August issue. Odontonia Lucilia, derived from Odontoglossum cirrhosum 
and Miltonia spectabile Moreliana, is another interesting hybrid of the 
same firm, which secured an Award of Merit and a Certificate of 
Appreciation. Oncidioda Mauricei is a very distinct and striking hybrid 
raised by M. Henri Graire, Amiens, France, from Oncidium tigrinum 
crossed with the pollen of Cochlioda vulcanica, and has almost entirely 
the habit of the former, but the sepals and petals of a peculiar red-purple 
with a primrose-yellow lip. It received an Award of Merit on May 5th. 
Odontocidium southgatense was raised by Messrs. Hassall & Co., from 
Odontoglossum Edwardii and Oncidium macranthum, and has not yet 
reached its full development. Odontoglossum Sandhurstianum was raised 
by Messrs. Armstrong & Brown, from O. coronarium and O. Edwardii, and 
is most like the former in shape, with a much modified colour. 
Cymbidium Dryad, raised by Sir George L. Holford from C. insigne and 
€. Parishii Sander, is likely to develop into a good thing. 
Calanthe Branchii, shown by C. J. Lucas, Esq., represents the third 
successful attempt to unite the evergreen and deciduous Calanthes, the 
parents in this case belng C. Textoni and C. Wm. Murray, a Certificate of 
Appreciation being awarded. Brassocattleya Rex, derived from Cattleya 
Rex and Brassavola Digbyana, is a very distinct hybrid which was shown 
by W. Burkinshaw, Esq. Sophrocattleya November, shown by J. Gurney 
Fowler, Esq., is a handsome hybrid from Cattleya Portia and Sophronitis 
grandiflora, which received an Award of Merit. Odontioda Zenobia, shown 
by F. M. Ogilvie, Esq., was derived from Odontioda Charlesworthii and 
Odontoglossum percultum, and is one of the best of a series of secondary 
hybrid Odontiodas which have appeared during the year, receiving a First- 
class Certificate in March last. O. Doris and O. Sybil, from the collection 
of Mrs. Norman Cookson, have obtained Awards of Merit. Odontonia 
Magali-Sander var. xanthotes is a very interesting albino, raised in the 
collection of O. O. Wrigley, Esq., from Miltonia Warscewiczii xanthina 
and Odontoglossum armainvillierense album. A plant shown by Messrs. 
Charlesworth & Co. received an Award of Merit. 
SPECIES. 
Among species a noteworthy event was the flowering of Oncidium 
Leopoldianum in the collection of H. S. Goodson, Esq., in July last, 
when it received an Award of Merit from the R.H.S. The event has been 
anticipated for over twenty years, but the few plants originally introduced 
either refused to flower or proved incorrect, and the present one came out 
of a later importation by Mr. H. A. Tracy. Its history and a figure 
appeared at page 345 of our last volume. Another event was the flowering 
of the remarkable Bulbophyllum Fletcherianum, a New Guinea species
