Paph. baccanum

[eggshells]

Another barbata that has large leaves. This clone I think is almost 18-20" in leaf span.

Is this a species?? Looks acmodontum-ish with the pointed lip.
Very nice flower!

I believe this is synonymous with Paph. schoseri.

Nice.

That's a very fancy Paph. The colors and form are wonderful.

A new one for me.
Nice photography.

I believe this is synonymous with Paph. schoseri.

That is correct. This name was proposed for a new species, by Schoser, at a World Orchid Conference in 1978 but never followed up with a valid publication. Ultimately it was formally named for him in 1988.

Granted it is a named species but I have to agree, very acmodontum with a sublaeve shape.

 

[eggshells]

Yes it is synonymous to Paph. schosceri.
