Flowered at Kew in October, 1914. The plant has muck of the 

 general appearance of C. lentiginosa, Lindl., except that the bulhs 

 are much more ovoid, and the flowers larger and at present only 

 two in number ; but the crest of the lip is verj different, the keels 

 being broken up into a number of wart-like papillae, and the 

 middle one short and broad at the base. The sepals and petals are 

 pale green, and the lip light yellow, with a broad dark brown 

 margin to the side lobes, some brown streaks and dots on the disc, 

 and some bright yellow at the apex of the lateral keels and the base 

 of the central one.
