This specimen, which is in the Gray Herbarium, was 
probably determined by Lindley but what remains of 
the specimen is sterile and the record cannot be further 
authenticated. 
Dendrobium platygastrium Reichenbach filius 
Otia Bot. Hamb. (1878) 55; Xen. Orch. 8 (1881) 31. 
Fist: Gillespie 3634; Wilkes U.S. South Pacif. Expl. Exped. 
Dendrobium Goldfinchi ¥.v. Mueller (in Wing South. 
Sci. Record (Jan. 1888) ) is probably a synonym. 
The specimens collected by the United States South 
Pacific Exploring Expedition were annotated by H.G. 
Reichenbach, but the name applied by him was never 
published. This unpublished name is similar to the one 
later adopted and probably Reichenbach altered it before 
he published his description of the species.

The Agati drawings, in the Gray Herbarium, are 
doubtless the type of this most interesting species. Lind- 
ley in his description says, ‘‘A very distinct plant of which 
| only know a drawing by Agati, in the possession of my 
learned friend Prof. Asa Gray’’.
