Sudamerlycaste × Tornemezae

''Sudamerlycaste'' is a genus of flowering plants in the family Orchidaceae. It consists of approximately 45 species. The genus was split off from '' Lycaste'' in 2002 by Fredy Archila.

Taxonomy

Species in ''Lycaste'' that were endemic to South America and the Caribbean Islands were placed into the new genus ''Sudamerlycaste'' and those found in Mexico and Central America stayed in ''Lycaste''. As a result of this change most of the species previously found in the ''Lycaste'' section ''Fimbriatae'' were then moved to the genus ''Sudamerlycaste''. Species are either epiphytes or terrestrial. In 2003 Henry Oakeley and Angela Ryan published the genus name ''Ida'' to accommodate South American and Caribbean plants previously placed in ''Lycaste''. Their description included the type species of ''Sudamerlycaste'', ''Lycaste andreettae''. This renders ''Ida'' an illegitimate name.
