Default They're all cattleyas now

Oops or brassavola... well maybe I shouldn't have said "everything". He
moved what he moved, *G*.

In case you didn't see this on the OGD, Cassio van den Berg moved
everything but Rhyncholaelia, Guarianthe and the Mexican Laelias into
Cattleya. http://www.neodiversity.org/articles/neod3102.pdf or if that
doesn't work then try http://www.neodiversity.org/latestarticles.html

I asked about L. tenebrosa and got the answer that he puts tenebrosa and
lobata etc as varieties of purpurata.

I understand he'll be lumping those debatable epidendrums early next year.

On a different subject I noticed 'Neodiversity' is an electronic
publication that will send printed papers to libraries etc but who
basically use electronic means to disseminate their articles...I thought
someone one got in trouble for using an electronic publication to publish
their work.... was it Braeme? or the kovachii mess? That a hard copy had
to be made......? But what do I know. Maybe the few hard copies they send
to whatever libraries they use is sufficent for the taxonomy gods. I
could be completely misremembering.
