This is a newly described species (2003) recently found in the State of Alagoas, Brazil. It has many similarities with Sophronitis cernua, but the plant is smaller and so are its flowers. The color also seems to be redder than in cernua. To have an idea of this plant's size it is in a 1-inch wide pot.
