Oncidiinae
The Oncidiinae is a subtribe within the Orchidaceae that consists of a number of genera that are closely related. This subtribe consists of about 70 genera with over 1000 species, with ''Oncidium'' as its largest genus. These genera consist of a single floral type based on the angle of the attachment of the Labellum (botany), lip to the Column (botany), column, reflecting pollinator preferences. This has however led to several unreliable results and polyphyletic taxa within ''Oncidium''. These were transferred to ''Gomesa'' and a new genus ''Nohawilliamsia'', has been described for ''Oncidium orthostates'' Most species have well-developed pseudobulbs and conduplicate leaves. It is possible to form hybrids in some instances between multiple genera within the Oncidiinae. These hybrids are often colloquially referred to as "intergenerics." Genera Genera recognized in Chase et al.'s 2015 classification of Orchidaceae: * ''Aspasia (plant), Aspasia'' * ''Brassia'' * ''Caluera'' * ...

Oncidium
''Oncidium'', abbreviated as Onc. in the horticultural trade, is a genus that, , contains about 340 species of orchids from the subtribe Oncidiinae of the orchid family Orchidaceae. It is distributed across tropical and subtropical America from Mexico, Central America and the West Indies to northern Argentina, with one species (''O. ensatum'') extending into Florida. Common names for plants in this genus include dancing-lady orchid and golden shower orchid. A 2008 molecular phylogenetic study labeled the ''Oncidium'' alliance "grossly polyphyletic." In the same year, the American Orchid Society labeled the genus a "dumping ground".Lindleyana : The scientific journal of the American Orchid Society. December 2008 Pg 20 A consensus announced in April 2013 resulted in major taxonomic changes to ''Oncidium'', '' Gomesa'', '' Odontoglossum'', ''Miltonia'', and others. Much of this debate and subsequent housekeeping was initiated by significant research for the scientific publicat ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Aspasia (plant)
''Aspasia'', abbreviated as Asp. in the horticultural trade, is a genus of 7 species of orchids occurring from southern Mexico to southern Brazil. The genus is closely related to ''Miltonia'' and ''Brassia''. ''Aspasia'' species have few medium size flowers of exquisite colors which are occasionally cultivated or used to produce artificial hybrids. Distribution ''Aspasia'' exist in four different areas of Central and South America. Some species are exclusively epiphytic on thick stems of the trees a low height, others live on branches where they get more light and a few occasionally appear as lithophytes. Two species inhabit primarily Central America the most common is '' Aspasia epidendroides'', that ranges from Mexico to Colombia from sea level to 1,100 meters of altitude but much more common up to 400 meters; and the other is '' Aspasia principissa'', which exists from Colombia to Costa Rica, from sea level to 600 of altitude but often up to 150 meters. Exclusively from Colomb ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Brassia
''Brassia'' is a genus of orchids classified in the subtribe Oncidiinae. It is native to Mexico, Central America, the West Indies, and northern South America, with one species (''B. caudata'') extending into Florida. The genus was named after William Brass, a British botanist and illustrator, who collected plants in Africa under the supervision of Sir Joseph Banks. Its abbreviation in the horticultural trade is Brs. Description ''Brassia'' species and its popular hybrids are common in cultivation, and are notable for the characteristic long and spreading tepals (in some clones longer than 50 cm), which lend them the common name spider orchid. This epiphytic genus occurs in wet forests from sea level to altitudes under 1500 m, with the Peruvian Andes as its center of diversity. Occurrence is mostly restricted to a certain area, but ''Brassia caudata'' can be found over the whole geographic area. They have large elliptic-oblong pseudobulbs with one or two leaves at t ...
