Maxillaria aurorae) - rare botanical species, which can be found in Colombia and Peru on rocky slopes, in mountain forests at altitudes of approximately 320 to 1000 meters as a medium-sized epiphyte, or occasionally as terrestrial.

It blooms more frequently in winter and spring, having an erect, basal inflorescence, 10 to 12.5 cm long, with a single flower, which appears on a mature pseudobulb and is covered at the base by 3 tubular, acuminate bracts. The flowers are fragrant.
