with thick, broad, blunt, emarginate leaves, the sheaths of 
which are reticulately ribbed when dry. The flowers are 
solitary, on slender pedicels, orange yellow with red spots, the 
lip white and pubescent. They are about an inch across. 
The Bornean form usually has shorter leaves, and looks a 
very different plant, but I see no difference in the flowers.

This has the base of the lip formed into a boat, hispid within, 
and bearing a hispid callus in the middle. Two small earlike 
processes represent the lateral lobes. The mid-lobe has a very 
large pubescent lump in the centre, and two narrow, linear 
lobes, one on each side, shorter than the terminal one.
