 Monte Verde ; epiphytal in dense bunches. Flowers bright purple. 

 Labellum with a darker spot on each side at the same height as the 

 stigma." (633.) 



Epidendrtjm rivulare {Amj)higlottia carinatd) ; foliis lineari-lan- 

 ceolatis, pedunculo brevi paucifloro inter spathas paucas herbaceas 

 carinatas ipsi eequales, sepalis ovali-lanceolatis, petalis linearibus 

 Eequilongis, labelli lobis lateralibus semicircularibus laceris inter- 

 medio lineari-truncato carinato basi tuberculato. 



" La Perla ; margin of a mountain rivulet on rocks. Flowers 

 Yellowish green, speckled with red. Column tipped with the same. 

 Labellum white or light yellow." Also "Monte Verde; thick woods. 

 Epiphytal. Calyx and cor. green, speckled with purple or dark red. 

 Labellum white, with a few pink specks." (644.) 



This might be placed almost equally well at the end of the Spathian 

 Epidendrums, because of its herbaceous spathes ; but their abrupt 

 transition into bracts, and the lip of the species, lead me rather to 

 refer it to Amphiglots.
