Remarks
doi:10.11646/phytotaxa.574.1.6 Etymology: the specific epithet is from the Latin 'claustralis', that encloses or that serves as a barrier. The authors state that they use the genitive noun on purpose. In reference to the prominent calli that lean towards each other after pollination or the loss of the pollinium, closing the entrance to the nectary and thus, presumably avoiding another pollination event.
