2 THE ORCHID REVIEW. 
des Orchidées, containing life-like portraits of thirty beautiful Orchids. On 
looking them through we find that the plant figured and described as 
Phalzenopsis Esmeralda, Rchb. f., is P. rosea, Lindl., a very different species, 
while that figured at Lycaste candida, Lindl., is L. leucantha, Klotzsch. 
In the accompanying Chronique Orchidéenne for June, we find a brief note 
about the Hartwegia Kienastii, described in these pages apparently three 
months later, which we think M. Cogniaux should have kept for his October 
number. It is rather instructive in connection with the priority question. 
We also observe the record of a hybrid between Brassavola Perrinii and 
Cattleya guttata, exhibited at Paris on July 28th last by M. Mantin, under 
the name of Correyonia x bellaerensis, a name which might very well have 
been suppressed, for at the end of the description it is very properly pointed 
out that it should be Brasso-cattleya xX bellaerensis. It is important that 
the multiplication of useless synonyms should be checked as far as possible. 
A very fine flower of Paphiopedium x Murillo var. Cyris is sent from 
the collection of Norman C. Cookson, Esq., Oakwood, Wylam-on-Tyne. 
It was raised from P. Boxallii atratum % and P. Argus 3, and received a 
First-class Certificate from the R.H.S., in November, 1894. The flower is 
very large, and both the dorsal sepal and petals are handsomely spotted 
with deep purple brown. 
Lelia albida sulphurea, is a very pretty light yellow variety which was 
described by Reichenbach some years ago. A plant of it has now appeared 
in the collection of R. Brooman White, Esq., of Arddarroch. Though so 
different from the type in colour it is quite identical in other respects.

missing petal has grown out into an oblong staminode + inch long.
