Genus
Phalaenopsis Blume; Bijdr. Fl. Ned. Ind. 294 (1825) s. l.
Distribution: SE-Asia to N-Australia and Pacific. The controversial inclusion of Kingidium has recently been accepted by several authors including Fl. of China. There are countless artifical garden hybrids (probably the most in any orchid genus) which are omitted here.
