Oeceoclades, collectively known as the monk orchids, is a genus of flowering plants from the orchid family, Orchidaceae. It is related to Eulophia and like that genus is mostly terrestrial in habit. A few species extend into very arid environments, unusual for an orchid.
The genus contains about 40 known species, widespread across much of sub-Saharan Africa and the islands of the Indian Ocean. Many of the species are endemic to Madagascar. One species (O. maculata) has become naturalized in Mexico, South America, Central America, the West Indies and Florida.[2][3][4][5] In Florida and several other places, O. maculata is considered an invasive weed.[6][7]
