Dendrobieae is a tribe in the subfamily Epidendroideae, in the family Orchidaceae.[1] The Dendrobieae are mostly tropical, epiphytic orchids which contain pseudobulbs.
The tribe contains two genera, Dendrobium and Bulbophyllum, which are both among the largest genera of orchids, and are common in cultivation. Previously, other genera were included in the tribe, which are now subsumed in Dendrobium and Bulbophyllum.
