Description
Habitat
Forêts denses humides (F)
Described as an endemic orchid of New Caledonia, Dendrobium minutiflorum has never been observed and collected since the first and unique collection made by Sarasin in 1912. On the basis of botanical description (type destroyed during second world war), D. minutiflorum has never been found again. According to experts, D. minitiflorum could be a variety of Dendrobium pectinatum with little flowers. D. minutiflorum qualifies thus as Data Deficient.
