epiphytes with pseudo-bulbs and large flowers. In some species the 
leaves are not produced until after flowering. The petals are narrower 
than the sepals, and the hood-shaped lip has fringed veins. The column 
is broad and membranous, and there are four waxy pollen-masses 
which cohere by means of a granular substance. The hollowed stigma 
is prominent and two-lipped. The species are natives of India and 
the Malay Archipelago, one extending to South China.
