Representative specimens from Veracruz: —Coatepec: A.C. Hernández R. 287 (XAL). Tlalnelhuayocan: C.I. Carvajal H. et al. 326 (XAL).

Ecology: — Epiphytic (often on tree ferns); in central Veracruz in montane rain forests between 1660–1750 m .

Conservation status: — Endangered ( EN) B2 ab(ii,iii) in Veracruz. Known from only two recent collections (AOO: 53.75 km 2) made in humid montane forest fragments of central Veracruz, which are still under high anthropogenic pressure and not included inside Veracruz’ protected areas network. Specimens examined: 1; TK collections: 1 .

Note:— In Mexico , this species was heretofore known only from Chiapas, Guerrero, and Oaxaca ( Mickel & Smith 2004), and thus the specimen collected and reported by Hernández Rojas (2010) is the first record for Veracruz.
