lamellis duabus abbreviatis intermedia producta lobo medio truncato 

 rugoso obtuse apiculato. 



A Sincapore Orchidaceous plant, which has flowered in 

 the collection of Messrs. Loddiges, (no. 214). It has erect 

 racemes of delicate straw-coloured flowers, and is readily dis- 

 tinguished by its large bracts. It is nearly allied to E.fia- 

 vescens. The same plant has been found in Burma by Mr. 

 Griffith, from whence I have specimens, no. 1055. It is 

 rather pretty, but not strikingly handsome. 



47. EURYBIA chrysotrycha ; fruticosa; foliis alternis breviter petiolatis 

 ovato-oblongis subdentato-repandis obtusiusculis, supra viridibus scabris, 

 subtus mollissimis, ramulisque junioribus pilis aureis sericeo-tomentosis, 

 peduncubs axillaribus foliis duplo longioribus, monocephalis. Ten. Index 

 Seminum, 1840. 



A new shrub, evidently from New Holland, although Pro- 

 fessor Tenore does not know the exact locality. He gives no 

 further information concerning it. 



48» HETEROPTERIS undulata ; scandens, glaberrima ; foliis oppositis an- 

 gusto-lanceolatis utrinque attenuatis integerrimis undulatis, petiolis bre- 

 vibus plerumque eglandulosis; corymbis paucifloris termiuabbus ; caly- 

 cibus glandulosis; petabs (luteis) undulatis, stylis simplicibus; carpellis 

 villosis. Tenore Index Seminum, 1840. 



This plant has been raised in the Royal Garden of Naples, 

 from seeds received from M. Bonpland, from Buenos Ayres (?) 

 so late as 1838. It is stated to flower in July, and to differ 

 from all the other species of the genus in having linear- 

 lanceolate undulated leaves. No doubt a greenhouse twiner. 

 It should be compared with Banisteria tenuis. 



49. CYRTOPODIUM Andersoni. Botanical Register, ante t. 8. 



Upon the subject of this plant I have received the follow- 

 ing note from Mr. Appleby, gardener to Thomas Brockle- 

 hurst, Esq. M.P., of the Fence, near Macclesfield. 



" In the Botanical Register for this month is an observa- 

 tion that the genus Cyrtopodium does not flower freely in the 

 Orchidaceous houses near London. As I have been success- 

 ful in blooming several of that genus last season, and they 

 are now showing flowers again, I send you the particulars of 

 the method by which I have succeeded. As soon as I per-
