"Phragmipedium anguloi is obviously closely related to Phragmipedium andreettae, from which it differs in three major characteristics: (1) The plants of P. anguloi are much more compact; (2) The staminode morphology is very different; and (3) The pouch morphology is different, showing very distinct and well-developed fenestrations. From Phragmipedium schlimii and Phragmipedium fischeri , P. anguloi differs by (a) the distinct pouch morphology (elongated versus calceolate); and (b) the clearly unique staminodal morphology."
