MR. J. G. BAKER ON THE FLORA OF FIJI. 373 
Sepala 2°5 em. et mentum l5 cm. longum. Flores pallide virescentes, 
labello rubro punctato. 
. This is a very near ally of D. Veitehiamum, Lindl., which on 
account of its small leaves, broader sepals, obtuse petals, and very 
broad mid-lobe of labellum, I venture to think distinct from 
D. macrophyllum, Rich. D. Gordoni seems intermediate between 
the two, having much of the vegetative character of Veitehianum, 
with the acuminate sepals and petals of macrophyllum ; from this 
latter also its much less deeply 3-lobed and apparently smaller 
labellum is an excellent distinguishing feature. What the shape 
of the callus in macrophyllum is I do not know, that species 
not being represented in the Kew Collection; I have, however, 
compared the callus of our labellum with that of Veitchianum, 
which latter stands up abruptly as a 3-lobed tooth, and is entirely 
different from the equally horizontally 3-keeled callus of Gordoni. 
Hab. Samoa, in a large swamp at about 1500 feet above the 
sea-level in Upolu on Pandani, also in Viti Levu, on Dammara trees 
at Babuca, Horne 942! 
Dernprostium (S Evpenprosium) Horner (Horne, ‘A Year in 
Fiji,’ p. 260).

simis siccitate crebre nervosis 7—10 cm. longis, spicis elongatis compressis 
sparsissime squamigeris apice paucifloris, bracteis parvis ovatis carinulatis, 
anthophorum gracile glabrum, floribus mediocribus, sepalis ac petalis simi- 
libus (petalis vero paullo minoribus) lineari-lanceolatis acuminatis, labello 
quam perianthii segmenta paullo breviore ovato-oblongo circiter ad medium

This species apparently comes nearest D. Tokai, Reichb..f., 
from which it is, however, abundantly distinct. 
Hab. Island of Rabi, Fiji, on trees on the shore, Horne!
