Odontochilus putaoensis is similar to O. duplex, but can be easily distinguished from the latter by having a light yellow lip composed of a bisaccate hypochile with a small, erect, blade-like and emarginate callus within each sac, a mesochile with a pair of dentate-pectinate flanges and bilobed epichile with a pair of widely diverging lobes that are erect and concave.	en	Aung, Ye Lwin, Mu, Aye Thin, Jin, Xiaohua (2018): Odontochilus putaoensis (Cranichideae, Orchidaceae), a new species from Myanmar.

D03A3ABAD8209BD7771BC78FEF4098B4.taxon	distribution	Distribution and habitat. Odontochilus putaoensis grows in shaded and damp humus in humid, broad-leaved, evergreen forest, at an elevation of about 1500 - 2000 m.
