Welcome to the Internet Orchid Species Photo Encyclopedia
Genera or species names that are synonyms of current names are denoted with a ~.
The basiosynonym of a species is denoted with a "*". The basiosynonym is the very first name that a species had before it was changed to the current species name. If you have a name in parenthesis preceding another name, the name in parentheses is the basiosynonym. An example: ~*Ophrys bicolor Naegeli - See Ophrys apifera var. bicolor (Naegeli) Nelson: Ophyrs bicolor is the basiosynonym and in the current name the parentheses, (Naegeli), is the namer of the basiosynonym, while Nelson is the namer of the current species Ophyrs apifera var. bicolor.
If a genus is complete [all of the species are represented] it is preceded by a `
! denotes the Type Species of the genus
* denotes the basionym or original name with the same species taxon
I have decided to include synonyms in the alphabetical listings because I have found it frustrating to find that some growers do not stay currrent in their plant names and as such we the consumer end up buying a plant that we feel is an exotic different species only to find that it is a plant that we have had for years under the correct name. An example, Brassavola rhopalorrhachis Rchb.f is actually the common species Brassavola nodosa [L]Lindley.

Cochleanthes Raf. 1838 SUBFAMILY Epidendroideae, TRIBE Cymbidieae, SUBTRIBE Zygopetalinae.
There are only 4 species left in this genus that is widely spread through out tropical America that grows epiphytically and need a shady and very humid environment at all of the elevations that they occur from sea level to 1800 meters. Many species, including a few very commercial ones such as Cochleanthes amazonica, have been moved to Warzewiczella and a stricter criteria has been adopted to define Cochleanthes. The flowers of this genus are characterized by being large, almost the size of Pescatorea and lack psudobulbs, the leaves do not have a sheath and the alternating narrow, conduplicate, veined medeally and the keeled dorsally leaves do not form a fan as in Chondrorhyncha. The lateral sepals are bent back, but not as much as Warzewiczella, the lateral lobes of the lip are erect, but fail to envelop the column base, creating a shelf-like extension of the callus, differing from Warzewickzella by not forming a tube. the callus is made up of many seriate plates whose apice abut and intrude onto the lip, similar to Pescatorea.
Common Name or Meaning refers to the snailshell-shaped lip

Coelogyne Lindley 1821? SUBFAMILY Epidendroideae, TRIBE Podochileae, SUBTRIBE Coelogyninae.
A most interesting group of 190 species that is found in all four climes, hot, warm, cool and cold and in most all of Asia east of India and on into Indonesia and Fiji. Great care must be given in knowing what climate a species comes from as they may not tolerate your conditions. Warm growing species like pandurata and speciosa require no rest while colder growing species need a dry rest in the winter. They can have close or far spaced pseudobulbs along the rhizome with 1 or 2 plicate leaves and inflorescences that arise from the apex of the pseudobulb or from the apex of a new growth. I find that wire baskets accommodate these potentially large plants best. My mature pandurata is in a 16" basket and grew out of it in 1 year! The trilobed lip with a spreading midlobe and longitudinal keels either toothed or papilose. The long, winged column has a large rostellum curving over the hollow stigma. There are 4 pollina cohering in pairs to a single, two lobed granular appendage.
Common Name or Meaning refers to the frontally hollow column

Coryanthes is one of the most complex flowers in the Orchid World and the 59 or so species are spread from Mexico to Peru and Bolivia and are as a whole cool to warm growing, water loving orchids that are always found in association with ant colonies in trees over creeks or little rivers in very wet, tropical, lowland forest to 1200 meters in elevation. The

There are 20 species in this Central and South American genus that is allied to Maxillaria that generally has no pseudobulbs with leaves in a tuft or rosettte and gives rise to a solitary flower arising from the base of the plant. The flowers have a basal spur, a column without a ligule below the stigma and 4 hard pollina superposed and compressed attaced to a wide short stipe and a wide viscidium. They like warm to cool conditions with a short winter rest and are best mounted to accomodate the scrambling growth habit.
CAUTION!!!!This is a difficult genus to determine the correct species name without detailed photos of the plant as well as the flowers. Most of the accompaning photos do not have plant photos so all of these determinations are suspect!

Cycnoches Lindley 1832 SUBFAMILY Epidendroideae, TRIBE Cymbidieae, SUBTRIBE Catasetinae.
Cycnoches is a genus with 34 species spread throughout most of tropical America. This genus as a whole has long slender pseudobulbs with several internodes that have thin, veined deciduous leaves with an inflorescence that starts from the apical nodes and gives rise to unisexual flowers with both sexes sometimes on the same spike but not hermaphroditic flowers. Many more male flowers are produced than female with the main difference being that the male flowers have a longer column with a spring loaded pollina that can be ejected onto a pollinator. The 2 hard, round pollina are connected to an elongated stipe that is in turn connected to a round viscidium. They are lowland epiphytes found from sea level to 600m in humid to moist forests or terrestrials on fallen rotten logs. They like warm conditions as a whole and heavy fertilizer and water after the new lead is 2-3 " tall through it's flowering in the fall, then no water or fertilizer until the lead shows again in the spring. Many growers actually take the plant out of the pot and cut away all the roots and 2 year old bulbs and then place the naked pseudobulb in a dry lighted area until the new growth is visible. It is then potted up and the new lead is allowed to grow to 2-3" before application of water and fertilizer.
Common Name or Meaning Swan-necked Orchid - refers to the swan-like curved column of the male flowers

`Cymbidiella Rolfe 1918 SUBFAMILY Epidendroideae, TRIBE Cymbidieae, SUBTRIBE Eulophiinae.
There are three species in this Madagascan genus that has many similarities to Cymbidium but in fact has closer ties to Eulophiella Rolfe. The genus has two epiphytic species, C. rhodochila and C. humblodtii, can be grown in baskets, and the terrestrial species C. flabellata, is best treated like a Phaius. Constant hot, humid, with copious water year round and great drainage of the medium. Semi shade is required to keep from sunburning the leaves.
Common Name or Meaning refers to it's similarities as a small Cymbidium

Cymbidium Swartz 1799 SUBFAMILY Epidendroideae, TRIBE Cymbidieae Pfitz. SUBTRIBE Cymbidiinae Benth.
About 50 species are found through Asia and the Pacific Islands and can be divided into three basic groups. The first group are the large flowered species that are found in the Himalayas and higher elevations of China and they require a pronounced cool period to initiate flowering. The second group grows in cool to intermediate temps year round and does not need a distinct cool snap to flower. The third and last group are the warm growing tropical plants that require year round warm temps and because of their pendant inflorescence are best planted in hanging wire baskets. The often large and showy flowers have free, spreading or erect sepals and petals a 3 lobed, sessile lip on a short column foot with the lateral lobes erect around the column, the midlobe recurved and a disc with 1 to 3, glabrous or pubescent ridges. The column is elongate, has 2 deepy grooved or 4 subglobose to pyramidal pollina attached to the broad viscidium by a short caudicle.
Common Name or Meaning Boat Orchid - refers to the boat-shaped lip

The Sections of Cymbidium according to Cribb & Du Puy 2007
Another monotypic section characterized by the short triangular mid-lobe of the lip, an inflorescence that arises on immature growths, long bracts, an erect dorsal sepal, decurved lateral sepals, porrect petals that cover the column, the side lobes of the lip clasp the top of the purple pink column, which has a dense, ventral indumentum having long hairs and lastly the wedge shaped callus ridge structure on the lip.
SECTION Austrocymbidium Schlechter 1924
This section is characterized with difficulty as all three species have only a few of each of these characteristics between them but as a group they share many of the differnt affinities tying them together. The section has leaves articulated close to the pseudobulb and has many close set, mostly yellowish to greenish flowers on a pendant inflorescence with broad, mostly broader than the petals, obovate to oblong-elliptic, rounded to obtuse apically sepals and a small, narrow side lobed lip with a short column carrying 2 ellipsoidal, parallel pollina. pollina
SECTION Bigibbarium Schlechter 1924
A monotypic section that differs in it leaves that have a broad, elliptic lamina narrowed below into a slender petiole. The petals of the flowersare rhombic and most of the lip has 2 small swellings replacing the callus ridges, and the lip midlobes have a dot each at the base and there is a short column foot
SECTION Borneense Du Puy & Cribb 1988
Characterized by having elliptical stomatal coverings and narrow, slit-shaped aperatures, coriaceous, acute apically leaves and 4 pollina instead of the normal 2 cleft pollina.
Characterized by thick, often ligulate leaves with obtuse to emarginate, bilobed apices and pendulous to arching, or rarely suberect inflorescence with small well-spaced flowers. The flowers are cream to greenish with red to brown markings and the leaves have elliptical stomatal coverings and narrow, slit-shaped aperatures.
The Section is characterized by the narrow, hyaline, incurved, leaf margins that appear acuminate in transverse section, has relatively large flowers with acute sepals and petals,and a porrect dorsal sepal that tends to cover the column which is fused to the base of the lip for about 2 to 6 mm.
SECTION Floribundum Seth & Cribb 1984
The Type of this section is C floribundum and the section is characterized by having 15 to 50, closely spaced flowers on short, suberect inflorescence. The flowers have sepals and petals with obtuse apices [except C elongatum whose placement in this section is not secure], the lip has broad side lobes with rounded apices and a broadly ovate mid-lobe. This section has similarities to the section Austrocymbidium such as the coriceous leaves, the close set flowers on short inflorescence, the obtuse sepals and petals with a greenish tint and the ellipsoidal pollina. In fact many of the species in this section [C chloranthum, C hartinahianum and C elongatum] were foprmerly included in the section Austrocymbidium. Of all the species in this section c elongatum is the most tentative as it has an elongated monopodial stem and short lateral inflorescence.
SECTION Himantophyllum Schlechter 1924
A monotypic section that differs in its slender, acuminate leaves as in C ensifolium of Section jensoa but does not have the acuminate leaf margins in cross-section and has maroon & white flowers with sharply acute sepals and petals, decurved seplas and forward pointed petals somewhat forming a hood over the column which is not fused basally to the lip which also has 2 pubescent callus ridges made up of glandular hairs with swollen tips which is unique to the genus, giving the single species it's sectional status.
SECTION Jensoa [Raf.] Schlechter 1924
This section is characterized by terrestrial speceis with flowers carrying 4 pollina in 2 unequal pairs and a lip with 2 callus ridges converging towards the apex making a short tube at the base of the mid-lobe. The leaves have a papillose on the abaxial, epidermal suface of the leaf and the stomatal coverings are circular and project beyond the surface of the epidermis. The seed is also characteristic and is elongate and thread-like and the seed capsules are erect instead of pendulous.
SECTION Pachyrhizanthe Schlechter 1924 The Section includes two species, Cymbidium macrorhizon differs from all the others in the subterranean rhizome, lacking leaves , pseudobulbs or roots, the second member of this section C lancifolium has psueodobulbs but has flowers very closely related to C macrorhizon.but related in flower form to Section Jensoa
A monotypic section with a very distinctive species characterized by round to broadly ovoid, naked pseudobulbs without leaf sheaths and carrying 2 to 4 apical leaves and blooms on a basal, lateral 2 to 5 flowered inflorescence and spidery appearing flowers with porrect petals and a lip with a rectangular, cuspidate mid-lobe with unusual markings. The lip and column are fused.

SECTIONS by Cribb & Herman 2009
SECTION Cynorchis is characterized by generally large, brightly colored flowers with the petal bases and lateral sepals free or fused to the base, an often 4 lobed lip with an entire rostellum along a certain length in front of the anther and then divided into three lobes [2 arms and a middle lobe], arms at least 1mm long and the middle lobe is obliquely ascending at the front.
SECTION Imerinorchis is characterized by that lateral sepals and petals are more or less fused at the base of the lip and the rostellum is divided into two arms up to the base of the anther filament and the middle lobe is folded back down to the base either reduced to a small protrusion, or is more or less developed into a blade narrowly placed against the filament between the 2 anther chambers.
SECTION Lowiorchis is characterized by "always having a 4 lobed lip with a rostellum with long or short arms, always entire for a certain length, and in front of the anther, with the double middle lobe bilobed or almost so. The upper lobule reduced to 1 or 2 small obtuse protrusions or, developed into an obliquely ascending blade: the lower lobule in a membraneous piece forming a gutter or inflexed lobe, divided."
SECTION Parviflorae is characterized by a normally slender p[lant with an often lax to few flowered inflorescence carrying small to medium sized, often non-resupinate flowers. The lateral sepals and petals are often fused at their base to the base of the lip. The rostellum is in a flat bald shape, held horizontal, and only toothed or lobed in the front with often 3 teeth, or lobed at the same level, always very short, with anther canals on the rostellar blade, the viscidia resting in between the teeth or anterior lobes

Cypripedium Lindley 1753 SUBFAMILY Cypripedioideae
These are the Temperate American or Asian 'Lady's Slipper' orchids that are related to the Paphiopedilum, that may be growing in a forest near you. There are 58 species in the United States and Canada with a few that are found as far south as Guatemala, they occur in eastern Asia as well. They are one of the most primitive of the Orchidaceae and other than, Paphiopedilum, Phragmepidilum and Selenipedium have no other common ancestors or links and as such will not procreate with other orchids outside of its Subfamily. They are almost always terrestrials but they can be found on rocks or low tree trunks if they are very mossy.
The genus is characterized by being small to large, rhizomatous terrestrials with 1 to several, plicate, deciduous, reniform-ovate to lanceolate, and bloom on a terminal, 1 to several flowered inflorescence with leafy floral bracts holding showy flowers. The sepal is erect to porrect over the3 lip and the lateral sepals are united to form a synsepal. The petals are spreading, linear-lanceolate and somtimes twisted. The deeply saccate lip has the margins inrolled, the column is porrect, the staminaode pelate-ovate to trowel shaped. There are 2 anthers that are behind the staminode.

Cyrtochilum H.B.K. 1816 SUBFAMILY Epidendroideae, TRIBE Cymbidieae SUBTRIBE Oncidiinae.
The 120 or so Cyrtochilum species were segregated from Oncidium on the basis of elongate rhizomes with well-spaced pseudobulbs, with 2 or 4 pairs of long leaves around the base, with sheaths that are longer than the pseudobulb which gives rise to an axillary, 2 to 12' [60 to 360 cm] long, branched, many flowered inflorescence with large flowers. The flowers have clawed, wavy sepals and has an erect colum that is connected to ther base of the lip. The lip carries a callus consisting of tiny tuberules lined up one in front of the other. The pollina has a broad rectangular to ovate stipe. All valid Cyrtochilum are found in the upper elevations around 1500 to 3000 meters of the Andes from Venezuela, Colombia and south to Ecuador and Peru as terrestrials in misty uplands and as such should be grown cool to cold and always kept moist.
Common Name or Meaning refers to the curved lip that is so rigid that it is nearly impossible to straighten out

Cyrtopodium R. Brownn 1813 SUBFAMILY Epidendroideae, TRIBE Cymbidieae, SUBTRIBE Catasetinae.
The species of this genus are commonly called cigar orchids because of the shape of their pseudobulbs. The 48 species of the medium to large sized epiphytic, lithophytic or terrestrial plants can be found in all of tropical and subtropical America but are concentrated in Brazil. They are characterized by having fleshy pseudobulbs of several internodes carrying thin, plicate, deciduous leaves, flowering on a basal, bracteate, paniculate inflorescence that has floral bracts the same color as the flowers which have a trilobed lip that is not concave at the bottom and 2 hard pollina attached to a stipe which is attached to a round viscidium.
Common Name or Meaning refers to the column foot being bent upwards
