[Appendicula Chalmersiana. 



Stems slender, somewhat compressed; leaves almost membranous, 

 elliptical , minutely pointed close to the blunt summit; raceme termi- 

 nal, manyüowered; bracts longer than the stalklets, membranous, 

 ovate, soon reflexed ; saccate portion of the calyx as long as the lobes, 

 hemi-ellipsoid, lower lobes semi-lanceolar-deltoid, as long as the upper 

 one , inner lobes almost ovate and slightly shorter; labellum ovate- 

 cuneate, free, transversely callous close to the base, otherwise smooth, 

 the terminal lobule roundish-blunt, the lateral lobules almost oblite- 

 rated ; gynostemium at the summit acutely two-pointed. 



On mountains near Port Moresby; Rev. James Chalmers. 



Leaves In-oader than those of Appendicula penicillata, the only one 

 as yet recorded as Papuan, racemes much longer with less crowded 

 flowers, callous appendix of the labellum not cylindrical nor pcnicillar, 

 l)ut consisting of two vertical adnate upward-narrowod plates. 



Froni the Fijian and Samoan A. bracteosa our new species ditt'ers 

 already in the inner calix-lobes (or ])etals) being ratlier narrower not 

 conspicuously broader than the others, also in the occurrence of the 

 normal callus at the base of the labial lobe. 



Sevei-al of the Sundaic species need yet more accurate definition; 

 none however seems identical with ours ; the flowers of which appear 

 to bc white.
