ORCHIDACE^ 



farinose callus and in the center of the claw a much smaller far- 

 inose callus. Column globose, apparently connate with the claw 

 of the labellum. 



In general appearance this plant closely suggests Eria oblit- 

 terata Reichb. f., but differs very strikingly in floral characters. 

 E. padangenm Schltr. is outwardly somewhat similar to this 

 species, but differs considerably in details of the flower. 



The slender delicate aspect of the whole plant and the mi- 

 nute flowers with their thickly farinose lip are characteristic 

 marks.
