long puzzled over this curious little plant, for which I had proposed the E neni before 
Adrorhizon, in allusion to its remarkable roots, but await more m without 3 
establishing it. From Dendrobium it differs in habit, in the long cout 
foot, and in the pollen; and it is more near Celogyne or Panisea.
