GHALLEY, Bhakta Bdr.; DALSTROM, Stig; SAGAR, Laxmi y GURUNG, Mer Man. A new early-flowering spotted Chiloschista (Aeridinae) from Bhutan. Lankesteriana [online]. 2022, vol.22, n.2, pp.117-122. ISSN 1409-3871. http://dx.doi.org/10.15517/lank.v22i2.51751.
A new species of Chiloschista from a restricted area in Bhutan is described and illustrated. It is featured with color photos and a map showing its only known locality. The new species is compared with the other three spotted Chiloschista species from Bhutan: C. densiflora, C. gelephuense, and C. himalaica, which have similarly colored flowers, but different lip structure and the differences are explained and illustrated.
