_D.occidentalis_*_nitidula_s.l._
The second parent is the variant of _D.nitidula_ considered by LOWRIE (&
MARCHANT?) to represent what was described as _D.omissa_ by DIELS. However,
it is *most unlikely* that the plant described and depicted by LOWRIE
should be the same as that described by DIELS (cf. a note by CHEEK in a
recent issue of CPN). Thus, there is actually *no* valid name at whatever
rank for this taxon at the moment.
>Pinguicula sp. 'species nova No. 4'
In SLACK's book: _P.rotundiflora_
SLACK thought that his plant (depicted in his book) was the same as that
one cultivated by WEINER under this "name". Which was *not* the case,
however: WEINER's plant was _P.reticulata_.
Do you see why I do not like this kind of "naming"?
Kind regards
