able section of the genus, with many flowers in a flat 
umbel, and ciliate dorsal sepal and petals, which is confined 
to the Old World; to which quarter of the globe no doubt 
C. Makoyanum is to be assigned. | 
The distinctive characters of C. Makoyanum are the 
stout rhizome, the pale yellow flowers dotted with red, and 
the revolute margins of the lateral sepals, which being 
coherent, together form a slender tube narrowing from the 
base to the apex, the very short foot of the column, and 
its truncate wings. 
The Royal Gardens are indebted to Fredk. Wigan, Hsq., 
of Clare Lodge, East Sheen, for the specimen here figured, 
which flowered in January, 1892, in the Orchid House.—
