Three species of this remarkable genus are figured by Dr. 
Lindley, 4. Clowesii, Bot. Reg. 1844, t. 63. (Tab. Nostr. 4313), 
A. Ruckeri, Lindl. Bot. Reg. 1846, t. 41, and A. uniflora, Ruiz 
et Pav., Lindl. Bot. Reg. 1844, t. 60; to the latter our species 
must be referred, differing only in the colour of the flower, here 
tinged with blush, and spotted with the same tint. There is 
further an Anguloa squalida, Popp. Nov. Gen. et Sp. pl. 1. p. 43, 
p. 74, described as having the flowers of “a dirty flesh-colour ; 
but the figure is totally at variance with our plant, as it is with 
any other known Anguloa, and more like some Catasetum. Our 
plant is of a lot purchased at a sale of Mr. Warcewitz’s last 
Columbian (Quindios) collections, 1852, in London, by Messrs. 
Jackson, of the Kingston Nursery, in whose orchideous stove it 
flowered in June, 1854.
