163. EPIDENDRUM Coen latilabrum; foliis ovatis obtusis bre- 
vivaginantibus internodiis seepé brevioribus, sepalis petalisque angustio- 
ribus lineari-oblongis obtusis patentibus, labello repando sublobato emar- 
ginato feré 4-pld latiore quam longo, pedunculis bifloris sessilibus. 
A Brazilian plant, allied to Epidendrum umbellatum, of 
which it has the habit. But its lip, which is four times 
broader than long, and curved downwards on each side, so as 
to bear no little resemblance to a stiffly starched lady’s apron, 
gives it a most singular appearance. I have long been ac- 
quainted with it through specimens in Sir W. Hooker’s 
Herbarium; that now before me is from the collection of 
Messrs. Loddiges. 
164. EULOPHIA squalida; foliis lato-ensiformibus 5-nerviis, spica multi- 
flor’ floribus inferioribus remotioribus, bracteis ovatis acuminatis ovario 
acutangulo brevioribus, labello oblongo trilobo laciniis rotundatis inter- 
media crisp emarginata calva venis pluribus parallelis elevatis, calcare 
brevi, anther’ obsoleté emarginata, 
A terrestrial Orchidaceous plant of no beauty, brought 
home by Cuming. It has leaves like those of a Bletia, and 
a stout erect scape 11 foot high, with dingy pallid flowers, the 
lowermost of which are very remote from the uppermost 
The lip has no appendages, but is strongly marked by elevated 
veins, and it is entirely confluent with the column at the 
base. Lately flowered by Messrs. Loddiges. 
165. DENDROBIUM (Eudendrobium) excisum ; foliis lineari-oblongis ob- 
liqué retusis, floribus (solitariis ?) oppositifoliis basi squamatis, sepalis 
petalisque acuminatis, labello oblongo acuto carnoso basi utrinque ex- 
ciso: disco laté glanduloso, cornu pedicello feré duplo breviore. 
A small species with the habit of D. pulchellum, but with 
white inconspicuous flowers. It is a native of Sincapore, 
whence it was brought by Mr. Cuming. It has flowered with 
Messrs. Loddiges (No. 331). ‘The nearest affinity is with 
D. revolutum and calcaratum. 
166. BOLBOPHYLLUM clandestinum; rhizomate repente squamis mem- 
branaceis cucullatis vestito distanter pseudo-bulbifero, pseudo-bulbis 
minimis 1-2-phyllis, foliis mucronulatis oblongis carnosis dorso convexis, 
October, 1841.—K. 1
