Dear Dalton and readers, I don't believe that Dendrobium lichenastrum or Dendrobium toressae have ever been formally transferred within the genus Dockrillia.
However, the genus Davejonesia was created in 2002 (described in "The Orchadian") by Mark A. Clements, to accommodate three species - D. lichenastrum (the type species) as well as D. aurantiacopurpurea and D. prenticei. In the same paper, Jones and Clements placed Dendrobium toressae into the monotypic genus Stilbophyllum (as Stilbophyllum toressae). This treatment has, up to now anyway, been largely ignored by horticulturalists, and not enjoyed the same level of acceptance as Dockrillia. ******************************************** David P.
