To the best of my knowledge all the stanhopea names are correct. Whenever I'm not sure about a name I'll make a note in the post.
I'm a guy that likes to grow a few orchids, I'm not a botanist or horticulturalist so any friendly advice would be welcomed. If you think any of the species or hybrid names are incorrect or if you have any questions about a post please get in touch.
All images are my own. All are of my various stanhopea and related species and hybrids.

Stanhopea maculosa
Found in Mexico around 1000 to 1800 metres.
This grows well for me in Sydney. Flowering most years, normally around late December.
This is one of the species that is said to need a rest during winter to trigger flowering
