The type of the late C. B. Claeke is preserved in the Her- 

 barium at Kew. I have compared my specimens with the type 

 at Kew and found that they are exactly identical with it. So far as 

 I am aware, the description of this species has not been published 

 before, owing to the untimely death of the eminent authority. 

 The description here given is drawn up from my own specimen, 

 but not from Claeke's type.
