Genus hine Renanthere, cujus sectio a Lindleyo et Reichenbachio habitur, hine Vande valde affine, 
a priore perianthio erassiore, labello basi non saccato et quodammodo habitu differt, a Vanda im- 
primis labello eum columna articulato. In speciebus typieis racemus ramosus, labelli lobi laterales 
lati; his jam a Reichenbachio f. additur anda Lowei, Lindl ; Bot. Mag. t. 0479 (4. Lowei nobis),

petalisque angustis undulatis maculatis, in uno tamen racemo sepala petalaque latiora sunt planiora
