Maxillaria parviflora flowers in September in Florida and in November in Central America.
The Florida occurrence is based on a collection by Roger Hammer from a single host tree; other unconfirmed sightings have been made. The several large plants reported by Hammer, the occurrence in Cuba, and the presence of other widespread tropical species locally leaves little doubt of the identity and presence of this outlier in the flora.
The types of Scaphyglottis parviflora and Ornithidium confertum agree well with the Florida plant often recognized as Maxillaria conferta.

Camaridium vestitum: Brief Summary
(

)
fornecido por wikipedia EN
Camaridium vestitum, called purple tiger orchid, is a species of epiphytic orchids native to Florida, the West Indies and through Latin America from Mexico to Bolivia.
Camaridium vestitum has long been called Maxillaria parviflora including in Flora of North America. Recent molecular studies have indicated that Maxillaria should be split into several genera, so many species including this one have been renamed.
