i ARETHUSEJE. 401 
This plant varies in the form of the lamella, which crest the middle of 
the lip, and in their size, and is perbaps a mere variety of C. multiflora, of 
which it has all the habit ; but its labellum is very differently formed. 
It is probably the plant whose lip is represented at fig. 3, t. 55, of 
Püppig's book as a variety of his C. decipiens, my C. multiflora, and I 
presume it also includes the 9 and y of this celebrated botanist.

C. labello subrhombeo obtuso basi integerrimo ultra medium crenulato juxta

According to Póppig, this plant is very variable in the size and colour of 
the flowers, which are in some varieties white, in others yellow, and also in 
the height of the scape and the form of the lip ; of such supposed varieties 
he enumerates 5. But I have stated under the last species that his 
B and y appear to belong to C. lamellata, and I believe his e is C. crispa, a 
most distinct plant. t 
According to a note by Mr. Mathews in my herbarium, this is the Pica 
de Loro of the Chilenos. 
9. Cnronza cristata. Lindl. in Hook. Journ. Bot. 1. 4. 
C. labelli subrhomboidei lateribus inferioribus rotundatis verrucosis inte- 
gerrimis superioribus laceris : venis centralibus ad apicem usque creber- 
rim? glandulosis, sepalis lateralibus apice concavis incrassatis, petalis 
acutis nudis. 
Hab. in Chile, prope Valparaiso, Cuming. (hab. s. sp.) 
This also would probably be-regarded by Póppig as a variety of C. mul- 
liflora : its lip is however so different, that I cannot think it right to join 
them. It is possibly his C. decipiens ò, “ floribus candidis, labello magis 
anguloso, cristis elevatis ancipitibus apice setigeris," which he himself sus- 
pects to be a distinct species. 
10. Curonza crispa. 
C. labello subrotundo-oblongo apice crispo nudo basi subintegro et pone 
margines papilloso, venis centralibus 7-9 setosis, sepalis lateralibus apice 
vix incrassatis, petalis acutis parüm brevioribus basi granulosis.

The only specimens I have seen of this fine species were collected near 
Concepcion by Lord Colchester, and as exactly answer to Feuillée's figure 
as it is to be supposed that any plant will; for this reason I presume it to 
be Póppig's fifth variety of his C. decipiens ; from which, however, I con- 
ceive it to be quite distinct.
