lu short, as with Ocelogyne nitida & Geodorum recurvum, the faulty drawings, all 

 by the same native artist, of the lips (probably in a withered state) have retarded 

 the recognition of otherwise well marked and described species. In this view Mr. 

 Rolfe is disposed to agree with me. 



With regard to Loddige's pulcJiellum, (Bot. Cab. t. 1935, & Bot. Mag. t. 5037),, 

 Rolfe (Grard. Chron. 1887, ii. 155) has shown that it is a Chinese plant (J). Loddigesii, 

 Rolfe), and neither Roxburgh's paZoAeZZwrn nor DewnicmMm. 



P. 745. 137. D. Brtmekianum;. Dr. Trimen has sent me a fine drawing from 

 the Peradeniya Herbarium of a cultivated specimen of D. criniferum, showing that 

 has no affinity with D. Srymerianum, but belongs to the Sect. Oadetia. It is 

 probably a Philippine species, 



P. 746. D. MOTOMEiNEifSB, is perhaps only a Bt&te o{ D. dixanthum. At the 

 end of the specific character add Tc. Plant, t. 2033. 



P. 748. 146. D. CHBTSEUM, as stated at vol. v. p. 751, this name must give place 

 to D. aurantiacum, R.f. 



P. 752. D. HiTGHii. Dele, said to be a form of D. crumenaimn ; and add to species 



TTHKNO'Wir TO ME — 



D. Andebsonii, Scott in Journ. Agrio. Soe. Ind. iii. (1872) 117, from Burma, 

 collected by Dr. J. Anderson in 1868, and described from a plant that flowered in the 

 Calcutta Bot. Gardens, It resembles, according to its author, a dwarfed form of D. 

 formoswm, from which species the description does not enable me to distinguish it. 

 It is stated to be highly aromatic.

4/1. B. PATENS, King mss. ; ?cape very short 1-fld., pedicel longer than the 

 pseudobulb of the elliptic-oblong leaf, flower IJ in. diam,, petals linear-lanceolate 

 and broader lateral sepals widely spreading and falcately decurved, lip shortly 

 stipitate linear-oblong quite straight, column truncate without apical teeth, 



Peeak, Kunstler (lo, in JSeri. Galeutt.) 



Rhisome stout, crinite at the nodes; pseudobulbs l-lj in., ellipsoid. Leaf GS 

 in. by 2-2 J in., acute, narrowed into a short petiole. Scape i-J in., close to the 

 pseudobulb, clothed with short imbricate scales ; pedicel 1^-2 in., yellowish speckled 

 with red j sepals and petals yellowish, closely mottled with red-purple, |-1 in. long, 

 dorsal erect and incurved, linear-lanceolate, lateral ovatu-lanceolate ; lip i in. long, 

 obtuse, base truncate; column very short. — Described from the drawing in Herb. 

 Caloutt., and dried flowers. The straight lip is remarkable in the genusi and 

 distinguishes it from B. macranthum.
