Inappendiculate

D. reticulata (Blum l.c.) leaves 3-nerved, besides the 2 marginal nervules, ovate-oblong, acuminated, rounded at the base, or somewhat cordate, reticulated beneath and covered with ochraceous dots; panicles terminal; calyx almost quite entire; anthers fixed by the back, furnished with somewhat rhomboid, inappendiculate connectives.

This subtribe is distinguished from the Erieae mainly by the terminal inflorescence, from the Coelogyneae by the pollinia being usually free and inappendiculate, and by the usually more slender, dwarfer habit and the I-leaved or leafless stems.

Sporophore obsolescent or altogether wanting; conidia simple, hyaline or fuscous, inappendiculate, globose to oblong.
