Juraj Kojš completes his three-part series on the color forms of Cattleya violacea with a thorough treatment of the semialba and semialba flamea color groups. Jim Cootes continues his series on the genus Dendrobium with Part 13: Dendrobium section Oxyglossum. This section comprises some of the most beautiful, albeit miniature, species in the entire genus. The article is lavishly illustrated and covers the most popular species in the section. Rounding out our features this month, Tere Camacho introduces us to the species of leafless Dendrophylax native to Cuba.
