The taxonomy of the banana we eat has become enigmatic. Musa x
paradisiaca is not used now a days.
And it is invalid according to ICBN.
Wikipedia says, " Almost all modern edible parthenocarpic bananas come
from the two wild species – Musa acuminata and Musa balbisiana. The
scientific names of bananas are Musa acuminata, Musa balbisiana or
hybrids Musa acuminata × balbisiana, depending on their genomic
constitution. The old scientific names Musa sapientum and Musa
paradisiaca are no longer used."
