Found in Ecuador in montane forests as a medium sized, warm to cool growing epiphtye with a filiformis, flexuous, glabrous ramicaul carrying a single apical, erect, lanceolate-ligulate, abtuse, narrowly subpetilate base leaf that blooms on a single, ascending, laxly 4 to 7 flowered inflorescence with cucullate-ovate, shortly acuminate floral bracts

This species should be Pleurothallis pensilis to fit within the systematics that I am using but has not been described as such.
