C. DAYANA, BcUh. f. — In this species the pseudobulbs are long, narrow, 

 pyriform, with stalked oblong acuminate leaves. The long pendulous inflo- 

 rescence bears nearly two dozen flowers, the sepals and petals are ligulate- 

 acute, and the lip broad, three-lobed. The colour is a light ochre-yellow, 

 with numerous dark brown collateral longitudinal broad stripes on the lateral 

 lobes of the lip, and on the same light ochre ground a crescent-shaped half 

 ring of dark brown, opening towards the base on the middle lobe; two 

 plaited keels run from the base of the lip to the base of the mid-lobe, where 

 they are divided into six similar keels, covered with the most lovely denticulated 

 undulations. It flowers during the summer months. — Borneo.

C. ELATA, Lindley. — This is a very old species, introduced some fifty years 

 ago, but it is nevertheless a real beauty. The flowers, which are of medium size 

 and drooping, are borne in erect racemes, which spring with the sword-shaped 

 striated leaves from the apex of the tall oblong angulate pseudobulbs, and have 

 the sepals and petals narrowish pure white, and the lip white with a forked 

 yellow band in the centre, and two longitudinal deep orange crisped crests on 

 the disk. It is found at an altitude of 8,000 to 9,000 feet on the slopes of Tongoo, 

 near Darjeeling. It flowers during April and May, and should be grown in the 

 cool-house. — North India.
