Hab. in Brazilia ; Prof. Graham. 
Flores lilacini, labello pallidiore in disco sanguineo. 
Iadopt this species in deference to the opinion of Drs. Graham and 
Hooker, not having had an opportunity of seeing the plant myself. From 
the beautiful figure of the latter, it appears to differ from C. Loddigesii in 
nothing but having the middle lobe of the lip rounder, and the disk stained 
with purple. No dependence is to be placed upon the proportion between 
the length of the scape and the peduncle; that character being very much 
affected by the degree of vigour of the individual.

draceis cinereis vestitis, spathà cylindraceà membranaceà pedunculo 
breviore.
