Eulophia. | CXLVIII. oRCHIDEX. (J. D. Hooker.) 5 
Scape 6-18 in., stout or slender from a deformed tuber; sheaths subappressed, 
acute ; flowers many, subsecund ; sepals slightly attached to the base of the lip, 
variable in breadth, acute or acuminate, yellow or green striped with pink; petals 
narrower ; lip as long as the sepals, side lobes rounded or subacute, midlobe usually 
purple; spur conical, subclavate or subacute; column rather slender. Capsule 3 in., 
ellipsoid.—The lip of E. hemileuca is rather tubercled than spinulose. 
14. E. stenopetala, Lindl. in Journ. Linn. Soc. iii. 96 ; scape-sheaths 
loose, bracts longer than the ovaries, raceme few-fld., sepals 3 in. linear- 
oblong 5-nerved, petals lancéolate acuminate 3-nerved, lip broadly cuneate, 
side lobes rounded much larger than the suborbicular crisped midlobe, disk 
with 3 nerves.tubercled between the side lobes and on the midlobe. 
Buotan HIMALAYA; dry hills at Punaka, Grifith. 
Scape 12-18 in., slender; sheaths obtuse; bracts j-2 in.; lip as long as the 
Sepals, spur clavellate.—Specimens indifferent. Very near E. campestris, but the 
lip is much broader and side lobes more spreading. 
15. E. decipiens, Griff. in Journ. As. Soc. Beng. xlvii. 155, t. 13, 
f. 8-12; flowers secund, bracts’ minute, sepals and petals i in. linear 
hardly falcate acute 5-nerved, lip obovate concave 3-lobed above the middle, 
midlobe much the largest, margin crisped, disk 5-nerved at the base, 10-13- 
nerved in the middle of which 4-5 form fleshy fibres on the midlobe, spur 
short slender saccate. 
NICOBAR Istanps; at Kamorta, Kurz. 
Scape 2-8 ft.; root tuberous; sheaths small, lanceolate. Leaves not seen. 
Raceme 3-4 in. ; pedicel with ovary 1—3 in.; sepals and petals white; spur 5 in.— 
“Closely resembles Pachystoma senile, but pollinia of Eulophia.” I have seen no 
specimens, 
16. i. densiflora, Lindl. in Journ. Linn. Soc. iii. 25 ; scape robust, 
bracts shorter than the ovaries, sepals 1-13 in. narrowly oblanceolate 
acuminate, petals narrower, lip obovate-oblong, side lobes small rounded, 
midlobe orbicular, disk with 3 lamelliform nerves which are crenate or 
interrupted from the middle to near the apex, spur long slender. 
SIKKIM HIMALAYA; at the foot of the hills, J. D. H. Buoran, Griffith. 
Scape 1-8 ft., from a depressed tuber; lower sheaths obtuse, upper acuminate ; 
raceme many-fid.; flowers secund, deflexed, very narrow ; column short.—The long 
narrow flowers are very characteristic of this species. 
17. €. burmanica, Hook. f.; scape robust, sheaths short loose, 
raceme many- and dense-fid., bracts filiform equalling the ovary, sepals 
3 In. oblong obtuse many-nerved, petals narrower 3-nerved, lip cuneately 
obovate, side lobes short rounded, midlobe small ovate, disk with 2 carun-

3-3 In., almost capillary, reflexed ; pedicel with ovary as long ; spur conical; column 
short; pollinia globose.—4A remarkable species, of which there is but one very bad 
Specimen, with twisted scape ; it is possibly near E. macrobulbon. 
Sect. II. Cyrtopera. . Column produced into a foot. 
* Lateral sepals inserted on the spur of the lip (see also C. explanata).
