THE ORCHIDOLOGY OE INDIA. 55 



There is also, under the number 68 in Hooker and Thomson's 

 Herbarium, a plant from Gurwhal and Khasija, which is quite 

 different from this, and which may be my E. acervata, notwith- 

 standing some discrepancies. 



294. E. Dillwynii, Bot. Mag. t. 4163, is certainly E. bractescens in a state 

 of great vigour. 



295. E. ringens, Rchb.f. in Bonplandia, is E. ovata, Bot. Reg. 1844, sub 

 t. 29. 



§ VIII. Eriuea. 



Under this name may be collected the species having small 

 flowers more or less woolly, very large lateral sepals, and a lip flat 

 at the base, furfuraceous in the axis, with a wooUy tubercle at 

 the apex and base, or at least at the apex. ^. javensis, abhreviata, 

 and Sonkaris, Echb. f., together with the following, are all at pre- 

 sent known with certainty. 



296. E. paniculata, Lindl. in Wall. PI. as Rar, i. 32. t. 36. 



Sikkim, 10,000 feet, J. D. H. {67) ; rocks near Sarapanee, Griffith 

 (1152). 



297. E. obliqua. (Mycaranthes obliqua, Lindl. in Bot. Reg. 1840, misc. 

 184.) 



Singapore, Cuming, in hort. 



This differs from JE. bifalcis in the form of the lip and in the 

 presence of a large tumour at the base of the furfuraceous axis. 



298. E. MONOSTACHYA; fohis longissimis coriaeeis gramiueis canaU- 

 culatis, racemis longis cyhndraeeis tomentosis, labeUi quadrilobi 

 laciniis triangularibus acutis apicalibus minoribus, lamellis 2 triangu- 

 laribus aristatis infra isthmum, tubercuHs axeos 3 quorum tertium 

 ultra apieem protrusum. 



Mount Gembolo, in the east of Java, Zollinger (53). 



I have this from Prof. Echb. as Eria paniculata, from which it 

 differs in its long cylindrical racemes, and the presence of two 

 sharp-pointed triangular plates below the lateral incisions of the 

 lip, as well as in the other characters above described. 



299. E. Reinwardtii ; foliis distichis Unearibus rigidis apice obhquis 

 acutis, racemo solitario tenui sessiU multifloro, labelU quadrilobi basi 

 et apice tubereulati laciniis lateralibus obtusis planis terminalibus 

 subcrispis minoribus. 



Jaxsi, hb. Reinwardt. {Cymbidium parvijiorum). 



Leaves 5 or 6 inches long, somewhat distichous. Spike 4 

 inches long, terminal, sessile, with small reflexed bracts nearly as 

 long as the ovary.
