This grows on the ground in dense jungle. Plants flowered 
in the Botanic Gardens from Malacca had apple-green sepals 
and petals, the latter with a medium pink line and a white lip 
spotted and marked with deep crimson.

Ophir! Bukit Sadanen, R. Derry ! 
This exactly resembles Lindley’s figure above quoted, which 
was based on a plant said to have been imported from Ceylon, 
and I believe G. purpurewm, R. Br., l.c., is intended for the same 
species. A white-flowered plant with pink markings and a 
yellowish central blotch, collected in Pulau Hujong Duri, north 
of Lankawi, by Curtis, seems to me to be a white variety 
merely, though, according to a sketch, the apex of the lip is 
retuse. 
I have also another form (apparently) which has yellowish 
flowers, with an acute lip veined with brown, from Saigon; 
and a somewhat similar form was found in Province Wellesley 
by Curtis.

The numerous descriptions of this, the finest of East Indian 
orchids, leave little to be added. It is probably the largest
