regards its floral structure to J. argyroneura, Rolfe, a 
species not at present to be met with in living collections, 
which Miquel originally referred to Haemaria. In this 
case, however, 1. Sanderiana is readily distinguished not 
only by having a coloured venation with wider lines, but 
in having these yellow in place of white. The plant from 
which our figure has been prepared was acquired for Kew 
from Messrs. Sander in -1914. It flowered at Kew in 
September, 1916, and, as is usual, died after flowering.
