SECTION XI. 
SACCOLABIATAL Rehb. f. 
MOST distinct Section, differing so essentially from the type of MZasdevallia, that 
Reichenbach would have been justified in forming it into another Genus, a course 
which he appears to have at one time contemplated. Many of the plants included in 
it are so extremely variable, and have in consequence received so many names, that it 
is difficult to decide which are species and which varieties. 
12 species and two varieties figured : 
Masdevallia bella Rehb. f. 
Carderi Rehb. f. 
Chestertonii Rehb. f. (=. macrochila Regel.)
