Campylocentrum is a genus of rare orchids (family Orchidaceae) native to Mexico, the West Indies, Central America and South America.
[3] One species (C. pachyrrhizum) extends its range into Florida.
[2] Campylocentrum is likely pollinated by microlepidoptera and bees, in addition to flies, which may play a smaller role.
[5] It can be grown mounted on bark under moist conditions.
The species with functional leaves should be grown with additional moss, while the leafless species should be grown without it.
