Masdevallia hubeinii

Masdevallia hubeinii is a little-known Colombia species described by Luer and Würstle (1986), known from little more than its original description. Grow it like other Andean cloud-forest Masdevallia: intermediate to cool, shaded, humid and airy.

Where it grows wild

Presumably an epiphyte of humid Andean montane or cloud forest, on mossy trunks and branches in bright shade, like most of the genus; no habitat data specific to this species were found.

No elevation is recorded; the climate site is a single fallback point at 174 m in the eastern llanos of Meta, far below the montane forest where Colombia Masdevallia species grow (mostly 1500 to 3000 m).
