Dullophyllum.] cxrivur. oncmipgx. (J. D. Hooker.) 753 
A polymorphous genus, of which § TIT. A resembles Sarcopodium of Dendrobium, 
but differs in its mobile lip, and scape lateral on the pseudobulbs.—See under 
Cirrhopetalum for further remarks. 
Sect. I. EPICRIANTHES. Rhizome creeping, pseulobulbous. Flowers 
solitary, axillary, very shortly pedicelled. Petals represented by 6-7 
elongate narrowly strap-shaped stipitate pendulous mobile threads.—

l in., sessile, elliptic-oblong, acute, coriaceous. Scape J in., l-fld.; bracts lanceo- 
late ; flowers green and red; sepals about } in., subequal, ovate-lanceolate, spreading ; 
threads of petals nearly as long; lip sessile, ovate-lanceolate, acute, warted, base 
2-lobed ; column truncate.— Described from a drawing and notes of Parish. I 
assume he is right in referring his plant to Blume’s E. javanica; he describes the 
threads of the petals as 6, in threes, membranous, Blume as 7, fleshy. There being a 
Bulb. javanicum, I bave adopted the generic name for the specific. 
Sect. II. Oxyserata. Stems many from a rooting base, d. nsely tufted, 
very slender, pendulous, much branched, clothed with scarious silvery 
sheaths ; pseudobulbs few, minute, ovoid. Flowers very small, solitary or 
2-nate on a very short scape which is concealed by the sheaths; bracts 
tymbiform. Sepals very slender, connivent.
