THQERLE, Lisa  e  SOTO, Carmen. A new species and a new record in Trichosalpinx (Orchidaceae: pleurothallidinae) from Peru. Lankesteriana [online]. 2015, vol.15, n.1, pp.93-99. ISSN 1409-3871.

A new species in Trichosalpinx is described, illustrated, and compared with similar species, and a new record for Peru is described and illustrated. A brief history of the genus is provided. Trichosalpinx reticulata is most similar to T. carmeniae, but differs with a reticulated, gray-green leaf; a longer inflorescence; and a lip with a pair of low, rounded basal lobes and an obtuse apex. Trichosalpinx acremona is recorded from Peruvian collections.
