Description

Herminium aff. tibeticum X.H.Jin, Schuit. & Raskoti, PhytoKeys 79: 68, 2017

Specimen examined:— KACHIN. Putao District: 3960 m, 7 Jul 1931, Kingdon-Ward 9757 (BM).

Distribution:— Northern Myanmar (?) and southwestern China.

Notes:— Based on the petal and lip shape the specimen is close to H. tibeticum (B.B. Raskoti, pers. comm.), currently only known from southwestern China. It differs by being a smaller plant with longer sepals and a much shorter lip callus. One flower was here observed to be abnormal, with an extra theca formed in front of a petal.
