Proposed merger

[edit]

I propose that the article Bulbophyllum bowkettiae be merged into this article as the orchid has now been reclassified as Serpenticaulis bowkettiae.

For details, see: Clements, M.A. & Jones, D.L. (2002) "Nomenclatural changes in the Australian and New Zealand Bulbophyllinae and Eriinae (Orchidaceae). The Orchadian 13(11): 500. [comb. nov.], and Jones, David L. (2006). A complete Guide to Native Orchids of Australia, including the island territories. New Holland Publishers, Frenchs Forest, N.S.W. 2086 Australia. ISBN 1 877069 12 4. Sincerely, John Hill (talk) 00:16, 17 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The move to Serpenticaulis bowkettiae has not been accepted by the World Checklist of Selected Plant Families which lists Serpenticaulis as a synonym of Bulbophyllum.[1]
