    1. Reviewed by Joseph Dougherty    Apr 11, 2002

    Action: changed name from "Brassavola glauca" to "Rhyncholaelia glauca "

    Reviewer's comments:
         "The genus Rhyncholaelia was created by the removal of two species from Brassavola because they differ in their Cattleya-like psuedobulbs and leaf growth, and in differences in the flower structure. They are epiphytes from Central America and the Caribbean.
