RemarksFlower in AMES Spirit Collection jar No.733; the jar 733 is under Lankester 516 in the index of the list of AMES spirit collection, this seens to be an error of Ames because Lankester 516 correspond to a specimen of Platysteles stenostachya which has not flower in spirit. The flower in AMES spirit collection jar 733 corresponds to the specimen of Lankester 517 of Epidendrum pallens
