oblong and very fleshy, the flowers also appear to be whole-coloured 
and green. It is the same as a plant found in Chi-Kiang by Fortune.

has left no account of it, and Dr. Lindley felt unwilling to define it 
from a solitary specimen. : 
5. Bolbophyllum radiatum, Lindl. 1. c. p. 55.—Abundant in a ravine 
- on Victoria Peak. Flowers white. It is identical with the Tavoy 
plant. : 
6. Pholidota Chinensis, Lindl. Journ. Hort. Soc. ii. 30 8.—Abundant 
on rocks, Victoria Peak, and other places. 
7. Eria rosea, Lindl. Bot. Reg. t. 978.—On rocks, Mr. Gough ; 
flowering in January. It is also a Khasiya plant, it being undoubtedly 
the Xiphosium acuminatum of Griffith’s Ic. t. 316. 
8. Conchidium Sinicum, Lindl. sp. n.; foliis membranaceis scapo bifloro 
subzequalibus, labello serrato, bracteis acuminatis, 
This curious little plant forms pale green tufts, which easily escape 
observation. It is distinguished from Conchidium pusillum, Griff., 
which is Phreatia uniflora, Wight, by its thin leaves, and very short 
two-flowered scapes; the lip is moreover very distinctly serrated. 
(Lindl.)

s pairs on each tuber. Scape filiform, about as long as the leaves, soli- 
- tary on each tuber, bracteate at the top, and having two flowers nearly 
as large as the leaves, of a dirty yellowish-green, and slightly fetid.

hering by pairs into two sets. (Champ.)
