doubt that it belongs to the genus Prescottia and that 
it is the same as the plant commonly determined as 
Prescottia pachyrhiza Richard & Galeotti.

tubulosa, but the record is not satisfactory for certain 
identification.

appears that it should have been placed in the genus 
Cheirostylis because of the connate bases of the sepals and 
because of the form of the column.
