obtuse. Lip rather thin, the base broad with rounded 

 elevate side lobes, apex acuminate, more'ileshy, three raised 

 veins run on the disc between the lobes from a horse-shoe- 

 shaped callus at the base. Column short, stelidia subulate, 

 foot adnate to sepals, apex only shortly free. 

 This is allied to B. montigenum, Ridley, and B. oblanceolatum. 

 King, of the Pahang and Perak hills, differing in the shorter 

 lanceolate ovate sepals and the large foliaceous bract on the 

 scape.

117. Eria (Trichotosia) pyrrhotricha, sj). nov. 



A tall stout plant with the appearance of E. vestita, Lindley. 

 Stems, 1 cm. in diameter densely red-hairy. Leaves with 

 red-hairy sheaths, 2 cm. long, lamina lanceolate acuminate 

 hairy, 9 cm. long, 2.5 cm. wide with 3-7 nerves. Racemes 

 pendulous flexuous red-hairy, 9 cm. long, basal bract ovate 

 amplexicaul pale coloured, 1 cm. long, floral bi'acts remote 

 lanceolate acuminate, 1.3 cm. long. Ovary sessile, haiiy. 

 ►Sepals, upper one lanceolate, 1 cm. long, lower ones trian- 

 gular ovate, falcate, hairy base gibbous, 1 cm. long. Petals 

 linear oblong, tip rounded glabrous, 3-nerved rather short ; 

 lip obcuneate, 3-lobed margins denticulate, lobes bi'oadly 

 rounded with several elevated veins papillose on the disc, 

 mid lobe rounded not wider with lines of papillae on it. 

 Column at the tip quadrate with a large stigma. 



This plant has been confused with Eria ferox, Lindley, 

 hitherto, from which it diifers in the longer acuminate more 

 hairy leaves, longer raceme of flowers, large lanceolate 

 bract, and much larger, more remote flowers. It has, in 

 fact, much more of the habit of Eria vestita. It has 

 previouly been collected by Curtis (No. 1,325), King's 

 Collector (3,360), at the top of the Larut Hills, and 

 Scortechinii (366 6), probably in the same locality.
