Coleman, E. (1930), A new greenhood orchid. The Victorian Naturalist 46: 100, t. V. BHL [tax. nov.]
  • Type: "W.A. – Bunbury and Collie, Miss Iris Banks, July, 1929; Busselton, Rev. E. Bryant, 1928, and July, 1929. Col. B.T. Goadby, July, 1929."
  • Etymology: "The new species is both abundant and beautiful. For this reason, I think it should bear the name of Dr. R. S. Rogers, M.A., M.D., F.L.S., who has done such fine work on Australian orchids, and who has been so generous in assisting other workers in the same field, both in Victoria and the other States."

  • Lectotype: "Bunbury and Collie, Miss I. Banks, July, 1929; Busselton, E. Bryant, June 1928 and July 1929.; B.T. Goadby July 1929."
  • Text: There is one sheet at MEL 1002452 with all the above details except the locality Collie. It is now impossible to assign the specimens to the collectors and the whole sheet is therefore selected as Lectotype.
