Abstract

Salazar, G. A. (Departamento de Botánica, Instituto de Biología, Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México, Apartado Postal 70–367, 04510 México, D.F. México; gasc@servidor.unam.mx). A new species of Ponthieva (Orchidaceae, Cranichidinae) from Veracruz, Mexico. Brittonia 57: 252–254. 2005.— Ponthieva rinconii, a new orchid species from the foothills of the Sierra Madre Oriental in Veracruz, Mexico, is described and illustrated. It is similar in overall appearance to the wide-ranging upland species P. schaffneri, but differs from it in habitat preferences (tropical semi-evergreen forest at 650 m elevation), presence of a loose raceme, and three-lobed labellum with a basal cavity.
