THE ORCHID REVIEW. 13

We next come to a C and a each named 
giganteum, the former from c. x tSallieni Hyeanum 2 and C. X Harrisianum 
3 (O. R., I., p. 316), and the latter from S. caudatum Uropedium ¢ and 
S. X grande ¢ (0. R., III., p. 77). 
The Journal of the Royal Horticultural Society (vol. XVII., p. ccxlvi.) records 
Cypripedium x gloriosum from C. insigne Chantini ¢ and C. xX Io 
grande g, and the Gardeners’ Chronicle (1895, i., p. 200) has one of the same 
name attributed to Hye from C. Lawrenceanum @? and C. X Harrisianum 3 . 
Again we come to a name which has been chosen by hybridists in 
America, on the Continent, and in our own island, viz.: Hebe. Two are 
in all probability the same, the one recorded in the Orchid Review (I., p. 
319) as from C. Hookere Measuresianum ? and C. Lawrenceanum ¢ 
(O. R., I., p. 319), and that of the Gardeners’ Chronicle (1894, ii., p. 318), 
from C. Volonteanum ¢ and C. Lawrenceanum ¢, both coming from R. 
I. Measures, Esq. The American C. x Hebe is, however, quite distinct, 
being from C. Spicerianum ¢ and C. Stonei g (O. R., I., p. 119), while 
that of M. Jules Hye-Leysen is said to be derived from C. Spicerianum and 
C.:X Sallieri (GO. Rey Ti p29)- 
C. x Hera receiyed a First-class Certificate in 1892, being derived from 
C. x Leeanum ? and C. Boxallii ¢, but the name was afterwards changed 
to C. x Adrastus, under which new name it was Certificated in 1894. A 
hybrid from C. Spicerianum ¢? and C. villosum ¢, raised in the collection 
of R. H. Measures, Esq., was previously named C. X Hera by Mr. Rolfe 
(Gard. Chron., 1890, i., p. 105). 
C. x Hermione was the name chosen for my seedling from C. iss 
ianum ? and C. barbatum Warneri 3, and the same name was given by 
M. Jules Hye at a later date to one of his batch of seedlings from C. 
Spicerianum ¢ and C. x Sallieri Hyeanum $ (Gard. Chron., 1895, i., p- 
207). With regard to the first, I am content to adopt the nomenclature C. 
x Eyermanianum var. Hermione (O. R., II., p. 22), while the second 
should undoubtedly be written C. xX aureum, or C. X aureum var. 
Hermione. 
C. x Horneri was raised in the collection of Colonel Marwood from C. 
Boxallii ¢ and C. Argus ¢ (O. R., vol. II., p. 80), and Messrs. Charles- 
worth, of Bradford, have in their catalogue for 1895 C. x Horneri from 
C. Argus x villosum, evidently a mistake, as this is the parentage of C. x 
vernixium. 
I have on my list five Cypripediums and one Selenipedium named X 
hybridum, and I record them here, although I scarcely think hybridum 
should be used as a specific name. We have C. x hybridum from villosum 
@ X barbatum ¢ (Will. Orch. Gro. Man., ed. 7, p. 266); C. X hybridum 
from C. Stonei ? and C. barbatum ¢ (Gard. Chron., 1895, i., p- 201); and
