Miltonia flavescens, the yellowish miltonia, is a species of orchid occurring in southern Brazil, northeastern Argentina, and Paraguay, and has been reported from eastern Peru. [1]
Brassia is a genus of orchids classified in the subtribe Oncidiinae. It is native to Mexico, Central America, the West Indies, and northern South America, with one species extending into Florida.
The Oncidiinae is a subtribe within the Orchidaceae that consists of a number of genera that are closely related.
Miltonia, abbreviated Milt. in the horticultural trade, is an orchid genus comprising twelve epiphyte species and eight natural hybrids. The miltonias are exclusively inhabitants of Brazil, except for one species whose range extends from Brazil into the northeast of Argentina and the east of Paraguay.
Odontoglossum, first named in 1816 by Karl Sigismund Kunth, is a formerly accepted genus of orchids that is now regarded as a synonym of Oncidium. Several hundred species have previously been placed in Odontoglossum. The scientific name of the genus is derived from the Greek words odon (tooth) and glossa (tongue), referring to the two tooth-like calluses on the base of the lip. Species formerly placed in this genus are cool to cold growing orchids to be found on open spots in the humid cloud forest at higher elevations from Central- and West South America to Guyana, with most species around the northern Andes. The abbreviation for this genus is Odm. in the horticultural trade. Many of the species formerly placed in the genus are in great demand with orchid lovers because of their spectacular and flamboyant flowers.
× Miltonidium, abbreviated as Mtdm. in the horticultural trade, is the nothogenus for hybrids between the orchid genera Miltonia and Oncidium.
M. flavescens may refer to:
× Beallara, abbreviated Bllra. in the horticultural trade, is the nothogenus for intergeneric hybrids between the orchid genera Brassia, Cochlioda, Miltonia and Odontoglossum.
× Burrageara, abbreviated Burr. in the horticultural trade, is the nothogenus for intergeneric hybrids between the orchid genera Cochlioda, Miltonia, Odontoglossum and Oncidium. It was grown for the first time by the American Albert Burrage in 1927, and named after him.
Miltoniopsis vexillaria is a species of epiphytic orchid in the genus Miltoniopsis.
Miltonia candida, the snow-white miltonia, is a species of orchid endemic to southeastern Brazil.
Miltonia clowesii, the Clowes' miltonia, is a species of orchid endemic to southeastern Brazil.
Miltonia cuneata, the wedge-shaped miltonia, is a species of orchid endemic to southeastern Brazil. Found in Brazil at elevations around 800 to 1000 meters in dense, wet montane forests as a robust, medium sized, creeping, warm to cool growing epiphyte with slightly tapered, slightly flattened pseudobulbs that can be clustered or well spaced and are enveloped basally by 2 to 4 non-foliaceous sheaths and carry 2 to 3, narrow, acute leaves that blooms in the winter and early spring on a erect or arching, to 2' [60 cm] long, few to several [5 to 8] flowered inflorescence with triangular, acute, papery bracts.
Miltonia flava is a species of orchid endemic to Brazil.
Miltonia moreliana is a species of orchid endemic to southeastern Brazil.
Miltonia regnellii, the Regnell's miltonia, is a species of orchid occurring in southeastern and southern Brazil. The specific epithet honors Anders Fredrik Regnell, a Swedish botanist who practiced in Brazil.
Miltonia russelliana, the Russell's miltonia, is a species of orchid occurring in southeastern and southern Brazil.
Miltonia spectabilis, the outstanding miltonia, is a species of orchid occurring in extreme eastern Brazil and has been erroneously reported to occur in Venezuela. It is the type species of the genus Miltonia.
Miltonia phymatochila, synonym Phymatochilum brasiliense, is an orchid species native to northeast and southeast Brazil. It is an inhabitant of the Serra do Mar mountains. It vegetatively resembles Oncidium species rather than other Miltonia species and was at one time placed as the only species in the genus Phymatochilum.
