'''Vanilloideae''' (Lindley) Szlachetko, is one of the subfamilies of orchids belonging to the large family [[Orchidaceae]]. Lindley used to treat it as a separate family Vanillaceae, but it is now recognized as a distinct subfamily. But, from a molecular point of view, it is rather a sister to subfamily [[Epidendroideae]] + subfamily [[Orchidoideae]].
The subfamily Vanilloideae consists of 15 genera and about 180 species, belonging to the tribes Pogoniinae and Vanillinae,
Their appearance is pantropical, esp. Asia; Australia, some North America.
The species in the tribe Pogoniinae have a characteristic laciniate lip margin. The color of their [[petal]]s and [[sepal]]s is pink or rarely white or bluish. Their sepals have an oblong, elliptic, or narrowly lanceolate form.
The species in the tribe Vanilleae are long plants characterized by long, thick, succulent [[vine]]s and a lip without spur.
