Range Description

Spatoglossum ecuadoreanum is an endemic species from the Galápagos Islands; first reported from Academy Bay, Santa Cruz (Taylor 1945: type locality; Wellington 1974). The species is also recorded from a number of other localities (Española: Gardner Bay; Floreana: Punta Cormorant; Fernandina: Punta Espinosa – all sites Wellington 1974) around the Archipelago (Taylor 1945, 1974 CDS), however, these identifications need to be verified (K.A. Miller and L. Garske pers. comm.).
