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 author of the basiosynonym, while Nelson is the author 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.

Cattleyopsis Lindley 1853 SUBFAMILY Epidendroideae, TRIBE Epidendreae, SUBTRIBE Laeliinae.
A genus comprised of 3 species from the Caribbean islands of Cuba, Jamaica, Bermuda and the Bahamas with small, ovoid-cylindrical to ellipsoid psuedobulbs with one to two apical leaves that are fleshy-rigid and have erose margins. They have an erect, terminal, few flowered inflorescence with small bracts that give rise to small to medium showy flowers with speading or not spreading sepals and petals, a tubular base of the spurless lip which spreads in the front and has papillae and hairs on the central veins. They have 8 pollina instead of 4 in Cattleya. This genus is allied to Broughtonia and Laeliopsis and can be interbred with Cattleya as well.
Common Name or Meaning refers to the similarities to the genus Cattleya

` Caularthron Raf. 1837 SUBFAMILY Epidendroideae, TRIBE Epidendreae, SUBTRIBE Laeliinae.
This is a small genus of maybe 4 medium sized epiphytic species in tropical South America and Trinidad that is similar to Epidendrum but differs in having hollow horn like processes on the lip. It has also been known as Diacrium Lindley. This genus provides a hollow cavity inside the pseudobulb and is accessed at the base from which ants can get in and out. The leaves appear mostly on the upper end of the pseudobulb from which a terminal, racemose inflorescence arises with the few to several flowers held at the apex. The flowers open widely and, in contrast to Epidendrum, the lip is entirely free, and the column is broad and concave holding the 4 pollina with caudicles. This genus enjoys as bright sun as it can stand and they need no dry rest so water and fertilize evenly year round.
Common Name or Meaning Articulated Stem, refers to the internodes displayed by the pseudobulb when the leaves fall off.

There are approximately 26 species in this primarily terrestrial species found in the temperate zones of the new world, Europe, North Africa and east to the Himalayas and grow in calcareous soils which are very basic in 'ph' value. The plant has numerous roots giving rise to an erect stem carrying sessile, plicate leaves and blooms on a terminal, racemose, laxly to densely flowered inflorescence carrying suberect, white, pink to yellow flowers with a sessile ovary. The sepals and petals are subsimilar, free, connivent, the lip is 2 lobed and adnate to the column base and has a concave to saccate hypochile. The epichile is recurved and has longitudinal ridges and the long erect column has large stigma and a short to absent rostellum, the anther is unhinged and the 2 pollina are clavate and mealy.
Common Name or Meaning refers to the single stamen which sits on top of the anther

There are 147 some species in the genus that is largely found in India, S. E. Asia, and out to the Philippines and adjacent Pacific Islands. They require shade, humidity and plenty of water while growing, gradually reducing as the growths mature but never allow the plant to dry out completely. A genus of small epiphytes with fibrous roots and terete leaves that have an short inflorescence with one to several flowers in a small cluster that arises from sheaths at the base of the leaves.They flower more than once a year and can be divided after flowering. The solitary to a few in a cluster, resupinate flowers have erect, connivent sepals with the laterals forming an saccate or spurlike mentum with the column foot, narrow petals and a lip that is adnate to the column foot by a long, incumbent claw, entire, often with longitudinal calli and a short, dilated above, 2 lobed or with 2 spathulate, erect armed column and an elongate foot all with 8, sessile pollina.
Common Name or Meaning refers to how the wings of the column are raised and horn-like

There are 3 species in this new world fan-shaped epiphytic genus. They are characterized by having deciduous leaves with imbricating distichous leaf sheaths which produce the fan-shape plant. The small pseudobulbs can be either obvious and ovate in shape [C. surinamensis] or hidden within the leaf sheaths. The inflorescence is single flowered and arises from the base of the sheaths giving rise to a flower that has the sepals and petals similar in shape and size, the lip is ovate and has a large rib-shaped cupped callus on the claw or on the base of the lip blade. The column, which is curved, has a broad wing on each side from the base to the midpoint carrying 4 pollina in 2 unequal pairs.

This is a small epiphytic genus of nine species that are found in tropical Central and South America. The species were taken from the genus Chaubardia as they had no psuedobulbs and can be distinguished by a distinctive slender rostellum. This genus is characterized by the fan-shaped plant made up of imbricating leaf sheaths on a very short stem, there are no, or, very small pseudobulbs giving rise to a basal, single flowered inflorescence. The fleshy flowers lie on the substrate a ways from the plant and have spreading sepals and petals, a very short, thick column with a hooked rostellum, a lip that does not surround the column and there are two unequal pairs of pollina connected to a quadrate stipe and a hooked viscidium.
Common Name or Meaning refers to being a small Chaubardia, not very descriptive as they are not that similar

Twenty [2 are in contention C javanica and C pusilla] small, mostly leafless epiphytes make up this warm growing genus from India, S.E. Asia, Indonesia, and Australia. They are best mounted on wood or cork and need high humidity, moderate shade and regular water, but they like to dry out between waterings and, after growth has stopped, less water is required. The ephemeral flowers have lateral sepals and petals that are subequal and are often adnate to the column foot, the lip is more or less clawed, hinged to the apex of the column foot and is pouched or spurred, 3 lobed, lateral lobes larger and erect, midlobe small, the disc has a finger-like callus and is hirsute-pubescent, the short, semiterete column has a long foot, a shallow clinandrium, a deep set stigma, a deflexed, bifid rostellum, an anther cap with 2 long-filiform setae, 4 pollina in 2 closely appressed, unequal, sessile pairs and a sublinear stipe.

There are now 7 species in this genus and they are found in Central and South America as epiphytes and rarely lithophytes with the largest concentration of species in the Andes of Colombia at elevations of 300 to 2000 meters where they are cool to warm growing orchids that need shady humid conditions and never should be allowed to dry out completely. This genus is characterized by the lack of pseudobulbs, with the leaves forming a fan-shaped plant with an axillary, single flowered inflorescence arising from the axils of the leaf sheaths which gives rise to the flowers that have lateral sepals forming a semi tube, a not saccate lip that surrounds the column, a prominent callus, tongue or keel-like, in the mid portion of the lip, a clavate column without a ventral keel and four flattened pollina on a short stipe attached to a flat, cordiform viscidum.
Common Name or Meaning refers to the beak-like rostellum of the flower
