[OGD] Maxillaria

Hello All: I just had Maxillaria buchtienii awarded this weekend and there is some discussion that buchtienii is actually a synonym of Max. splendens. I have had one response back that indicates that these are indeed distinct species, but wanted some more feedback- Anyone? Thanks! Eric Sauer

[OGD] Maxillaria buchtienii

Since AOS bases its taxonomical calls on the World Checklist of the Monocotyledons kept by Kew, then your species is indeed Maxilaria splendens and not Maxillaria buchtienii. ( It seems that in this case the determination by Kew was made based on the Nomenclatural rule of priority.)
