How to find the name of an Indonesian orchid?

[Thomas Lammers]

Index Kewensis on CD-ROM shows NO specific or infraspecific epithet
"loggers*" (the asterisk is a wild card to cover -i, -ii, -ianua,
etc.).  Is it perhaps a cultivar name, rather than a Latin binomial?  E.g.,
Cypripedium 'Joe Loggers' ???  (It could still be an infraspecific name; IK
only began including those rather recently.)
