Default What is a Dendrobium?

Did a quick search online by just placeing the names Jones and clements and
genus dendrobium in the google search engine. Yeilded some interesting
stuff. There is a page on OrcidSafari wayyyy at the bottom, with a
discussion of dockrillia Another link came up with Clements, M. A. and
Jones, D. L. 1997. Cannaeorchis, a new genus of Dendrobiinae (Orchidaceae)
for the taxon previously known as Dendrobium Sw. sect. Macrocladium Schltr.
Lasianthera 1(3): 132-147.

Comber, J. B. and Wood, J. J. 1999. Dendrobium ayubii, a new member of
section Formosae from Sumatra. Orchid Rev. 107(1226): 89-91.

How widely accepted is Jones and Clements revision? Even the removal of

some
Dends into Dockrilla seems to be sort of unaccepted.

Does anyone subscribe to The Orchadian? With Jones and
Clements' recent revision of the genus Dendrobium does
anyone know which species are still Dendrobiums? Am I
correct in thinking the genus now contains only those
species formerly classed in the section Dendrobium ie nobile
and its relatives? Does anyone know if the revision has been
formally published yet?
