Just read this on Wikipedia *"× Oncostele*, abbreviated *Ons.*, is a hybrid genus <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hybrid_name> of orchids <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orchid>, used for greges <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grex_(horticulture)> containing at least one ancestor species from the genera *Oncidium <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oncidium>* (*Onc.*) and *Rhynchostele <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rhynchostele>* (*Rst.*)" That fits perfectly with my interpretation of formation of names of nothogenera.
