Masdevallia jorge-warneri
Masdevallia jorge-warneri was described from Costa Rica as Reichantha jorge-warneri and moved to Masdevallia by Bogarín in 2016; it belongs to the warm-growing group around Masdevallia floribunda and tonduzii. Its two wild records sit in the hot, wet Caribbean lowlands of northern Costa Rica near 90 m, so unlike most of the genus it wants warm nights and lowland humidity.
Where it grows wild
Small epiphyte on shaded trunks and branches in wet lowland and foothill rainforest of the Caribbean slope of Costa Rica and adjoining Nicaragua, where the air is warm and humid year round.
The two wild records are from the northern Caribbean lowlands of Costa Rica at about 90 m; the Reichantha group generally occurs from near sea level to about 1200 m.
