Eulophia stenopetala is a species of orchid endemic to Bhutan.[2] The only material on this species from Bhutan is the holotype specimen collected by William Griffith in Bhutan in 1838 and resides at the Kew Herbarium with catalogue number K000852991.[3] Another specimen without any information on its location is also available at the Naturalis Biodiversity Center with catalogue number U.1466607.[4] The plant is currently considered extinct as numerous attempts to find it in the type locality failed.[5]
