Dear Taxacomers,
Apologies for sending this message to TAXACOM, it may fit better to a chat line, but I hope I can find an orchid person who can
help to my friend.

"My husband's aunt once said that an orchid is named for my husband's great-grandfather, when he manged a Dutch plantation in
Indonesia. The last name was Loggers. I tried loggers in the IPNI Query and pulled up nothing. I've always thought it would
be neat to find the botanical article describing this orchid. But I don't have the orchids name, only that the aunt thought
"loggers" was in the plant's name. Do you know of any other on-line addresses I could check? "
Please, let me know, if you have any answer for her.
Many thanks and best regards,
Adolf
