oblong tubular-concave lamina which is minutely biden- 
tate at the apex, about 7.5 mm. long and 8 mm. wide 
when expanded. Petals obliquely elliptic-lanceolate or 
oblong-oblanceolate, falcate-incurved, acute, about 5.9 
mm. long and 1.2 mm. wide. Lip spreading from the 
column at a right angle, very shortly clawed, about 8.5 
mm. long; claw abbreviated, very fleshy, about 0.75 mm. 
long; lamina triangular-ovate, acute or short-acuminate, 
subcordate at base, about 2.9 mm. long, up to 2 mm. 
wide at the base; disc with a fleshy minutely pubescent 
callus (continued from the claw) through the lower por- 
tion. Column short, stout, commonly dilated at base, 
about 2.9 mm. long, minutely pubescent. 
This species differs from the Brazilian Notyla pubes- 
cens Lindl. in its much smaller leaves, fleshy (not mem- 
branaceous) flowers and shorter less attenuate lip.
