Maxillaria tenuifolia

[SlipperFan]

Someone posted recently on the orchid digest that Maxillaria tenuifolia is now Maxillariella tenuifolia. They also gave a reference that was new to me for finding name changes:

Kew Checklist of Monocotyledons

Type in a genus and species in the search box, and it will give you the current name. Helpful for us who don't have Orchid Wiz.

A Maxillaria by any other name would smell as sweet .........

Too many too fast name changes.

Hmm, maybe if I tell mine it has a new name it will have more than one bloom next time.

Thanks for the heads-up Dot.

taxologists are obviously soooooo overworked!

Once you pass 50 you don't have to accept name-changes ANYMORE!
