The Musa sp. nov. 'Big Flower' and var. xishuangbannaensis (and var. gigantea) are the same, they could just look different because they male buds shown are at different levels of advancement.

There are at least 6 different varieties of M. itinerans known in China, however none are published yet.

After looking at more M. itinerans pictures I would agree that your second photo is much more M. yunnanensis like, especially if it is not a runner.
