1	Dendrobium 'Jaquelyn Thomas'	West Makaleha off of trail up to Three Points exclosure	Growing as epiphyte next to Polystachya concreta on nearly dead Antidesma platyphylla.	Preserved_Specimen	Roy Tokunaga IDed it as a hybrid of Dendrobium Jaquelyn Thomas.	Kawelo, K.	235	Oahu	BISH	2011-10-13
2	Dendrobium 'Jaquelyn Thomas'	Kahuku Training Area, north of Opana access road.	In open, sunny area. Associated vegetation: canopy of Casuarina and Schinus terebinthifolius, but no canopy within 15 m; understory of Osteomeles anthyllidifolia, Phymatosorus grossus, Wikstroemia oahuensis, Schinus, Casuarina, non-native grasses	Preserved_Specimen	Single mature plant, no seedlings seen. Naturalized. Terrestrial, rooted on rock, ca 1 m tall canelike stems; single plantlet seen growing off a stem. Leaves 2-ranked. Flowers vibrant purple, 5+ sprays, with pleasant, faint scent. Fruit 2-4 cm long, plump, green. Plant was flowering abundantly. Seemed like an unusual location for this type of orchid: very exposed and sunny. Dendrobium-like flowers and general appearance. Could have been in an orchid show, it was so spectacular.	Beachy, J.	449	Oahu	BISH	2016-07-28
