Orchidaceae Juss.
Aerides [infragenus] Ornithochilus Lindl. , legitimate, scientific
Lindley, J. (May 1833), The Genera and Species of Orchidaceous Plants: 242 BHL [tax. nov.]
  • Comment: Lindley attributes this subdivision of the genus Aerides to "Wallich" but also cites "Ornithochilus fuscus. Wallich ic." in synonymy under Aerides difformis. Since this indicates Wallich had used the designation "Ornithochilus" at generic rank the authorship of the subdivision is here attributed to Lindley alone, following ICN Art. 46.4 (Shenzhen Code, 2018).
