Help needed with Identification of a Dendrobium Sp.
I got this Dendrobium sp. from Viet Nam labeled as Den. schrautii but now after I have seen its flower it is a different species. It is definitely belonging to the Section Formosea (formerly known a Nigrohirsutae) and its vegetation and flowers closely resemble that of Den. longicornu. I found on the Viet Nam Creature Website a picture of a Dendrobium, which resembles mine, named Den. chapaense. I couldn't find any other reference for this species. I add three pictures of the plant and flowers. I'll appreciate your help with the identification of this Dendroium. Sorry, I forgot to post the pictures.Plant and flowersFlowersFlower closeup

I have an orchid that I believe is a dendrobium or a cuttleya...But I can't find out.... Could someone help me with this...?
Are there any identification keys that point out the difference..?

You may think that what I'm asking is stupid, but I've never been working with irchid taxonomy and the labels of the orchids don't write the genus....:-(

I checked the Baker & Baker book and it is a described species alright but one I've never heard of before. I checked my Baker & Baker book and says that D. molle has white to pale yellow flowers of about 1cm or so and covered with short hairs.
Is there anything in particular you wanted to know about the plant? I think you would check it's local conditions for tips on how to grow it. It is definitely warm growing according to the temperature table in the book.

Cheers...Steve

Dear Steve,
I have that plant from Timika (the Freeport Mining Area) which has just in flowering. Andre Schuiteman told me that the one is Dendrobium molle. I did not check in that book. I just hope that may be anyone knows about that one.

Regards.

Apparently there is/was such a Dendrobium in section Pedilonum but I have never heard of it and is probably called something else now. Have you checked other references such as the book on Dendrobiums by Charles and Margaret Baker which has a fairly comprehensive list of Dendrobium species.

Cheers...Steve

Does anyone knows about Dendrobium molle? I could not find that name in the list in this website.

Does anyone knows where I can access a list of all the abbreviations in Latin used by Taxonomists in describing a taxon.?

TIA

The sextion is easy: You have a Bublophyllum in sect. INtervallatae

Sadly your picture is a tad too small for my eyesight. And the orientation of the flower seems to be weird. COuld it be posiible you repost a larger and better oriented picture?

Nevertheless, I happen to know that Vermeulen and O'Byrne recently described a new Bulbophyllum sspecies from Sulawesi in the Special 75th Anniversary Issue of Malayan Orchid Review ( Vol 37/2003 pages 80-81).

As I am writting this I am comparing your photo with the photos they included and the line drawing and it really seems close if not similar ( only diference seems to be in the color of the lip as yours is darker)

The name of the new species is Bulbophyllum novaciae

Hope I was able to help.
