GUTIERREZ MORALES, Nicolás; HARDING, Patricia; DALSTROM, Stig  e  MORENO, Juan Sebastián. A new species of cyrtochilum (orchidaceae: oncidiinae) from the eastern cordillera of Colombia. Lankesteriana [online]. 2018, vol.18, n.1, pp.63-68. ISSN 1409-3871.  http://dx.doi.org/10.15517/lank.v18i1.33098.

A new species of Cyrtochilum from the Eastern Cordillera of Colombia is described and illustrated. The new species is most similar to the pink-flowered Cyrtochilum distans but is distinguished by its white and yellow-green flowers with spreading sepals and a pink lip with a basally yellow and apically white callus consisting of two parallel keels (vs. pink lateral sepals that are fused to about half or more of their length and a white callus consisting of two basal and two apical spreading keels).
