C. ochracea ; pseudobulbis oblongis apice tetragonis, foliis angustè lanceo- 
latis obseďré 5-nerviis in petiolum angustatis racemo paucifloro apice 
nutante longioribus, labelli trilobi intus pubescentis lobis lateralibus 
rotundatis intermedio ovato acuminato obtuso sinu denticulato integrove 
lamellis 2 rectiusculis integris cis medium apicem evanescentibus lineà 
brevi elevatà apice dentiferà prope basin interjectá. 
The specimen from which the annexed figure was taken 
was supplied by Thomas Brockelhurst, Esq., of the Fence, 
near Macclesfield, in April last. Its pure white flowers, with 
bright orange yellow blotches on the lip, are very pretty; 
and they are, moreover, extremely sweet-scented. 
We possess the plant from several localities among the 
late Mr. Griffith’s valuable Indian collection. Darjeeling, 
Bootan, and the Mishmee hills all produce it. With the 
Mishmee specimens we have a note from its lamented dis- 
coverer, stating that it is common on Thumathaya and 
Laimplang-thaya. These specimens differ a little among 
each other in regard to the amount of toothing present at the 
sinus of the lip, and as to its exact form ; but they all belong 
evidently to the same species. 
This plant must be cultivated in the damp stove or 
Orchideous House. Like most of such plants, it may either 
be grown in a pot, or fixed upon a block of wood, and sus- 
pended from the rafters of the house. The chief point to be 
attended to is to rest it judiciously, by keeping it cool and 
dry, after the growth is completed for the season. 
It is multiplied in the usual manner, by dividing the 
pseudo-bulbs.
