Dendrobium bannaense

A Chinese Dendrobium described in 2017 (Y.Q.Tian & Y.B.Huang), with no wild GBIF records. Its name points to Xishuangbanna (Banna) in southern Yunnan, a monsoon region with a warm, wet summer and a mild, dry winter; the measured climate point in Guizhou is far colder and probably misleading.
