17. U. Mannii, Oliver in Journ. Linn. Soc. ix. 149. A dwarf, 
delicate, terrestrial, tuberous perennial; tuber globose, about 2 lin. in 
diam., producing a filiform erect scape from the base of which spring a 
solitary leaf and several rhizoids ; rhizoids subverticillate, 2 approxi- 
mately on a level with the leaf and 3 in a whorl close above them, finely 
filiform, simple or sparingly branched. Leaf ligulate or spathulate, 
obtuse, long attenuated into a slender petiole of about the same length 
as the blade, which is about 1 in. long and up to 2 lin. broad. Pitchers 
few, on the rhizoids, inverted, ovoid to subglobose, slightly over 4 lin. 
long ; upper lip divided to the base into 2 linear or horn-shaped tentacles 
more or less recurved over the narrow orifice ; lower lip 0. Scape 3- 
33 in. long; scales few to about 7, subulate, up to 1 lin.long. Flowers 
1-2; bracts and bracteoles subequal, subulate, 1 lin. long; pedicel 
filiform, up to 34 lin. long, at length deflexed. Sepals very unequal ; 
upper narrowly ovate, acute, up to 24 lin. long; lower elliptic, obtuse, 
1} lin. long. Corolla not seen in a perfect condition ; upper lip (accord- 
ing to Oliver) erect, suboblong, obtuse, entire, slightly exceeding the 
upper sepal ; lower lip (according to Oliver) flabelliform-cuneate, entire ; 
spur conic, obtuse, descending, 24 lin. long. Anthers } lin. long; 
filaments linear, 4 lin. long. Pollen depressed-globose, with only 3 
pores. Stigmas subsessile; upper lip very short and broad ; lower lip 
truncate.—Kam. in Engl. Jahrb. xxxiii. 101. U. sp., Hook. f. in Journ.

Upper Guinea. Cameroons: Cameroon Peak, 4000-6000 ft., Mann, 212! 
Evidently very closely allied to U. bryophila. 
18. U. bryophila, Ridley in Ann. Bot. ii. 306. A dwarf, delicate, 
epiphytic, tuberous perennial. Tuber globose, about 2 lin. in diam., 
producing one or two filiform erect scapes, from the base of which 
spring a solitary leaf and several rhizoids. Rhizoids subverticillate, 
long, simple or with few very short branches. Leaf lanceolate, or 
narrowed from below the middle and linear to the upper part, obtuse, 
cuneate at the base; blade up to ? in. long and to 1} lin. broad; 
petiole 2-3 lin. long, very slender. Pitchers numerous, along the 
rhizoids, globose-ovoid, inverted, slightly over } lin. long; upper lip 
deeply divided into 2 short horn-shaped tentacles curving over the 
narrow orifice; lower lip 0. Scape over 1 in. long ; scales 5-8, subu- 
late, } lin. long. Flowers solitary; bracts and bracteoles subequal, 
subulate, }~? lin. long; pedicel filiform, 24-4 lin. long. Sepals very 
unequal ; upper narrowly ovate, acute, over 2 lin. long; lower oblong- 
elliptic, obtuse, 1} lin. long. Corolla over 6 lin. long (from the tip of 
the upper lip to the end of the spur) ; upper lip ovate, bifid over 4 lin.
