1900 SUPPLEMENT—RECENT INTRODUCTIONS, &c. 51 
Angrecum—continued. 
A. rostellare (beaked). /. resembling those of A. fuscatum 
in shape, but having a distinct, long-linear, ascending, rostellar 
process, and spathulate, apiculate petals; peduncles numerous, 
many-flowered. J. cuneate-oblong, bilobed at apex, unusually 
soft. 1885. : 
A. Sanderianum (Sander’s).* jl. snow-white, l4in. across; 
sepals and petals spreading; lip triangular; spur Sin. to 4in. 
long; spikes lft. long, gracefully drooping, bearing two rows of 
flowers. Early spring. 2. tongue-shaped, about 6in. long, 
shining green, the margins tinged with red. Madagascar, 1888. 
A. Smithii (Smith’s). 1. brownish, very small ; racemes slender, 
short, lin. long, eight- to ten-flowered. Stems very short, 
leafiess. German East Africa, 1895. 
A. stylosum (having a prominent style). This species is closely 
related to A. bilobwm, but the flowers are about twice as 
ae they are white, with a brownish spur. Madagascar, 
1895. Syn. A. Fourniere (R. H. 1896, p. 256). 
A. tridactylites (three-fingered). 7. buff, distichous, Jin. in 
diameter; sepals and petals ovate, acute; lip three-lobed, with 
two fleshy, marginal teeth at the base; racemes lateral, about 
2in. long. 7. linear, Jin. to Sin. long, unequally bidentate. 
Sierra Leone, 1888. 
A. Veitchii (Veitch’s). 
A, eburnenm. 
ANGUILLARIA (named in honour of Luigi Anguil- 
lara, a professor of botany at Padua, who died in 1570). 
Orp. Iiliaceez. A small genus (two species) of Australian, 
bulbous plants, only differmg from Wuwrmbea in having the 
perianth segments distinct from the base. A. dioica (Syn. 
A. biglandulosa) has been introduced, but is probably not 
now in cultivation. 
A. indica (Indian). A synonym of Iphigenia indica. 
ANGUILLILIDZE. See Eelworms and Nematoid 
Worms. 
ANGUINA. See Trichosanthes anguina. 
ANGULOA. The Peruvian and Colombian Andes are 
the home of these plants. They are best accommodated 
in the intermediate house during the growing season, 
when they require a liberal amount of moisture at the 
roots. After the growth has matured, less moisture will 
be required—sufficient only, in fact, should be given to 
keep the “ bulbs” in 
a plump condition. 
A cool, brighter, and 
& more airy posi- 
tion should also be 
afforded. To ensure 
satisfactory flower- 
ing, a thorough ripen- 
ing is a necessity. 
The plants are de- 
ciduous when pro- 
perly ripened. To the 
species and varieties 
described on p. 79, 
Vol. I., the following 
should be added : 
A. Clowesii ma- 
crantha (large- 
flowered). jl. bright 
yellow, spotted red, 
larger than in the 
type. July. Colombia. 
A fine but scarce 
variety. A flower of 
the typical species is 
shown in Fig. 47. 
A. dubia (doubtful). 
jl. yellow, the sepals 
and petals covered on 
the inside with small, 
purple spots; lip 
white, blotched pur- 
ple inside at base. 
Colombia. Supposed 
to be a hybrid be- 
tween A. uniflora and 
A, Clowesit. 
A synonym of A. Ruckeri 
A hybrid between A. sesquipedale and

sanguinea. 
A. intermedia (intermediate). A synonym of A. media. 
A. Madouxiana (Madoux’). A garden hybrid, supposed to be 
between A. Ruckeri and A. uniflora. 1894. (L. 434.) 
Anguloa—continued. 
A. media (intermediate). _#., sepals and petals orange-yellow 
outside, brownish-purple internally, the lateral sepals being 
marked with a central, orange line; side lobes of the lip 
reddish-brown, the disk ochre, the anterior lobe short. A 
panien hybrid, probably between A. Clowesit and A. Ruckeri. 
YN. A. ini ia. 
A. purpurea (purple). A synonym of A. Ruckeri sanguinea. 
A. Ruckeri alba (white), . pure white. 1888. 
A. R. media (medium). /., sepals and petals yellow, strongly 
dotted with carmine over the whole of the inner surface; lip 
earmine. Colombia. 1887. A pretty variety. (L. 53.) 
A. R. retusa (retuse). jl. yellowish outside, spotted dark purple 
within; lateral lobes of the lip rectangular, the middle lobe 
small, reflexed, hairy. 1883, A remarkable variety. 
A. Turneri (Turner’s). /. pink, the sepals and petals densely 
spotted inside with bright rose-colour. May and June. Colombia. 
A beautiful plant. 
may as aha eburnea (ivory-coloured). jl. ivory-white, 1892. 
A. u. Mantini (Mantin’s). 7. slightly tinted with rose. 1895.

marked with more numerous rosy bars than in the type. 1892. 
(L. 310.) 
A. u. Turneri (Turner’s). jl. bold; sepals pink, lighter on the 
back; petals bright rose-pink on the inside. 1896. A tall- 
growing form. 
A. virginalis (virgin-white).

Colombia. 
ANGURIA. This genus embraces about forty species, 
natives of tropical America. A. Warscewiczit is worth 
growing. It thrives in a rich soil of loam and peat, and 
may be propagated either by seeds or by cuttings.

nail or spike; in allusion to the spineless tubercles). 
Orv. Cactez. A genus embracing about a dozen species 
of greenhouse, succulent perennials, natives of the Andean 
regions, from Northern Mexico to Peru. They are closely 
allied to Mammillaria—indeed, are included under that 
fl. white, spotted dark brown.
