× Vascostylis

× Vandachostylis, abbreviated Van. in the horticultural trade,[1] is the nothogenus for intergeneric hybrids between the orchid genera Rhynchostylis and Vanda (Rhy. × V.). It is now the accepted name for several former hybrid genera, such as × Vascostylis and × Neostylis, since Ascocentrum and Neofinetia are now both synonymous with Vanda.[2][3]

The Vandachostylis genus was created in 1922 by a German botanist Rudolf Schlechter.[4]
