COCHLIODA (from kochlion, a little snail; in re-

genus embracing about six species of stove or greenhouse, 
evergreen, epiphytal Orchids, natives of the South American 
Andes. Flowers often red, loosely racemose, pedicellate ; 
sepals equal, spreading, free, or the lateral ones more or 
less connate; petals nearly similar; claw of the lip erect, 
the lamina spreading, the lateral lobes rounded and often 
reflexed, the middle one narrow, entire or emarginate, not 
exceeding the sepals; column erect, often slightly in- 
curved; scapes one or two, springing from under the 
pseudo-bulbs. Leaves oblong or narrow, coriaceous, con- 
tracted into the petioles. Pseudo-bulbs one or two-leaved. 
The three species here described should be grown in 
baskets suspended from the roof of the cool-house. Peat 
and moss form the most suitable compost; and abundance 
of water during the growing season is essential. Propa- 
gation may be effected by division of the pseudo-bulbs.

the column, about lin. across; sepals and petals oblong-elliptic ; 
lip cuneate at base, the small lateral lobes inclosing the disk,

dilated at the end ; racemes drooping, twelve to twenty-flowered.

ovate, two-edged. Peru, 1851. Syns. Mesospinidium rosewm, 
Odontoglossum roseum (B. M. 6084 ; I. H. ser. iii. 66).

in appearance; racemes slender, drooping, slightly branched. 
Summer and autumn. /. two, cuneate-ligulate. Pseudo-bulbs 
oval, compressed, banded with mottled brown. Peru and 
Ecuador. Syn. Mesoxpinidiwim sanguinewm (B. M. 5627). 
C. vulcanica (volcanic). /l. about 2in. across ; sepals and petals 
dark rose ; lip bright rose in front, paler on the disk, where there 
Cochlioda—continued. 
is a four-keeled callus; the side lobes roundish, the middle one 
emarginate ; racemes unilateral, erect, twelve to twenty-flowered ; 
peduncle slender, erect. J. oblong, keeled, 3in. to 5in. long. 
Pseudo-bulbs ovoid, compressed, more or less two-edged. Eastern 
Peru. SYN. Mesospinidium vuleanicum (B. M. 6001).
