Lepanthes-genetaopophantica-2021-02-16***Determined to be Lepanthes nephridia, not Lepanthes genetaophantica (Jan 2022); this flower does not match the characteristics of L. genetaopophantica as well as it matches the L. nephridia photo by Hirtz in the IOSPE and Carl Luer's line drawing; the distinctive characteristic of L. nephridia is the pair of reniform lobes of the lip which fit this plant; in addition, there are multiple photos of L. nephridia including one by A.C. Hirtz in the orchidroots.com which closely match this plant.***

This is not L. genetoapophantica, but L. nephridia.

I believe this is actually Lepanthes nephridia.

L. genetoapopophantica is a validly published name - 2018 by Bogarin and Gravendeel in Molecular Phylogenetic Evolution 129:44 and the article is downloadable with pictures.
