Coelogyne lecongkietii (C. sect. Panisea) was found in Lac Duong District, Lam Dong Province, southern
Vietnam (Da Lat Paleau, Central Highlands), and is described here as a new species for science. It resembles C.
sagittata in having the backward pointed side-lobes of the lip, but strongly differs in the smaller flower, shorter
side-lobes, and distinct, rounded column wings. This paper presents a standard taxonomic description of the new
species including illustrations and data on its habitat and phenology.
