Oncidium khoochongyeei

A Peruvian Oncidium named by J.M.H. Shaw in 2012, almost certainly as a replacement name for an odontoglossum-group species, and essentially undocumented in cultivation. With no mapped records, the best guess is a cool to intermediate Andean cloud-forest epiphyte; the lowland climate below should not be followed.

Where it grows wild

Nothing specific is published. Peruvian members of the odontoglossum alliance are epiphytes of montane cloud forest, and this profile assumes the same.

Unknown. The measured climate comes from a lowland point at 273 m chosen only because Peru is the listed country.
