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.

SUBFAMILY Epidendroideae, TRIBE Vandeae, SUBTRIBE Aeridinae.
This genus is comprised of some 20 species from SE Asia to the Philippines. They are best grown in wood slat baskets and as a rule like partial to full sun and unlike Vanda, less water and fertilizer after blooming. Otherwise their growing habit is very much like Vanda. Characterized by the elongate stem carrying many leathery leaves and blooming on a long, semi-erect to horizontal, branched, red to yellow flowered inflroescence with sreading, wavy edged tepals, laterla sepals usual;ly much longer and broader. The lip is smaller thant he tepals and is firmly attached to the column with an unornamented back wall, callosities on the sides walls of the conical sac with raised sidelobes for the hypochile, a small most often recurved epichile. The column is short and stout and there is not a foot. The 4 pollina are in unequal pairs with a broad stipe and a fleshy viscidium.

Restrepia Kunth SUBFAMILY Epidendroideae, TRIBE Epidendreae, SUBTRIBE Pleurothallidinae .
This genus is made up of 30 to 40 smaller epiphytic or rarely lithophytic herbs found from Mexico to Northern Argentina at elevatiojns of 1800 to 2400 meters in open spots with high light near rivers and streams on tree trunls and lower branches and can become quite a large mass. The plants have short stems or ramicauls, have one tufted, coriaceous, conduplicate, suberect or erect leaf that bears one to several, terminal, single flowered inflorescence that can bloom over and over for years. The lateral sepals are connate, forming a boat-shaped synsepal in most species, the dorsal sepal and the petals are completely free from one another and are thicker at the apex. The petals are transparent and have 3 visible veins, a ribbed lip with denticulate margins, has a pair of thread-like appendages basally and is attached to the foot of an incurved column which broadens apically and carries 4 pollina. As a whole their culture is similar to small Pleurothallis species and grow well with small pots, high humidity, and shady conditions.

SUBFAMILY Epidendroideae, TRIBE Vandeae, SUBTRIBE Aeridinae.
This vandaceous genus with 4 species is used in hybridization often and can be found from India southeast to the Philippines. This genus differs from Vandas by the one-lobed lip and unlike vandas they like indirect light instead. It is a monopodial genus with leathery leaves that support fragrant racemes of spicy flowers. The lip is immobile and merges onto the base of the column with the basal part forming a deep, wide sac or spur. The laterally much compressed spur is directed backwards and the lip has no sidelobes or calli, with the mouth often pubscent within, the apical part entire to slightly 3 lobed and more or less oblong and concave. The short column is dilated at the base with the foot either indistinct or absent and the rostellum is long pointed. The 2 pollina are globular, indented and have long slender stipes that widen at the apex and an oblong viscidium. They like wood slat basket culture with little or no potting material and will grow massive fleshy roots entangled throughout the basket if given uniform water and fertilizer.
Common Name or Meaning refers to the beak-like viscidium

A monotypic genus from the island of New Guinea. An epiphytic herb, vegetatively and florally somewhat simulating a Acriopsis, espcially when not in flower. This species from the mountain forests of New Guinea is allied to the subtribe Thelasis Blume. The dark-purplish flowers borne in profusion on branching inflorescenses have an unusual appeal. The species is found in on the edge of the rain forest where there is plenty of sun light at elevations of about 600 to 1200 meters.

A genus of 49 or so epiphytic or lithophytic species in the American tropics but with the highest concentration in Brazil. They are smaller plants with sheathed, prominent, elongate, psuedobulbs spaced either clustered or far apart on the wiry rhizome, with one or more erect or arching racemes that are many flowered and arise from the bract-axils. The flowers have equal sized dorsal sepal and petals while the lateral sepals are fused to form a spur which projects forward or backward arching under the lip. This sepal spur contains nectar and encloses the lip spur which can be long or short. The lip is the same color in all species as the petals and sepals, and it has a clawed base that broadens to a rounded apex with two lobes.

Scaphosepalum Pfitz. 1888 SUBFAMILY Epidendroideae, TRIBE Epidendreae, SUBTRIBE Pleurothallidinae
There are about 47 species of these odd, primarily tufted, epiphytic, creeping orchids with a lateral inflorescence from an annulus low on the ramicaul, the raceme has successive,non-resupinate flowers that is unique in the Pleurothallidinae. They are found in mossy cloud forests from Guatemala to Peru at elevations of 500 to 3000 meters. The plant morphology of this genus is similar to Masdevallia from which many of these species were removed and can be miniature to medium sized. The flowers are small and nonresupinate and hold the lateral sepals high which often extend to slender tails similar to insect antennae. The petals are small and fleshy. The column is winged and strongly curved bearing two piriform pollina with caudicles at the apex and a long foot at the base from which the lip is articulated and it has a prominent cushion-like callus on the inside of the lateral sepals near the apex.
Common Name or Meaning refers to the fused sepals forming a basin

Scaphyglottis Poeppig & Endl. 1836 SUBFAMILY Epidendroideae, TRIBE Epidendreae, SUBTRIBE Laeliinae.
An epiphytic or sometimes lithophytic genus , with highly variable plant forms, that has around 50 rarely seen species from Central America, the West Indies and south to Bolivia and Brazil. Culturally these species can be grown in the same conditions that the psuedobulbed Epidendrum need. The species range in altitude from sealevel to high in the Andes so temperatures requirements are based on the location and habitat of each individual species. They like sunny, well watered conditions while growing and a lessening after flowering or the psuedobulbs maturation. The genus is characterized by the habit of putting out one psudobulb on top of the next and having very small terminal inflorescence with tiny flowers held close to the psuedobulb. The flowers have similar sized petals and sepals and a lip that is slightly larger is attached to the prominent column foot which carries 4 pollina with caudicles at the apex.
Common Name or Meaning refers to the basin-shaped lip

Scelochilus Klotzsch 1841 SUBFAMILY Epidendroideae, TRIBE Cymbidieae SUBTRIBE Oncidiinae.
Related to Comparettia and found from Guatemala to French Guiana and south to Bolivia at elevations of 150 to 2700 meters but the majority are found from 1200 to 2000 meters and as such mostly need a warm to cool environment with even year-round watering. The genus, of 30 so species, is characterized by being small epiphytes with a few stems clustereed together with a small narrow pseudobulb with a terminal leaf from which arises an erect or pendant, longer than the leaf, racemose inflorecence with a few to several flowers. The flowers often are half closed, of medium size, and have the connate lateral sepals with an obtuse sack-like extension at their base. The petals are united with the dorsal sepal and the lip is rigid and closely attached to the column and extends at the base to create two narrowly separated spurs inside the sack-like extension of the lateral sepals.

Sedirea Garay & H.R. Sweet 1974 SUBFAMILY Epidendroideae, TRIBE Vandeae, SUBTRIBE Aeridinae.
Common Name or Meaning An anagram of the genus Aerides of which it has spome similarities
This small monopodial epiphytic genus with 2 species is native from China, Japan and Korea. Sedirea is Aerides spelled backwards as the genus was previously included in Aerides. The plant may be grown in small pots or mounted. The plant lacks pseudobulbs and appears to be easily prone to desiccation in cultivation, therefore watering should be regular all year. The plant should be given medium bright light and intermediate temperatures.

There is but a single species in this genus endemic to Bolivia. It has only been found a few times and is very rare by all accounts. It is characterized by being a miniature sized orchid with tiny pseduobulbs partially enveloped by the leaf bases and carrying very narrow, terete to oblong leaves that blooms on a basal, pendant inflorescence carring several greenish white flowers held in a tight cluster at the apex. The sepals and petals are free, oblanceolate and green, the lip and column are united from the base of the column to the midpoint. The lip is trilobed and the lateral lobes elongate and recurving to form an anchor shaped structure with a clavate column with a pair of round lobes.

Selenipedium Rchb.f. 1854 SUBFAMILY Cypripedioideae
There are three to five species left at this time in this terrestrial, tall growing, bamboolike genus with reedy stems and prominent plicate leaves that bear small, non-descript flowers in a terminal raceme. These orchids are rarely seen in cultivation. Many orchids bearing the name Selenipedium are actually from the genus Phragmipedium. The genus is comprised of long stemed terrestrails, some growing as tall as 3 meters, with narrowly lanceolate [grass-like], plicate leaves, alternating on either side of the stem. The terminal, racemose, successively flowering inflorescence with small flowers that have the lateral sepals fused together and the lip is a slipper shape. The column has two fertile anthers one on each side and a sheild-shaped staminodesitting in the center and trotrudes over the top of the column.
