Showing Dendrobium johannis
Orchidaceae Juss.
Dendrobium johannis Rchb.f. , legitimate, scientific
Bateman, J. (1865), New Plants. The Gardeners' Chronicle and Agricultural Gazette 1865: 890 BHL [tax. nov.]
  • Type: "found in North Australia by Mr. John G. Veitch ... some of them have already flowered in the King's Road."
  • Etymology: "Prof. Reichenbach being anxious to connect in some way the name of Mr. John G. Veitch with that of a plant which forms one of his more remarkable discoveries, and being unable to call it Dendrobium Veitchianum, because that name had long since been given by Dr. Lindley to another species of the genus discovered by Lobb, hit upon the ingenious device of making his Christian name the passport to immortality in the present instance. Certainly no one ever laboured harder in the cause of science or deserved the compliment better than the adventurous young traveller, who has already added so many new things to our collections, and who, we sincerely hope, may be spared to enrich them still more."
  • Comment: Since both the name and description are attributed by Bateman to "Rchb. fil." [i.e. H.G.Reichenbach], authorship of this name is accepted as ascribed under ICN Art. 46.2 (Melbourne Code, 2012).
