Corybas is a genus of orchids (family Orchidaceae). As of May 2014[update], the World Checklist of Selected Plant Families accepts about 130 species native to Australia, New Zealand, New Guinea, Southeast Asia, the Himalayas, southern China, numerous islands in the Pacific, and a few sub-Antarctic islands between Australia and the Antarctic.[1]
The name of the genus is derived from the Greek κορύβαντος (korybantos),[2] a male dancer, shown in illustrations wearing a crested helmet, who worshipped the goddess Cybele.

Nematoceras is a genus of orchids (family Orchidaceae), sometimes known as spider orchids, helmet orchids or spidery helmet-orchids, found mainly in New Zealand and its subantarctic islands, with two species on Australia’s Macquarie Island. The genus was absorbed by Corybas for a long period before being reinstated, but now it is accepted back into Corybas. Such is the nature of the turmoil in orchid taxonomy.
