Comments:
- Quesnelia conquistensis grows as a terrestrial or epiphyte, in partially shaded sites inside a small disturbed fragment of Atlantic Forest, about 700 m elevation, in the neighborhood of Vitória da Conquista, which inspired the name chosen for it. Since it is only known from the type population, there is no data to establish its current conservation status. However, considering it came from a region where the typical vegetation was vastly destroyed, and only small disturbed fragments remain, it is possibly a critically endangered species. —See Leme 2008a p. 58(6): 269-271
