This photo is good enough! Very nice I think. I wonder how well accepted is the change of names for these genera formerly Masdevallia?

Whoops almost forgot. Here is the automated translation that I used. This is a combination from Bing & Google because some bits were better in one and some in the other.

"From the Latin polystictos, "with lots of dots" references the spots in their flowers. Plant native to the Andes, Ecuador and adjacent to the north of Peru at altitudes from 2000 to 2600 meters above sea level.

Extracted species of the genus Masdevallia in 2006 to form this new genre.

* Little plant that gave me a lot of work to photograph, it's time to get a better machine ...."
