Not a complete list but covers the varieties most commonly seen in cultivation.
These changes occurred when the RHS nomenclature committee revised the generic names of several orchid genera in the Oncidinae complex.
Namely:
Odontoglossum became Oncidium
Cochlioda became Oncidium
Rossioglossum became Rhyncostele
Oncidium (varicosum type) became Gomesa
What was:
Alexanderara is now Brassidium
Adaglossum = Brassidium
Brasada = Brassia
Beallara = Aliceara
Burrageara = Miltonidium
Brasada = Brassia
Colmanara = Oncostele (if made with Rhyncostele)
Degarmoara = Aliceara
Maclellanara = Brassidium
Miltassia = Bratonia
Odontioda = Oncidium
Odontocidium = Oncidium
Odontonia = Miltonidium or Oncidopsis
Stewartara = Brassidium
Vuylstekeara = Miltonidium or Oncidopsis
Wilsonara = Oncidium
These are the ones that effect most of the Oncidinae hybrids we grow and sell.
