half deflexed, rather closely beset with elongated gland- 
ular hairs, shortly glandulose at the tip and on the de- 
pressed or canaliculate central portion of the glandulose 
disc, auriculate on each side at the base, the auricles 
rounded and curved inward. Column about 2 mm. long, 
dilated upward from a slender base, cucullate at the apex 
with the margin of the clinandrium irregularly fringed; 
rostellum membranaceous. Stigmatic orifice on the fron- 
tal surface. 
Vegetatively this species bears a strong resemblance 
to Pleurothallis Lewisae Ames, but differs from it mark- 
edly in the structure of the flower. (cf. Bot. Mus. Leafl. 
vol. 1 no. 8 p. 7.) The structure of the labellum and 
column resembles P. navarrensis Ames and P. abjecta 
Ames.
