Bratonia
× Bratonia is a nothogenus (a hybrid genus name) for intergeneric crosses between the orchid genera Brassia and Miltonia, so it covers hybrid orchids rather than one species. Its members are grown for their showy flowers, and they are generally cultivated like Miltonia and Brassia, which are warm-to-intermediate epiphytic orchids.
× Bratonia, abbreviated Brat. in the horticultural trade, is the nothogenus for intergeneric hybrids between the orchid genera Brassia and Miltonia (Brs. × Milt.). An incorrect synonym for this nothogenus is × Miltassia (Mtssa.).
