108. BOSSLEA paucifolia ; glabra, inermis, ramis compressis alatis, foliis 
paucis obovatis oblongis linearibusve, pedicellis folio brevioribus, legu- 
mine glabro latitudine pluries longiore. Bentham mss. 
A little Swan River bush, with winged branches, a few 
scattered obovate leaves, and yellow and brown flowers of by 
no means a striking appearance. I have been favoured with 
specimens by R. Mangles, Esq. of Sunning Hill, and by 
Messrs. Lowe and Co. of Clapton, and it has also flowered in 
the garden of the Horticultural Society. 
109. EPIDENDRUM (Euepidendrum ?) lacertinum ; floribus racemosis, ova- 
riis subsecundis longissimis pendulis bracteis setaceis multoties longiori- 
bus, sepalis lanceolatis acuminatis, petalis lineari-lanceolatis, labelli 
adnati trilobi basi bilamellati laciniis lateralibus triangularibus intermedia 
lineari acuminata elongata, anthera immersa, ovario cuniculato. 
A singular plant from Guatemala, for which I am obliged 
to Mr. Bateman. I have only seen the flowers; but as it is 
stated to have the habit of Galeandra Baueri it probably 
belongs to the section of this genus which I have called 
Euepidendrum. The flowers hang down on long stalk-like 
ovaries from one side of a short raceme. They are bright 
green with the exception of the column, which is yellow, and 
the lip which is a little stained with purple, and has very 
much the appearance of a lizard’s tail, the hind legs being 
outside the flower, and the head and shoulders buried within 
the cup. 
110. CYPRIPEDIUM (5. Acaulia) darbatum ; acaule, foliis coriaceis acutis 
canaliculatis maculatis, scapo pubescente, sepalo dorsali cuspidato obtuso 
ciliato margine revoluto, petalis lineari-oblongis subundulatis fimbriatis 
margine superiore verrucoso, stamine sterili lunato pubescente. 
A very fine herbaceous plant, allied to C. venustum, 
insigne, and purpuratum, gathered at Sincapore, on Mount 
Ophir by Mr. Cuming. It has flowers richly stained with 
purple, and streaked with green veins upon a white ground. 
It has flowered with Messrs. Leddiges. 
111. ORNITHOGALUM (Chlorogalum) divaricatum ; foliis glaucis longissi- 
mis canaliculatis humifusis, paniculé divaricata, perianthii laciniis line- 
aribus undulatis apice cohzerentibus mox patentibus, filamentis subulatis 
apice incurvis, ovarii loculis dispermis.
