5. Front view of anther. Pollen removed. 
6. Grains of pollen. 
Through this, Orchidez revert to the ordinary structure, 
and still more through Apostiez іп one species of which, 
the last remaining orchedeous symptom viz 3-4 nary aggre- 
gation of pollen granuls disappears.

Do. the roundish prominent masses on the lower side of the 
stigma represent the two lateral stigmata? in situation they 
are proped. 
The true relative position of the lateral processes of the 
column has been stupidly omitted by me in this drawing. 
Compare it with Bauer's drawing of Epipactis, does Epi- 
pactis differ (in its species) in the direction of development, 
are its lateral processes always oppossed to the lateral petal, 
or are they occasionally opposed to these, occasionally to the 
lateral sepals, see Bauer, 6-10: the lateral teeth of sketch 
6 obviously being those which in 10 bear the anther.
