This 1 most beautiful plant is ‘ati a nearly allied to D. nae 
Rich., but is et eugeis shed by arger flowers, describe d by 
Forbes as rich ¢ m-white, th a cream-yellow lip veined ai 
purple, by the piakew ds petals and sepals, and the strong-curved 
tooth at the base of the lips in the centre, arising from a short keel. 
The edges of the lips at the extreme base are abruptly turned im, so 
as to make a kind of pouch. What appears to be the same plant in 
fruit was collected in the Island of Jobie, — Bay, by Mr. 
Barclay ; and cone 4 BT obtained in N.W. New Gumes, at 
collector as yellow. The flowers of the D. macrophyllum are usually 
oat: with purple markings. It is much to be hoped that we may 
n have e ¢ in cultivation.
