Arachnis Blume (1825: 365) . Type species: Arachnis flos-aeris (L.) Rchb.f.
Arachnanthe Blume (1849: 55) View in CoL . Type species: Arachnanthe moschifera (Blume) Blume
Armodorum Breda (1827 View in CoL , t. 6). Type species: Armodorum distichum Breda View in CoL
Arhynchium Lindley & Paxton (1851: 142) View in CoL . Type species: Arhynchium labrosum Lindl. & Paxton
Esmeralda Reichenbach (1874: 38) View in CoL . Type species: Esmeralda cathcartii (Lindl.) Rchb. f.
Species of Arachnis s.s., Esmeralda View in CoL and A. labrosa (Lindl. & Paxton) Rchb. f. (which has often been included in Armodorum View in CoL ) form a strongly supported clade. As these genera differ mainly in lip morphology, which putatively tends to be under selection pressure, we consider it preferable to unite them in a more broadly circumscribed Arachnis . On the other hand, a few species previously included in Arachnis based on similarities in lip morphology are not closely related to the type of the genus; they are here transferred to Dimorphorchis View in CoL .
