Abstract:—Many years ago Racinaea dyeriana was introduced in culture by Corn. Bak BV in the Netherlands. I believe that a few bottles of tissue culture were brought to the Netherlands by Ron Determan, working with Harry Luther at Selby at that time (ca. 1980). Racinaea dyeriana, at that time still in Tillandsia, was already considered a species threatened with extinction.
