  • Two new species and new records of Platystele (Pleurothallidinae: Orchidaceae) from Los Cedros Reserve in Ecuador Luis E. Baquero R. Denisse Galarza Verkovitch Biología Carchi Orchidaceae sympatric species Platystele decouxii especies simpátricas Two new species of Platystele were discovered at the orchid-rich forest of Los Cedros Reserve at North-west Ecuador. Many species of orchids grow in these forests and some endemic to it. Platystele cedriensis is similar to P. rhinocera from which it differs in the horizontal to descending inflorescence and the three-veined dorsal sepal. Platystele decouxii presents flowers with a unique heart-shaped lip with a heart-shape depression in the blade of the lip. We warn that on-going mining activities and concessions put in risk these and other endemic species from Los Cedros Reserve. 2019 artículo científico 1409-3871 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=44366682002 https://www.redalyc.org/journal/443/44366682002/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/443/44366682002/html/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/443/44366682002/44366682002.epub https://www.redalyc.org/journal/443/44366682002/movil 10.15517/lank.v19i1.36900 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=443 Lankesteriana International Journal on Orchidology application/pdf Universidad de Costa Rica Lankesteriana International Journal on Orchidology (Costa Rica) Num.1 Vol.19
