Abstract

 A new species of Epidendrum, E. paruimense, and three additional species of Orchidaceae are reported for the flora of Guyana: Encyclia conchaechila, Epidendrum urichianum, and Masdevallia vargasii. A report of Baskervilla venezuelana from the Guianas was erroneusly based on a specimen unequivocally referable to Ponthieva ovatilabia.
