SITF has determined this plant to be Encyclia viridiflora (Jul 2025). This plant was submitted as Encyclia marxiana; however, Kew POWO lists E. marxiana as synonymous with E. viridiflora. The dense panicle, not much longer than the leaves, and the haphazard arrangement of the flowers fits E. viridiflora, as does the shape of the lip. The description of E. marxiana (E. viridiflora) Campacci can be found at: https://scuticaria.com/botanica/Encyclia%20Marxiana.pdf. The IOSPE has the type drawing by Campacci and a photo of Encyclia marxiana which match this plant.

Finding

SITF confirms this plant as Phragmipedium warszewiczianum (Jul 2025). This plant matches the species. The subspecies var. wallisii is an old remnant from splitting the P. caudatum group, and used to be P. caudatum var wallisii. The variety wallisii is now considered by Kew POWO to be synonymous with the species. The correct name is simply Phragmipedium warszewiczianum.

Finding

SITF confirms this plant as Nervilia plicata (Jul 2025). The leaf photos and measurements match that of Nervilia plicata. The flower form and leaf veins are a good match for Nervilia plicata photos found in the orchidroots.com. The leaf color and flower color are variable as shown on the orchidroots photos. This cultivar is much lighter in color than most of the photos. The veins and numerous hairs which cover the leaf surface are a good match to the species. This plant also matches the illustrated drawing of N. dallachyana from the Orchids of Far-Northeastern Queensland by Lewis Roberts as seen in the OW.

Finding

SITF confirms this plant as Phalaenopsis stobartiana (Jul 2025). The flowers are slightly small and the inflorescence is a little short, but unbranched in agreement with Baker & Baker's description in the OW. Veins in the sepals and petals agree with the photos in the IOSPE and in orchidroots. The flower form is exceptional. The species is somewhat variable in color, but the color of this cultivar appears quite common. This was submitted to SITF to validate the species in the OP, even though there were several previous awards to this species, since none of the previous awards were validated by SITF or a qualified taxonomist.

Finding

SITF confirms this plant as Acianthera brunnescens (Jun 2025). Thanks to Franco Pupulin who identified this plant as Acianthera brunnescens on site. POWO differs from the IOSPE in that the IOSPE has A. brunnescens as synonymous with Pleurothallis lojae, where as POWO has A. brunnescens as synonymous with Pleurothallis brunnescens Schltr and lists P. lojae as synonymous with Acianthera lojae. SITF agrees with POWO.

Finding

SITF confirms this plant as Dracula morleyi (Jun 2025). This plant matches Luer and Dalstrom's drawing and description of Dracula morleyi in the Icones Pleurothallidarum. Also, it matches photos in several references: Harding's photo in the OW, an excellent photo in the IOSPE and photos in the orchidroots.com.
