wow, nice and very cute.

I thought barbigerum var lo9ckianum = coccineum.. so are they different and how come coccineum is being subsumed into barbigerum?

 

[KyushuCalanthe]

The colors really are nice...

Dear Bench,
Paph. coccineum was described at first. But Leonid Averyanov did not accept this description as regular, so he described the same as Paph. barbigerum var. lockianum.
Mr. Cavestro changed the level of Paph. coccineum and makes the new combination as Paph. barbigerum var. coccineum.
Nowerdays Leonid also follows this way.

Best greetings

Olaf
