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 namer of the basiosynonym, while Nelson is the namer 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.

Phaius Lour. 1790 SUBFAMILY Epidendroideae, TRIBE Arethuseae, SUBTRIBE Bletiinae.

This genus is composed of 30 species widespread through Madagascar to the Philippines and the Pacific Islands. It is a larger sized genus that for the most part has a pleasing vegetative appearance even out of bloom. They are mostly shade loving and terrestrial with a few epiphytes and generally like even watering [see individual species listing]. When in their growth phase weekly fertilizer is recommended year round. Phaius are sympodial and most often terrestrial, with highly variable plant size. The psuedobulbs are small with new growths arising from the base of the psuedobulb or from the rhizome. They have large plicate leaves that can be ruffled as well and generally have a pretty out of bloom appearance. The inflorescence arises from the base of the old psuedobulb or from the rhizome and has its flowers racemose at the end of the spike. Phaius in general have large showy flowers with a pleasant fragrance. New plants can be obtained from the old spikes, just lay the spike out in a plastic flat filled with sand and half cover them. Keep in a shady moist area and in 1-2 months the new plants will appear from the nodes of the spike. The Phaius from Madagascar are also listed in the genus Gastorchis and in the list below are noted with an !.

Phalaenopsis Blume 1825 SUBFAMILY Epidendroideae, TRIBE Vandeae, SUBTRIBE Aeridinae.

This is a vandaceous genus comprised of 45 to 50, mostly epiphytic and some lithophytic species spread throughout most all of Asia east of India and the Pacific to the Philippines and south to Australia. It is monopodial with large succulent, drooping leaves with short stems, giving rise off the stem from among the leaves to an inflorescence which can have a few to a hundred flowers with a distinct 3-lobed clawed lip. The parts of the Phalaenopsis flower are, column {#1}, lateral lobe of labellum {#2}, mid lobe of the labellum {#3}, labellum {#4}, dorsal sepal {#5}, petals {#6}, lateral sepal {#7} They grow best in pots with a wood media or from wood slat baskets hung sideways with two wires. They like good air circulation and a minimum of light.

Common Name or Meaning refers to being similar to a moth

Phragmipedium Rolfe 1896 SUBFAMILY Cypripedioideae

There are from 27 to 30 species species in this new world terrestrial or epiphytic genus found from Mid-Central America south to Mid-South America, with several being discovered in just the last 5 years. These tropical American species were removed from the Paphiopedilum in 1896 by Rolfe creating the genus Phragmipedium. They are sympodial plants with short stems, fibrous roots, with fan shaped groups of 6 to 8 coriaceous leaves that can become 3 feet long, that give rise to a central, erect, multi-flowered inflorescence with a free dorsal sepal, united lateral sepals that form into a synsepalum and the labellum is sac shaped or like a slipper. They like shady humid conditions with even water and fertilizer year round with plenty of air circulation.

Common Name or Meaning refers to the separated wall in the ovary

Physosiphon Lindley 1835 SUBFAMILY Epidendrodeae, TRIBE Epidendreae, SUBTRIBE Pleurothallidinae.

This genus consists of seven epiphytic species that are widespread from Mexico to Brazil. They basically resemble Pleurothallis in having elongate racemes of small but complex flowers from the leaf axils, they differ in having a sepaline tube. They also are related to Masdevallia but differ in having a racemose inflorescence and sepals that have relatively short, free lobes. They occur from elevations of sea level up to 9000 ft hence temperature and culture vary widely as to the location of an individual species.

Common Name or Meaning refers to the tube that the petals form
