Common Name Porsch's Stelis [Austrian Botanist in Brazil late 1800's]

An epiphyte that blooms on an axillary, racemose, many flowered inflorescence. Cited as a synonym of Stelis inaequisepala Hoehne ex Schltr. 1921 yet there are several visual differences sio I will leave them separate pending more information.
