'''Ascocentrum''' is a small genus belonging to the orchid family (]). The type species is ''Ascocentrum miniatum'' (Lindl.) Schltr. ex J. J. Sm. (originally as ''Saccolabium miniatum'' Lindl.)

These monopodial ] orchids grow on deciduous trees. They have a short, simple to bifurcate stem (max. 15-18 cm) with an upright, compact, conical to racemose inflorescence, consisting of smaller brightly colored ]s. These flowers have a prominent spur and a strap-like lip. Their bright colors vary between yellow, orange, red, ] or cerise
