Lindl., but with the subquadrate mid-lobe of the lip seen 
in P. minor. P. stenophylla has even narrower leaves 
than P. Huebneri, but the panicle is described as always 
shorter than the leaves and the larger flowers appear to 
be similar to those of P. minor. 
This extremely polymorphic species extends from 
Mexico (P. cerea), through Central America (P. clavata, 
P. guatemalensis, P. panamensis), through the West 
Indies (P. minor, P. cubensis) to South America (Stelis 
foliosa, Encycha nana, Encyclia polystachya, P. Wei- 
geltu, P. altilamellata, P. ecuadorensis, P. amazonica, P. 
Huebneri and P. stenophylla).

It has been pointed out by Cogniaux (l.c.) that War- 
rea tricolor represents the plant depicted as Maaillaria 
Warreana. 
The concept described and figured as Warrea speciosa 
seems to be surely referable to the same species. 
According to strict adherence to the rule of priority, 
it becomes necessary to make the above combination.
