'''''Govenia''''' Lindl. [[1832]], is a genus of plants belonging to the family [[Orchidaceae]]. The type species, Govenia superba, was transferred from Maxillaria superba and a genus name was given to commemorate J.R. Goven, a horticulturist & orchid collector from England who collected throughout Central Mexico.
The species in this genus are terrestrial or sometimes epiphytic and native to [[North America|North]], [[Central America|Central]] and [[South America]]. This genus has cormous, egg-shaped pseudobulbs and thin, plicate leaves that are always paired. According to the [[Royal Horticultural Society]], ''Gov.'' is the official abbreviation for this genus.
