Notes
[edit]- ^ The correct name for this species is Amischotolype mollissima (Blume) Hassk.
- ^ This name is illegitimate; the correct name is Siderasis fuscata (Lodd.) H.E.Moore.
- ^ This name was proposed as a replacement for Ule's own Chamaeanthus (Verh. Bot. Vereins Prov. Brandenburg 50:71, 1909, "1908"), which was predated by Chamaeanthus J.J.Sm. (Orch. Jav.:552, 1905), but the replacement Uleopsis had been published by Friedrich Karl Georg Fedde in the meantime (Just's Bot. Jahresber. 37(2):77, 1911, "1909" ). The correct name is Uleopsis, but is not in current use.
- ^ The currently used name for this species is Geogenanthus poeppigii (Miq.) Faden; the correct, but yet unpublished combination would be Uleopsis poeppigii.
- ^ A synonym of Tinantia erecta (Jacq.) Fenzl.
- ^ This species is currently treated as a synonym of Murdannia edulis (Stokes) Faden.
- ^ The correct name for this species is Anthericopsis sepalosa (C.B.Clarke) Engl.
- ^ Now a synonym of Tricarpelema giganteum (Hassk.) H.Hara.
- ^ This species' correct name is Rhopalephora micrantha (Vahl) Faden.
