32 1835. ORCHIDACEX: VANDEX, 
flowers, Ihave not seen wild Chinese specimens, but there is 
a fine coloured drawing from that country in the collection of 
drawings at Kew. It appears to be common in the Khasia 
Hills. The Ceylon plant has slightly narrower leaves. 
9. Cymbidium sp. 
Formosa: South Cape (A. Henry, 13521). Herb. Kew. 
Allied to C. pendulum, Sw., but with leaves less than half as 
broad. The specimen is in fruit, and the two remaining flowers 
have lost their lips. 
1. Geodorum dilatatum, R. Br. in Ait. Hort. Kew. ed. 2, v. 
p. 207: Lodd. Bot. Cab. t. 1797 ; Bot. Reg. t. 675; Lindl. Gen.

Geodorum fucatum, Lindl. Bot. Reg. t. 1687 ; Fol. Orch., Geod. y. 2. 
— Yunnan: Hsinkai, Red River, in shady woods (A. Henry, 
11103 !), Flowers white; Honaxone (Ford!) Herb. Kew. 
India and Ceylon. 
There has been some confusion between this and the allied 
species, and Lindley considered the above-cited names to 
represent two distinct species, though I fail to separate them. 
It is quite possible that plants belonging to the allied G. pur- 
pureum, R. Br., may be included in some of the above references.

1. Plocoglottis ? sp. 
SZECHUEN: Mount Omei, at 4000 ft. (Faber, 947!). Herb. 
Kew. 
Apparently belongs to this genus, but all the flowers are 
badly eaten.
