ported Cyrtopodium Andersoniu from the Boeas Islands, 
he was referring to C. punctatum. He stated that he was 
giving the ‘‘specific name with some hesitation.’’ All of 
the Trinidad collections of Cyrtopodium punctatum are 
from Chacachacare, one of the Bocas Islands (vide sub

Aripo Savannah. This species is apparently endemic to 
Trinidad. It has been confused with Cyrtopodium cris- 
tatum Lindl. of northern South America.
