twitcher said:but borisii is a recognized subspecies of ciliosum and is noted for its long cilia. I have that one from last year on a trade. I think that Boresii and borisii are just the same form, one with a misspelled name. It wouldn't make sense for someone to name two varieties with names that similar, especially when it is a relatively rare species with limited varieties compared to some of the others.


I agree, everything I have read on this points to what twit says in above quote. Some times it is 'Boresii' or similar spelling, and some times labeled as S. boresii. Sure does get confusing. Confused
