While the article is nice, there is this photo that really gets me
irritated. Why must people go to these places and then have a picture
taken of them holding a rare plant they tore out of the ground? Yep,
there's the author with a nice _H.ionasii_, his trophy kill for the
safari. Why couldn't he have been kneeling down by some lovely plants
still growing? Commune vs. conquest. Hmmph!
Jan, this guy lists the following taxa
_H.nutans_
_H.minor_
_H.minor f. laevis_
_H.ionasii_
_H.heterodoxa var. heterodoxa_
_H.heterodoxa var. heterodoxa f. glabella_
_H.heterodoxa var. exappendiculata_
_H.heterodoxa var. exappendiculata f. glabella_
_H.tatei var. tatei_
_H.tatei var. tatei f. macdonaldae_
_H.tatei var. tatei f. tyleri_
_H.tatei var. neblinae_
_H.tatei var. neblinae f. parva_
Being something of a lumper in philosophy, I have a certain distaste
for all these names. Are the various forms and varieties even published?
