Gender, form, and etymology
Feminine
Etymology:

Greek, διχῶς, dichos, split, doubly, in two; Greek, πέταλον, petalon, petal, leaf. "διχῶς = dupliciter πέταλον = folium, lamina" (Brunner von Wattenwyl 1878). This generic name probably references the split female subgenital used to characterize the genus.
