NNUMERABLE are the _ varieties — so-called — of Odontoglossum 
| crispum that have been figured, but we add one more to the series, 
namely O. c. The Angel, which flowered in the collection of De Barri 
Crawshay, Esq., Rosefield, Sevenoaks. The photograph here reproduced 
was taken in October, 1905, and sent later by Mr. Crawshay. It is a 
flower of excellent shape, as to which the figure may be left to speak for 
itself, and Mr. Crawshay records the colour as white, with the exception 
of a little rose flush on the backs of the sepals and brown on the column, 
Fie. 6. ODONTOGLOSSUM CRISPUM VAR. THe ANGEL. 
We cannot say whether the 
while the spotting on the segments is brown. 
locality of the variety is known, but it is not mentioned in a paper on the 
geography of these varieties written by Mr. Crawshay soon afterwards (see 
O.R., xiv. pp. 193-196). We are inclined to refer it to the Chiquinquira 
type of crispum, for we have seen forms approaching it from this region, 
and we should place it in the chain of varieties which connects ©, 
Fascinator with O. crispum, a series which can be traced back through
