Lepanthes-cerambyx-Entreflores-2019-09-16***Unable to make a positive identification (Nov 2020); Lepanthes cerambyx has uniquely shaped, upright petals; the species was named, the "Horned Beetle" Lepanthes due to the shape of the petals (somewhat shaped like moose antlers); in this plant the upper half of the petals appear to be folded over, which is inconsistent with L. cerambyx, but this may have been caused by environmental issues, such as low humidity; overall, the photos lack the resolution and details needed for a positive identification of the species.***
