Stem stout, ascending. Leaves 11-3 in., ovate or ovate-lanceolate, acuminate; 
petioleslender. Scape 3-6 in.; sheaths and bracts lax, acuminate; raceme 3-10-fid.; 
perianth j in. long; sepals connate to the middle; lip with a small concave 3-nerved

91. ZEUXINE, Lindi. 
Terrestrial herbs; stem creeping below. Leaves membranous. Flowers 
small, spicate. Sepals subequal, dorsal concave, cohering with the petals; 
lateral free. Lip inferior, adnate to the base of the column, cymbiform or 
saccate with a shortly-clawed or sessile entire 2-lobed or 2-winged termina 
lobe; sac with 2 calli or spurs near the base within. Column very short, 
2-keeled or -winged in front; stigmatic lobes 2, marginal, distant; anther 
membranous, cells contiguous ; pollinia pyriform, attached by an oblong 
gland to the erect rostellum with often an intermediate appendage oF a 
linear caudicle.—Species about 20, tropical Asia and Africa. 
, lrefer to Zeuxine those species of. Hefcria that have large terminal lobes to the 
lip. The appendage between the gland of the pollinia and the pollinia itself is à 
very curious organ, and its real nature has not been ascertained, whether rostellar 0T 
pollinar; it occurs only in some species, and in these under very various forms, s0 
that it cannot be relied on as a generic character. It is further so difficult ? 
analysis in dried specimens, that much allowance must be made for my description 
of 1t.
