(lark brown. Sepals yellowish, marked along the back with 

 reddish spots. The upper one which rises erect is spathu- 

 late, and appears to have generally 2 spots on the inside 

 behind the column. The two lower ones are small and acumi- 

 nate. Lahellum bright yellow, beautifully spotted. The 

 lower division is crescent-shaped, two-lobed, slightly ungui- 

 culate and fringed at the outer edge. The upper divisions 

 are panduriform and of the same colour as the lower, but 

 without the spots. The centre is tuberculated and ciliated 

 on each side. Column deep yellow, with comparatively 

 large spreading wings." 



For the previous note we are indebted to Mr. Booth, 

 under whose successful management this and several other 

 curious new Orchideous plants have been raised at Carclew. 

 The species is nearly allied to O. Cebolleta, from which, 

 however, its characters abundantly distinguish it.
