ORCHIDACE.E 



triangular rounded auricle, acute or subacute and apparently 

 complicate with a dorsal keel at the apex, three-nerved. Dorsal 

 sepal about 3 mm. long, 1 mm. wide, oblong, rounded and erose 

 at the apex, concave, three-nerved. Petals about 2.5 mm. long, 

 .75 mm. broad above, falcate-oblanceolate, broadly rounded at 

 the apex, one-nerved. Lip prominently spurred, three-lobed ; lat- 

 eral lobes erect, about .8 mm. long and broad at the base, trian- 

 gular-falcate and decurved, incurved at the apex and obtuse when 

 expanded, joined by a pubescent keel or callus: middle lobe 

 -2 mm. long, 1.5 mm. wide near the base, triangular, on each side 

 auriculate-dilated below and long acuminate to a sharp apex; 

 spur about 2.3 mm. long, conic, rounded at the apex, provided 

 within at the base with a small thin subquadrate truncate or 

 shallowly retuse pubescent lamella. Column short, stout, about 

 2 mm. long, shallowly dentate above. 



This species is a very close ally of Tiichoglottis lanceolaria BL, 

 but the former has apparently a somewhat smaller and less fleshy 

 flower "^^ith very different lateral lobes of lip and a differently 

 proportioned middle lobe.
