Acianthera ochreata

Acianthera is a genus of orchids native to the tropical parts of the Western Hemisphere,^[1] especially Brazil.^[2] It was first described in 1842^[3] but was not widely recognized until recently. Most of the species formerly placed under Pleurothallis subgenus Acianthera. This splitting is a result of recent DNA sequencing.

As of 2010 there are approximately 200 species in this genus.^[2]
