Abstract

A new orchid species, , is described from Songpan County and Maoxian County, Sichuan Province, China. Morphologically, is most similar to , but can be distinguished by the combination of its involute middle lip lobe that is smaller than the lateral lobes, floral bracts that are 5 mm long and are always shorter than the ovary, a leaf that is appressed to the substrate and is adaxially green with white lines along 7-9 principal veins and the subterranean stem with a solitary sheath at its base. The floral morphology of is presented by utilising micro-CT scanning and 3D visualisation.
