Pleurothallis archilarum

A Guatemalan Pleurothallis known from very little material. Like most of the genus, it is likely an epiphyte of humid forest at middle elevations. Grow it like other intermediate pleurothallids: shade, constant moisture, high humidity and moving air.

Where it grows wild

No wild records exist. This is inferred from the genus: Guatemalan Pleurothallis grow mostly on mossy branches in wet broadleaf and cloud forest.

No elevations are recorded. The modelled point is in the lowlands (about 350 m), but the genus in Guatemala is concentrated at roughly 1,000-2,500 m, so the plant is probably higher and cooler.
