Common Name Endres' Scaphosepalum [German Orchid Collector Central America 1800/1900's]

Found in Costa Rico and Panama in shady moist cloud forest at elevations of 1100 to 1500? meters as as warm growing epiphyte, said to be a synonym of Scaphosepalum anchoriferum but I can see many differences, may still be a synonym though as I have not disected the flowers.
