Eulophia. | CXLVIII. ORCHIDEX. (J. D. Hooker.) 3 
Upper BURMA; at Maypongo, Herb. Hort. Calextt. 
Tuber globose. Stem 4—6 in. Leaves 2, linear-lanceolate, acuminate. Scape with 
the raceme 18 in.; sheaths 2, acuminate; raceme 6-8-fld.; bracts 2—1 in. mem- 
branous, linear-lanceolate, subspathaceous; flowers 1 in. diam. ; lateral sepals inserted 
at the base of the column; lip shorter than the sepals ; hypochile obovate, as long as 
the rather narrower epichile; spur short, cylindric; column rather long. 
6. E. bracteosa, Lindl. in Wall. Cat. 7366; Gen. & Sp. Orchid. 180; 
in Journ, Linn. Soc. ii. 23; bracts very long, sepals oblong, tip rounded, 
petals broadly obovate very many-nerved, bp narrowly obovate-oblong, 
obscurely 3-lobed, disk with 5-crenulate veins. E. grandiflora, Lindl. 
Gen. & Sp. Orchid. 181. 
KHasrA HILLS; on the north slopes, alt. 3-4000 ft, J. D. H. $ T. T. 
CHITTAGONG, Wallich. TENASSERIM, alt. 3500 ft., Parish. 
Stem 4-6 in. sheathed. Leaves 1-3, 10-18 in., linear-lanceolate, petioled, 
3-nerved. Scape stout, shorter than the leaves, clothed with long sheaths; raceme 
short, few-fld.; flowers fleshy; bracts 1-1} in.; sepals 2 in., yellow; lip white or 
lilac, streaked; spur short, obtuse. Capsule 1 in.—Lindley’s habitat of Ceylon for 
grandiflora is no doubt an error. 
7. E. elata, Hook. f.; bracts equalling the ovaries, sepals falcate 
lanceolate acuminate 5-nerved, petals elliptic-lanceolate obtuse strongly 
d-nerved, lip narrowly ovate-oblong obtuse entire, disk with 3 slender 
moniliform nerves. 
PERAK, Scortechini, 2023. 
Leaves 12-14 in., petioled, elongate, linear-lanceolate. Scape 3} ft., very stout 
below, sheaths appressed ; raceme elongate, lax-fld. ; bracts 1-1 in.; sepals as long, 
fleshy ; lip equalling the sepals; spur a small sac; column short, stout, hooded ; 
young fruit 2 in., deflexed. 
8. E. explanata, Lindl. Gen. & Sp. Orchid. 180; bracts shorter 
than the ovary, sepals oblong-ovate subacute and broader elliptic petals 
5-nerved, lip subpanduriform, base saccate with spreading nerves, disk with 
two thick crenate lamellz, midrib greatly thickened and caruncled towards 
the truncate emarginate tip. Dipodium scariosum, Herb. Ham. 
N PAL; at Maghada, in the Morung, Hamilton. Ncrtu-West INDIA 
(Ie. Falconer). 
Leaves very young at the flowering time, surrounded at the base, along with 1 or 
2 scapes, with short broad 3-1 in. long sheaths. Scape 4-8 in., rather stout, 10-12-fld. ; 
bracts 4—4 in.; pedicels with ovary 2 in.; perianth yellow and purplish, spreading, 
2—3 in. diam.; lip sessile, base adnate to the lateral sepals; sac or spur broadly 
conical, obtuse; column very short.—An anomalous species. Lindley’s specimens 
being counterparts of Hamilton’s, his Ceylon habitat is doubtless an error. 
§§ Lip broader than long, side lobes short or 0. 
9. E. obtusa, Hook. f.; bracts equalling the ovaries, sepals oblong- 
lanceolate acute 7-nerved and broadly elliptic obovate obtuse many-nerved 
petals tessellate, lip clawed 3-lobed, side lobes rounded, midlobe much longer 
oblong, disk with 2 lobed calli at the mouth of the spur and 3-5 thickened 
nerves ending in calli within the apex, claw witha reniform callus on each 
side. Cyrtopera obtusa, Lindl. Gen. & Sp. Orchid. 190.
