Hi all, I have been informed that the photo that I have of Paphiopedilum insigne is not and may be of a hybrid. Does any one have a photo of the real P insigne. It really bothers me that I do not have a picture of the real species. IOSPE or www.orchidspecies.com has passed another milestone. I now have 7902 species in 702 genera. 8000 is just around the corner. I will be adding reference material over the next 2 months so expect lots more species information. I purchased close to 2000.00 in books at the WOC and was able to get Foldats 5 vol Venezuela set, Summerhayes East africa 2 volumes, Popes Flora zambesiaca, A Corybas monograph, The Ethiopian field guide, Orcids of Samoa, Orchids of Vanuatu, Orchidaceae Brasilensis vol 2, Orchids of Mt Kinabalu, Orchids of Ceylon, Orchids of the Dominican Republic, Angraecoid orchids, Orchids of Madagascar Dupuy, Orchideen von Java J.J.Sm, and all of Cribbs new books on Cyps, Paphs and Cymbidium. Because of the expenditure I am in need of new funds so if your subscription has run out please renew or if you use the site and you have not subscribed please consider doing so. I have a set of Dunstervilles Orchids of Venezuela 5 vol set aside at 600.00, Hoehne's Brazilian flora and many other's awaiting purchase. Thanks for your time Jay Pfahl
