'''''Dendrochilum''''' (abbreviation in trade journals ''Ddc.'') is a genus of about 300 [[epiphyte|epiphytic]], [[lithophyte|lithophytic]] and a few [[wiktionary:terrestrial |terrestrial]] species, belonging to the orchid family ([[Orchidaceae]]). The name of this genus is derived from the [[Greek language|Greek]] words ''dendron'' ("tree") and either ''cheilos'' ("lip") or ''chilos'' ("green food"), alluding to either their large lip or to their epiphytic growth. Many websites state a lesser number of species in this genus (varying between 100 and 150), but the authoritative World Checklist of Monocotyledons of [[Kew]] Botanical Bardens gives 390 records, including names that have become synonyms. Many of these orchids, actually 67, were named by [[Johannes Jacobus Smith]], an eminent Dutch botanist.

'''''Acoridium''''' <small>[[Christian Gottfried Daniel Nees von Esenbeck|Nees]] and [[Franz Julius Ferdinand Meyen|Meyen]], [[1843]]</small> and '''''Platyclinis''''' <small>[[George Bentham|Benth.]], [[1881]]</small> are [[synonymy|synonym]]s of this genus.

==Distribution==
They are distributed at higher elevations in humid [[rainforest]]s from southeast [[Asia]] to [[New Guinea]], [[Borneo]], [[Thailand]] and the [[Philippines]], but most species are to be found in Borneo or the Philippines.

==Description==
This genus has a wide variety of miniature, fragrant, star-shaped [[flower]]s that are generally produced in two rows on erect or arching pendant, many-flowered [[raceme]]s. These inflorescences can grow to a length of 50 cm (''Dendrochilum glumaceum''). Their stems contain ovoid to cylindrical, striped, sharply reduced [[pseudobulb]]s, about 4-10 cm long, with green to brown [[bract]]s at their base. Each carries one or two erect, though, lanceolate [[Leaf|leaves]], about 20 cm long, with narrow [[Petiole (botany)|petiole]]s. The elliptical leaves of ''Dendrochilum longifolium'' may grow to a length of 40 cm.

These orchids are popular among fans of non-traditional orchid curiosities.
