4 THE ORCHID REVIEW. 
Linden, of Brussels. The remarkable Dendrobium hamatum was obtained 
from Cochin China by M. A. Regnier, Fontenay-sous-bois, France. Bifre- 
naria Charlesworthii was imported by Messrs. Charlesworth, Shuttleworth 
and Co., of Heaton, Bradford. Camaridium Lawrenceanum and Polycycnis 
Lehmanni flowered with Sir Trevor Lawrence, Burford, Dorking. The 
showy Epidendrum Ellisii originated with Welbore S. Ellis, Esq., 
Hazelbourne, Dorking; Ccelogyne Mossiz with John S. Moss, Esq., 
Wintershill, Bishops Waltham, and Stanhopea nigripes flowered at Kew. 
The species chiefly of botanical interest flowered at Kew, Glasnevin, with 
Mr. James O’Brien, Harrow-on-the-Hill, Messrs. W. L. Lewis and Co., 
Southgate, and in several of the establishments above named. Others have 
been described as new, and have been mentioned in our pages, but several 
of them have no claim to the title, and others we have not seen, so that the 
record already given must suffice. 
Of natural hybrids two very remarkable ones have appeared, namely, 
Vanda x Charlesworthii with Messrs. Charlesworth, Shuttleworth and 
Co., and afterwards with Messrs. Hugh Low and Co., and Catasetum x 
splendens and its varieties with Messrs. Linden and others, probably from 
the same importation. Cattleya x venosa also appeared with Messrs. 
Linden. Leelio-cattleya x Pittiana is a plant of doubtful origin, which 
appeared with Messrs. F. Sander and Co. 
Striking varieties of natural hybrids already iene which cannot be 
overlooked, are Odontoglossum x Coradinei var. mirabile from the collec- 
tion of Baron Sir H. Schréder, Cattleya x Hardyana Countess of Derby 
from T. Statter, Esq., Dendrobium x Rolfeze roseum with Major-General 
IX. S. Berkeley, and Lelio-cattleya x Schilleriana leucotata, now in the 
collection of R. H. Measures, Esq., who obtained it from Messrs. Linden. 
Several splendid varieties of Odontoglossum crispim have appeared, 
notably those called grande-maculatum, Rex, and Baroness Schréder, at 
The Dell, Egham, Franz Masereel with Messrs. Vervaet and Co., and 
Capartianum with M. A. A. Peeters, some of which were figured in our 
pages. Then the pretty albino, O Rossii immaculatum, in the collection of 
O. O. Wrigley, Esq., must not be omitted, while the varieties of Cattleya 
labiata recorded last-month by us need not be repeated. 
The flowering at Kew of two species of Neuwiedia, the simplest Orchid 
known, and the re-appearance of the female flower of Cycnoches Loddigesii, 
in the collection of H. J. Elwes, Esq., after a lapse of over half a century 
are also among the memorable events of the year. 
We must now pass along to the hybrids, which seem to biscnns more 
numerous each year, and here we find some sterling acquisitions to record, 
among the more interesting, on account of the novelty of the crosses, being 
Sobralia x Veitchii and Sophro-lelia x leta from Messrs. James Veitch 
and Sons; Epilalia x Hardyana and Lelio-cattleya x Frederick ne 2d
