Untitled[edit]

The photograph is clearly incorrect. Ibicella lutea has yellow flowers. The plant shown is almost certainly a species of Proboscidea. Plantphotographer (talk) 15:28, 14 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

That's one of the disadvantages of Wikipedia. We rely on self-identified plants by people who may not be experts. I'll remove the photo from the page (feel free to do the same when you run into them!). Cheers, Rkitko ^(talk) 23:41, 14 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Monotypic?[edit]

Is this genus monotypic? The article was moved from Ibicella lutea to Ibicella with the justification that the genus is monotypic. The Plant List (not that I entirely trust that reference) has two other species. Tropicos also lists the two other species ([1], [2], although they are apparently little mentioned in the literature. From the dearth of references to the other species in Tropicos, I assume that the genus may indeed be considered to have only one good species, but I don't have a reference confirming this.Plantdrew (talk) 16:31, 21 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
