89 — PROFESSOR LINDLEY’S CONTRIBUTIONS TO 
short spur may almost as well be referred to the labellum as to 
the column. | 
196. C. MYSORENSIS; foliis oblongis petiolo longioribus, bracteis sub- 
ulatis ovario sequalibus, sepalis lineari-lanceolatis carinatis apiculatis, 
petalis planis minoribus? labello oblongo indiviso crispo apiculato 
intus nudo. 
Mysore, Law in hb. Stocks. (56). 
A plant with the habit of C. fusca, but widely different in the 
structure of the lip. Owing to the bad state of my specimen, I 
am uncertain whether the petals are really much shorter than the 
sepals, or not. 
197. C. SANGUINEA ; aphylla, discolor, tubere crasso oblongo arti- 
culato, scapo trivaginato, bracteis lineari-lanceolatis ovario longioribus, 
sepalis oblongo-lanceolatis, petalis ovatis brevioribus, labello obsolete 
trilobo apice rotundato recurvo, anthera mucronata. 
Sikkim, Cathcart ; at 4000-5000 feet, J. D. Н. (223 & 361). 
Plant from 1 foot to more than 2 feet high, of one uniform 
dull-greenish crimson tint, except the lip, which is rose-colour. 
The petals are not much more than $rds the length of the very 
acute sepals, which are rather more than 1 inch long. The inside 
of the lip is free from lamelle or other processes, but is obscurely 
papillose on all the veins. | 
There із а Cyrtopera from Sumatra with dense pyramidal га- 
cemes of dull-purple flowers among Professor DeVriese's drawings, 
where it is called Cymbidium geophilum ; but I have seen no spe- 
cimen. It seems to be different from this. 
SACCOLABIUM, Blume. 
198. S. guttatum, Lindl. Gen. & Sp. Orch. 220. 
Chittagong, Col. Fielding; Kamaon, in the Simai valley, J. D. Н. (185); 
Sikkim, in hot valleys, Id. (184). 
It may be doubted whether either Saccolabium Blumei (which 
is S. Eheedii of Wight’s Ic.), or S. macrostachyum (Sertum, Orch. 
t. 47), are distinct from this common species, notwithstanding the 
difference in the form of the middle lobe of their lip and some 
other circumstances. At least I have from Java a plant gathered 
by Mr. T. Lobb, which combines the premorse leaves of 5. gut- 
tatum with the short spike and retuse lip of S. Blwmei. 
199. S. cGURWALICUM ; subacaule, radicibus maximis compressis, foliis 
canaliculatis distichis truncatis spicis simplicibus longioribus, sepalis 
petalisque obtusis, labelli calcare late conico rotundato compresso
