16. E. dichotomum (Lindl. in Bot. Reg. 1888. misc. 146); 
fruticosum, caule fruticoso decumbente filiformi dicho- 
tomo, foliis angusté lanceolatis acutissimis corymbo ter- 
minali longioribus, sepalis lineari-lanceolatis, petalis 
conformibus angustioribus, labello cuniculato cordato 
obtusiusculo basi bicalloso.— —.Demerara.——-A green- 
flowered species of no beauty, remarkable for its hard, 
wiry-looking stem. | 
17. E. aggregatum (Lindl. in Hooker’s Journal, 3. 84.) ; foliis 
^ distichis lanceolatis acuminatissimis racemis oppositi- 
foliis subsessilibus, brevissimis basi squamatis floribus 
corymbosis, labello adnato subrotundo cordato basi bila- 
mellato. Peru.--—A very singular plant, allied to 
E. cauliflorum. The flowers are apparently as large as in 
E. nutans, but they have not been sufficiently examined. 
18. E. macrostachyum ;" caule scabriusculo, foliis oblongis 
mucronulatis, racemo longissimo cernuo angulato, brac- 
teis magnis duris ovato-cordatis reflexis, floribus coria- 
ceis, sepalis oblongis obtusis, petalis filiformibus, labello 
cordato obtuso levi basi valde concavo, clinandrio nudo. 
—— New Grenada.——This is a very singular species, 
with racemes more than a foot long, covered with distant 
leafy bracts full half an inch long. It was found by 
Mr. Linden, whose number 1279 it is, and who describes 
it as having green fleshy flowers, and a stem from two 
to three feet high. 
19. E. zylostachyum ; caule scabro, foliis oblongis obtusis 
coriaceis mucronulatis, spicà strictà flexuosà durà folio 
summo breviore, bracteis herbaceis cucullatis ovatis 
rigidis approximatis, floribus carnosis, sepalis oblongis 
concavis, petalis conformibus planis angustioribus, labello 
cordato ovato obtuso concavo margine recurvo, clinan- 
drio integro.— — New Grenada.—— Another of Mr. 
Linden's discoveries. It is very like the last, but the 
bracts are larger, the spike is very short, the flowers are 
larger, ànd the petals are nearly as broad as the sepals, 
instead of being filiform. 
20. E. costatum (Richard & Galeotti in Ann. Sc. 8 ser. 8. 22); 
* caule compresso; fol. elliptico-oblongis obtusis; flor. 
purpureis; racemo terminali: labello adnato orbiculari 
basi cordato crasso, costis divergentibus notato."——
