ODONTOGLOSStTM GLORIOSUM. 



0. Graleottianum, A. Pdch. — This plant is nearly allied to 

 0. nehulosum, and also in its growth and its pseudobulbs 

 resembles O. Cervantesii, so that it may possibly be a hybrid 

 between these two species. The flowers are produced in short 

 racemes, and are white, with the exception of the petals, which 

 are transversely barred with brown at the base ; the triangu- 

 lar subcrispate lip is white, with a few streaks of yellow near 

 the base, and having a three-lobed white callus. It is still a 

 rare plant. — Mexico.
