Where it grows wild

Presumed an epiphyte of wet montane cloud forest in the Peruvian Andes, like the other recent Dalstrom species from Peru; no habitat account was reachable.

No elevation is recorded. The climate site is a stand-in at 273 m in the Huallaga-Ucayali lowlands chosen from the country outline; that is hot rainforest where no Masdevallia grows, and the real locality is almost certainly montane cloud forest above 1500 m.
