Luer, C.A. 1995. New species of Lepanthes (Orchidaceae) from Costa Rica. Lindleyana 10(3) 133—173.

Abstract. The following 24 new species of Lepanthes are reported in preparation for the Handbook of the Flora of Costa Rica. Nineteen of the species had been collected around 1867 by Endrés, many of which he had illustrated and described in preparation for publication. When a name was indicated by him, the name has been retained. Many of the present illustrations have been made from hundred-year-old flowers hydrated in concentrated ammonia solution.
