CCELOGYNE. 139 
The sepals and petals are pale ochraceous, and the lip is of a pale brown with four 
elongated spots of dark brown, the column being white, Lindley, after first describing 
this as a Celogyne, finally regarded it as a Panisea, His earlier opinion appears to us 
to be the correct one; for the flowers of this in no way differ from those of a 
typical Cælogyne ; whereas the curious sigmoidly bent narrow claw at the base of 
the lip, so characteristic of Pantsea, is here quite unrepresented. The lip of this nas 
moreover conspicuous sharp side lobes, whereas that of Panisea has no lobes whatever 
and по lamellee. 
Pirate 192.—Celogyne uniflora, Lindl. A plant; of natural size. Fig. 1 a flower, 2 peduncie with 
ts bracts, ovary, column and lip, 3 lip, 4 column with anther in situ, 5 pollinia; ай enlarged.

Pseudo-bulbs coespitose, oval, with a few lax sheaths, smooth, not mottled, "75 to 
1 in. long. Leaf solitary, proceeding from the base of the adult pseudo-bulb, narrowly 
elliptic, acute, tapering to the petiole; the blade 2 to 2:5 in. long and “5 to ‘8 in, broad; 
petiole “75 to 125 in. long, enclosed in tubular imbricate sheaths. Peduncle enveloped 
in the same sheaths as the base of the undeveloped leaf and longer than the latter, 
(often several times longer,) bearing a solitary white flower 2 in. across; floral bract 
about as long as the stalked ovary, broadly obovate-elliptic, very obtuse, convolute, per- 
sistent. Sepals spreading, sub-equal іп length, elliptic-oblong, blunt, the dorsal narrower 
than the lateral pair. Petals spreading, as long as the sepals, oblanceolate, obtuse. 
Lip sub-reniform, cordate at the base, broad and entire in its posterior half, narrowed, 
lobulate and minutely erose in its anterior, the apex retuse, the disc with five to seven 
slender ciliate ridges from the base nearly to the apex. Column long, curved, broadly 
winged in its upper half, the wings widening to the truncate erose apex. Pollinia 
obliquely elliptic. Bot. Mag., t. 6388; Hook. fil. Fl. Br. Ind. V, 842. 
Sikkim, at elevations from 7,000 to 11,000 feet; in flower during May and June; 
Thomson, Watt, Gammie, Gamble; Pantling, No. 313. Kumaon; Collett, No. 160. 
In the Sikkim plant the sepals and petals are white flushed with violet, the lip 
is also white with a large spot of yellow with dull reddish-mottlings. The sepals 
are, however, figured in the Botanical Magazine (t. 6388) as pale violet tipped with 
dark violet. In this, as also in all the members of this section (except C. Hvokeriana), 
the leaves are deciduous and are absent at flowering time. 
Prate 193.—Celogyne Hookeriana, Lindl. A plant; of natural size, Fig. 1 lip flattened out, 
2 column and anther, 3 а floral bract, 4 anther, 5 pollinia; ak enlarged.

Pseudo-bulbs coespitose, narrowly ovoid, tapering to the apex, partly enveloped by 
fibrous sheaths; length 1:25 to 1°75 in. Leaves membranous, elliptic, acute, tapering to 
the base, sessile; length 3 to 4 in., breadth 1:15 to 14 in. Peduncle from the base of 
the pseudo-bulb and about the same length, enveloped to the apex in tubular pale 
sheaths with pink striae, l- rarely 2-flowered. Flowers 2 to 2:5 in. in diam., white. 
bract obovoid-elliptic, obtuse, convolute, pale purple, longer than the stalked ovary, 
persistent. Sepals sub-equal, spreading, oblong, acute; the pedals narrower, obtuse,
