Leaves conduplicate in the bud: pseudobulbs evident: infl. originating above the annual leafy axis, 1-2-fld.; sepals and petals subequal, spreading, the lateral sepals forming a mentum with base of the column; labellum movably joined to the base of the column.—About 10 species in Brazil. It is one of the many genera formerly united with Zygopetalum. For cult., see Zygopetalum.
