Orchid Names / Identifiers
Question Orchid Names / Identifiers
I've just had a look in Orchid Board's Glossary and would just like clarification on the names that orchids are referred to as...

I note there are "Species" and "Genus" (is that all there is to orchid identification?)

Taking, as an example, the plant "Cattleya aurantiaca"... would Cattleya be the Genus, while aurantiaca be the Species? Or is it the other way around... Or is it neither?
