With due respect for everyone i want to say somethig... i have seen that flora too and i know Picture of Habenaria marginata is labeled as H.hyneana...it is just printing mistake i was suppose tell sir about this but neither i am researcher,expert nor taxonomist so i have no authority to say anything so i kept quiet, but i wonder when people doubt on identification given by expert on the basis of flora ..why they do not think that there can be error or printing mistake in flora
