A slender plant, with the habit of S. filiformis, Lindl., but 
with very different flowers. The lip has a narrow terminal 
lobe with the edges involute; the median keel ends at the 
entrance of the spur. The spur is rather large and saccate, 
but pinched in at the upper part like a conventional money- 
bag. The dorsal callus is large and clubbed, paw-shaped and 
bilobed, glandular on the lower surface.

This is often brought in by orchid dealers from the islands 
near Singapore. The leaves are dark green and very thick, 
but flattened and lorate till an inch from the end, where they 
suddenly become terete and pungent. This, which is well 
shown in Griffith’s drawing and is probably the origin of 
Wallich’s MSS. name oaxyphyllus, is overlooked in the descrip- 
tion in the ‘ Flora of British India.’ 
It is called “Sakat Ular,” i.e., Snake orchid, in Sungei 
Ujong.
