6. Liparis confusa J. J. Smith Orch. Jav. 275. From the de- 

 scription in Icones Plantarum Formosanarum (4 : 27) L. doli- 

 chopoda Hayata belongs to the same section with L. confusa, 

 L. parviflora, etc. There appear to be two species of Liparis in 

 the Philippines referable to Ridley's §Densiflora3 which I have 

 identified indiscriminately with Liparis vestita Reichb. f. One 

 of these is distinguished chiefly by elongated, slender stems, the 

 other by contracted bulbous stems, which as a rule are elongated 

 slightly, if at all. Both species are characterized by a retuse label- 

 lum. The one with short pseudobulbous stems I refer to L. par- 

 viflora Lindl. The one with elongated stems agrees in many of 

 its details with Liparis confusa J. J. Smith, and is represented 

 in the Philippines by the following : 



Luzon, Bontoc Subprovince, Father M. Vanoverbergh 1536, September 

 to October, 1912. Leyte, C. A. Wenzel 023, October, 1912. I have seen 

 specimens from Mindanao and Basilan. 



Also Java.
