5. EULOPHIA SANGUINEA, Hook. fil Fl. Br. Ind. V, 8. 
Rhizome horizontal, fleshy, 1:5 to 2'in. thick. eaves unknown. Scape 6 to 18 іп, 
long, bearing several loose sheaths. Raceme 4 to 8 in. long and bearing six to twenty-five 
flowers 1°5 in. across; foral brací linear, nearly as long as the stalked ovary, deflexed. 
Sepals elliptic-oblong, sub-acute. Petals shorter than the sepals, obovate-oblong, the apex 
blunt, sub-apiculate, or sometimes notched. Lip about as long as the petals, oblong; the 
side lobes large, erect, truncate at the apex; the apical lobe ovate-triangular, obtuse, the 
edges undulate, ће dise between the side lobes with two granular lamelle; the base sub- 
calcarate and projecting. Column long, its foot broad, with dilated sides. Anther 2-lobed 
at the apex and with a small projection on the lip. Pollinia transversely ovate-orbicular, 
the caudicle rather thick, the gland broad and thin. Cyrtopera sanguinea, Lindl. in

"The flowers are of an almost uniform dull brown, slightly streaked, Leaves of this 
have never been observed, and it is doubtful whether any are ever produced. None of 
the rhizomes collected and dried by Mr. Pantling showed any marks of having ever 
produced leaves; and on eight living plants under observation since May 1895 no leaves 
had appeared up to 1897, although the tubers were still alive. In the excellent figure of 
this plant in the Botanical Magazine (t. 6161) the lip is represented as white with pink 
‘markings and the calcarate base of the lip as green; and the apical lobe of the lip 
is described as 3-carinate at the base, the sepals and petals being represented as 
brownish rather than purple. The species is therefore apparently a variable one,
