Epidendrum subsect. UmbellataRchb.f. (1861) is a subsection of section E. sect. PlanifoliaRchb.f. (1861) of subgenus E. subg. EpidendrumLindl. (1841) of the genus Epidendrum of the Orchidaceae. Plants of E. subsect. Umbellata differ from the other subsections of E. sect. Planifolia by producing inflorescences which are umbel-like. In 1861, Reichenbach recognized ten species in this subsection. Of these, nine are recognized with the same names by Kew :
Epidendrum subsect. Racemosa is a subsection belonging to section E. sect. Planifolia of subgenus E. subg. Epidendrum within the orchid family Orchidaceae. Plants classified under Racemosa differ from other subsections of E. sect. Planifolia in their production of raceme-like inflorescences. In 1861, Reichenbach identified 26 species within this subsection. These names correspond to 25 species currently recognized in the World Checklist of Selected Plant Families :
Epidendrum sect. Holochila Rchb.f. 1861 is a section of subgenus Epidendrum subg. Amphiglottium of the Orchidaceae. It differs from section E. sect. Polycladia by bearing inflorescences that are racemes, not panicles. It differs from section E. sect. Schistochila by having a lip with no lobes. Like the other sections of E. subg. Amphiglottium, plants of E. sect. Holochila exhibit slender stems covered with close imbricating sheaths which do not swell to form pseudobulbs, and terminal inflorescences covered at the base with close imbricating sheaths but without spathes.
