Annam: Recent importation. 
The present species is distinct from all of them, and perhaps most 
resembles C. Micholitziana in habit, though the flower is nearer to C. 
speciosa in size, and borne on a taller scape. C. psittacina is of more 
robust habit, but has smaller flowers of ditferent colour, and the scapes 
are produced from the young growths, not from the mature bulbs, as in 
C. Lawrenceana. 
The latter has light buff-yellow sepals and petals, while the front 
lobe of the lip is cream-white, and the disc deep orange in front and 
bright yellow near the base. There are five keels on the disc of the lip 
in front, which are much fimbriated and tipped with brown, while the 
inner three extend down to the base.
