58 CXLVIII. ORCHIDEE, (J. D. Hooker.) [Saccolabium. 
purple or greenish white; spur as long as the pedicel; column short; anther very 
broad, apiculate, strap of globose pollinia short, gland as long very large 2-fid. 
Benthamiin Gen, Plant. iii. 579 errs in referring (Ec. tenera to this; it is my Cletsostoma 
tenerum.

leaves fleshy flat narrowly linear unequally notched, racemes very short 
simple, sepals ovate-oblong obtuse 1-nerved, petals as large rounded ]-nerved, 
spur of lip longer than the sepals cylindric obtuse, lip minute ovate 
acute, side lobes rounded. Thwaites Enum. 304. Sarcanthus Walkerianus, 
Wight Ic. t. 1686 (bad). S. Walkerianum Reichbd. f. in Walp. Ann. vi. 887. 
CEYLON; Central Province, up to 5000 ft., common; Macrae, óc. . 
Stem curved, as thick as a pigeon's-quill. Leaves 2-3 by 3-1 in. Racemel-ljm. 
slender; bracts minute; flowers 1 in long, rosy in Ic. Walker, lilac in Ic. Thwaites; 
column short; anther short broad, pollinia 2, strap short slender, gland large. 
Capsule 3-4 in., pyriform, pedicelled. 
12. S. flavum, Hook. f. Ic. Plant. ined.; stem short very stout, 
leaves close set loriform deeply unequally acutely 2-cleft, raceme lax-fld., 
sepals oblong obtuse, lip small, infundibular spur much longer than the 
sepals with small toothed side lobes and truncate mouth. 
TENASSERIM; at Moulmein, Parish. . 
Stem 6 in., stout. Leaves 4-5 by $ in., dark green with darker nerves, apiculate 
between the lobes; sheaths 4 in., deeply grooved. Raceme from the base of the 
stem, with the slender scape 4 in.; bracts small, recurved; flowers 1 in. diam., pale 
yellow; column short, broad; rostellum large, 2-lobed, apparently tleshy.—4A. remark- 
able species with the pollinia approaching that of sect. Uncifera (and of Sarcanthus 
mirabilis, Reichb.), but having no trace of a midlobe to the lip. Described from a 
beautiful drawing by Parish, who observes that there is no apparent septum in the 
spur. Reichenbach has (on the drawing) named it Saccolab. buccosum (see No. 14), 
alluding to the cheek-like rostellum, but it is not the plant he has described under 
that name (Gard. Chron. 1871,,938). It closely resembles Sarcanthus Parishii, but 
the flowers are yellow. There is no midlobe of the lip and no septum in the spur. 
13. S. fragrans, Par. & Reichb. f. in Journ. Bot. xii. (1874) 197; dwarf, 
stem very short, leaves crowded oblong obtuse very thick, raceme shortly 
peduncled decurved many- and dense-fld., flowers rose-red, lateral sepals 
orbicular-oblong, petals linear-oblong obtuse, lip large saccate, base sud- 
denly contracted into a decurved spur longer than the sepals and with an 
inflated tip, limb rhomboidly subspathulate fleshy acute toothed towards 
the tip. Reichb. f. Otia. Hamburg. 41. 
TENASSERIM ; at Moulmein, Parish. 
Stem iin. Leaves 5-8 by 1 in., bases closely imbricate, deeply channelled. 
Raceme as long as the leaves; flowers about yg in. long, odour of violets ; lip twice 
as long as the sepals, with a callus at the insertion of the tumid straight blade; 
column very short, sides acute; anther with a recurved tip; pollinia globose, sessile 
on the broad end of the short strap, gland lanceolate much longer than the strap.— 
Described chiefly from a drawing by Parish. 
tt Spur of lip shorter than (rarely equalling) the sepals. 
14. S. buccosum, Reichb. f. in Gard. Chron. 1871, 938; stem scan- 
dent, leaves linear-oblong obtusely 2-lobed, raceme simple or branche 
much longer than the leaves, sepals broadly ovate much longer than the 
bottle-shaped spur, lip large, side lobes spreading rounded, midlobe nar- 
rowly oblong. S. parvulum, Lindl. in Journ. Linn. Soc. iii. 36 (in note).
