Three species of Orchidaceae are described as new to science: a Telipogon and a Lankesterella from the Dominican Republic and an Encyclia from Cuba. Telipogon niri is based on material collected by Donald Dod from the Cordillera Central A rare species, T. niri was previously recognized as Stellilabium minutiflorum (Kraenzl.) Garay, a distinct species from Central America. The generic name has changed due to unequivocal molecular evidence offered by Norris Williams, and the specific epithet honors Dr. Mark Nir, an avid student of Caribbean orchids. Lankesterella glandula is also based on material collected by Dod from the Cordillera Central. Thus far known only from the type collection, it is the second representative of the genus in Hispaniola. Encyclia monteverdensis is described from 19th century Charles Wright collections from Monte Verde, Cuba. The combination, Dendrophylax filiformis (Sw.) Carlsward & Whitten, suffers as a later homonym and is replaced by the next available name in the new combination Dendrophylax mon- teverdi (Rchb. f.) Ackerman & Nir. Cyclopogon miradorensis Schltr. is reported for the island of Dominica; Cranichis ricartii Ackerman is noted for the island of Guadeloupe; Cranichis ovata Wickstr. and Psilochilus macrophyllus (Lindl.) Ames are noted for Montserrat; and Trinidad is another locality for C. ovata. In addi- tion, Eurystyles domingensis Dod and two Malaxis species are added to the Cuban flora: M. apiculata Dod and M. hispaniolae (Schltr.) L.O. Williams. RESUMEN. Tres especies de Orchidaceae se describen como nuevas para la ciencia: un Telipogon y una Lankesterella de Republica Dominicana y una Encyclia de Cuba. Telipogon niri se basa en material recolec- tado por Donald Dod en la Cordillera Central. Una especie rara, T. niri habia sido determinada como Stellilabium minutiflorum (Kraenzl.) Garay, una especie distinta de Centro America. El nombre del genero ha cambiado debido a la evidencia molecular inequivoca presentada por Norris Williams, y el epiteto especi- fico honra al Dr. Mark Nir, un avido estudioso de las orquideas del Caribe. Lankesterella glandula se basa tambien en material recolectado por Dod en la Cordillera Central. Hasta ahora se conoce solamente el ejem- plar tipo, y es el segundo representante del genero en la Isla Espanola. Encyclia monteverdensis se describe de ejemplares de Charles Wright recolectados en el siglo XIX en Monte Verde, Cuba. La combinacion Dendrophylax filiformis (Sw.) Carlsward & Whitten es un homonimo posterior y se reemplaza por el proxi- mo nombre disponible en la nueva combinacion Dendrophylax monteverdi (Rchb. f.) Ackerman & Nir. Cyclopogon miradorensis Schltr. se registra en la isla Dominica; Cranichis ricartii Ackerman en la isla Guadalupe; Cranichis ovata Wickstr. y Psilochilus macrophyllus (Lindl.) Ames en Montserrat, y Trinidad es otra localidad de C. ovata. Ademas, Eurystyles domingensis Dod y dos especies de Malaxis se anaden a la flora de Cuba: M. apiculata Dod y M. hispaniolae (Schltr.) L.O. Williams.
