(very inaccurate); stems subclavate erect, leaves linear-lanceolate obtuse 
or subacute, racemes erect lateral or subterminal on the leafing stems, 
bracts very small, flowers large cream-cold. with red bars on the very 
base of the lip, sepals oblong obtuse, petals twice as broad. apioulate 
mentum roanded, lip large broadly obovate expanded waved with a sho 
convolute base. Bot. Mag. t. 5130. 
TENASSERIM ; on the Attran River, Lobb. 
Stem 6-16 in., glabrous; internodes 1-1} m. by j in. diam., lower narrower. 
Leaves 5-7'by 1 in.  Raceme 3-4 in., stout, erect; bracts sheathing; — 
3 in. diam., slightly scented. — The figure in Paxton’s Magazine (copied in #4. d 
Serres vii. t. 721, and Jard. Fleur. t. 203) is, as Lindley implies, a made up one, an 
differs in toto from that in the Bot. Mag., having 2-nate lateral flowers oua ME 
stout leafless stem. Lindley, however, cites Lobb for the flowers being racemose, 
they really are.—A very anomalous plant.
