Type: Anathallis fasciculata Barbosa Rodrigues (1877: 23)

Comments:— Anathallis species are easily recognized by the non-lepanthiform sheaths of the ramicaul, and the starshaped flower, with free perianth parts. The linear to lanceolate, acute to acuminate petals are similar to the sepals in size and shape. The sensitive lip is perpendicularly hinged to the column foot, and its general shape is linear-ligulate but frequently it has small lobes at the base and/or middle. The column is sharply winged and prominently fimbriate. The pollinaria come in pairs and have reduced flat caudicles. There are currently 118 accepted species of Anathallis , including the one added hereafter. They are distributed from western Mexico through Central America, the Antilles and down to Argentina. They are most diverse in Brazil at low to mid elevations.

Anathallis , as defined by Karremans (2014), is highly supported in our analyses and is modified only by the inclusion of the following species:
