Usually a larger plant than the small states of S. calceolare, with longer stems 
(4-8 in.) and larger leaves, 4-6 by 2-11 in. broad, never 2-fld., but very variable. 
Perianth whole-cold. and yellowish red, or more yellow or greenish and mottled with 
brown; lip white, centre yellow often speckled with red. Capsule in Sikkim sp. 
3 in. long.—Paxton’s S. denticulatum has greeuish yellow flowers speckled with 
brown, and the lip is described as erose. Lindley refers it to S. acutifolium. The lip 
of the Bot. Mag. plant, apparently derived from the same source, is not erose, but with 
à broad thick white fringe of long papillz.

P erhaps a small form of S. acutifolium, but the stem is more slender, the leaves 
“rrower, and the flowers and capsules (3 in.) much smaller.
