I ask the following question strictly out of curiousity,
not attempting to imply any particular direction of thought:
Isn't it possible that some of the existing "known" species, or so-called
"undetermined" species, are possibly natural hybrids??
They may well be. Such hybrids are known in other families, e.g.,
Brassicaceae, Rosaceae, even some ferns. Now my own curiosity is piqued: I
have heard of hybrids between genera in orchids (e.g., Sophrolaeliocattleya
is a hybrid of three orchid genera), and am wondering if any such have been
made among aroids.
