BATEMANIA PERUVIANA, Rolfe.—A Peruvian species introduced by 
Messrs. F. Sander & Co. in March last. The sepals and petals are brown, 
with green tips, and a few irregular green lines below, and the column and 
lip white, with innumerable minute purple dots at the base, and a purple 
stain on the front lobe.—Kew Bulletin, 1895, p. 193. 
MAXILLARIA PARVA, Rolfe——A small Peruvian species allied to M. 
pumila, Hook, which flowered in the collection of C. Ingram, Esq., Elstead 
House, Godalming, in May, 1890, when it was presented to Kew, and has 
since flowered annually in the collection. It was found in a clump of 
Sophronitis grandiflora. The flowers are yellow.—Kew Bulletin, 1893, 
P- 194- 
LurstA CANTHARIS, Rolfe.—A remarkable species introduced from the 
Shan States, Upper Burma, by Messrs. Hugh Low & Co., with whom it 
flowered in June last. The lip is almost exactly like a beetle of the genus 
Cantharis, with corrugated dull purple elytra. The lateral sepals are light 
green, witha purple margin, and clasp the lip on either side.—Kew Bulletin, 
1895, p- 195. 
ANGR&CUM STYLOSUM, Rolfe.—A striking Madagascar species intro- 
duced by Messrs. F. Sander & Co., with whom it flowered in July, 1893. 
It has the habit of the African A. apiculatum, Hook., with flowers nearly 
twice as large, and an unusually large column. The long spur is tinted 
with light brownish buff, and the rest of the flower white.—Kew Bulletin, 
18095, p- 196. 
NoTyLia BREVIS, Rolfe.—Introduced from the Andes by Mr. F. C. 
Lehmann, and flowered in the collection of Sir Trevor Lawrence, Bart., in 
March last. It is allied to N. micrantha, Lindl., but differs in its very 
short racemes. The flowers are nearly white, with a stain of yellow on the 
petals.—Kew Bulletin, 1895, p. 196. 
PELEXIA SACCATA, Rolfe.—A Guatdnalan species, introduced by Messrs. 
F. Sander & Co., with whom it flowered in May last. It is near P. 
maculata, Rolfe. The leaves are light green, irregularly blotched with 
olive green, and a darker band along the midrib, which is light reddish 
purple underneath. The sepals are green, and the petals and lip whitish. 
—Kew Bulletin, 1895, Pp. 197. 
CATASETUM FEROX, Kranzl.—A species which recently flowered with 
Messrs. F. Sander & Co. The sepals and petals are green, the latter 
spotted with purple, and the lip is compared to a lower jaw with a 
prominent chin and teeth. Its affinity is not stated.—Gard. Chron., Sept. 
oo 22. 
MASDEVALLIA LAWRENCE, Kranzl. in Gard. Chron., Sept. 21, p. 324.— 
This is Masdevallia guttulata, Rchb. f. (Linnea, xli., p. 118), unfortunately 
described again, and therefore takes rank as a synonym.
