Guatemala. Flowers on long slender scapes, paie green except the 
lip, which is white with green warts. The pseudo-bulbs are rounder at 
the edge, and more furrowed than is usual in this genus.

A fine species with broad leaves, and large greenish yellow flowers spotted 
with green ; they vary greatly in size; in Mr. Hartweg's wild specimens 
from the Chono they are very small, in a specimen found by Mr. Skinner 
at San Salvador twice as large, in the plant figured in the Botanical 
Magazine larger still, and in a specimen before me from the garden of 
the Horticultural Society they are considerably larger than even the last. 
In the gardens the name of Br. Wrayee is also applied to B. brachiata, a 
far handsomer species.

angustis compressis diphyllis, foliis obtusis racemo multifloro brevioribus, 
bracteis patentibus squameeformibus, sepalis petalisque brevioribus linea-

acuminato crispo, lamellis baseos bidentatis obtusis. —— Guatemala. 
A most noble species, with very large flowers, having brown spots on a 
pale ground. In a specimen which flowered with Mr. Bateman the 
lower sepals were fully five inches long. The lip is much waved at the 
edge, and rather lobed. It is sometimes called B. Wraye. 
B. aristata; racemo secundo nutante multifloro, sepalis linearibus strictis 
acuminatis lateralibus labello quadrupló longioribus, petalis ex ovatá 
basi acuminatis aristatis, labello obovato basi angustato sub apice aristato 
secus medium verrucoso : lamellis baseos glabris apice liberis divergen- 
tibus rotundatis. Guatemala. Flowers the smallest in the genus, 
apparently whole-coloured. Very distinct in the petals, ending in bristle 
oints, and in the presence of a distinct awn beneath the point of the 
labellum. Only known to me by a dried specimen from Mr. Skinner, 
without leaves. 
B. peruviana (Pöppig & Endl. gen. & sp. 2. p. 12. t. 117.) ; foliis elon- 
gatis acutissimis, “ sepalis anguste linearibus acuminatissimis aequalibus; 
floribus resupinatis, labello oblongo lanceolato acuto undulato crenulato" 
sepalis subzequali.— Peru, in dry thickets on the eastern face of the 
Andes, in the district of Chihuamccala, towards Cuchero. The 
flowers are represented as growing in one-sided spikes, not exceeding ten 
in number, about an inch apart, yellowish-green spotted with purple. 
B. maculata (Brown. in Hort. Kew. 5. 215. Bot. Mag. t. 1691.); se- 
palis petalisque linearibus acuminatis sequalibus, labello postico sub- 
rotundo.——Jamaica.——Sepals and petals dull olive brown, with 
purple blotches. Lip cream colour, very large, spotted with purple.
