Nik,
It does appear that the same species was named twice by different people, as
the location data, description, collector etc.. are very similar. Once in
Die Orchidee 54 (2):220-224 by Perner & Dang and again in Orchids 73
(2):134-136 by Averyanov.
If you still need the scans I can send them to you.

Subject: [OGD] Dendrobium tuananhii or trantuanii?
Hi all,
Does anybody know which is the valid name of this newly
discovered Vietnamese species. I have Orchids (Feb. 2004)
magazine which published the description of this species as
Den. tuananhiii Averyanov but I were told it was also published
in Orchidee as Den trantuanii. I do not have Orchidee's
publication to refer to and I would be very grateful if somebody
would be kind enough to e-mail me a scan.
RHS apparently accepted Den trantuanii as the valid name in
their International Orchid Register so is it because Orchidee
publication was made at an earlier date?
Thanks for any insight.
Nik
