L. LANIPES, Lindl. — A very free-flowering kind. In its habit of growth 

 it is similar to L. costata. The flowers are large, produced in great quantities, 

 pale green or greenish-white, with the lip of the same colour, its oblong obtuse

 a most profuse bloomer during autumn, yielding many dozens of flowers, which 

 are very useful for cutting, and last for a long time in perfection. — Guayaquil.

 L. Scliilleriana and L. macrophylla. The pseudobulbs are ovoid, compressed ; 

 leaves deep green, lanceolate, plicate ; sepals narrow acuminate, greenish 

 outside, velvety-brown inside; petals and lip golden yellow, spotted with 

 purple. — GiM-tenuda.
