Synonymy

At the urging of Dressler, Hexisea has been reduced to synonymy under Scaphyglottis, over which Hexisea has priority.[1] The Hexisea page is conserved here because Dressler's proposal stated, in part: "...those who so wish may retain Hexisea in any circumscription that excludes S.  graminifolia (the type of Scaphyglottis; see Dressler in Taxon 9:214. 1960)..."

gollark: (i.e. once per ten seconds at most and hooked up to my server, which does sickness/out-of-safe-range checks)
gollark: I guess it wouldn't be a massive issue, given that the code needed for viewbombing is already there but just used slightly responsibly.
gollark: It would basically involve taking about ten lines of publicly available code and basic JS knowledge.
gollark: You don't actually need one.
gollark: I mean, I have code for ARish stuff *anyway*, but if I make one it'll be significantly easier to make an *eeeevil* one.
