is a species that was poorly collected until the 21st century. Other than the type collection, it was just collected one other time in the 20th century by Matuda. It was then collected numerous times at La Cortadura on the slopes of Cofre de Perote by Gonzalo Castillo-Campos between 2005 and 2007. The species is most abundant in original oak cloud forest where it is in flower and fruit; although observed by the first author in secondary forest of
