Masdevallia fenestralis

Masdevallia fenestralis Dalström & Ruíz Pérez was described from Peru in Lankesteriana in 2015 alongside Masdevallia fenestrellata, and has no wild GBIF records and no cultivation literature. The Peruvian Masdevallias described in that period come from Andean cloud forest, so grow it cool-to-intermediate until its locality is published.

Where it grows wild

No habitat data beyond the genus pattern: a small tufted epiphyte of humid Andean cloud forest. The climate site in the data is a lowland Amazon fallback point and does not describe the habitat.

Unknown; the 273 m fallback site is not a collection. Expect the species to come from 1500 to 2800 m like most recent Peruvian descriptions.
