Masdevallia ejiriana

Masdevallia ejiriana is an Ecuadorian endemic described by Luer and Portilla from cultivated material, with no wild GBIF records and no published habitat detail. Species from this source usually come from the wet eastern Andean slopes of southern Ecuador, so treat it as a cool-to-intermediate cloud-forest Masdevallia; the climate point in the data is the country centroid near Banos at 1215 m and is only loosely indicative.
