native Orchid Society, 简称 ANOS Inc.) 是澳大利亚、新西兰、巴布亚新几内亚以及相邻西太平洋地区最具代表性的本土兰科植物组织。其宗旨是促进对自然分布于本地区的兰科物种 (以及仅由这些物种杂交培育的杂交种) 的理解、保护、繁育与欣赏，业务覆盖保育、研究、物种与杂交种繁殖、栽培、展览、评奖、摄影、本土植物与环境认知、野外考察等多个领域。ANOS Inc. 自身并不直接组织月度集会或兰展，相关活动均由其下属的 ANOS 各地分会 (Groups) 负责，会员需加入本地分会以参与月会与兰展。
机构与历史
ANOS 的前身可追溯至 1963 年 8 月 — 当时创刊的季刊《The Orchadian》最初只是一份手抄油印的通讯，用于会员之间交流本土兰花的栽培、分类与保育心得。随着会员网络向澳大利亚各州、新西兰以及巴布亚新几内亚扩展，协会逐渐发展出覆盖全国乃至大洋洲的统筹架构。ANOS Inc. 通过会员订阅《The Orchadian》杂志的方式运作，会籍以财政年度 (7 月至次年 6 月) 为单位，会员同时享有在年度会员大会 (AGM) 上的投票权，董事会与各州分会通过该机制共同决定协会的方向、政策与资源分配。
会刊 The Orchadian
《The Orchidian》(The Orchadian) 是 ANOS Inc. 的官方季刊，1963 年 8 月创刊，从手抄油印起步，逐步升级为全彩印刷的 48 页专业杂志，2026 年已出至第 21 卷。期刊内容涵盖本土兰花的物种介绍、杂交种繁育、栽培技术、展览与会议、野外考察、科学研究、兰花历史与新发现、保育进展以及 ANOS 评奖动态。投稿须经编辑部初筛，学术与分类学专文另由国家标本馆 (herbarium) 或同等学术机构的同行专家匿名审稿；稿件截止日分别为 2 月 15 日、5 月 15 日、8 月 15 日与 11 月 15 日。会员可选择数字版 (在线阅读 + PDF 下载) 或纸质版 (邮寄 + 数字版)，两者内容完全一致。
评奖体系与分会网络
ANOS 运营一套针对 Australasian 地区本土兰花的评奖 (Judging) 体系，评奖标准与流程载于《ANOS Judging Handbook》(2018 年 9 月发布 v8.10 版)。各州/地区设立区域评奖小组 (Regional Judging Panel)，新南威尔士州、昆士兰州、维多利亚州设有完整的小组与培训课程，由注册评委 (Certificated Judge)、助理评委 (Associate Judge) 与评委 (Judge) 三个级别构成。国家级奖项在每三年一次的 ANOS 全国大会 (Tri-Annual Conference) 上由全国总评委 (National Registrar) 主持颁发，奖项等级包括 FCC/AM/HCC 品质奖、ACC 栽培奖、AD 杰出奖、ABE 植物学卓越奖以及 CBR 认可奖。
下属分会 (ANOS Groups)
ANOS 在澳大利亚与新西兰共有数十个地区分会，每月举行例会、年度兰展与野外考察，活跃分会包括新南威尔士州的 ANOS Central Coast (Narara)、ANOS Far North Coast (Lismore)、ANOS Newcastle、ANOS Macarthur，昆士兰州的 ANOS Kabi Group (Brisbane/Gympie)、NOSTI (Toowoomba)，维多利亚州、西澳大利亚州、南澳大利亚州以及新西兰的分会。年度兰展集中在 4-5 月的”Bigibbum Show” (石斛 Dendrobium bigibbum 系列展) 和 8 月的”Speciosum Show” (Dendrobium speciosum 展) 两大主题，前后贯穿全年。分会同时承担本土兰花保育项目，例如新南威尔士中央海岸的兰花栖息地调查与保护规划反馈。
The Australasian Native Orchid Society Inc. (ANOS Inc.) is the major regional organisation promoting the understanding and appreciation of orchid species that grow naturally in Australia, New Zealand, Papua New Guinea and the adjacent western Pacific islands, as well as hybrids bred exclusively from these native species. Its scope spans conservation, research, species and hybrid breeding, culture, shows, displays, judging, photography, learning about the Australian flora and environment, and field excursions. ANOS Inc. itself does not hold monthly meetings, shows or member events; these are organised by its affiliated ANOS Groups around the region, and members join their local group to participate.
Organisation and history
ANOS traces its roots to August 1963, when the quarterly journal The Orchadian was first issued as a hand-printed newsletter. As the membership network expanded across Australian states, New Zealand and Papua New Guinea, the society grew into the coordinating body it is today. Membership of ANOS Inc. is conferred through an annual subscription to The Orchadian, aligned to the financial year (July to June), and members hold voting rights at the Annual General Meeting (AGM), where the board and affiliated groups determine the society’s direction, policy and resource allocation.
The Orchadian journal
The Orchadian is the official quarterly journal of ANOS Inc. Now in its 21st volume (2026), the publication has grown from its hand-printed origins into a 48-page full-colour magazine. It carries articles on culture, species, hybrids, shows and conferences, field excursions, scientific work, orchid history and discovery, conservation, and ANOS awards. Scientific and major taxonomy articles are peer-reviewed by staff of national herbaria or equivalent tertiary institutions. Copy deadlines are 15 February, 15 May, 15 August and 15 November. Members can choose between a digital subscription (online reading plus PDF download) and a printed subscription (postal delivery plus the digital edition); the content is identical across the two formats.
Judging system and awards
ANOS operates a dedicated judging system for Australasian native orchids, governed by the ANOS Judging Handbook (v8.10, September 2018). Regional Judging Panels run in New South Wales, Queensland and Victoria, with elected Registrars coordinating rosters, panels and image libraries. Three levels of judge accreditation are recognised: Certificated Judge, Associate Judge and Judge. National awards are conferred at the tri-annual ANOS Conference by the National Registrar, and span quality awards (FCC, AM, HCC), cultural (ACC), distinction (AD), botanical excellence (ABE) and recognition (CBR) categories.
Affiliated groups and events
ANOS maintains dozens of affiliated Groups across Australia and New Zealand, each holding monthly meetings, annual shows and field excursions. Active groups include ANOS Central Coast (Narara, NSW), ANOS Far North Coast (Lismore, NSW), ANOS Newcastle, ANOS Macarthur (NSW), ANOS Kabi Group (Brisbane / Gympie region, QLD), NOSTI (Toowoomba, QLD) and groups in Victoria, Western Australia, South Australia and New Zealand. The show calendar is anchored by the April-May Bigibbum Show season (Dendrobium bigibbum and related hybrids) and the August Speciosum Show season (Dendrobium speciosum). Several groups also lead conservation projects, including the New South Wales Central Coast habitat survey and development-plan feedback programme.
