Supplement j #c.] CXLVIII. ORCHIDE^E. (J, D. Hooker.) 181 



JTNTEA HILLS, north of Silhet, alt. 3000 ft., Mann. 



Stem 3-4 in. Leaves alternate, 1 in. long, |- in. at the base. Spike 2 in. j 

 flowers ^ in.. broad, green; sepals rounded-ovate, obtuse; petals obtuse, nerveless; 

 side lobes of lip decurved, terminal segments diverging or dependent. Capsules 

 minute, shortly pedicelled. Habit of 0. angustifolia, which has more obtuse shorter 

 leave?, an obcordate midlobe and linear-oblong side lobes of the lip. It would be 

 better to transfer angustifolia and place it with Mannii, in the broad petaled division 

 with a 3-lobed lip. 



P. 681. 23. 0. PACHYRACHIS, add to habitats Khasia Hills, alt. 4-5000 ft.,Mann. 



P. 682. 29. 0. CATTLESCENS, may be easily confounded with 36. 0. angustifo,lia 

 from which the many straight acuminate leaves narrowed to the base, and pedicelled 

 ovaries, at once distinguish it. 



P. 684. 36. 0. ANGUSTIFOLIA, add to collectors' names in the Khasia Griffith, 

 As mentioned under O. Mannii, O. angustifolia had better be referred to the 

 division f 5 at p. 680, and placed next to that plant. 



P. 686. After 40 insert 



41/1. 0. CILIOLATA, Hook, f. ; caulescent, leaves broadly equitant short broadly 

 ensiform obtuse, spike dense-nd., bracts minute lanceolate, sepals ovate acute nerve- 

 less and narrow petals ciliate with long hairs, lip quadrately oblong truncate 

 pectinately irregularly toothed. 



SINGAPORE ; at Krangi, Ridley. 



Stem 1^-3 in., f in. broad across the base of the leaves. Leaves erecto-patent, 

 1-H by - in., straight, rather broadest at the base, not very coriaceous. Scape 

 shorter than the leaves ; spike 2-3 in. ; flowers hardly whorled, ^ in. diam., shortly 

 pedicelled, sparsely hairy externally, as are the bracts and young fruit. Capsules 

 pedicelled, T ^ in. long, turgid, thickly 3-winged. 



After * Sides of the lip produced upwards into large auricles, add (CREPIDIUM, 

 Blume).

 ginea, Don Prodr. *26, fid. Lindl. Gen. fy Sp. Orchid. 458 ; and under habitats, 

 enter PENANG, SINGAPORE, and MALACCA, Ridley in lift. 



P. 691. 22. MICROSTYLIS CRENULATA, Mr. Ridley informs me that the lip is much 

 more rounded than in any other species, that it is a much smaller plant than 

 M. Rheedii, and that it may be a curious form of M. versicolor.

 above the 2-tubercled base cuneately flabelliform beyond the contracted middle trun- 

 cately 2-lobed, lobes fimbriately toothed.

Stem stout, 3-5 in., base swollen; roots stout. Leaves 4-6 in., sessile or con-

26. L. PARADOXA. Mr. Eidley, \vho finds this species at Singapore, informs me 

 that there are two forms, one with pure yellow flowers, the other with the sepals and 

 petals deep blackish -purple, and the lip green with a purple centre, which latter is
