Last night Ivan, from Ecuagenera, gave a talk to my local orchid society. He showed a picture of a recently discovered new Phrag species, I got the impression that it hasn't been discribed yet. They are planning on naming it Phrag andreetta after the priest who inspired them to begin Ecuagenera. The plant looked like schlimii, but has much less pink. This might be the white paphs that people are talking about. Know one asked how big the plant or flowers are. By the time the talk was over, I had forgotten about it.

I will try to find out more next week. I will be spending the winter working at ecuagenera.
