That is why a list of literature recommended by a "recognized taxonomist" would be helpful to all of us who like to know a little more about the subject.
Peter,
what do you expect ... you want a beginners list ...
OK here we go
Introducing Biology The Wold of Biology Plant Biology Woodland, Contemporary Systematics Richards, Breeding Systems Linne - Species Plantarum Martius - Blora Brasiliensis Hawkes - Encyclopedia of Cultivated orchids Bechtel Cribb & Launert - The Maual of Cultivated Orchid Species Heywood - Flowering Plants of the Wold Grant - Plant speciation Braem - Paphiopedilum Braem - Cattleya 1 Braem - Cattleya 2 Cribb - Paphiopedilum Cribb - Pleione Cribb - Cypripedium Veitch - A Manual of Orchidaceous Plants The Botanical Magazine The Botanical Register Linnea L'Illustration Horticole L"Horticulture Belge La Semaine horticole Flore des Serres Paxton's Flower Garden The Gardeners' Chronicle The Orchid Review The Orchid Digest L' Orchidophile Die Orchidee Australian Orchid Review All Pfitzer's works on Orchids All Reichenbach fil's works on orchids and all the orchid articles in other journals
when you are done with these ... let me know, then I will give you the follow-up list ...
it is not possible to give you a list for ans specific case ... you have to compile it yourself ... and if someone has not learned to do that, than that person should learn that first. You can't send a rocket to the moon if you don't know where the moon is.
