112 CXLVIII. oROHIDEX. (J. D. Hooker.) [Goodyera. 
v. 90. G. marginata, Lindl. in Wall. Cat. 7394; Gen. & Sp. Orchid. 493; 
in Journ. Linn. Soc. Le, Satyrium repens, Linn. Sp. Pl. 1339. 
TEMEPRATE HIMALAYA, alt. 8-11,000 ft., from Simla eastwards to Sikkim.— 
Distris. Europe, N. Asia, N. America. . 
Stem 4-8 in. Leaves dark grey or mottled with paler, j-lin. Spike 1-4 in, 
often twisted, sometimes almost glabrous; flowers whitish; lateral sepals } WM» 
ovate, acuminate, 1-nerved,, dorsal narrow; petals linear, falcate ; rostellar arms 
short ; pollinia small, pyriform, sessile on the small gland. 
5. G. fusca, Hook. f. Ic. Pl. ined.; very robust ; leaves radical broadly 
ovate, spike secund pubescent, bracts exceeding the flowers, lip deeply sat- 
cate with a decurved beak strongly ridged within, column very short, 
anther very small stipitate didymous. Mtheria fusca, Lindl. in Jourm 
Linn. Soc. i. 184. Cystorchis fusca, Benth. in Gen. Plant. iii. 599. 
SUBALPINE HIMALAYA; Harung, Munro; Garwhal, alt. 13,000 ft., Duthie; 
Sikkim, in the inner ranges, alt. 12-14,000 ft., J. D. H. 
Roots densely tufted. Stem 6-12 in., often as thick as a swan’s quill. Leaves 
revolute, 1—14 in., subacute, coriaceous ; petiole very short and broad. Spike vety 
many- and dense-fld.; sepals 4 in., obtuse, dorsal narrow, l-nerved, lateral ovate- 
oblong, sub-3-nerved ; petals gibbously falcate; sac of lip protruding beyond the 
base of the sepals, 5-7-ridged within ; column broad, rostellar arms subulate ; anther 
apiculate.—Closely allied to G. repens, though much larger. Besides differing ™ 
habit and locality it wants the calli in the lip of Cystorchis, under which gen" 
see observation. 
6. G. recurva, Lindl. in Journ. Linn. Soc. i. 283; leaves linear 
lanceolate acute, spike secund sharply deflexed glandular-pubescent, bracts 
filiform exceeding the small flowers, lip deeply saccate, beak nearly stralg 
5-ridged within, column with long slender rostellar arms, anther act- 
minate. 
D or HILLS, Lobb; at Moflong, alt. 6000 ft.. on mossy trunks, J. D. H. 
Stem 4-6 in., sheathed by the leaves, suddenly decurved at the top, so that the 
spike is pendulous. Leaves 2-3 by 4-4 in., thick, acute, nerveless, not reticulate, 
narrowed into the broad petiole. Spike 3 in. long; flowers completely secun"? 
sepals } in. long, l-nerved, acuminate, dorsal ovate-lanceolate, lateral broader, 
falcate ; petals obliquely linear-lanceolate ; lip rather longer than the column, tip 
obtuse. Capsule pedicelled, ellipsoid, 1 in. long. 
7. G. Prainii, Hook. f. Ic. Pl. ined.; leaves ovate acute, spike secund 
recurved glandular-pubescent, bracts lanceolate equalling the flowers, ip 
cymbiform obtuse lamellate within, column with long rostellar arms, ant er 
acuminate. 
Naca HILLS in Upper Assam; on Pulinabadya, alt. 7200 ft., Prain. l 
Very near G. recurva, but the leaves are 1-11 in., ovate and strongly reticulatel 
nerved, the spike recurved, but not deflexed, the sepals are broader, the lateral no 
falcate, and: the lip is less saccate. 
8. G. gracilis, Hook. f. Ic. Pl. ined.; leaves few petioled elliput 
ovate, stem very slender nearly naked, spike short puberulous, bra¢ 
shorter than the flowers, lip straight oblong concave beaked below the 
emarginate tip, with two large calli at the base within, and a very thic 
channelled lamella on the disk, column short, rostellar arms slender. 
PERAK, Scortechini. 
Whole plant 8-10 in. high ; stem slender, with 2-3 distant lanceolate sheaths
