Luisia-psyche-2023-02-18 *SITF confirms that this plant is Luisia psyche (Aug 2023).

Identification is based on the sepal and petal shape of the flower, the shape of the lip and a minute bi-lobed apex with a tiny tooth in the middle. This flower is described as having an "unpleasant, cheesy odor" and the description in the IOSPE notes L. psyche has 1-2 fowl smelling flowers held close to the leaf axis. This plant matches the photo by O'Byrne in the IOSPE and other supporting photos can be found in the OW and the orchidroots.com.
