Pleurothallis arachnopsis

An obscure Pleurothallis recorded only from Guyana, with almost no published growing information. Care is generalised from Guianan pleurothallids: shaded, very humid and evenly moist, intermediate to warm unless it turns out to come from the highlands.

Where it grows wild

No wild records; Guyanese Pleurothallis grow as small epiphytes on mossy branches in humid forest, from the lowlands up to the Pakaraima highlands.

Unrecorded; the 300 m climate point is a regional centroid and the true site could be much higher.
