content: Label, "It is also found in Sapello Cañon & John's Cañon". Protologue, "Sapello Canyon, Las Vegas Range, N.M., about 8000 ft. (Canadian Zone); in full flower in June. Many specimens examined. The type will be placed in U.S. National Museum." Presumably original material but dubiously a type. No material has been found at US that matches the collection(s) cited in the protologue, but several other collections are probably paratypes (syntypes?). As annotated by J.T. Atwood (1984), "Apparently the type of Cypripedium veganum Cockerell & Barker". As annotated by M.A. Case (1993), "Not a type. No specimens were cited in Cockerell & Barker."
