Ophrys fuciflora (late spider-orchid) is a species of flowering plant in the orchid family.

There has been considerable confusion over the correct name of this species. Many authors have called it Ophrys holoserica, but O. holoserica (Burm.f.) Greuter is a synonym of a different species, Ophrys apifera, the bee orchid.[1]
