Holcoglossum subulifolium (Rchb.f.) Christenson

Lam Dong Province, Da Lat Town area, Tia Stream (suối Tía), 18 January 2020, Truong Ba Vuong, Ngo Quang Dang, BV 486.

Note. The species usually pure white, but this specimen has tint purple on tepals. Spur short, broadly saccate, 2 pairs of callus (4 calli) at base. Epichile base with short claw, margin epichile irregular laciniate. Curious about the Pollinaria: the pollinaria after take out of the column will be erect and then the stipe will be strongly curved.
