appear to be identical with those of coriacea, as is the lip, 
and especially as regards its scabrid distal end, which 
suggests the name of Lion’s tongue. 
M. odontoglossa is a native of the mountains of New 
Grenada (alias the United States of Colombia), which 
separate that kingdom from Venezuela. 
The plant figured was presented to the Royal Gardens by 
F. Wigan, Esq., of Clare Lodge, East Sheen, the possessor 
of the best collection of Phalenopsis near London.—
