Wild bananas and edible have totally different taxonomic naming systems. In the example you provided, Musa 'Orinoco' is incomplete, but more or less correct. Musa acuminata subvar. orinoco is totally incorrect and names like that should be avoided. The full proper name of the cultivar 'Orinoco' is Musa (ABB Bluggoe) 'Orinoco'.
