4. E. cornutum (Lindl. in Hooker's Journal, 3. 86.) ; foliis 
gramineis lineari-lanceolatis acutissimis, racemo elongato 
cylindraceo cernuo, sepalis lineari-lanceolatis acuminatis

acutis, sepalis oblongo-lanceolatis, petalis linearibus, 
labelli trilobi cordati lobis lateralibus rotundatis : inter- 
medio lineari bilobo disco 3.carinato basi bituberculato, 
racemo elongato. —— Mexico. ——A Mexican species 
with green flowers like those of E. nutans, but not

longioribus (an semper ?), bracteis minimis mucronatis,

to E. ovalifolium, from which it differs in having three 
distinct raised lines on the lip, but no basal calli, and a 
very short raceme overtopped by the leaves. Flowers
