5. Calanthe halconensis ^f wes in Phil. Journ. Sci. 2 : 324. Ca- 

 lanthe halconensis Ames is a near ally of C. phqjoides Reichb. f. 

 (cf. Hook. f. Ic. PI. t. 1864), a species which has been ascribed 

 to the Philippines. C. pkajoides is referred to the synonymy of 

 C. angustifolia Lindl. by J. J. Smith. 



Calanthe maquilingensis Ames is very similar to C. halconensis. 

 but has deeper labellum lobes. It resembles C. angustifolia.
