Three new species: Angraecum archangelicum, A. polyphemus and A. rotundifolium are described for the first time. Pectinariella is evaluated; a case is made to keep it at subgeneric level and the necessary two new combinations are made. Angraecum dasycarpum is neotypified. Finally A. ochraceum and A. setipes are compared with the latter being reduced to a synonym of the former.
