Microchilus dressleri, a new name for campanensis Kolan. ()

A large number of studies on the Neotropical orchid genus Microchilus Presl (1827: 94) resulted in over 130 new specific epithets within this taxon since 2002 (eg. Ormerod 2002, 2005, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2013). The name of a new species described in 2014 based on material collected in Panama was identical with the previously published Microchilus campanensis Ormerod (2009: 120). A new name for Microchilus campanensis Kolanowska (2014: 185) is hereby proposed.

Basionym: Microchilus campanensis Kolanowska (2014: 185). Type:—PANAMA. Panamá: Distrito de Capira, Cerro Campańa, trocha desde el mirador a la cima, 700–1000 m, 8°41′N, 79°55′W, 12 January 1995, Galdames 1877 & Guerrera (Holotype: PMA!).
