and a cordate-triangular mid-lobe. The perianth segments 
are brown-green, the lip white with red stripes. The draw- 
ing in the Reichenbachian herbarium shows the reflexed 
column which is diagnostic of this variety. 
ipidendrum Mooreanum Rolfe of which the type 
was a plant from Costa Rica sent to Kew by Mr. F.W. 
Moore. It is described as having linear leaves one foot 
long and 9-11 lines broad, a sparsely branched panicle 
and an asperate-verrucose ovary. The sepals are lanceo- 
late-linear, subacute; the petals oblanceolate, subobtuse. 
The lip is about 5 lines long, the lateral lobes subspatu- 
late, the mid-lobe broadly elliptic [actually almost sub- 
orbicular]. The perianth segments are pale green, the lip 
deep purple [7], the ‘front lobe’* broadly margined with 
very light green. 
Epidendrum profusum Rolfe of which the type is 
supposed to be from Mexico. It is described as having 
ovoid pseudobulbs with two or three leaves which are lig- 
ulate, 18-35 em. long and 1.5—-2.5 em. broad. The inflo- 
rescence is a subcompact many-flowered panicle. The 
sepals and petals are pale yellow-green; the sepals oblong- 
lanceolate, subobtuse, 2.8 cm. long; the petals spatulate- 
lanceolate, subobtuse, 2.3 em. long. The lip is 1.8 cm. 
long, white, the mid-lobe purple lined; the lateral lobes 
oblong; the mid-lobe elliptic or suborbicular, the veins 
verruculose.
