Dracula sodiroi

Dracula sodiroi is a species of orchid. It is an epiphyte and grows in wet tropical areas of north-western and northern Ecuador.

The specific epithet of sodiroi refers to Luis Sodiro (1836–1909), who was an Italian Jesuit priest and a field botanist, who collected many plants in Ecuador.

It was first published in Selbyana vol.2 on page 197 in 1978.
