The orchids of Ethiopia are poorly represented in herbaria throughout the world and they remain poorly understood. This publication is to assist in clarifying the status of these plants of which many are now threatened. There are 167 species listed in 37 genera. 28 of the species are endemic to Ethiopia. There are distribution maps for all of the species listed, some line drawings and numerous colour photographs.
