MALABAR ; on branches of trees, Jerdon. 
Stem 1-3 in., tufted. Leaves 1-1} by 2 in. Racemes much longer than the 
leaves; bracts ovate, acuminate; flowers Je in. long; column short; anther broad ; 
pollinia with a short strap and large narrow gland.—Described chiefly from 
Wight. 
19. S. lanatum, Hook. f. ; stem short, leaves linear-oblong broadly 
2-lobed, peduncle very stout longer than the leaves, spikes dense-fid. 
tomentose or woolly, sepals ovate tips keeled, side lobes of lip triangular, 
midlobe ovate bicuspidate, spur short saccate traversed by a pubescent 
ridge from the base of the column to that of the midlobe. Cleisostoma 
lanatum, Lindl. in Journ. Hort. Soc. iv. 264; Walp. Ann. 889. 
TENASSERIM ; at Moulmein, Parish, Scott. 
Stem very stout. Leaves 3-4 by 1-1} in., thickly coriaceous, keeled. Scape 
with long appressed sheaths, simple or branched ; spikes 4—7 in. ; bracts E in., large, 
ovate, acuminate, spreading or reflexed ; flowers 3 in. long; sepals dingy purple an 
green; petals obovate, ciliate, yellow and purple; side lobes of lip notched on the 
inner margin, ciliate; midlobe with a large pubescent gibbous compressed callus 
descending into the spur, mouth of spur contracted to a slit with a pubescent raised

pollinia globose, sulcate, strap long slender dilated and forked above, each arm 
spathulate and with the globose pollinia immersed in their concave tips, gland

find the great gland in the spur under the column.

A very common plant, and, if two species are not included, very variable. 
Stem very short, Leaves in Wallich's 7342 A from Nepal 6-12 by 4—4 in., strongly
