The origin/habitat information below is supplied courtesy of Charles and Margaret Baker
The following information is based on the name of the plant provided by the donor, and assumes that the name is correct. If the plant has been misidentified, then the following information may not be correct.
This text is copyrighted by the Bakers and may not be reproduced without permission.
ORIGIN/HABITAT: Mexico. A relatively common species in southern Mexico in
the States of Oaxaca, Jalisco, Michoacan, Mexico, and Guerrero, and the
distribution may extend to the States of Durango and Sinaloa. It is
reported in Guatemala, but those reports are questioned by current
authorities. Plants grow on trees or rocky slopes in damp, relatively
shady, mixed pine-oak forests at 4900–9800 ft. (1500–3000 m). A
pink-flowered form (Rhynchostele cervantesii ssp. membranacea (Lindley)
Soto Arenas & Salazar, previously known as Odontoglossum cervantesii
subvar. roseum Veitch) is found only in the southern Sierra Madre in
Oaxaca at somewhat higher elevations than the typical form.
