	Pleurothallis ''Pleurothallis'' is a genus of orchids commonly called bonnet orchids. The genus name is derived from the Greek word , meaning "riblike branches". This refers to the rib-like stems of many species. The genus is often abbreviated as "Pths" in horticultural trade. This was a huge genus, which contained more than 1,200 species - the second largest in the Orchidaceae after ''Bulbophyllum''. In 2004, it decreased by more than half when many species were moved into new genera. Distribution ''Pleurothallis'' is a completely New World group, widespread across much of Mexico, Central America, South America and the West Indies. Flora of North America lists one species in Florida ''(P. gelida)'' but this has now been transferred to a different genus, ''Stelis''. The center of diversity of the genus is in the high Andes, especially in the chain of cloud forests in Colombia. ''Pleurothallis'' grows in dry or wet, tropical or temperate climates.
