Your photos

[edit]

Hello, Dalton Holland Baptista, gratulation for your wonderful pictures of rare orchids. Greetings. Orchi (talk) 23:35, 22 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Dear Dalton, thanks for your infos on my page. Next week I will ask some questions to you. I think we have a simular opinion to KEW. Cheers. Orchi (talk) 19:52, 3 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Identification of Quekettia-specs from Suriname

[edit]

Hello, Dalton Holland Baptista, thanks for your interest in my photographs of Quekettia-specs in Commons-category Unidentified Quekettia. As a result of your opinion I looked into the genus again, and also consulted some more of my old slides. I came to these findings:

  • According to the CHECKLIST OF THE PLANTS OF THE GUIANAS there are 3 species of Quekettia in Suriname:

Quekettia microscopica Lindl. [GU SU FG]
Quekettia papillosa Garay [SU]
Quekettia vermeuleniana R.O. Determann [GU SU]
(source: CHECKLIST OF THE PLANTS OF THE GUIANAS 2nd edition, Washington, 1997, page 160, available on Internet).

  • The name you suggested for the yellow-flowered Quekettia, Stictophyllorchis pygmaea, is an accepted name in the World Checklist of selected plant families from Kew, I copy:

" Stictophyllorchis pygmaea (Cogn.) Dodson & Carnevali, Lindleyana 8: 101 (1993). This name is accepted. Distribution: Trinidad, Venezuela to Ecuador 81 TRT 82 VEN 83 ECU 84 BZN " This sp. seems to be not endemic to Suriname.

  • In "Orchids of Suriname", by Drs M.C.M. Werkhoven, Paramaribo 1986, 2 Quekettia-species are mentioned:

1. Quekettia papillosa: "..Leaves terete...Inflorescence erect, loosely branched...Flowers pale yellow... " (page 217, photo on page 199).
2. Quekettia vermeuleniana: "...Leaves compressed, sulcate...Inflorescence...one- to two-flowered...Sepals white, petals greenish yellow with pink margins.." (page 218)

It seems reasonable to me to assume that my photographs of the "yellow-flowered Q." is Q. papillosa, and the "white-flowered" is Q. vermeuliana (although in my photos the colour of the petals seems to be white).


I hope that you will find the time to look into this, and send me your opinion. Muito obrigado!!

Friendly greetings, Maarten Sepp (talk) 14:07, 25 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Quekettia specs, Caluera surinamensis, Habenaria, Batemannia colleyi

[edit]

Dear Dalton,

Thanks for your reply om the Quekettia-question, I have made some changes in Commons according to your (and my) opinion.

As regards Caluera surinamensis: I have never seen it. I looked it up, it is named by Ronald Determann, in 1983, and according to Orchids of Suriname by Ms. Werkhoven it's "rare in forests at 400-500 m. altitude"(page 91). Maybe it was collected in the plant collecting expedition in the Wilhelmina mountains in central Suriname, Ms. Werkhoven and mr. Determann took part in that expedition in '81. I left Suriname in the beginning of 1983, all my slides are from 1972-1982.

I'm really glad you appreciate my photographs, they were lying around for 25 years but now they are used again, gives me real pleasure!

Two more questions for you: in category "Unidentified Habenaria" (http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Unidentified_Habenaria) I have put photos of 2 kinds of Habenaria, spec. 1 is a plant from savannas (if I remember well I collected it in French Guiana), spec. 2 is a rather large plant from wet places and swamps, not uncommon. Any suggestions about names?

On the page about Batemania_colleyi (http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Batemania_colleyi) I have put a small question (my photos and the botanical drawings don't seem to match). Maybe you can give me some clue about that one too!

Thanks for your time and interest!

Maarten

Answers and questions

[edit]

Dear Dalton, unfortunately some time has gone, but now my promised proposal. I think, you decide about the right name of Genera and Species. If you know new names, let us link the actuell accepted name by "redirect". For example I used this way in the Genus Cattleya also. Both names are present and the by KEW accepted name is written with bold letters.

A little note to your last comment: Besides you are very good experts in orchids in the Netherlands "User:Johan N", in Spain "User:MILEPRI" and in the german WP "User:Dietzel".

OK I have been avoiding to deal with these confusing genera and will try do be the most neural as possible when dealing with them. It is good that there are more people dealing with orchids so we can get to a consensus and my mistakes will be corrected.

And now some further questions: What shall I do with your images of Scaphyglottis brasiliensis and Acianthera aurantiaca?

Again, thank you for your help and correction here. My text was based on Dressler's of 2004 and it has been corrected now. It is perfectly right to call it Scaphyglottis reflexa, I corrected Scaphyglottis page in Portuguese WP already.
Please put Acianthera aurantiaca under Pleurothallis aurantiaca Barb.Rodr., Gen. Spec. Orchid. 1: 10 (1877)., for this name is not published yet, we can move it later, after it is published.

For today the last request: Can you have a look to Category:Unidentified Orchidaceae. Is the Cattleya a cultivar or a Species?, and since long time the following plant is unidentified: Category:Unidentified Catasetum. Can you help? Cheers. Orchi (talk) 16:43, 3 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I have no idea about the Cattleya, If I knew it is natural I might risk something but we don't even know what it is, I would place it under cultivars, but that is just a guess.
Yes, THAT CATASETUM! it is bothering me at the front page in Orquídea page of pt.wp!! I have no idea either, looks like it is a female flower of something. Anyway I am no expert on Catasetum species.
Sorry if I wasn't of much help today, ha!
PS: Other thing, Norris Williams and Mark Whitten published a revision of Maxillaria in 2007. I will follow their names and because Kew is not up-to-date, you will find all publication data in my website at Maxillaria new names and genera in Orchidstudium. Please whenever something seems wrong, just let me know. Cheers Dalton (talk) 17:40, 3 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Greetings

[edit]

Dear Dalton, glad to see you again here. I hope, that I can get your help for classification of some of our faverite plants in the next year. Maarten Sepp is very busy in illustrations of old (orchid) books. I believe the orchids become a good part of Commons. Today I wish you a Merry Christmas and a good New Year 2009. Cheers. Orchi (talk) 18:14, 22 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Dear Orchi, sure I'll be around next year and will be very glad to help whenever I am able to. I have been busy with other things but will always be back when I have free time. I also want you all the best for the forthcoming year.Dalton (talk) 19:35, 22 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Octomeria aloifolia or Octomeria aloefolia ?

[edit]

Dear Dalton, In Flora Brasiliensis 3.4 plate 127 fig. V (http://www.botanicus.org/page/137296) I find Octomeria aloifolia. This is also in Kews checklist and in your article in the Portugese wikipedia. (pt:Octomeria aloifolia).
You uploaded a photo to Commons with filename File:Octomeria aloefolia.jpg, in gallery Octomeria aloefolia, I assume this is a typogr. error? Thanks for your answer (no hurry), and a very happy 2009!

Dear Dalton, can you help me to identify the Peristeria from Panama ahead. I asked Maarten also. Cheers (and good nerves with our IP, as we would say in Germany). Orchi (talk) 22:11, 2 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Dear Dalton, I got info by Dr. Günter Gerlach. He identified the Peristeria Panama as Peristeria pendula. Also he identified my first Peristeria pendula wrong classified plant as Lycomormium squalidum. I think the two plants have the correct name now. I hope, you end your inactive time soon. Cheers.

Batemannia armillata from Suriname

[edit]

Hi Dalton,

I asked you some time ago about my Batemannia colleyi photos, you suggested Batemannia armillata. I've found a good photo of that species, and it seems to me absolutely right, see here:

"Notes sur la présence en Guyane française de trois espèces d'orchidées" par Roger Bellone in: Richardiana. The quarterly journal dedicated to orchids, published by Tropicalia. ( here ), with photograph.

I'll make a new gallery for this spec. and move my 2 photos there. Thanks for your help, glad I have a good name for this spec.!

File:Caladenia pendens.jpg

[edit]

Hello Dalton,

you requested this file moved to Caladenia pendens. Whatever your reason for this request was, the image does show a flower of the hybrid Caladenia chapmanii × polychroma It was not a plant that occurs in nature. It was a plant in a pot. --BerndH (talk) 19:02, 11 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

file moving

[edit]

Hi Dalton Holland Baptista, on request by Orchi I have granted you file-mover rights. Please first read Commons:File renaming and be always considerate when performing file renames, especially until you have enough experience. When in doubt ask Orchi. --Túrelio (talk) 19:54, 17 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Autopatrol given

[edit]

Hello. I just wanted to let you know that I have granted autopatrol rights to your account; the reason for this is that I believe you are sufficiently trustworthy and experienced to have your contributions automatically marked as "reviewed". This has no effect on your editing, it is simply intended to make it easier for users that are monitoring Recent changes or Recent uploads to find unproductive edits amidst the productive ones like yours. In addition, the Flickr upload feature and an increased number of batch-uploads in UploadWizard, uploading of freely licensed MP3 files, overwriting files uploaded by others and an increased limit for page renames per minute are now available to you. Thank you. INeverCry 21:38, 17 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

File:Stellilabium andinum b.jpg has been listed at Commons:Deletion requests so that the community can discuss whether it should be kept or not. We would appreciate it if you could go to voice your opinion about this at its entry.

If you created this file, please note that the fact that it has been proposed for deletion does not necessarily mean that we do not value your kind contribution. It simply means that one person believes that there is some specific problem with it, such as a copyright issue. Please see Commons:But it's my own work! for a guide on how to address these issues.

Please remember to respond to and – if appropriate – contradict the arguments supporting deletion. Arguments which focus on the nominator will not affect the result of the nomination. Thank you!

Important message for file movers

[edit]

A community discussion has been closed where the consensus was to grant all file movers the suppressredirect user right. This will allow file movers to not leave behind a redirect when moving files and instead automatically have the original file name deleted. Policy never requires you to suppress the redirect, suppression of redirects is entirely optional.

Possible acceptable uses of this ability:

  • To move recently uploaded files with an obvious error in the file name where that error would not be a reasonable redirect. For example: moving "Sheep in a tree.jpg" to "Squirrel in a tree.jpg" when the image does in fact depict a squirrel.
  • To perform file name swaps.
  • When the original file name contains vandalism. (File renaming criterion #5)

Please note, this ability should be used only in certain circumstances and only if you are absolutely sure that it is not going to break the display of the file on any project. Redirects should never be suppressed if the file is in use on any project. When in doubt, leave a redirect. If you forget to suppress the redirect in case of file name vandalism or you are not fully certain if the original file name is actually vandalism, leave a redirect and tag the redirect for speedy deletion per G2.

The malicious or reckless breaking of file links via the suppressredirect user right is considered an abuse of the file mover right and is grounds for immediate revocation of that right. This message serves as both a notice that you have this right and as an official warning. Questions regarding this right should be directed to administrators. --Majora (talk) 21:35, 7 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
