Naming edit

This species has been transferred back to Caladenia but there is a problem with the spelling of the species' name. Ostenfeld called it Caladenia Gertrudiæ[1] but APNI uses the spelling Caladenia gertrudiae[2] and Kew Gardens uses Caladenia gertrudeae.[3] I have written to Kew asking if this is a spelling mistake.
