Linptey, that shortly after M. pardina had flowered with 
him, he received from Mr. Barker specimens of a remark- 
able variety of it, the flowers of which were entirely self- 
coloured. This we take to be that particular state of the 
species, which was received along with the spotted variety 
at the Woburn gardens from Mexico by favor of Mr. Par- 
Kinson. It produces its fine racemes of blossoms, which 
exhale a powerful and most agreeable odour, in September, 
1840. 
Descr. Pseudo-bulbs oblong, in our specimen sheathed 
with the broad membranaceous scales of the lanceolate, 
membranaceous and strongly striated leaves. From the 
base of the bulb arises the scape, a foot and more long, in- 
cluding the many-flowered racemes. Bracteas ovate, acu- 
minate. Sepals and petals ovate, acuminate, aud, as well 
as the lip, concave, moderately spreading at the base, the 
apices directed upwards, so that they are almost connivent. 
Lip cuneate, with three acuminated lobes, two lateral ones 
smaller and reflexed. The colour of the whole a deep 
lemon-yellow. Column and anther as in CATASETUM.
