Nomenclature of some species in tribe Neottieae and subtribe Goodyerinae (Orchidaceae) from China and Taiwan are revised according to recently published phylogenetic and taxonomic studies. As Listera is now included in Neottia, 2 new names (N. fukuyamae and N. chenii) and 3 new combinations (N. fangii, N. fugongensis and N. microphylla) are proposed. The recently described Chamaegastrodia nanlingensis is transferred to Odontochilus based on its floral morphology. The new name, O.guangdongensis, is proposed to prevent homonymy after the combination.
