Maxillaria purpureolabia River Valley CBR 2024-10-28
Posted on October 28, 2024
Finding
Sitf confirms this plant as Maxillaria purpureolabia (Nov 2024). This plant is an excellent match to the photos and illustrations in Christenson's Maxillaria Monograph Vol. 2, including a distinctive, obscurely 3-lobed lip. The same drawing can be found in Icones Orchidacearum Peruviarum, Plate 702 and in the IOSPE. The size of flower is a little small, but the flower form, color, and plant habit match M. purpureolabia.
