Trevoria was described by FC Lehmann in 1897.[https://www.biodiversitylibrary.org/page/25902383#page/381/mode/1up Lehmann, Friedrich Carl. 1897. Gardeners' Chronicle: a weekly illustrated journal of horticulture and allied subjects. ser. 3, 21: 345–346] A photo of this single plant is also in the new vol 6 of the book Native Colombian Orchids: Volume 6: Supplement: Leucohyle-Zootrophion (1998). The name is in honor of Sir Trevor Lawrence a specialist in orchids who at the time maintained one of the finest collections of orchids in England at his home Burford Lodge, in Surrey, and a former president of The Royal Horticultural Society.
