Till. streptocarpa "alba" ????

HI folks !
Maybe somebody of you experts out there can help my with this.
TILLANDSIA streptocarpa Baker, 1887 is a well known species to
the most of you.
It is not particulary rare and an easy and robust beginner plant.
Normaly it has blue-purple petals, exept the very rare
var. aureiflora Rauh, 1984 which has yellow flowers.
While browsing thru my brom-collection the other day I noticed,
that one of my streptocarpas, that came in bloom, had pure-white flowers
This speciman was collected in the wild in bolivia, so it´s not "just
another hybrid" from somebodys nursery.
Has anybody ever seen a streptocarpa type like this, or does anybody
know if something like this has ever been published somewhere?
Or is it simply another species ????:scratch
Lookin' forward to your comments..
THX Timm
