Dr Pankaj All of us in this group understand that you have done great work during this long schedule of Orchidaceae. It was amazing that you answered all the queries in additions to validating identities or suggesting correct IDs. Not only this but the nomenclature was also updated for many species. I am personally much benefited by getting my collection (though a very small) correctly identified. Even more, have many orchids in mind now, obviously based on your uploads, to look in future. This first hand knowledge about orchids can not be earned elsewhere. I must salute your expertise, but more importantly, your dedication to this episode of Orchidaceae, since, as I understand, a lot of time was required for it after completing your routine works of present assignment. I think we should not worry much for the IDs of hybrids. Not only the orchids but other cultivated taxa too have numerous hybrids or varieties (cultivars) which are difficult to identify and require specialized expertise. Great task accomplished, thanks to you and all others who participated and enjoyed on this forum. DSRawat Pantnagar
