When I met Dr. Misra, his exlaination was, I HAVE SEEN MORE SPECIMENS
THAN YOU PANKAJ!!!,
LUCKSOM HAS JUST COPIED WHAT OTHERS HAVE WRITTEN, I AM A BIG FAN OF
LATE DR GUNNAR SEIDENFADEN AND DR PHILLIP CRIBB, SO I TREAT THEM AS
SEPARATE SPECIES. On the basis of description, in N. prainiana leaves
are more orbicular whereas it is polygonal in N. crociformis and lip
has no sidelobes in N. crociformis, whereas it is distinct in N.
prainiana.
