bracts reflexed lanceolate, or oblong", acute long^er than the ovary ; 

 sepals and petals spreading- deflexed, oblong very obtuse narrowed 

 towards the base, sepals I'o cm. long-, petals a little shorter ; lip 

 galeate, the mouth obovate, apex free erect or reflexed obtuse, 

 spurs pendulous filiform usually shorter than the ovarj^ ; stipe of

Described from several dried specimens and one living specimen 

 from Tulbagh Kloof, my number 5443 from which the drawing was 

 made. The true home of this pretty species is in the Tulbagh or 

 neighbouring districts where it is fairly common, and it is a curious 

 circumstance that it is very rare on the Cape Peninsula where I 

 have never seen it and only know of its being once found growing 

 there
