| Remarks: |
Originated as Aechmea loesenera and then treated by Mez as Nidularium loeseneri by Mez. Smith decided in 1968 that it was a bigeneric which it appears to be but choose two species as parents even though there seems no proof that they were! The seed parent suggests this bigeneric should now be XAechopsis. The plant was not in cultivation at the time it was named by Smith and is not under the ICNCP rules but seems best dealt with here under 'Natural' hybrids as xNidumea. |
