sis Pfitz., to which the species have been previously re- 
ferred, differs in the absence of the cushion-like swollen 
backwall to the lip and in the structure of the pollinia 
which are transversely oblong-ovoid and are adnate at a 
right angle in subequal pairs to the broadly oblong to 
subquadrate stipe. Also the flowers always appear to be 
much larger.
