and petals are cream-coloured, as also is the ground- 
colour of the lip, which is marked with chocolate and 
yellow streaks and veins, radiating from a rich orange- 
coloured central ridge or crest. The plant requires tropical 
treatment and plenty of root-room. It blossoms during the 
summer months, and is a native of Borneo, whence it was 
introduced in 1845. Syn. C. Lowzz.

C. barbata.—A free-growing, robust plant, with roundish 
egg-shaped pseudo-bulbs, and leaves in pairs, each being 
about 1ft. long and 2in. broad. Flower-spikes erect, bearing 
a cluster of short-stalked flowers, each of which is about 
2hin. across; sepals and petals white; lip also white, with 
a margin or fringe of pale brown hairs, and three ridges 
in the centre, forming the crest. The plant requires cool- 
house treatment, and blossoms in January. It was intro- 
duced from North India in 1837. 
C. corrugata.—This is a pretty autumn-flowering species, 
with pseudo-bulbs much corrugated or wrinkled (whence 
the specific name), and apple-green in colour. The 
leaves, which are produced in pairs, are about 6in. long, 
and leathery in texture. The racemes are erect, and 
shorter than the leaves ; the sepals and petals are pure white ; 
the lip is white, with a yellow plate in front, and veined 
with orange. It is a native of Khasia and the Neilgherry 
Hills, and thrives under cultivation in an intermediate 
house. It was introduced in 1863.
