1. Ph. caduca Ridl. in Journ. Linn. Soc. XXXI. (1896) 288. — Pseudobulbi 

 elongati, cylindracei, in rhizomate crasso vaginis magnis tecto distantes, diphylli, 5 cm 

 longi, 1,3 cm crassi. Folia in petiolum laminae subaequilongum angustata, lanceolata, 

 cuspidata, coriacea, 15 — 18 cm longa, 2,5 cm lata. Scapus hysteranthus? (ex apice 

 pseudobulbi Ridl.), validus, 20 cm altus, erectus, apice nutans, folia paullo superans, 

 basi longe nudus; rhachis flexuosa, glumis 4 siccis, striatis sub racemo praedita; bracteae 

 lanceolatae, siccae deciduae. Sepala ovata, subacuta. Petala linearia, oblonga, obtusa. 

 Labelli hypochilium saccatum, epichilium planum, oblongo-quadratum, apice bilobum, lobis 

 oblongis obtusis, marginibus lateralibus erosis, nervi 2 elevati in disco hypochilium versus, 

 callis triangularibus applanatis erectis terminati. Gynostemium basi angustum semiteres, 

 alis magnis oblongis. Anthera pyriformis, elongata, rostrata; rostellum longiusculum, 

 suberectum; stigma protensum. — Sepala 1 cm longa. De colore florum nil constat.

Nota. Habitu generali speciebus ex affinitate Ph. imbricatae haud dissimilis, differt tarnen 

 ab illis glumis imbricatis in basi racemi more specierum generis Coelogynes. Labellum omnino 

 illud Pholidotae, hypochilium saccatum et epichilium bilobulum praestans, gynostemium denique 

 bene alatum. Nomen specificum, si bracteis adhibendum, haud feliciter inventum, sunt enim 

 bracteae multarum specierum >caducae«. Scapus e bulbo maturo ori videtur.
