Annotation:
according to its author (p. 105), "The plant was described initially as Ada revoluta Florian, sp. nov. in the yearbook of Czech orchid growers Roezliana 50, 2020, pp. 4 – 10 (2). Because of a reassignment of the genus Ada which is now merged with the genus Brassia I describe the new species as Brassia revoluta Florian"; whether or not the name Ada revoluta was published validly could not be determined, but if so, Brassia revoluta would be a new combination (and probably valid), not a new species name
