Transferred to Orthochilus[]

After a molecular phylogeny published in 2014 revealed that the genus Eulophia was paraphyletic unless a clade containing Orthochilus was recognized, 34 species and one subspecies were transferred to the resurrected genus Orthochilus, which included many Eulophia and all Pteroglossaspis taxa. This reduced the number of Eulophia species from 201 to 165. The authors also suggested recognizing Oeceoclades pulchra instead of Eulophia pulchra. The taxa formerly recognized in Eulophia include:[2]

  • , formerly Eulophia abyssinica
  • , formerly Eulophia aculeata
  • , formerly Eulophia adenoglossa
  • , formerly Eulophia albobrunnea
  • , formerly Eulophia aurantiaca
  • , formerly Eulophia carsonii
  • , formerly Eulophia chlorantha
  • , formerly Eulophia clandestina
  • , formerly Eulophia corymbosa
  • , formerly Eulophia distans
  • Orthochilus ecristatus, formerly Eulophia ecristata
  • Orthochilus ensatus, formerly Eulophia ensata
  • , formerly Eulophia euantha
  • , formerly Eulophia eustachya
  • , formerly Eulophia foliosa
  • , formerly Eulophia holubii
  • , formerly Eulophia leontoglossa
  • , formerly Eulophia litoralis
  • Orthochilus mechowii, formerly Eulophia mechowii
  • , formerly Eulophia milnei
  • , formerly Eulophia montis-elgonis
  • , formerly Eulophia nuttii
  • , formerly Eulophia odontoglossa
  • , formerly Pteroglossaspis pittsii
  • , formerly Eulophia rara
  • , formerly Eulophia rutenbergiana
  • , formerly Eulophia ruwenzoriensis
  • , formerly Eulophia subulata
  • , formerly Eulophia tabularis
  • , formerly Eulophia thomsonii
