78. WARREA bidentata. 
W. bidentata; bracteis pedicello 4-plo brevioribus, labelli apice bidentati 
venis valdé convexis flabellatis lamellis altis intermedià duplö majore. 
At first sight we took this for Warrea tricolor. Its lip is 
however regular, slit at the end, the veins are much more con- 
vex, and the central plates thinner and deeper than in that 
species. The bracts too are not half the length. Sent from 
the Caraccas to Sigismund Rucker, Esq. with whom it 
flowered in the beginning of September. 
79. ERIA vestita. 
(Dendrobium vestitum, Wall. Cat. no. 9005.  Lindl. gen. 
$ sp. no. 33.) 
E. caulibus pendulis villis deciduis densé vestitis, foliis coriaceis lanceolatis

racemis elongatis multifloris flexuosis bracteis ovatis coriaceis persis- 
tentibus floribus capsulisque villosis, sepalis lanceolatis lateralibus in

brevioribus glabris, labelli trilobi laciniis lateralibus obtusis intermedia 
subrotundä crispá emarginatä pilosá per axin lined elevatá interruptá

This singular plant, with the structure of a woolly Eria, 
and the habit of a pendulous Dendrobium, is a native of the 
Indian Archipelago. Dr. Wallich's collectors had it from 
Sincapore, and Mr. Cuming sent it from Manilla (?) to 
Messrs. Loddiges. It is singularly clothed with a thick 
reddish brown hairiness. The flowers are reddish brown 
externally, white inside, and hang down in pendulous spikes, 
which are longer than the leaves. 
80. AMARYLLIS Slateriana. 
(Herbert MSS. Amaryllis. Banksiana, supra 1842. t. 11.) 
In the opinion of the Dean of Manchester this is not the 
plant to which he. gave the name of Banksiana in his work 
on Amaryllidacez (p. 279. t. 32. f. 2.), and he proposes that 
it should bear the name of James. Henry Slater, Esq. of 
Newick Park, near Uckfield, to whom we are indebted for 
our knowledge of it, and whose great success in cultivating
