Musa sapientum is not a valid species name, and probably why there is no info about it in the wiki. It is an old name (that was valid once) that refers to dessert bananas in general.

Bikoro, the name Musa sapeintum refers to at least 3 different types of seedless bananas. The seller is using this name in error.

I have seen some sites selling Musa sapeintum, and Musa paradisica seeds. Makes me curious about what is is there selling, but at the prices that Seedman has for those,, not that curious.
