Anotber long-pedicelled form but less hairy and with tbe flowers resembling those of 

 typical M. glomeratm was obtained at Camps VII and VIII. R. glomeratus is a widely 

 dispersed species in tbe Malay Archipelago and Peninsula, generally found at some 

 altitude, and varies considerably ; but amongst all the specimens I have seen, I have 

 met with none witli the peculiar long stout pedicels, nor with the distinctly cuspidate 

 sepals, characteristic of this variety. The leaves are less hairy than is usual in this 

 species ; in some specimens they show rudimentary lobing.
