Finding
SITF confirms that this plant is Anguloa tognettiae (July 2024). This plant was compared to A. x speciosa (A. virginalis x A. tognettiae). In A. virginalis, the attachment of the lip to the column foot is an elongated tubular structure folded completely back on itself. In A. tognettiae, the connection is almost straight down. Since A. x speciosa always exhibits some noticeable tubular extension and the petals of A. speciosa are rarely pure white due to the subtle pink spotting coming from A. virginalis, A. x speciosa was ruled out.
