Notes — 1. An Oberonia that did not match any species previously recorded for Thailand was collected in 2011 in the northern part of the country, during a field trip with participation of the first author. The material was identified as O. evrardii based on comparison with the protologue and with the holotype in P. We later realized that two earlier collected specimens (one from the same area, one from south-western Thailand) also belong to this species.

2. Oberonia evrardii is here newly recorded for Myanmar, based on a previously misidentified herbarium specimen.
