Encyclia navarroi (Orchidaceae), a new species from Cuba

Encyclia navarroi Vale & Rojas (Orchidaceae) is described from western Cuba. This orchid thrives in coastal vegetation on the karstic terrains in the Pinar del Río and Artemisa provinces. It co-occurs locally with congeneric species. Encyclia navarroi can be easily recognized by its erose leaf margin, the not connivent and triangular lateral lobes of the labellum, and by the round central lobe with a basal papillose area.
