More than 300 species are covered in depth with hundreds of qulaity colour photos and technical drawings with numerous species photos never before been published in other books. The main chapter includes rare species of Bulbophyllum, Coelogyne, Dendrobium with details on growth and flower habits, measurements. counties of distribution etc. Before the main chapter, floristic observations are provided on the morphological boundaries of the remaining Coelogyninae genera accompanied by many colour photos of species from these genera including Brachisepalum, Chelonistele, Dendrochilum, Dickasonia, Nabaluia, Geesinkorchis, Panisea, Gynoglotis etc. One new Coelogyne species Coelogyne superba is described as new with many colour photos and technical illustrations.
