Diese Art wurde von Ilerrn Baroii von Descouriilz nachst Bananal in Brasilien ent- 

 deckt (,,Epidendre antbropomorphe"), wo sie sehr gemein scin soll. Derselbe ver- 

 gleicht die Buschel, die sie auf dem Baumen bildet, mit Buchsbaum. Spaler bliihte 

 sie bei den Herrn Loddiges. Nach Herrn Prof. Lindley sammelle sie Herr .Hofrath 

 V. Martius um Ilheos in Waldern. Aus Peru wurde sie in den Garten des Herrn Se- 

 natov Jenisch eingefuhrt, cultivirt von Herrn Kramer (Fernandczia robtisla Kloizsch.)

Resembles F. elegans in foliage. but the flowers are ihrice as large, ond quiie dif- 

 ferently formed, cspecially as regards ihe great extension of a pair of supernumerary 

 lobes situated at the base of the labell , where ihey stand erect like 2 curved horns. 

 Brazil imp. Loddiges. First discov. fay M. Descourlilz, who in his Mss. siates ihat 

 it grows upon trees, forming tufts of verdure , which from distance remind one of 

 Ihe box of Europe. It is cxceedingly common near Bananal. From ihe singular forra 

 of the lip he talled it Epidendre anthropomorphe, Dr. v. Mariius also fou d it in 

 woods near Ilheos.
