FEBRUARY, 1911.] THE ORCHID REVIEW. 6x 
ORCHIDS IN SEASON. 
THREE pretty Odontoglossums are sent by Messrs. Charlesworth & Co., 
Haywards Heath. O. Cravenianum is a charming hybrid from O. 
cirrhosum and O. ramosissimum, in which the very undulate character of 
the latter is well retained. The flowers are white, copiously blotched with 
purple. It was figured at page 113 of our last volume. O.. Sabina was 
derived from O. Edwardii x O. luteopurpureum, and is comparable with 
OQ. Thompsonianum in general character, but the colour is very deep 
brown-purple, with lilac-coloured tips to the segments, and a yellow rather 
more spiny crest. The last is a very distinct form of the variable O. Ceres 
(Rolfeze X Rossii), having a light yellow ground-colour, with many dark 
brown spots on the sepals and on the basal half of the petals, while the lip 
is white, suffused with rose, and with a few brown spots at the base. 
Several interesting Orchids are sent from the collection of John 
Leemann, Esq., Heaton Mersey, by Mr. S. Smith, including the fine 
Paphiopedilum Minos Youngii, P. Calypso Froebelii, having the dorsal 
sepal much suffused with purple and a dark median band, P. aureum Hero, 
a pretty yellow and white form. P. a. CEdippe, showing much of the 
Spicerianum character, but with much purple suffusion on the dorsal sepal. 
P... Harri- Leeanum, Park Lodge var., a good bold form, P. Thompsoni, 
most like a fine Lathamianum, P. insigne Leo, a yellow form with large 
indistinct blotches on the dorsal sepal, P. i. Heaton var., a large well- 
blotched form, and a form of P. Atys (venustum X Hookere). The 
flowers are finely developed, and illustrate well the utility of the group for 
winter flowering. 
A hybrid from Cattleya labiata X Leeliocattleya Adolphus is sent from 
the collection of W. R. St. Quintin, Esq., Scampston Hall, Rillington, by 
Mr. F. C. Puddle. The sepals and petals are buff yellow with a little 
purple suffusion, and the lip nearly entire, undulate, with a rich crimson- 
purple front lobe and a yellow throat. The spike bears two flowers at 
present, and is evidently undeveloped. A Paphiopedilum of unknown 
parentage is also sent, which has mostof the characters of a good P. insigne. 
LATINISING PERSONAL NAMES.—The rule for Jatinising modern personal 
names adopted by. the International Botanical Congress held at Vienna, in 
1905, reads as follows :— 
XI. When a specific name is taken from the name of a man, it is 
formed in the following way :— 
(a2) When the name ends in a ‘vowel, the letter 7 is added (thus, Glaziout 
from Glaziou, Bureaui from Bureau), except when the name ends in a, 
when ¢ is added (thus, Balans@ from Balansa).
