Yup, it is deffinitly one of those.

QUite seriously I have never been able to distinguish between the two nor have I met anyone who can from pics or plants. Not sure what genius decided they were worthy of seperating.

Ego. Publish or perish. Take your pick.
 
by looking at the flowers. P. jaumavensis has darkish streaks on the inside of the flower....P. esseriana doesn't. by looking at these pics and yours i say you have esseriana
Alex

This is not necessarily true. I have a jauvamensis clone that lacks the streaks and an esseriana that has streaks.
 
Thanks all, I think I'll have to go with P. esseriana as well. Mine seems to have the less rounded petals with space between them as well as the non overlapping top two petals.
