Vandopsis, abbreviated as Vdps in horticultural trade, is a genus of orchids in the family Orchidaceae. It contains ca. 5 species found in Southeast Asia, Southern China, the Philippines , and New Guinea. Recently Vandopsis undulata was excluded, as the genus would otherwise be paraphyletic. The species was transferred to the genus Cymbilabia.[1]
