Trevoria Chloris, F. 0. Lehm. in Gard. Chron. 1897, vol. i. p. 345, fig. 128. 
: Rolfe in Orchid, Rev. vol. viii. (1900) p. 335. 
The very remarkable Orchid here figured was discovered 
by Mr. F. C. Lehmann in moist woods at four thousand 
eight hundred feet to five thousand five hundred feet 
elevation on the western slope of the Andes of Colombia, 
near Popayan, flowering in September and November. 
Its nearest but not very close ally is, according to Mr. 
Rolfe, Coryanthes, from which it differs conspicuously in 
the structure of the lip. The name Trevoria recalls the 
great services rendered to horticulture, and especially to 
a knowledge of Orchids, by Sir Trevor Lawrence, Bart., 
M.P., President of the Royal Horticultural Society of 
London, to whom I am indebted for communicating the 
specimen from which the accompanying figure was made, 
Deser.—Pseudobulbs tufted, three inches long, cylindrie, 
one half to one inch in diameter, smooth, green, one- 
leaved ; sheaths brown, rather rigid, striate. Leaf oblong- 
lanceolate, acuminate, plicate, seven-nerved, narrowed into 
a very short petiole, bright green above, yellowish-green
