Volume 119

Number 1295

September

In this issue’s downloads, Julian Shaw, the International Orchid Hybrid Registrar, examines orchid names that have become offensive, and the regulations that govern changing them, in his article Sense and Insensitivity – when a name offends. And Ong Poh Teck presents his incredible, close-up photographic evidence of Bulbophyllum patens being pollinated by the tiny Bactrocera fruit fly in Peninsular Malaysia.
