By some Botanists, the name Goodyera is given up.

Goodyera (after John Goodyer, British botanist, who helped Johnson in his edition of Gerairde's Herbal). Orchidaceae, tribe Polychondrese. Dwarf terrestrial orchids of minor importance which are cultivated chiefly for their variegated foliage.

Leaves radical, usually reticulately veined: fls. in dense or loose spikes; labellum saccate; anther on the back of the column.—About 25 species. They have scapes 8-18 in. high at most. Difficult to grow; require shade. Includes the rattlesnake plantain.

G. dawsoniana and G. discolor. See Heemaria.— G. nuda. Thouars. Lvs. variegated: fls. whitish, with petals and midveins of sepals light brown. Mascarene Isls.—-G. quercicola. See Physurus.

By some Botanists, the name Goodyera is given up. The species referred to Goodyera are then by some authors placed in Peramium; by others the old application of the name Epipactis is used, and in that case what we have been calling Epipuctis goes in Serapias.
