This was also found in the Organ Mountains by Mr. Gardner, 

 from whom I have a specimen (No. 652), and as it is pro- 

 bably already in this country, it may as well be named and 

 characterized. The unpublished name of Jonquil is so likely 

 to lead to misconception, that I make no excuse for changing 

 it to 



M, xanthina ; pseudobulbis ovalibus tetragonis 1-2-phyllis, foliis anguste lan- 

 ceolatis, pedunculis ascendentibus unifloris pedicello sterili terminatis, 

 bractea ovata mucronata cucullata, sepalis petalisque oblongis acutis patu- 

 lis subaequalibus, labello oblongo trilobo laciniis lateralibus erectis linearibus 

 obtusissimis integris intermedia bilabiata : labio superiore carnoso abbreviate 

 truncato 5-dentato inferiore oblongo acuto. 



This is very different from both M. aromatica and Rollissonii. 

 M. Descourtilz found it on the high mountains of Ilha 

 Grande, on the side towards the sea, and exposed to the 

 rising sun. He does not say whether it occurs on trees or 

 on the ground.
