APPENDIX. 
The following additional notes on my monograph of the genus 
Liparis are based upon material which has since come before me. 
L. chloroxantha, Hance! is L. plicata, Franchet ! 
L. elegans, Lindl. Orch. Pl. p. 30.—Mr. Rolfe showed me 
at Kew a living flower-spike of what he considered to be the 
plant intended by Lindley for this species. I have little doubt 
that he is correct in his surmise. The plant is quite distinct 
from any described in my paper, unless Z. Stricklandiniana, 
Reichb. f., which I have not seen, be a synonym. There are also 
specimens in fruit collected by Maingay in Malaya, both in the 
herbaria of the British Museum and Kew, which I had been 
hitherto unable to refer to any species. I append an emended 
description.
