Camp VI b, 3900 ft. 



A single specimen of this small species, which belongs to the small single-flowered 

 section in which the sepals are equal and the lip of fairly large size and flat, with 

 a fleshy base and thinner tip.

Var. MAJOR, Ridl.-fvar. nov.) : floribus multo majoribus. 



Camps IX to XI, 5500 to 8300 ft. 



The only difference that I see between this and B. ischnopus, Schlechter, is that the 

 flowers are nearly twice as big. 



BuLBOPHYLLUM (§ Hirtula) plagiatum, RidL, sp. nov.
