Ancistrochilus
Ancistrochilus is a genus of the orchid family (Orchidaceae), comprising only 2 species. The name is derived from the Greek words ankistron ("hook") and cheilos ("lip"), referring to the form of the lip. These two species are cool to hot growing orchids, found from tropical West Africa to Tanzania and Uganda. They grow on tree trunks and large branches at elevations between 500 and 1100 m. These are sympodial epiphytic plants with wide, characteristic conical or pyriform pseudobulbs, carrying two to three broad, acute, lanceolate leaves. These leaves are shed after growth has slowed down.
