Intergeneric Hybrid
In biology, a hybrid is the offspring resulting from combining the qualities of two organisms of different varieties, subspecies, species or genera through sexual reproduction. Generally, it means that each cell has genetic material from two different organisms, whereas an individual where some cells are derived from a different organism is called a chimera. Hybrids are not always intermediates between their parents such as in blending inheritance (a now discredited theory in modern genetics by particulate inheritance), but can show hybrid vigor, sometimes growing larger or taller than either parent. The concept of a hybrid is interpreted differently in animal and plant breeding, where there is interest in the individual parentage. In genetics, attention is focused on the numbers of chromosomes. In taxonomy, a key question is how closely related the parent species are. Species are reproductively isolated by strong barriers to hybridization, which include genetic and morphological ...

Ansellia
''Ansellia'' is considered a monotypic genus of orchid, with only one species, ''Ansellia africana'', commonly known as African ansellia or leopard orchid, however, it may in fact be a complex group of species which share common floral structure and growth habit. The plants are found throughout tropical and subtropical Africa. It was named after John Ansell, an English assistant botanist. who found the first specimens in 1841 on the Fernando Po Island in West Africa. This genus is sometimes abbreviated as Ansel or Aslla in horticultural trade. It is referred to along with '' Grammatophyllum'' as a "trash basket" orchid due to its habit of creating a makeshift container of aerial roots to catch falling leaf litter for nutrients.The Orchids, Natural History and Classification, Robert L. Dressler. Distribution and habitat This orchid is native to tropical and southern Africa, found alongside coasts and rivers in the canopy of trees, usually at elevations lower than (occasio ...

Cyrtopodium
''Cyrtopodium'', often abbreviated Cyrt in horticulture, is a genus of more than 40 species of epiphytic and terrestrial orchids found from Florida and Mexico through Argentina. ''Cyrtopodium'' is the only genus in the monotypic subtribe Cyrtopodiinae.Pridgeon, A.M., Cribb, P.J., Chase, M.A. & Rasmussen, F. eds. (2009). Genera Orchidacearum, Volume 5. Oxford Univ. Press. The type species is '' C. andersonii'', originally described in 1812 by A.B. Lambert as ''Cymbidium andersonii'', and in 1813 used by Robert Brown to erect his new genus ''Cyrtopodium''.Brown, Robert, in Aiton, William Townsend. 1813.

Cymbidieae
The Cymbidieae is a tribe of plants within the family Orchidaceae. The group is divided into the following subtribes: * Catasetinae * Coeliopsidinae * Cymbidiinae * Cyrtopodiinae * Eriopsidinae * Eulophiinae * Maxillariinae * Oncidiinae * Stanhopeinae Stanhopeinae is a subtribe of plants in the tribe Cymbidieae.
