Hab. Arfak Mts., Angi lakes, terrestrial under edge of forest patch by 
2 lake, 7000’. FI. Dee. 5713 and 5890. 
This differs from the plant collected by Mr. G. M. Versteeg in the valley 
between the Hubrecht and Wichmann Mts. in being smaller in all its parts, 
especially in the flower, the somewhat more acuminate dorsal sepal, more 
angular petals, and longer pedicel. I do not think the plants are specifically 
distinct. 
The flowers are said to be pink.

Arfak Mts., Angi lakes, open marsh by @ lake, on gravel, 7000’. FI. 
Dec. 5673. 
Distrib. N.E. New Guinea. 
The material consists of two very small plants. Schlechter’s description 
suits it better than my S. angustilabris There are two conspicuous scales at 
the base of the lip, which, however, so far as I have seen, are not hairy. 
The petals are more acute than in S. angustilabris and the lip is much 
broader and 3-nerved. The dorsal sepal is 1-nerved, whereas it has three 
nerves in S. angustilabris. 
The colour of the flowers is white.
