Dracula spectrum View in CoL (Rchb.f.) A.Doucette, comb. nov.
Basionym: — Masdevallia spectrum Rchb. View in CoL f., Gard. Chron. 3: 429. 3 Apr 1875. Lectotype (designated by C. A. Luer in C. A. Luer & R. Escobar 1989: ad t. 12, as “type”): COLOMBIA: Antioquia: Medellín, s.d., Shuttleworth s.n., W!. Note: In this case, it seems appropriate to consider Luer’s designation as a lectotype. The sheet consists of two elements—pressed flowers collected by Shuttleworth and a letter from Kramer including a sketch sent to Reichenbach for identification. The letter and sketch from Kramer does not appear to be original material.
