 which the flowers are produced. Leaves ovate, fleshy; the flowers are rather 

 small creamy-white, with an orange-yellow crest in the throat. A plant of this 

 curious species was exhibited by the Horticulture Internationale before the Royal 

 Horticultural Society, on October 24th, 1893. — Burmah : Malay Archipelago.

 ing, 1 to 2 feet long, with flat lanceolate acuminate leaves, and at the nodes 

 opposite the leaves short racemes of two or three flowers, which are white, except 

 a few reddish-purple streaks on the erect lateral lobes of the lip, and a tuft of
