138 CXXXIII. ORCHIDEE (ROLFE). [Angræcum. 
I have not seen Senaar specimens, and follow Reichenbach in considering the 
southern specimens identical. A. semipedale, Rendle, I cannot distinguish, but 
A. Grantii, Bateman, doubtfully referred here by Reichenbach, seems distinct. 
8. A. Grantii, Batem. ex Baker in Trans. Linn. Soc. xxix. 153. 
Roots stout, densely fascicled. Stems very short, about 3-leaved. 
Leaves obovate-oblong, unequally and obtusely bilobed, attenuate 
below, 4—5 in. long, 1-1} in. broad. Racemes 6 in. long, +—6-flowered. 
Bracts very broad and short. Perianth (withered). Spur of the lip very 
slender and flexuous, 6-7} in. long. Capsule obovate-oblong, 14-1} in. 
long.— Angrecum sp. Speke, Journ., App. 648. 
Nile Land. British East Africa: Madi, on a lichen-covered bough of Kigelia 
pinnata, Grant, 716! 
A fruiting specimen only known; Reichenbach thinks it may be his 4. kotschyanum, 
but the spur is more slender, very flexuous, not thickened at the apex, and the racemes 
are only half as long. 
9. A. pachyurum, Rolfe. Stems short. Leaves subspathulate- 
oblong, unequally and very shortly and obtusely bilobed, 3-34 in. long, 
8-10 lin. broad. Racemes pendulous, 6-9 in. long, many-flowered. 
Bracts broadly ovate, obtuse, or apiculate, 14—2 lin. long. Pedicels 4 in. 
long. Sepals elliptic-oblong, apiculate, 4 lin. long. Petals elliptic, 
apiculate, 4 lin. long. Lip elliptic, apiculate, a little narrowed below, 
4 lin. long ; spur curved, 24-3 in. long, stouter than in the allied species. 
Column stout, 2 lin. long. 
Mozamb. Dist. British Central Africa: cultivated specimens ! 
Described from cultivated specimens introduced by Mr. J. Buchanan, which 
flowered in the collection of Mr. J. O’Brien in 1891, It is easily distinguished from 
its allies by the thickened spur. A specimen collected near Tetté, River Shire, Kirk ! 
may be a weak form of this species. 
10. A. avicularium, Reichb. f. in Gard. Chron. 1887,i. 40. Leaves 
elliptic-oblong, cuneate below, contracted and obtusely bilobed at the 
apex, 4 in. long, 2} in. broad. Peduncle 9-10 in. long, somewhat one- 
sided, rather lax, 15-flowered. Bracts scarious, triangular, one quarter 
as long as the pedicels. Pedicels one-fifth as long as the spur. Sepals 
and petals lanceolate, aristate. Lip oblong, dilated from a narrower 
base, cuspitate ; spur filiform, 4-5 in. long. Column with a very obtuse 
SEN obscurely apiculate in the middle; rostellum linear, beak- 
e. 
Tropical Africa. Without locality, cultivated specimen ! 
Flowered in the collection of Sir Trevor Lawrence, Bart., in 1887; said to be 
allied to the following species, and probably of Tropical African origin. 1 have only 
seen a single raceme. 
11. A. bilobum, Lindl. in Bot. Reg. 1840, Misc. 69; 1841, t. 35- 
Stems short, 5-8-leaved. Leaves obovate-oblong, 3-5 in. long, 1-1} in. 
broad; apex shortly and unequally bilobed; base cuneate-attenuate 
below. Racemes pendulous, 6-12 in. long, many-flowered. Bracts 
broadly ovate-oblong, obtuse, 14-2 lin. long. Pedicels 3-1 in. long. 
Sepals and petals oblong-lanceolate, shortly acuminate and reflexed,
