Are you sure this one has not been verified?
ReplyDeleteCyrtochilum falcipetalum (syn. ionodon) 'Vicente', AM/AOS (80 points) awarded August 3, 2010 at the Sociedad Colombiana de Orquideologia Show appears published in AQ Plus.
It seems that verification was obtained.
the question is whether iodon is really a synonym of falcipetalum..so it is sort of a contested award.
