Genus
Oberonia Lindl.; Gen. Sp. Orchid. Pl. 15 (1830)
Distribution: tropical Old World, mainly Malesia (New Guinea 90), some to S-China, Australia, Pacific to Tahiti, 1 Madagascar and tropical Africa. The species delimitation in this very speciose genus of inconspicuously flowering species is often unclear. Inclusion of Hippeophyllum: Geiger (2023). There are too many described species and there needs to be extensive synonymization (Geiger 2023)
