Werner, I like both of them. 👍 With regard to the Paph. josianae I see so many differences to Paph. concolor so in my eyes the species status should be correct. But KEW Science and O. Gruss (in his newly published book) list it as Paph. concolor var. longipetalum.

Yes, I also like both of them. ❤️ I don`t know when Olaf Gruss has written the book, but last year I read that it is renamed P. josianae. So, it should be a species. Research Gate has made a study of it and says that there are differences in the staminodium, and Kew has accepted that name too.
