:Normally such material would go in an article for the genus (which would also cover the species, since there is only one). But it probably is wise to wait until the genus is published in a scientific journal (planned for later in 2008), so keeping this material here for now sounds good to me. ] (]) 13:29, 5 May 2008 (UTC) |

A type of this
I added this here, because - one link says it is a type of this subject plant. While another link says it is a new and different one, and still has to be named, still, it is not yet settled if this is really a new one, until scientists officially name this one. So, until named in Latin, I added this here, since it is a type of this plant here: On May, 2008, St. Louis botanist George Yatskievych and a colleague, with the Missouri Botanical Garden, rediscovered and identified (in Sierra Madre del Sur, a pine oak forest in Mexico's mountains) a rare odd, orange-brown, fleshy-stemmed parasitic plant, first found in 1985 by Wayt Thomas, New York Botanical Garden scientist. A type of Orobanchaceae, the pine cone-shaped dense cluster of flowers and juicy celery-like stalks plant will have the formal Latin name for the "little hermit of Mexico," both a new species and a new genus because "it is so unusual and distinct that it cannot be included in any of the existing genera in the plant family Orobanchaceae". There are echoes in this plant’s lifestyle of species such as Orthilia secunda, which steals its goodness from funghi. --Florentino floro (talk) 06:55, 5 May 2008 (UTC)
