Cunningham, as, quoted by Lindley, Gen. and Sp. Orch. 393, distinguished two 
species, C. fimbriata, with a much incurved obtuse galea, and C. nosa, with a more 
erect mucronate galea. In the dried specimens those with an erect galea are quite as 
obtuse as the others, and in that state it is impossible to distinguish two distinct forms. 
The specimens of Corysanthes were a much mixed in Her unningham, two or 
even three species laid down on the same sheet, and none named by him C. pruinosa.
