The current and past taxonomic status of Chloraeinae is presented; concepts of subtribe origin are also discussed. Two genera are described as new to science: Chileorchis Szlach., gen. nov., Correorchis Szlach., gen. nov. and six new combinations at the species level are validated. Two other genera, Bieneria Rchb.f. and Ulantha Hook., are reinstated. Additionally, a key to genera of Chloraeinae is provided.
