There seems to be only a slight difference between 
Schlechter’s HZ. similis and H.oblongifolia and the form- 
er is here placed tentatively under that species. Critical 
work will probably uphold this reduction.

Tropidia ctenophora Reichb.f. is probably conspecific 
with T.effusa Reichb.f. The original description of the 
lip as given by Reichenbach is obviously incorrect as is 
the drawing made by him which is now contained in his 
herbarium. The lip is shown as emarginate, and is so de- 
scribed with a query. The species undoubtedly has the 
apex of the lip strongly reflexed.
