Paph. "Palawense" is not a new species, ... it is a "variety" of Paph.
philippinense with the petals nearly horizontal. Paph "palawense" is a
horticultural designation ... obviously your supplier was interested in
selling his flask rather then informing you properly. Paph. "palawense"
has nothing to do with Paph. stonei. (And it never had).
see Bream & Chiron, 2003 page 382
Sometimes I ask myself whether these people ever read books or articles
