To the best of my knowledge all the stanhopea names are correct. Whenever I'm not sure about a name I'll make a note in the post.
I'm a guy that likes to grow a few orchids, I'm not a botanist or horticulturalist so any friendly advice would be welcomed. If you think any of the species or hybrid names are incorrect or if you have any questions about a post please get in touch.
All images are my own. All are of my various stanhopea and related species and hybrids.

Stanhopea ruckeri (no 3)
Formerly known as inodora and often still labelled as such.
This species is found in Mexico, Belize and Nicaragua at elevations of 800 to 1500 meters.
This grows well in my bush house and flowers most years from late December to mid February.
This is the less common spotted form with an orange eye.
