MEGACLINIUM UGAND#, Rolfe——Flowered in the Royal Botanic 
‘Garden, Glasnevin, in March, Igi2, and again a year later. It is allied to 
M. endotrachys, Kranzl., but the scape is shorter and the lateral sepals 
more acuminate. The rachis is heavily dotted and marbled with purple- 
‘brown on a light green ground, and the sepals are of much the same colour 
-outside but more green within. The petals are light green, and the lip dull 
purple. The species was obtained from Mr. J. O’Brien as a native of 
Uganda.—Kew Bulletin, 1913, p- 338.

little brown outside the sepals.—i.c., p. 339.

Mabira forest, Uganda, by Mr. E. Brown, and flowered in the collection of 
‘the late Sir Trevor Lawrence, Bart., Burford, Dorking, in March, 1913. 
The flowers are borne in a compact panicle, and are white with a few 
purple streaks on the lip and face of the column. Its climbing habit is 
‘remarkable, the new bulbs being regularly produced above the old one and 
-sending down a strong root, thus recalling a mangrove in habit.—l.c., p. 339

which flowered in the collection of Mr. James Bush, of Cardiff, in March, ~ 
1913. It is allied to P. golungensis, Rchb. f., and has deep yellow flowers:
