This new small species is mostly related to U. affinis Wight (incl. 

 U. hrachypoda Wight), but differs : lower lip of corolla 3-lobed (not 

 scarcely emarginate), spur straight (not slightly curved), cells of the seed- 

 testa very few in number, and especially the peculiar scape of the bladder- 

 appendices, of which the figures (Fig. 1) should give some idea.
