This plant was collected at 1700 - 1800 m near a town call San Francisco in the cloud forest of the Andean, the begin of the Amazon... I think is intermediate with heavy humidity...

Default New Maxillaria

Beautiful flowers! I forwarded this link to Eric Christenson in Florida who is the world's expert on Maxillaria- He will be able to shed soem light!

Looks kind of like a cross between striata and fletcheriana-

always happy to trade Maxillarias!
