black.” Hongkong Herb. 3544. 
This species somewhat resembles L. pauciflora, Rolfe, in habit and foliage, 
but has a much stouter, densely-flowered scape, and flowers about twice as 
large. The colour as recorded is unusual, and is not retained in the dried 
flowers. [I did not see these plants in a fresh state and cannot confirm the 
peculiar colour, but it was stoutly averred by the Chinese collector to be as 
stated.—S. T. D.J
