105. CIRRHOPETALUM Macrai. Lindl. Gen. & Sp. Orch. no. 6. 
This plant has been obtained from Ceylon by Messrs. 
Loddiges (175). It has dull brownish yellow sepals, and 
purple petals, which are falcate with the point turned 
forwards. Many of the other species are prettier.

This little species was originally described from a speci- 
men brought from India by Dr. Wallich, who had received it 
from Mr. Finlayson without a locality. It was then gathered 
at Sincapore by Mr. Cuming, from whom we have some 
fragments ; and it has lately flowered with Messrs. Loddiges 
(204). It has oval pseudobulbs tapering at the base into a 
stalk and terminated by a pair of leaves about four inches 
long. ‘The flowers are in spikes, which in Messrs. Loddiges 
specimen proceeded from the side of the pseudobulbs, but 
which also appear to be terminal; they are dull clayey- 
yellow of no great beauty. 
107. MORMODES lineatum (Bateman in litt.) ; sepalis petalisque oblongo- 
linearibus abrupté acutis margine reflexis, labello lineari incurvo carnoso 
sparsim piloso versus basin utrinque dente nunc brevi nunc elongata 
aucto, columnee dorso et margine pubescente. 
This curious species is a native of Guatemala, whence it 
has been sent by both Mr. Skinner and Mr. Hartweg. It 
has dull olive-green flowers, striped and spotted with dull 
brown. It is very distinct from the rest of the genus, but by 
no means pretty. The lip has two lateral lebes which vary in 
length from half a line to two lines. 3
