Ophidion (plant)

Ophidion is a genus of flowering plant in the family Orchidaceae, native to Panama to western South America and Venezuela. The genus was established by Carlyle A. Luer. It has been included in a broad circumscription of Phloeophila, but there is evidence that it forms a monophyletic taxon, and it is accepted by Plants of the World Online.
