Formerly Masdevallia chontalensis (still that if you don't accept Dr. Luer's new classifications), this small species is a real jewel. It is from Nicaragua and is less than 6 cm tall with bloom that appear on short spikes just above the foliage. It almost always has two flowers per spike and the flowers, though small are very colorful. It is named for Chonal County in Nicaragua, one of its native habitats.
