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: Ecuador and Peru. This epiphytic orchid is found on the
eastern slopes of the Andes, usually at elevations of 3950-5250 ft.
(1200-1600 m), but Jenny (1993) reported that plants have been found in
Peru between Tarapoto and Yurimaguas at 2450 ft. (750 m). Dodson & Bennett
(1989) reported a collection in Peru near Iquitos in the department of
Loreto at about 800 ft. (250 m). Dodson & Dodson (1989) reported
collections in eastern Ecuador from wet mountain forests at 1500-3300 ft.
(450-1000 m). Although reported by earlier writers as occurring in Central
America, Jenny (1993) stated that, "Reports of finds in central America
are certainly false."
