A large number of specimens collected on Mount Kinabalu, 

 together with several collections from the neighborhood of Sara- 

 wak, must be referred to this species. All these specimens show 

 an apiculate lip, a character not mentioned in the description, 

 and the leaves are markedly narrower than those attributed to 

 this plant. Some of the leaves measure 6 cm. in length and 1 cm. 

 in width.
