dentatis dentibus bis incisis, filamentis 3-14 unc. tantüm liberis crateri- 
formiter dispositis, stylo circiter biunciam excluso.—W. Herbert. 
This is one of Mr. Hartweg's discoveries ; but it is uncer- 
tain where the bulbs were found. Among the various forms 
of the genus it is known by the long cylinder of its crown, 
which gives it a sort of ** hose in hose" appearance, whence its 
specific name. It blossomed at Spofforth in April last. 
54. DENDROBIUM chlorops. _ 
D. chlorops ; caulibus teretibus, floribus laxé corymbosis, pedicellis filiformi- 
bus glaucescentibus, sepalis lineari-oblongis, petalis duplo latioribus 
obovatis, labelli trilobi plani lobis lateralibus nanis acutis intermedio 
lineari-oblongo apice pauló latiore basi villoso, cornu brevi conico. 
A species from Bombay, with the habit of D. Heyneanum. 
It has small flowers of a pale nankin colour, while the base of 
the lip is a light pea green ; this gives the flower the appear- 
ance of having a green eye, whence the specifie name. It 
has lately flowered with Messrs. Loddiges. 
55. CATASETUM ochraceum. 
C. ochraceum ; sepalis petalisque ovatis secundis, labello cucullato integer- 
rimo levi apice in rostrum brevem latum obtusum carnosum contracto, 
cirrhis brevibus. 
A new species in the way of C. luridum, with deep yellow 
ochre-coloured flowers. The lip is hooded, but contracted at 
the point into a kind of beak, thick at the edges and short. 
Mr. Hartweg sent it to the Horticultural Society from the 
Hacienda del Hospicio, in the province of Bogota. | 
56. BOLBOPHYLLUM Cheiri. 
B. Cheiri ; folis oblongis coriaceis basi canaliculatis apice emarginatis, 
floribus solitariis (magnis), sepalis lanceolatis lateralibus basi ventricosis 
petalisque e lata basi linearibus acuminatis in manüs speciem velut 
digiti conniventibus, labello mobili basi ovato concavo apice longé ros- 
trato, columnä edentulä, polliniis 4 geminatis. 
This very singular species was sent from Manilla to 
Mr. Loddiges, with whom it blossomed a few days since. 
The flowers are very large for the genus, the sepals being as 
much as an inch and a half long,a clear olive green, neatly
