126 EPIDENDRE X. 
Sepala lineari-oblonga, obtusa. Petala duplo latiora, et paulo longiora, 
oblonga, utrinque angustata. Labellum magnum, ventricosum, lobis 
lateralibus maximis rotundatis undulatis intermedio rotundato bipartito. 
Talia video in exemplare Chinensi. An species Blumii omnind eadem? 
I have some doubt whether the Chinese species now described is the 
same as Blume's Arundina Chinensis. Of the peculiarities comprehended 
in his very brief diagnosis, one, the nature of the lines upon the disk of 
the labellum, cannot be ascertained in my specimens, and the other, the 
rounded form of the middle lobe of the limb, although in accordance with 
that of the plant before me, nevertheless not being connected with a refe- 
rence to the bipartite state of the same part, can by no means be said to 
be exactly recognized. Iam however unwilling to create a new species 
out of materials so imperfect as mine.

Sepala et petala subzqualia, patentia, libera. Labellum spits cucullatum, 
cum basi columne adnatum, calcaratum, integrum v. trilobum, sæpiùs 
suprà carinatum lamellosum v. cristatum. Columna erecta, cum ovario 
continua, semiteres, marginata, elongata. Anthera 8-locularis. Pollinia 
8, subæqualia. Herbæ terrestres, (Asiaticæ) caulescentes v. acaules, 
foliis latis plicatis. Scapi radicales. Flores speciosi. 
From Bletia this genus is distinguished by the labellum being constantly 
connate with the base of the column and spurred, while in Bletia the la- 
bellum is constantly articulated with the column and never spurred.
