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: Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, Costa Rica, and Panama. In
Colombia, these plants were first found in the Department of Cauca where
they were growing in trees of moist forests near Popayán at 5250-6550 ft.
(1600-2000 m). They have since been found at numerous other locations in
western and southern Colombia at 3300-6550 ft. (1000-2000 m). Collections
have also been made in Ecuador, mostly at 4250-5900 ft. (1300-1800 m), but
with plants reported from as low as 1000 ft. (300 m) and from as high as
10,750 ft. (3280 m). Plants have also been found in Peru in the Department
of Amazonas with no additional details reported. Plants formerly known as
Restrepia subserrata Schlechter are found in Costa Rica and Panama. In
Panama, they have been found in Chiriquí Province at 5900-6550 ft.
(1800-6550 m). Luer (1996) stated, "As presently conceived, R.
trichoglossa is a frequent, widely distributed species-complex that occurs
from Chiapas, Mexico, through Central America into the Andes of Colombia,
Ecuador and Peru. "
