As far as I understand it, Bulbos and Pleurothallids are somewhat closely related, not quite the same alliance, but the next best thing.
That Bulbo is way too cool. I think Bulbophyllum, Cirrhopetalum (and others in Bulbo alliance)and Masdevallia are the coolest orchid genera in the family, along with Restripia, Dracula.
