from #. Hartwegu. I have seen a drawing of the flower 
of the latter species traced from Lindley’s sketch on the 
type sheet, as well as specimens from Venezuela and 
Colombia identified as #. Hartwegu. 
The Peruvian collections which I identify as repre- 
senting 1. Hartwegu differ from the more carefully de- 
scribed 1. fuscum in having somewhat larger vegetative 
proportions throughout. The plant, which shows a creep- 
ing rhizome, averages about 80 cm. high from the rhi- 
zome. The pseudobulbs range from 9.5 to 17 em. (instead 
of 6.5-8 cm.) tall; the leaves vary from 15 to 20 cm. 
(instead of 10-14 cm.) long and 1.2—2.2 em. wide. One 
raceme appears to have about fourteen (instead of six to 
nine) flowers. The floral outline and measurements, how- 
ever, seem to be nearly identical with those of 27, fuscum.
