Notes.

When proposing Vanilla organensis, Rolfe listed four different collections, considered syntypes. Gardner 632 at the Lindley Herbarium (K) was selected by Soto-Arenas and Cribb (2010) as the lectotype, and four additional specimens were designated as isolectotypes. The sheet on which Gardner 632 (K) is conserved includes two other elements that do not belong to the same collection, a stem with inflorescence on the top right and a detached flower, which are excluded.
