H 135. ORCHIDACE®! EPIDENDREJ. 
Bankinsing Mountains (4. Henry, 896!); Szecuurn: Mount 
Omei (Faber, 952! 954!); Yunnan: Mengtze, mountains at 
6000-7000 ft. (Hancock, 217 !); 5000-5500 ft. (4. Henry, 
11105!); Honexone (Champion, 266!). Mus. Brit.; Herb. 
Kew. 
India, Malaya, and Japan. 
The specific name odorata is much older than paradoxa, under 
which the species is generally known. Ridley says ** L. odorata, 
Benth., Flora Hongkong. p. 352, sine dubio L. nervosa est," but 
in this I cannot agree. 
8. Liparis pauciflora, Rolfe, in Kew Bulletin (1896), p. 193. 
SzkcHUEN: BS. Wushan (A. Henry, 5675, 567541). Herb. 
Kew. 
Allied to the Indian L. rostrata, Reichb. f., which also has an 
ecallose lip and short bracts, though the Indian species has larger 
and more numerous flowers.

pp. 22, 509; Somoku Zusetsu, xviii. p. 21; Ridl. in Journ. Linn.

Formosa: Bankinsing Mountains (4. Henry, 138! 1627!); 
Honakone (Champion, 521!). Herb. Kew.

Ridley identifies the Hongkong plant (which he attributes to 
* Fortune ? ") with the Japanese one. 
10. Liparis yunnanensis, Aul/e, n. sp. 
Caules diphylli. Folia subcoriacea, elongato-lanceolata, acuta, 
basi attenuata, 10-15 poll. longa, 10-16 lin. lata. Scape graciles, 
1} poll. longi; racemi 6 poll. longi, multiflori. Bracteæ lineares, 
acuminatzs, 3-8 lin. longe. Pedicelli 5-8 lin. longi. Sepala 
lineari-lanceolata, acuta, 5-6 lin. longa. Petala anguste linearia, 
5-6 lin. longa. Labellum obovato-orbiculare, minutissime crenu- 
litum, 5 lin. latum, basi bituberculatum. Columna incurva, 
21-3 Jin. longa. 
Yunnan: Mengize, mountains at 5000 ft, among rocks 
(A. Henry, 1Q485!). Flowers yellow. Herb. Kew. 
This is allied to L. plantaginea, Lindl., of the section Corii- 
folie, but bas longer leaves, much narrower bracts, and narrower 
sepais; the unopened buds are also only half as stout. From 
L. latilabris, Rolfe, it differs in having fewer flowers, of twice 
the size.
