Epidendrum fulgens Irene CHM 2024-07-20

Posted on July 20, 2024

Finding
SITF has confirmed that this plant is Epidendrum fulgens (Aug 2024). The lip callus on this plant is an excellent match to that on the illustration in the 1975 Band I of Pabst/Dungs "Orchidaceae Brasiliensis". This crest consisting of two globular structures at the top and a single central ridge ending in a sharp point fits the species. It is an excellent match to Grobler's photo in the IOSPE.
