Trevoria is a genus of orchids native to southeastern Central America and northwestern South America. It grows in intermediate temperature and is found from Nicaragua and Costa Rica to Bolivia.[2][3][4][5]

Trevoria was described by FC Lehmann in 1897.[6] A photo of this single plant is also in the new vol 6 of the book Native Colombian Orchids: Volume 6: Supplement: Leucohyle-Zootrophion (1998). The name is in honor of Sir Trevor Lawrence a specialist in orchids who at the time maintained one of the finest collections of orchids in England at his home Burford Lodge, in Surrey, and a former president of The Royal Horticultural Society.
