Along within this subject -
I remember a few years ago posting my Tuberolabium quisumbingii on a different forum. It was pointed out to me that the proper name for that one was now:
Parapteroceras quisumbingii ( accepted by Kew) I actually thought it was funny, the name reminded me of a Dinosaur.
Perhaps one day all this will be sorted out and the Orchids will be properly classified genetically. (Not like re-naming Iwanagaara to Jackfowlieara.... Rolling my eyes. )
