BULBOPHYLLUM BALFOURIANUM.—A very remarkable species, closely 
resembling B. Fletcherianum in habit and in the peculiar glaucons leaves, 
but the flowers quite different in shape, the dorsal sepeal being ovate, acute, 
and about r4 inches long, the lateral sepals longer and somewhat falcate at 
the apex, and the petals shorter and distinctly crenulate. The plant bore a 
very short inflorescense of three large flowers, closely dotted with purple-red
