Bulbophyllum
''Bulbophyllum'' is a genus of mostly Epiphyte, epiphytic and Lithophyte, lithophytic orchids in the Family (biology), family Orchidaceae. It is the largest genus in the orchid family and one of the List of the largest genera of flowering plants, largest genera of flowering plants with more than 2,000 species, exceeded in number only by ''Astragalus (plant), Astragalus''. These orchids are found in diverse habitats throughout most of the warmer parts of the world including Africa, southern Asia, Latin America, the West Indies, and various islands in the Indian Ocean, Indian and Pacific Oceans. Orchids in this genus have thread-like or fibrous roots that creep over the surface of trees or rocks or hang from branches. The stem is divided into a rhizome and a pseudobulb, a feature that distinguished this genus from ''Dendrobium''. There is usually only a single leaf at the top of the pseudobulb and from one to many flowers are arranged along an unbranched flowering stem that arises fr ...

Oncophyllum
''Oncophyllum'' is a genus in the orchid family, Orchidaceae, consisting of only two small species endemic to Australia, and previously classified as being in ''Bulbophyllum.'' Description This genus was first described in 2001 by D. L. Jones and M. A. Clements, and "... segregated from ''Bulbophyllum'' based on tiny pseudobulbs with a small internal cavity near the apex, a single tiny bract-like leaf on each pseudobulb, single-flowered inflorescence arising from the base of a pseudobulb and small flowers with a warty ovary." They grow in many habitats ranging from very exposed to relatively sheltered. They are pollinated by insects and are fairly easy to cultivate on a hard slab with reasonably bright light, high humidity and good ventilation, and regular watering all year. Type species: ''Bulbophyllum minutissimum'' F.Muell. The scientific name has been derived from the Neo-Latin word ''onco'', from Greek ''onkos'' (barbed hook); and phyllum ("one having (such) leaves or lea ...

He started collecting many plant specimens on Madagascar, Mauritius and La Réunion. Ten years later he was able to return to France with a collection of about 2000 plants. Most of his collection went to the ''Muséum de Paris'', while some species ended up at Royal_Botanic_Gardens,_Kew , Kew. He was elected member of the prestigious ''Académie des Sciences'' on 10 April 1820. Du Petit-Thouars is remembered ...
