SARCOPODIUM LYONII. 
NE of the most conspicuous characters that separates the genus 
& Sarcopodium from Dendrobium is the contraction of the stems into 
pseudo-bulbs. The accompanying illustration is of Sarcopodium Lyonii 
flowering in the collection of Dr. Heinrich Miller-Aichholz, of Vienna, and 
SARCOPODIUM LYONI, 
although the plant is labelled Dendrobium acuminatum its habit clearly 
denotes that it belongs to the genus Sarcopodium. For many years Sarco- 
podium was considered a section of Dendrobium, but it is now regarded as 
a distinct genus.
