about as long as the limb and half as long as the ovary ; rostellum 

 linear, attenuated in the middle, wider thickened and somewhat 

 bilobed at the apex ; glands placed behind the apex : stigmatiferous 

 lobe obcuneate, a little longer than the rostellum. 



Described and drawn from living specimens received from Mr. 

 Schlechter from the station first above named in Nov. 1894. 

 Colour of the flowers white with pale green central lines on the 

 segments. A species well distinguished in the spurred group by 

 its very small flowers and peculiar rostellum. From S. retusmn, 

 Lindley, which also has small flowers, it may readily be known 

 by its two lower leaves, laxer and longer spike, and the free apex 

 of the galea.
